I'm copying this thread from my friends' guild's forums. The point is to post lyrics and link(s) of the song(s) that apply to you, or desrcibe your personality or your current situation in life somehow. I'll go first.
Machinae Supremacy - Skin http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TUNWPbsgd24
Lyrics:
In the corner of your eye
I can see into your mind
A shadow beneath your smile
Something hidden deep inside
Silently you wait for someone to see you
Claw your flesh from off your bones
Face that fire on your own
Embrace the life you thought that you could never know
Can't erase the pain inside without a storm within
They left the lies like scars underneath your skin
The one your hiding in, the one you're supposed to live in
And you gaze up at the sky
As the clouds are passing by
And you wonder for a while
What it would be like to die
Silently you wish for someone to save you
Claw your flesh from off your bones
Face that fire on your own
Embrace the life you thought that you could never know
Can't erase the pain inside without a storm within
They left their lies like scars underneath your skin
The one you're hiding in, the one you're supposed to live in
But you want to be alive
As the self-loathing subsides
And you will not be denied
So you push their lies aside
Violently you burn for someone to feel you
Claw your flesh from off your bones
Face that fire on your own
Embrace the life you thought that you could never know
Can't erase the pain inside without a storm within
They left their lies like scars underneath your skin
The one your hiding in, the one you're supposed to live in
Ok the message of that song is pretty clear. Having problems, feeling sorrow, maybe thinking of death, but still trying to stand up after getting knocked down by other people. This song applies to me because a couple of the my closest friends have talked to me about suicide and just generally about their problems and asked me for help. I tend to make them listen to this song, as it has been very inspiring to most of people with these problems (including myself). No matter what people say, no matter what they do, don't let go, don't give up, don't let the fuckers win.
