Sometimes the soundtrack can help you through difficult times or help you find the courage you need. Madonna's Jump is a good example or Alanis Morisette's You Oughta Know.

 

What song is getting you through your pain?? What song inspires you? What song gives you strength?

 

What is helping me right now is this brilliant song from Scissors Sisters. It has been on repeat on my stereo and iPod all day :)

 

Scissor Sisters - Kiss You Off

 

You say you see what's under me

That the gloss has washed away

But you're the one whose colour's gone

From love to dirty grey

Questions come alive in the middle of the day

Over and over again

Watch me start a fire in the middle of your shade

That's why I'm telling you I'm gonna

 

Kiss you off my lips

I don't need another tube of that dime store lipstick

Well I think I'm gonna buy me a brand new shade of man

Kiss you off my lips

It's standing room only for a piece of my pigment

So excuse me a minute while I supply demand

Kiss you off these lips of mine

Kiss you off for a custom shine

Pissed yours truly off this time

It's why I ain't just kissin' you I'm kissin' you off

 

Spare this child your sideways smile

That crack in your veneer

Some blue broad will spoil your rod

It just takes patience dear

They rush you for your life

But you'll never beat the game

Older and older you get

Cruch you like gyre

But the gimble's all the same

Oh no I think it's happening

 

Kiss you off my lips

I don't need another tube of that dime store lipstick

Well I think I'm gonna buy me a brand new shade of man

Kiss you off my lips

It's standing room only for a piece of my pigment

So excuse me a minute while I supply demand

Kiss you off these lips of mine

Kiss you off for a custom shine

Pissed yours truly off this time

It's why I ain't just kissin' you I'm kissin' you off

Here's one by Sugarland called Stay.

 

It's an OW song. Heard it last night.

 

I've been sitting here staring at the clock on the wall

And I've been laying here praying, praying she won't call

It's just another call from home

And you'll get it and be gone

And I'll be crying

 

And I'll be begging you, baby

Beg you not to leave

But I'll be left here waiting

With my Heart on my sleeve

Oh, for the next time we'll be here

Seems like a million years

And I think I'm dying

 

What so I have to do to make you see

She can't love you like me

 

Why don't you stay

I'm down on my knees

I'm so tired of being lonely

Don't I give you what you need

When she calls you to go

There is one thing you should know

We don't have to live this way

Baby, why don't you stay

 

You keep telling me, baby

There will come a time

When you will leave her arms

And forever be in mine

But I don't think that's the truth

And I don't like being used and I'm tired of waiting

It's too much pain to have to bare

To love a man you have to share

 

Why don't you stay

I'm down on my knees

I'm so tired of being lonely

Don't I give you what you need

When she calls you to go

There is one thing you should know

We don't have to live this way

Baby, why don't you stay

 

I can't take it any longer

But my will is getting stronger

And I think I know just what I have to do

I know just what I have to do

I can't waste another minute

After all that I've put in it

I've given you my best

Why does she get the best of you

So next time you find you wanna leave her bed for mine

 

Why don't you stay

I'm up off my knees

I'm so tired of being lonely

You can't give me what I need

When she begs you not to go

There is one thing you should know

I don't have to live this way

Baby, why don't you stay, yeah

Honey why you calling me so late?

It's kinda hard to talk right now.

Honey why are you crying? Is everything okay?

I gotta whisper 'cause I can't be too loud

 

Well, my girl's in the next room

Sometimes I wish she was you

I guess we never really moved on

It's really good to hear your voice say my name

It sounds so sweet

Coming from the lips of an angel

Hearing those words it makes me weak

 

And I never wanna say goodbye

But girl you make it hard to be faithful

With the lips of an angel

 

It's funny that you're calling me tonight

And, yes, I've dreamt of you too

And does he know you're talking to me

Will it start a fight

No I don't think she has a clue

 

Well my girl's in the next room

Sometimes I wish she was you

I guess we never really moved on

It's really good to hear your voice say my name

It sounds so sweet

Coming from the lips of an angel

Hearing those words it makes me weak

 

And I never wanna say goodbye

But girl you make it hard to be faithful

IWWH, that song STAY has been playing over and over on my limewire today. It is an awesome song, and sooo sooo true..

For me, this sums it all up! Evanessence-Call Me When You're Sober:

 

Don't cry to me.

If you loved me,

You would be here with me.

You want me,

Come find me.

Make up your mind.

 

Should I let you fall?

Lose it all?

So maybe you can remember yourself.

Can't keep believing,

We're only deceiving ourselves .

And I'm sick of the lie,

And you're too late.

 

Don't cry to me.

If you loved me,

You would be here with me.

You want me,

Come find me.

Make up your mind.

 

Couldn't take the blame.

Sick with shame.

Must be exhausting to lose your own game.

Selfishly hated,

No wonder you're jaded.

You can't play the victim this time,

And you're too late.

 

Don't cry to me.

If you loved me,

You would be here with me.

You want me,

Come find me.

Make up your mind.

 

You never call me when you're sober.

You only want it cause it's over,

It's over.

 

How could I have burned paradise?

How could I - you were never mine.

 

So don't cry to me.

If you loved me,

You would be here with me.

Don't lie to me,

Just get your things.

I've made up your mind.

This on gets to me too...Howie Day-Collide:

 

The dawn is breaking

A light shining through

You're barely waking

And I'm tangled up in you

Yeah

I'm open, you're closed

Where I follow, you'll go

I worry I won't see your face

Light up again

 

Even the best fall down sometimes

Even the wrong words seem to rhyme

Out of the doubt that fills my mind

 

I somehow find

You and I collide

I'm quiet you know

You make a first impression

I've found I'm scared to know I'm always on your mind

 

Even the best fall down sometimes

Even the stars refuse to shine

Out of the back you fall in time

I somehow find

You and I collide

 

Don't stop here

I lost my place

I'm close behind

 

Even the best fall down sometimes

Even the wrong words seem to rhyme

Out of the doubt that fills your mind

You finally find

You and I collide

 

You finally find

You and I collide

You finally find

You and I collide

i've a shocking hunch that stupid lips of an angel song was the warped out reason MM rang me after 4 years...still luv the band and their music tho...

 

Stacey Orricos latest helps me at the moment

 

Been through just about everything,

That i could go through,

When it comes to relationships.

Don't know what i was missing

Or why i ain't listen

When i told myself that was it.

But here i go,

Hurt again.

Cause of my curiosity.

Now that it's over,

What else could it be,

Besides a cheat?

 

I'm not going through emotions,

Waiting and a hoping you call me.

I'm not missin' you.

You mighta had me open,

But i must be goin' because,

I got lots to do.

I know i'm usually hanging on,

I used to hate to see you go.

But this time is different;

I don't even feel the distance.

I'm not missin'; i'm not missin' you...

 

It's a shame in way,

Cause i feel that i may not

Ever find the right one for me.

Did i leave him this year,

Right n front of my face (oh).

Will my love ever be?

Why would i go,

on a search again?

When i know what the

end will be.

What good is love

When it keeps on hurting me?

 

No, i can't be with you

Cause i'm sacred.

Felt like i was falling when you left me.

I can't keep going through life

Unaware of what i'm missing

Or the person that i could be.

Love's good when it's right.

Bad, when it's left in you memory.

All the times, and anytime.

I guess love would be nice for someone, as this life...

I'm not missin' you...

Last one...Blue October-What if We Could:

 

What if we could

Put our lives on

Hold and meet some

Where inside of the world

I would meet you

Would you meet me?

 

2, 3, 4...

 

On a park bench

On a skyscrape

On a mountain

Oh yeah, whatever it takes

I would meet you

Would you meet me?

 

I'm glad to say that we've met

But I'm sad to say that the circumstances weren't

On our side

 

So go on

Go on be your own

Go on be your own star

 

What if we could?

Where would we go?

If it felt right

Would you want me to know

I would meet you

Would you meet me

 

It's like a last chance

For a first dance

You're a sunrise

Can't somehow exist

I would meet you

Would you meet me

 

I'm glad to say that we've met

But I'm sad to say that the circumstances weren't

On our side

 

So go on

Go on be your own

Go on be your own star

 

A simple star in my eyes

In my eyes

 

Look in my eyes

Just look in my eyes

My eyes

My eyes!!!

 

What if we could

Put our lives on

Hold and meet some

Where inside of the world

I would meet you

Would you meet me?

 

On a park bench

On a skyscrape

On a mountain

Oh yeah, whatever it takes

I would meet you

Would you meet me?

 

God I would

God I would

I would meet you

Would you meet me

 

I would meet you

I would meet you

I would meet you

 

Great thread Blueeyes...music was such a big thing between us, sometimes it seemed like these songs were written just for us!!

then..the evil OW part of me likes Avrils latest...

 

So come over here, tell me what I want to hear

Better yet make your girlfriend disappear

I don't want to hear you say her name ever again

 

In a second you'll be wrapped around my finger

Cause I can, cause I can do it better

There's no other

So when's it gonna sink in

She's so stupid

What the hell were you thinking?

 

Hey! Hey! You! You!

I don't like your girlfriend!

No way! No way!

I think you need a new one

Hey! Hey! You! You!

I could be your girlfriend

Before Kiss You Off, I used to cry to this one.

 

If I Were Your Woman

Gladys Knight & The Pips

(Sawyer/McMurray/Jones)

 

If I were you woman

And you were my man

You'd have no other woman

You'd be weak as a lamb

If you had the strenght

To walk out that door

My love would over rule my sense

And I'd call you back for more

 

If I were your woman

If you were my woman

If I were your woman

If you were my woman

If I were your woman

If you were my woman

And you were my man

 

Yeah

She tears you down Darling

Says you're nothing at all

But I'll pick you up Darling

When she lets you fall

You're like a diamond

And she treats you like glass

Yet you make it hard to love you

But Babe don't ask

 

If I were your woman

If you were my woman

If I were your woman

If you were my woman

If I were your woman

If you were my woman

Here's what I'd do

I'd never no, no, no stop loving you

 

Yeah

Life is so crazy

And love is unkind

Because she came first

Will she hang on your mind

You're a part of me

And you don't even know it

I'm what you need

But I'm too afraid to show it

 

If I were your woman

If you were my woman

If I were your woman

If you were my woman

If I were your woman

If you were my woman

Here's what I'd do

I'd never, no, no, no stop loving you

 

If I were your woman

Here's what I'd do

I'd never, never, never stop loving you

If I were your woman

You're sweet lovin' woman

 

If I were your woman

If you were my woman

If I were your woman

If you were my woman

If I were your woman

If you were my woman...

 

...you'd need no other woman

:rolleyes: How about the song "If lovin' you is wrong, I don't wanna be right":rolleyes:

I love this song...

 

[FONT=Arial]This Is Where I’ve Got To Draw The Line

Cause I Refuse To Let You Think You Can Play With My Mind

Always Seems That You Think That I’m Blind

Causes There Always Certain Times When Your Hard To Find

Your On The Go, I’m On The Go, Were On The Go

I Can’t Catch You No More, Can’t See You No More

And It No Longer Can Be Ignored

Cause At Once Upon A Time It Was You I Adored

You Disappeared And Left Me Here, Out In The Cold

And The Absence Of You Is Hurting My Soul

Didn’t Know There Was An End Of The Road

It Was So Easy For You Just To Let It All Go

 

And I Refuse,

I Refuse To Have One More Sleepless Night

I Refuse,

I Refuse To Let A Tear Fall From My Eye

I Refuse,

I Refuse To Continue To Try

I Felt Like I Would Die, If I Could Breakdown And Cry

And I Refuse,

I Refuse To Let You Walk Back Through That Door

I Refuse,

I Refuse To Let You Hurt Me Anymore

And I Refuse,

I Refuse To Continue To Ignore

The Fact I Fell To The Floor, The Day You Walked Out My Door

 

And I Refuse

No Way Baby I Can’t Take It No More

And I Refuse

No Way Baby I Can’t Take It No More

And I Refuse

No Way , But I Refuse

To Take It Anymore

 

Remember When I Told You I Could Feel The Change

You Don’t Touch Me The Same, Don’t Hold Me The Same

No, I Don’t Want You To Take All The Blame

Cause I Know I Had Those Moments When I Caused The Pain

This Back And Forth Just Like A War With You And Me

See We Both Disagree, Have We Ever Agreed?

This Is Nothing Like I Thought It Would Be

Was It All Just A Dream? Was It Ever In My Reach?

 

And I Refuse,

I Refuse To Have One More Sleepless Night

I Refuse,

I Refuse To Let A Tear Fall From My Eye

I Refuse,

I Refuse To Continue To Try

I Felt Like I Would Die, If I Could Breakdown And Cry

And I Refuse,

I Refuse To Let You Walk Back Through That Door

I Refuse,

I Refuse To Let You Hurt Me Anymore

And I Refuse,

I Refuse To Continue To Ignore

The Fact I Fell To The Floor, The Day You Walked Out My Door

 

It Was Your Way

Or It Was No Way

And I Couldn’t Live That Way

It Was Our Call

Then It Was Your Call

Cause I Gave You My All And All

 

And I Refuse,

I Refuse To Have One More Sleepless Night

I Refuse,

I Refuse To Let A Tear Fall From My Eye

I Refuse,

I Refuse To Continue To Try

I Felt Like I Would Die, If I Could Breakdown And Cry

And I Refuse,

I Refuse To Let You Walk Back Through That Door

I Refuse,

I Refuse To Let You Hurt Me Anymore

And I Refuse,

I Refuse To Continue To Ignore

The Fact I Fell To The Floor, The Day You Walked Out My Door

 

No Way I Can’t Take It Baby

No Way I Can’t Take It Baby

No Way, But I Refuse

To Take It Anymore

 

No Way I Can’t Take It Baby

No Way I Can’t Take It Baby

No Way, But I Refuse

To Take It Anymore

 

I Refuse (I Refuse)

I Refuse (I Refuse)

And I Refuse (Ooooh)

 

And I Refuse (I Refuse)

I Refuse (Said I Refuse)

And I Refuse

Said I Refuse To Take It Anymore[/FONT]

Morcheeba - blindfold

 

Three months in here

Can't catch the tears

Time never lands

Our love is all that stands now

Streets feel strange

And longer lives can never change

I'm so glad to have you

And it's getting worse

I'm so mad to love you

And you're evil curse

I feel out of place

Just look at my face

Stuck in the mud

Knee-deep in blood girl

Eyes, blind fold

You never said I'm growing old

I'm so glad to have you

And it's getting worse

I'm so mad to love you

And you're evil curse

I'm so glad to have you

And it's getting worse

I'm so mad to love you

And you're evil curse

Sample: My my my heart is still reliant/very light

Tell them I've gone

And nothing's wrong

In from the past

A sudden blast bang

Spring has gone

And summer keeps on coming on

I'm so glad to have you

And it's getting worse

I'm so mad to love you

And you're evil curse

I'm so glad to have you

And I'm getting worse

I'm so mad to love you

And you're evil curse

I'm so glad to have you

And I'm getting worse

I'm so mad to love you

And you're evil curse

I've a plan to save you from my misery

I'm a man too brave to follow history
