Songs that have reminded you of your life.

[Sparky]

Everybody has had one once in their life. What is yours and why?
Here is mine. (basically all of this song was me when i was younger let me show you.

[Verse #1]
These ideas are nightmares for white parents
Whose worst fear is a child with dyed hair and who likes earrings

Mum told me she would kill me if i ever got my any piercings or dyed my hair

Like whatever they say has no bearing
Its so scary in a house that allows no swearing
To see him walking around with his headphones blaring
Alone in his own zone, cold

Swearing in my house was a big NO NO there was no exception when i was a kid if i ever swore I would recieve five smacks to the bare arse. the only way i could ever listen to rap or any song that had even one swear word in it was through my walkmen then discmen.

and he dont care
He's a problem child, what bothers him all comes out

Growing up i had alot of problems with Shit, I know everybody has them in someway or another but its just anotherway this song reminded me so much of me

When he talks about his fuckin' dad walkin out
Cos he hates him so bad that he blocks him out
But if he ever saw him again, he'd prolly knock him out

I remember the day my dad left, it for a while destroyed me.

His thoughts are whacked, he's mad so he's talkin' back

All of my report cards during primary school would say something along the line of "intelligent kid just has a problem with Authority and always talks back.

Talkin black, brainwashed from rock and rap
He sags his pants, 2 rags and a stocking cap

Sadly I did go through the Wigga stage, baggy pants ect. no rags or stocking caps though. (prolly only cos i couldnt find where to buy them lol)

His step-father hit him so he socked him back
And broke his nose,

Prolly the most part of this song that is just like me. Fuck i got in trouble for doing that. but he did deserve it.

this house is a broken home
There's no control, he just lets his emotions go
Come on...

I have no idea how many times i was sent home for fighting becouse i snapped. It was the only way i knew how to express how i was feeling when i was down or angry.

This song even to this day now i have grown up and have changed completly still reminds me of my youth. I have outgrown Eminem and dont like most songs of his due to overplaying them. but I still love this song.

Well guys thats mine what is yours.? dont forget to explain why.

I'm going to say Welcome To My Life related to my life about four years ago.

Do you ever feel like breaking down?, Do you ever feel out of place?
Like somehow you just don't belong, And no one understands you

I had to control myself so much to hold all my emotions inside and not show how depressed I was and it didn't seem like I fitted in anywhere

Do you ever wanna run away?, Do you lock yourself in your room?
With the radio on turned up so loud , That no one hears you screaming

I used to always just listen to one of my CDs in my room for about one hour each night and my family kept on telling me to turn it down while I was singing along.

No you don't know what it's like, When nothing feels all right
You don't know what it's like, To be like me

I felt as if I was different to everyone else and that nobody knew the real me, not even my friends or family.

To be hurt, To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down, To feel like you've been pushed around

It seemed like everyone always picked on me and they kept on picking on me and that everyone left me out of everything.

To be on the edge of breaking down, And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like, Welcome to my life

No one knew how it was to be me back then. Nobody knew how it was to be breaking down on the inside but not showing it on the outside. And nobody could help me as nobody knew about it.

There's no song that really reminds me of my entire life, but rather a time in my life, the song was Ticket Outta Loserville by Son Of Dork. The time in my life was after I got dumped. The lyrics are like this.

Like the guy from Groundhog Day, just wanna live forever this way.

I wanted to live each day that I was with her over and over again because I was the happiest I had ever been.

Pinch me, is this real?
I'm on a one way ticket out of loserville

I couldn't believe someone actually liked me and it was like I was in a new world and I was escaping from my old world, 'loserville'.

You blew me out on a Sunday night
You were bored to tears pretending
Knew what you wanted and I'm nothing like the
guy in your happy ending

This is where everything started to go wrong. She eventually got bored of me and cheated and dumped me because I wasn't the guy in her happy ending.

Pinch me, is this real?
I'm on a one way ticket back to loserville

I couldn't believe it, I had been cheated on and I was now back to where I originally was, 'loserville'

Think about her all the time
It's like I never had her valentine
So I guess I better kiss goodbye to my ticket outta loserville

After it ending, I thought about her for a long time and it felt that time went by so quickly with her it was almost like I never had her then I realised I had to just forget about her and my 'ticket outta loserville'.

In the song, loserville represents a place single people are.

Also, those arn't all the lyrics, I didn't feel the need to write about the same lyrics twice and some other lyrics wern't as important.

Bittersweet Symphony by The Verve.

Whenever this song plays, I picture my funeral with this song playing set to a highlight reel of my life. For some reason, this song just seems to personify me. Maybe it's because I have dreams and aspirations. It doesn't depress me either to picture this. It makes me want to celebrate my life that much more. It reminds me that I have more to live for than slaving and wasting away.

The song that semi fits my life is actually another Simple Plan song(oh god how embarassing). The song is called "Perfect", and I always have been pushed by parents, teachers, ministers, ect because I have been smart, well manered, religious, and just a "good kid". It used to feel I could never live up to their expectations and everything I did, I was always told I could do better, so yeah the song rings a bell. Luckily Im a univeristy student who is just as good as I can be and nothing more

Bittersweet Symphony by The Verve.

I'm getting married in a couple of months and my fiancee is having that as she walks down the isle.

Song that reminds me of my life...

Can I choose two songs because my life completely changed after meeting my other half

Before meeting Corina "The Noose" - A Perfect Circle

After Meeting Corina "Umbrealla" - Biffy Clyro (Its a cover of the rhianna song, its completely different to the orginal and puts a whole new meaning on the lyrics)

Bozz
