CompassionateArrow February 7th

Here's a little icebreaker for y'all! 🥶(hehe)

What's your favorite lyric from a song? And how does it make you feel?

dance-music.gif



Here is one of my favorites: 

I have climbed highest mountains
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you
I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

~ I still haven't found what I'm looking for: U2

Well haha in the name of a lyric I have an entire verse right here! But yes, the entire verse- no, the whole song, has beautiful and extremely touching lyrics.

I've looked everywhere, but I still haven't found what I'm looking for; these words remind me of my constant search for my desired destiny. The destiny I crave for. I will climb the highest mountains, run through the fields, do everything I can, just to unite with that destiny I've been looking for, for so long. But I still haven't found, what I'm looking for.

The song speaks of a person, but to me, these lines in particular, reminds me of my life, and the main character- myself.



What's your favorite lyric and how does it make you feel?😃

Building collapse, pressure outweighs the pain
I don't feel sad, i don't feel anything
Only will when the blood returns
I'd rather be numb than know how bad i'm hurt
So i'll keep the tourniquet on
I'll block it out and off
Cuz i don't need anyone, i don't need anyone
I don't need anyone at all
If i keep the tourniquet on
Touriquet by Leanna Firestone. 
Fun-fact : i was one of the first people to ever hear this song, i got to hear her performed it live pre-release

This is an English translation of the chorus of one of my favourite Ukrainian songs Ріка життя (River of life)

You run, run river, take me to the blue sea

 Give me strength to overcome all steep rapids

 And tell me: where does my destiny live?

 But lead, lead forward, swift boat of my hope

 Let it float to where my bright dreams will come true

 And bring us to the place where we are loved and waited for!

It's so beautiful, it's saying yes life is heard, it's like a river carrying us towards the end but I will not fight it, I will swim. Hope will give me strength to make it through! There's a strong spiritual element to it. I can't listen to it without crying, not from sadness but from relief. It's so powerful. It's just not available in English.

Oh GC, these lyrics, they're beautiful, powerful.. i believe it wouldn't feel as strong if it was in English as the artist has expressed themselves in their native language; when you express yourself in your native language, it comes out in it's pure form- the emotion, it feels stronger and these lyrics, they are so magical, I'm sure that if a person who knows the Ukrainian language listens to this, they're going to feel every inch of it. Thank you so much for sharing this today buddy, this is wonderful..💖

I love the light from disturbed. Here is a part of the lyrics. It always makes me feel encouraged and gives me strength when I need it 😊🔦

When you think all is forsaken

Listen to me now (all is not forsaken)

You need never feel broken again

Sometimes darkness can show you the light

An unforgivable tragedy

The answer isn't where you think you'd find it

Prepare yourself for the reckoning

For when your world seems to crumble again

Don't be afraid, don't turn away

You're the one who can redefine it

Don't let hope become a memory

Let the shadow permeate your mind and

Reveal the thoughts that were tucked away

So that the door can be opened again

Within your darkest memories

Lies the answer if you dare to find it

Don't let hope become a memory

When you think all is forsaken

Listen to me now (all is not forsaken)

You need never feel broken again

Sometimes darkness can show you the light

It's that person who will be with you through anything you're going through and will be there to support you. Thank you so much for sharing this with us Cat.. ❤️❤️❤️

Favorites change quite a lot for me over time. However, these days, it's the refrain from curious/furious by Willow.

Getting over it now and I
Never wear a frown
Because life doesn't choose either side
Win or lose, right or wrong
It's a battle that's all in your mind
You better open wide

This bit always reminds me that the world is more complicated than only good or bad, black and white. It's my head that gets stuck in that easy kind of thinking a lot of times. Instead, the song reminds me that being open to new opportunities and keeping an open mind is what life is about.

Hi Arrow! 😊 ❤️ This is such a great forum post! Thank you so very much for tagging me! 

I must say, I really love music and so many lyrics highly resonate with me. Something that I have found to be incredibly poignant is from a Prince song "If somebody hurt you, would you run to me, even if the somebody was me"? 

Wow! 😳 Really speaks to me about a good relationship and whatever type of "ship" it may be. There would be a lot of trust there, confidence that the other party was highly invested in your well being and feelings...the other party being open to hearing you, responding instead of reacting. 

*high fives* 😊 and *hugs* ❤️

So why then has all my life made no sound

Why are your eyes closing even now


From the song 'Shameful Metaphors' by Chevelle. I like it because it helps me think and feel deeply and critically about why others or I seem to be so blind to the suffering of others and are grasping so much at control when a breath or cookie would do. It breaking my heart in the best way...letting the light through.

Isn't it fascinating and intriguing at the same time that music affects our thinking so much?

Wake up calls, reality checks and sometimes even the company we need. Music indeed is a form of therapy. 

These lyrics are very strong Pond, and the impact it has on you must be so intense.. Im so glad you shared it with us today😊

It truly is! I was just thinking about that the past few days.

Indeed it is...and quite a benign therapy at that; no side effects, appointment time needed or assembly required (beyond the scope of one's mind.).

Thanks arrow - I'm deeply gratified and humbled by your words and this interaction. 😊

Mhm exactly.. it's accessible to everyone and it's an ocean with no islands where one can float forever and ever and ever.. Unlike other oceans, this one poses no threat to you.. That's the beauty of it.. You just float.. But sometimes it can also make you fly.. Music has the capability to make you feel euphoric when nothing in this world can. It gives you the hope and support you'll always need.. 

It's something I happen to contemplate a lot about. And I'm never tired of it.. 

I'm glad you share similar thoughts on it.. It's lovely to hear from you🫶

“Body doused in ash
With two empty cans of gas
The only evidence they have
Is the police sketch of my mask
And its hardly time to ask
If you can save my heart for last
And its hard to face the facts
When the darkness fades to black
It's not just make believe
When they make me take a seat
And they put amphetamines
In the air and make me breathe
So come on and grab your children
Look out for burning buildings
And villains who pillage
They're killing by the millions
And billions of people die
For a lost cause so now I pray for my nation
destroyed under god”

My favorite lyrics are from the 30th by Billie Eilish

What if it happened to you on a different day?
On a bridge, where there wasn't a rail in the way?
Or a neighborhood street where the little kids play?
Or the Angeles Crest in the snow or the rain?
What if you weren't alone? There were kids in the car
What if you were remote? No one knows where you are
If you changed anything, would you not have survived?
You're alive, you're alive, you're alive

I guess I like these lyrics, because they are reminding me that even if there is nothing stopping me from hurting myself there is probably someone who cares abt me that doesn't want me to do that to myself

ik its not saying it directly, but I'm translating it that way

Lulu, it's scary how true these lines are.. Billie Eilish's songs always have this particular essence of dark reality..

Who says, who says you're not perfect?
Who says you're not worth it?
Who says you're the only one that's hurting?
Trust me, that's the price of beauty
Who says you're not pretty?
Who says you're not beautiful?
Who says?
It's such a funny thing
How nothing's funny when it's you
You tell 'em what you mean
But they keep whiting out the truth
It's like a work of art
That never gets to see the light
Keep you beneath the stars
Won't let you touch the sky

@CompassionateArrow One of mine would have to be the entreatment is here by ajr and the verse I like from it a lot is I used to be distracted by my favorite song

I loved it very much, I made the song my alarm
And now I kind of hate hearing it every morn'
Don't wake up anymore
I don't wanna be bored
I used to be distracted rolling 'round in the dirt
But recently I'm thinking 'bout my purpose on Earth
But I don't wanna think about my purpose no more
Because it may come up short
Man, I hate being bored
I don't know why I relate to it a little bit I have no idea why

Sounds like you've been finding a part of yourself relating to these lines.. It sounds like a life which isn't uncommon and at the same time is very overwhelming. Music has the ability to touch parts of you that you never knew existed. That's how divine it can be.. Thank you so much for sharing this today Lemon.. and I hear you.. Take care of yourself okay? Sending loads of love your way💗💗
