iv just been downloadin music and came across christina aguileras 'reflection' and suddenly i burst into tears,the words in that song spoke to my heart cos im so anxious and shy heres the words:

Look at me
You may think you see
Who I really am
But you'll never know me
Every day
It's as if I play a part
Now I see
If I wear a mask
I can fool the world
But I cannot fool my heart
Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside

I am now
In a world where I
Have to hide my heart
And what I believe in
But somehow
I will show the world
What's inside my heart
And be loved for who I am

Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me
Why is my reflection
Someone I don't know
Must I pretend that I'm
Someone else
For all time
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside

There's a heart that must be free to fly
That burns with a need to know the reason why

Why must we all conceal
What we think
How we feel
Must there be a secret me
I'm forced to hide
I won't pretend that I'm
Someone else
For all time
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside

Wow, I didn't realise most SAers hide who they are. I don't, at all. if people ask, I tell, in all honesty.
Adam's Song represents me more:

I never thought I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest who'd have known?
I trace the cord back to the wall
No wonder it was never plugged in at all
I took my time, I hurried up
The choice was mine I didn't think enough
I'm too depressed to go on
You'll be sorry when I'm gone

I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside
The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over we'd survived
I couldn't wait till I got home
To pass the time in my room alone

I never thought I'd die alone
Another six months I'll be unknown
Give all my things to all my friends
You'll never set foot in my room again
You'll close it off, board it up
Remember the time that I spilled the cup
Of apple juice in the hall
Please tell mom this is not her fault

I never conquered, rarely came
But tomorrow holds such better days
Days when I can still feel alive
When I can't wait to get outside
The world is wide, the time goes by
The tour is over, I've survived
I can't wait till I get home
To pass the time in my room alone

That song has the same effect on me too Fred... :(

This song relates to me.....(I'm a Big Evanescense fan, this is just one song of many that relates to me!!..ha ha)... :lol:

IMAGINARY

I LINGER IN THE DOORWAY
OF ALARM CLOCK SCREAMING
MONSTERS CALLING MY NAME
LET ME STAY
WHERE THE WIND WILL WHISPER TO ME
WHERE THE RAINDROPS
AS THEY'RE FALLING TELL A STORY

IN MY FIELD OF PAPER FLOWERS
AND CANDY CLOUDS OF LULLABY
I LIE INSIDE MYSELF FOR HOURS
AND WATCH MY PURPLE SKY FLY OVER ME

DON'T SAY I'M OUT OF TOUCH
WITH THIS RAMPANT CHAOS - YOUR REALITY
I KNOW WELL WHAT LIES BEYOND MY SLEEPING REFUGE
THE NIGHTMARE I BUILT MY OWN WORLD TO ESCAPE

IN MY FIELD OF PAPER FLOWERS
AND CANDY CLOUDS OF LULLABY
I LIE INSIDE MYSELF FOR HOURS
AND WATCH MY PURPLE SKY FLY OVER ME

SWALLOWED UP IN THE SOUND OF MY SCREAMING
CANNOT CEASE FOR THE FEAR OF SILENT NIGHTS
OH HOW I LONG FOR THE DEEP SLEEP DREAMING
THE GODDESS OF IMAGINARY LIGHT

I think Christina Aguilera's 'Beautiful' is a great song as well. I'm not afraid to admit that I cried when I heard it.

it's great these songs make you feel something but come on, they SUCK!
They are genetically engineered to make depressives feel loved so they buy crap cd's.

Am I the only one who got that MEMO?

I think most people hide their "inner selfs" because of the mass media that dictates how people have to feel, think, dress, which is actually caused by popstars like Christina Aguilera (and of course the people in the background developing such "products").

hi. im new here
if u r looking for songs i highly recommened you 2 listen 2 the Smiths.
here is a little example from their "how soon is now"

:I am the son
and the heir
of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
of nothing in particular

You shut your mouth
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does

I am the son
and the heir
of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and the heir
of nothing in particular

You shut your mouth
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does

There's a club if you'd like to go
you could meet somebody who really loves you
so you go, and you stand on your own
and you leave on your own
and you go home, and you cry
and you want to die

When you say it's gonna happen "now"
well, when exactly do you mean?
see I've already waited too long
and all my hope is gone

if u like it i have muc more.. :lol:

Well, since this thread has run offtopic anyway, have a try at: Sopor Aeternus - No-one is there

Lyrics:

Now and then I'm scared, when I seem to forget
how sounds become words or even sentences ...
No, I don't speak anymore and what could I say,
since no-one is there and there is nothing to say ...

So, I prefer to lie in darkest silence alone ...
listening to the lack of light, or sound,
or someone to talk to, for something to share ...
- but there is no hope and no-one is there.

No, no, no ...- not one living soul
and there is nothing (left) to say,
in darkness I lie all alone by myself,
sleeping most of the time to endure the pain.

I am not breathing a word, I haven't spoken for weeks
and yet the mistress inside me is (secretly) straining her ears.
But there is no-one, and it seems to me at times
that with every passing hour another word is leaving my mind ...

I am the mistress of loneliness,
my court is deserted but I do not care.
The presence of people is ugly and cold
and something I can neither watch nor bear.

So, I prefer to lie in darkness silence alone,
listening to the lack of light, or sound,
or someone to talk to, for something to share ...
- but there is no hope and no-one is there.

No, I don't speak anymore and what should I say,
since no- one is there and there is nothing to say?
All is oppressive, alles ist schwer,
there is no-one and no-one is there ..

here is another smiths song. its called NEVER HAD NO ONE EVER:

When you walk without ease
On these
Streets were you were raised
I had a really bad dream
It lasted 20 years, 7 months, and 27 days
had no one ever

short but very meaningful 2 me.. 8O

I'm entitled to my opinion, this IS a public forum where views are shared and discussed.

And furthermore and never said you were a depressive, i said they market songs at depressives.

You ARE a tad touchy though.
