Confused728 Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 i found this new song by bruce springsteen and the lyrics very powerful, the song is called wrecking ball, very insperational wrecking ball lyrics- I was raised out of steel here in the swamps of Jersey, some misty years ago Through the mud and the beer, and the blood and the cheers, I've seen champions come and go So if you got the guts mister, yeah if you've got the balls If you think it's your time, then step to the line, and bring on your wrecking ball Bring on your wrecking ball Bring on your wrecking ball Come on and take your best shot, let me see what you've got Bring on your wrecking ball Bring on your wrecking ball Bring on your wrecking ball Come on and take your best shot, let me see what you've got Bring on your wrecking ball Now my home was here in the Meadowlands, where mosquitoes grow big as airplanes Here where the blood is spilled, the arena's filled, and Giants play the game So raise up your glasses and let me hear your voices call Come on! Because tonight all the dead are here, so bring on your wrecking ball Bring on your wrecking ball Bring on your wrecking ball Take your best shot, let me see what you've got Bring on your wrecking ball Yeah we know that come tomorrow, none of this will be here So hold tight on your anger Hold tight on your anger Hold tight to your anger, and don't fall to your fear Now when all this steel and these stories, they drift away to rust And all our youth and beauty, it's been given to the dust And your game has been decided, and you're burning the clock down And all our little victories and glories, have turned into parking lots When your best hopes and desires, are scattered through the wind And hard times come, hard times go Hard times come, hard times go And hard times come, hard times go Hard times come, hard times go Hard times come, hard times go Yeah just to come again Bring on your wrecking ball Bring on your wrecking ball Come on and take your best shot, let me see what you've got Bring on your wrecking ball Bring on your wrecking ball (bring on your wrecking ball) Bring on your wrecking ball (bring on your wrecking ball) Take your best shot, let me see what you've got, bring on your wrecking ball Link to post Share on other sites
samkat13 Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 There have been a few songs that have been on repeat on my cd player for weeks now and they seem to help me; hope they do some good for you as well!! "..you've really done a number on my soul....but I'll be damned if I ever let you know!.....I'm just a good pretender in a great disguise..." (Martina McBride) "...just thought you were the one; broken up, deep inside.. but you won't get to see the tears I cry behind these hazel eyes..." (Kelly Clarkson) "...I don't know what I saw, but I aint seeing it now. Woke up this morning, bitterness in my mouth. Guess I fell too fast, guess I learned my lesson. So much for true love, I'll take the Chivas instead!..." (Kelly Clarkson) "...Hate myself for loving you. Can't beak free from the things that you do...thats why I hate myself for loving you..." (Joan Jett) ...to name a few!! LOL... hope i helps:-) Link to post Share on other sites

kyta Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 The Four Candles The Four Candles burned slowly. Their ambiance was so soft you could hear them speak. The first candle said, "I am Peace, but these days, nobody wants to keep me lit." Then Peace's flame slowly diminishes and goes out completely. The second candle says, "I am Faith, but these days, I am no longer indispensable." Then Faith's flame slowly diminishes and goes out completely. Sadly, the third candle spoke, "I am Love and I haven't the strength to stay lit any longer. People put me aside and don't understand my importance. They even forget to love those who are nearest to them." And waiting no longer, Love goes out completely. Suddenly . . . A child enters the room and sees the three candles no longer burning. The child begins to cry, "Why are you not burning? You are supposed to stay lit until the end." Then the Fourth Candle spoke gently to the little boy, "Don't be afraid, for I Am Hope, and while I still burn, we can re-light the other candles." With Shining eyes the child took the Candle of Hope and lit the other three candles. Never let the Flame of Hope go out of your life. With Hope, no matter how bad things look and are, Peace, Faith and Love can Shine brightly in our lives. Don't let these candles go out in your life! If you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, march down there and turn it on yourself. The lil' girl in the park" There was this lil' girl one day sitting in the park. Everyone passed and never stopped to see why she looked so sad. Dressed in a worn pink dress, bare foot and dirty, the girl just sat and watched the people go by. She never tried to speak, she never said a word. Many people passed, but never did one person stop. Just so happens the next day I decided to go back to the park, in curiosity, to see if the lil' girl would still be there. Right in the very spot as she was yesterday she sat perched on high, with the saddest look in her eyes. --- Today I was to make my own move and walk over to the lil' girl. For as we all know a park full of strange people is not a place for young children to play alone. As I got closer I could see the back of the lil' girl's dress was obscenely shaped. I figured that was a reason the people just passed by and made no effort to help. Deformities are a low blow to our society and, "so help you" if you make a step toward assisting someone who is different. --- As I got closer the lil' girl slightly lowered her eyes to avoid my intent stare. As I approached her, I could see the obscene shape of her back more clearly. Grotesquely shaped in a humped over form. I smiled to let her know it was ok, I was there to help, to talk. I sat down beside her and opened with a simple "Hello." The lil' girl acted shocked and stammered a "Hi" after a long stare into my eyes. I smiled and she shyly smiled back. We talked till darkness fell and the park was completely empty. --- Everyone was gone and we at once were alone. I asked the girl why she was so sad. The lil' girl looked at me and with a sad face said "Because I'm different." I immediately said "that you are!" and smiled. The lil' girl acted even sadder, she said, "I know." --- "Lil' girl," I said, "you remind me of an angel, sweet and innocent." --- She looked at me and smiled, slowly she stood to her feet, and said, "Really?". "Yes, ma'am, your like a lil' guardian angel sent to watch over all those people walking by." She shook her head yes and smiled, with that she spread her wings and said, "I am, I'm your guardian angel," with a twinkle in her eye. --- I was speechless. Sure I was seeing things. She said, "For once you thought of someone other than yourself, my job here is done." Immediately I stood to my feet and said, "Wait, so why did no one stop to help an angel?". She looked at me and smiled, "Your the only one that could see me, you believe, its in your heart." And she was gone. And with that my life was changed dramatically. We all need someone. Every one of your friends is an angel in their own way. There is a road. No simple highway, between the dawn and the dark of night. And if you go, no one may follow. That path is for your steps alone. Link to post Share on other sites

kyta Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 To "let go" does not mean to stop caring. It means I can't do it for someone else. To "let go" is not to cut myself off. It's the realization that I can't control another. To "let go" is to admit powerlessness, which means the outcome is not in my hands. To "let go" is not to try to change or blame another. It's to make the most of myself. To "let go" is not to care for, but to care about. To "let go" is not to fix, but to be supportive. To "let go" is not to judge, but to allow another to be a human being. To "let go" is not to be in the middle, arranging all the outcomes, but to allow others to affect their own destinies. To "let go" is not to deny, but to accept. To "let go" is not to nag, scold, or argue, but instead to search out my own shortcomings and correct them. To "let go" is not to adjust everything to my desires, but to take each day as it comes and cherish myself in it. To "let go" is not to regret the past, but to grow and live for the future. To "let go" is to fear less and to love more. Link to post Share on other sites

Gingerbooms Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Heart We Will forget him Heart, we will forget him, You and I, tonight! You must forget the warmth he gave, I will forget the light. When you have done pray tell me, Then I, my thoughts, will dim. Haste! ‘lest while you’re lagging I may remember him - Emily Dickinson --------- A Dream Lies Dead A dream lies dead here. May you softly go Before this place, and turn away your eyes, Nor seek to know the look of that which dies Importuning Life for life. Walk not in woe, But, for a little, let your step be slow. And, of your mercy, be not sweetly wise With words of hope and Spring and tenderer skies. A dream lies dead; and this all mourners know: Whenever one drifted petal leaves the tree- Though white of bloom as it had been before And proudly waitful of fecundity- One little loveliness can be no more; And so must Beauty bow her imperfect head Because a dream has joined the wistful dead! Dorothy Parker -------------- The Road Not Taken Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. Robert Frost ----- I have taken great comfort from all your forum posts, lyrics, poems and comments, thanks to all and I hope your hearts mend soon too x Link to post Share on other sites
