Music is my Therapy

Song: Watch Over Me Artist: Hanson This song is talking about me. I'll break it down some. She wakes and takes her place in line And never bothers to ask why the mirror sheds no light at all The days turn into lesser days until there's only night The light it wouldn't help she's too far gone (Each day I wake up I do the same thing over and over again. Wake up, walk, shower, get dressed, eat, repeat. My life is a broken record. Never going forward. Never getting to that next verse or word or chord. I never think about life or really take a good look at myself to try to figure me out. Each day it seems I do less and less until I'm living with this depression and sadness that nothing can seem to change. There seems to be no light. I'm far away from who I was and who I want to be.) Her time is up it's five o'clock It never stops (I get done with work at 5 every Tuesday. That is freakishly accurate.) And she says please, and sh

Song: Save Me From Myself Artist: Hanson   I'm having a really hard time right now. I just feel so sad and lonely and depressed about life. The other day while I was getting ready, I was thinking about my life and some conversations I had had recently and I just suddenly started crying. I just broke down and cried out some of the feelings I had kept bottled up so tightly inside my heart. It felt good but it was also surprising.   This song, the chorus at least, really applies to my life right now. I'm going to go through each part of the song and describe how it applies to me. If you read this whole thing, thank you. Thanks for listening.     Amelia was always the one for me but she, she wouldn’t stay And on a fine day, I came home to find that she had sailed away  Maybe I am broken, in some way I can say ‘Cause I don’t wanna change but Lord knows that I need some help Won’t you save me from myself   (That chorus. "Maybe I am broken, in some way

  Happy 4th everyone! Hope it's a good day for all who choose to celebrate. I am so thankful to live in a FREE country where I have so many opportunities to be anything and do anything I want to do. I am thankful for the opportunity to vote, to worship freely and to have so many other freedoms of choice. I'm also thankful to the hundreds of men and women who sacrifice so much of their time to fight for our country and our rights. I am thankful for the countless men and women who sacrificed their lives so that we could be free. I am thankful for the past Presidents who worked hard to make this country great. We really are so lucky to be free and to live life the way we choose. I am thankful and PROUD to be an American!     Take it away Hanson!!       "Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light, What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous

Song: Tonight Artist: Hanson   Today is my sweet, little puppy dogs birthday! He is turning the BIG number 10! He is still full of life and energy. I absolutely ADORE my little guy! He has been with me through a lot. I don't know where I would be without him. Honestly. He is my world. So, I just have to dedicate this song to my sweet, sweet boy today.   This song is brilliant. Simply brilliant. It's all about living every day like it's the BEST day ever! Don't wait for tomorrow, make your life the best it can be now. Tonight.   "Don't wait for tomorrow's daylight, cause it just might be tonight."     Tonight is the first night Tonight is the last night Don’t care what has come before Tomorrow’s an open door So box to the ropes and jump in the crowd Throw up your hands and sing it out loud Oh, tonight   Well it might be a shame and you might be disheartened To be back

It's a TWO song kind of day (and p.s. it's NOT Hanson related! Wha?)   Song: Lead Me Artist: Sanctus Real   My sister introduced me to this song a couple weeks ago. She likes to listen to a local Christian pop radio station and she has been showing me a lot of songs that shes liked. I have to say, although this station isn't something I prefer to listen to on a daily basis, it's something I probably should be listening to more often. I have listened to this station before and have actually come across some really inspiring and uplifting songs. That radio station just makes me feel good about life and gives me hope. It also reminds me that there are STILL good people out there!! And it's really refreshing to hear a song about a father who is trying to be better for his family. A father who maybe was a little caught up in himself and his selfish desires but loves and cares about his family enough to make a change. This song is just really sweet
