This is kind of my mantra right now, I listen to this song alot! and try to make the thought stick!
Depeche Mode Peace
Peace will come to me Peace will come to me
I'm leaving bitterness behind This time I'm cleaning out my mind There is no space for the regrets I will remember to forget
Just look at me I am walking love incarnate Look at the frequencies at which I vibrate I'm going to light up the world
Peace will come to me Peace will come to me
I'm leaving anger in the past With all the shadows that it casts There is a radar in my heart I should have trusted from the start
Just look at me I'm a living act of holiness Giving all the positivity that I possess I'm going to light up the world
Peace will come to me Just wait and see Peace will come to me It's meant to be Peace will come to me Just wait and see Peace will come to me It's an inevitability

“All I Can Say” - David Crowder Band Just to remind myself that I’m not alone, even though it sometimes feels like it
Lord I'm tired, so tired from walking, And Lord I'm so alone And Lord the dark is creeping in, creeping up to swallow me I think I'll stop and rest here a while
And this is all that I can say right now, I know it’s not much And this is all that I can give, that’s my everything
“Good As Gone” – Little Big Town Reminds me that staying to see this through is MY choice ... and the look on her face in the video when she says “I’m good” makes me laugh every time
There's a cold feelin' Runnin' up and down my spine It seems to say "We're Just Wastin' Time" It's like a bad movie, One I wish I'd never seen The plot gets old, Do you know what I mean? Don't try to tell me it ain't what it is
I'm Good; I'm good at seein' the signs I'm good at reading between the lines No use in hangin' on; 'Cause you're good to go And baby I'm good as gone
There are several that have been with me since the beginning and through to now. The progression started out kind of sad and angry to pretty much just angry, The stuff at the end is what I listen to at the gym when I work out, it has helped so much. Enjoy!
1) Social Distortion - Far Behind With friends like you, who needs enemies? You ain't right, you ain't never gonna be You're out of the car, I'm afraid you've been declined. You shake my hand, while you're pissing on my leg I'm cutting you loose, I don't need this misery Your soul is toxic, you ain't no friend of mine. NO!!!
You talk real trash, when I'm not around To build yourself up, you gotta tear me down. You'll have to excuse me, I got better things to do You smile through your teeth, you talk out you're neck Every chance you get, you're going to stab my back Your time's run out, I've got nothing left for you.
I'm leaving you far behind I'm leaving you far behind Stop wasting all, all my time I'm leaving you far behind, Yeah!!!
So I'm pulling out the weeds, I'm taking stock You can talk the talk, but can't walk the walk Your narcissistic ways have gotten the best of you So I'm leaving you to sink in all your glory For you and me it's the end of the story Get out of my way, I've got better things to do.
With friends like you, who needs enemies? You ain't right, you ain't never going to be Your soul is toxic, you ain't no friend of mine.
2) Social Distortion - Ball and Chain Well it's been ten years, and a thousand tears And look at the mess I'm in- A broken nose and a broken heart, An empty bottle of gin Well I sit and I pray In my broken down Chevrolet- While I'm singin' to myself There's got to be another way
Take away, take away Take away this ball and chain I'm lonely and I'm tired And I can't take any more pain Take away, take away Never to return again Take away, take away Take away this ball and chain
Well I've searched and I've searched To find the perfect life- A brand new car and a brand new suit I even got me a little wife- But wherever I have gone I was sure to find myself there- You can run all your life But not go anywhere
Take away, take away Take away this ball and chain I'm lonely and I'm tired And I can't take any more pain Take away, take away Never to return again Take away, take away Take away this ball and chain
Well I'll pass the bar on the way To my dingy hotel room- I spent all my money Been drinkin' since a half past noon- I'll wake there in the mornin' Or maybe in the county jail- Times are hard getting harder I'm born to lose and destined to fail-
Take away, take away Take away this ball and chain I'm lonely and I'm tired And I can't take any more pain Take away, take away Never to return again Take away, take away Take away this ball and chain
3) Outside - Staind And you, bring me to my knees again All the times that I could beg you please, in vain All the times that I've felt insecure for you And I leave my burdens at the door
Chorus But I'm on the outside and I'm looking in I can see through you, see your true colors 'Cause inside you're ugly, you're ugly like me I can see through you, see to the real you
All the times, that I felt like this won't end It's for you And I taste what I could never have It was from you All the times that I've cried My intentions were full of pride But I waste more time than anyone Chorus All the times that I've cried All this wasted, it's all inside And I feel all this pain I stuffed it down, it's back again And I lie here in bed All alone, I can't mend But I feel, tomorrow will be okay Chorus
4) Rhianna - Take a Bow [Chorus] And don’t tell me you’re sorry 'cause you’re not (mmm), Baby when I know you’re only sorry you got caught (mmm), But you put on quite a show (oh), You really had me goin', But now it’s time to go (oh), Curtain’s finally closin', That was quite a show (oh), Very entertainin', But it’s over now (but it's over now), Go on and take a bow, ohh.
5) What Goes Around - Justin Timberlake (its too long to post)
6) Psycho - Puddle of Mudd
7) Hate Me - Five Finger Death Punch
8) The Way of the Fist - Five Finger Death Punch
9) Psychosocial - Slipknot
10)Freak on a Leash - Korn (Lyrics have been the titles of most of my threads).
I have listened to the first 6 songs and #10 since the beginning, but the others have come in the last 6 months. Music has helped me so much. I don't try to listen to all the sad stuff I did at the start, because thats not where I'm at anymore.

Here are some other ones by one of my favorite bands...
Independently Happy - Blue October
I feel that it's hard enough to say good-bye. I feel there's the water. Should I sink or dive? An empty plate, fill up my sentimental morning star. I steal the art of putting truth in a lie. I still want the girl that really caught my eye. But, she lives in Oklahoma City, far away from me. An empty hope chest. Quit the dope quest, And remain independently happy
I deal with the fact that I've forgotten the worst. I feel that my social behavior may seem somewhat unrehearsed. Another page, A sullen rage, And I'll be back to my normal self.
And I'm finally happy...happy... independently happy...
I drive to the edge of my considerate plain. I apologize to the people I hurt on the way. I wipe the slate clean I kick the daydream, And remain independently happy.
It's all about steam It's all about dreams It's all about making the best out of everything You'll know when your fine Cause you'll talk like a mime
You'll fall on your face You get back up and you're doing fine "a considerate clown, a preachy preachy machine" Is one of the sweetest things you would say about me But I don't have the time for your distorted esteem Why are you toying with my mind?
I don't wanna hear you say it Now you're [censored] with my pride
You think you're smarter than me Well everyone knows you will never be smarter than me That's how it goes I gained forty pounds because of you Was there an "S" on my chest Well I confess, you were too much stress I'd have a heart attack at best So now I breathe it out, I breathe it out I spit it on the crowd cause they lift me up, they lift me up, they lift me up
When I'm feeling down What am I spitting out? spitting out, something we never talk about It's called my... mind
I don't wanna hear you say it Now you're messing with my pride
I'm sick of standing in your line So now you'll have to take it Take this to heart I will never let you f*** me over Stop talking down to me your war is old Your game is over So here's my coldest shoulder
I don't wanna hear you say it Now you're messing with my pride
Something we don't talk about Something we never talk about
Should Be Loved - Blue October
Stop staring, you’re the reason I feel so unhappy all the time I’ve given you everything I know how Your standing on the top of my shoe keeping me from gaining ground I’m sorry if you feel like I let you down
Can you tell me what have I done so wrong To you Tell me what am I supposed to do
I should be loved by you, That I know is true But I cant breathe when you’re around!
I should be held at night That I know is right But I cant breathe when you’re around!
You’re too scared, Scared of all of it …I get that feeling I’m talking to the wall Can you hear me at all My world was shaking my mind was quaking, my heart kept breaking I threw it against the wall Can anyone feel me at all
Can you tell me what have I done so wrong... to you Tell me what am I supposed to do I got a feeling, you’re falling out of love with me Tell me who am I supposed to be
I should be loved by you That I know is true I can’t breathe when you’re around!
I should be held at night That I know is right I cant breathe when you’re around!! Look I can’t breath!

2: More than a Feeling-Boston Uplifting song when I just want to slip away for a bit.
3: Don't Stop Believing-Journey Gotta love the message and it was the end to the Sopranos.

5: I Will Survive - Gloria Gaynor Helped my mom when she was going through some hard times when I was younger and it really stuck out

Emotion, yet peace. Ignorance, yet knowledge. Passion, yet serenity. Chaos, yet harmony. Death, yet a new life.
"Free at last, they took your life They could not take your pride"
She can take away everything but cannot take away who I am.
Gandhi, MLK = strong, confident, peaceful, fair = who I wish to be.
