View Full Version : Songs with a meaning that help
Being the funny girl that I am sometimes I listen to things and relate. Some songs I can identify with, and there is one song I listen to that symbolises how I feel about daily life - with health anxiety.
I just wanted to share. Its Relax by Mika. I play it if I am particularly freaked and it chills me a bit.These are the lyrics:
Took a ride to the end of the line
Where no one ever goes.
Ended up on a broken train
with nobody I know.
But the pain and the
longing's the same
when you're dying.
Now I'm lost and I'm
screaming for help.
Relax, take it easy
For there is nothing that we can do.
Relax, take it easy
Blame it on me or blame it on you.
It's as if I'm scared.
It's as if I'm terrified.
It's as if I'm scared.
It's as if I'm playing with fire.
Scared.
It's as if I'm terrified.
Are you scared?
Are we playing with fire?
Relax
There is an answer to
the darkest times.
It's clear we don't
understand it but the last
thing on my mind
Is to leave you.
[ Lyrics found at www.mp3lyrics.org/aE (http://www.mp3lyrics.org/aE) ]
I believe that we're in this together.
Don't scream - there are
so many roads left.
Relax, take it easy
For there is nothing that we can do.
Relax, take it easy
Blame it on me or blame it on you.
Relax, take it easy
For there is nothing that we can do.
Relax, take it easy
Blame it on me or blame it on you.
(Interlude)
Relax, take it easy
For there is nothing that we can do.
Relax, take it easy
Blame it on me or blame it on you.
Relax, take it easy
For there is nothing that we can do.
Relax, take it easy
Blame it on me or blame it on you.
It's as if I'm scared.
It's as if I'm terrified.
It's as if I'm scared.
It's as if I'm playing with fire.
Scared.
It's as if I'm terrified.
Are you scared?
Are we playing with fire?
Relax

Ooooo....I like this thread! Here's my "safe song". I know nothing will hurt me when I'm listening to this...
Happiness?
More or less
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Oh, my, my
Happiness
Coming and going
I watch you look at me
Watch my fever growing
I know just where I am
But how many corners do I have to turn?
How many times do I have to learn?
All the love I have is in my mind?
But I'm a lucky man
With fire in my hands
Happiness
Something in my own place
I'm stood here naked
Smiling, I feel no disgrace
With who I am
Happiness
Coming and going
I watch you look at me
Watch my fever growing
I know just who I am
But how many corners do I have to turn?
How many times do I have to learn
All the love I have is in my mind?
I hope you understand
I hope you understand
Gotta love that'll never die
Happiness
More or less
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Happiness
Coming and going
I watch you look at me
Watch my fever growing
I know
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
Gotta love that'll never die
Gotta love that'll never die
No, no
I'm a lucky man
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
Atmolav, I love that song so much!! Beautiful words hey!

Oh yes - I'm glad you posted this. I've thought for a long time it would be good if there was a section where we could put up songs that mean something to us. Mika is a star - Happy Ending is my favourite Mika tune.
There are so many songs that mean something to me I don't know where to begin!
To name but a few:
Faithless - Evergreen
Eric Clapton - My Father's Eyes
The Verve - The drugs don't work
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Roadtrippin'
God there's hundreds and I can't think of them!
Anyway - good post. Relax is a wicked tune :yesyes:
xxx :flowers:
The Verve have written many a good song....
Faithless, very cool choice.
I love music, its my chill thing. Sundays are my very bad days, I always listen to the radio in my room, and just relax
x
Another one that works for me is Killing in the Name of by Rage Against the Machine.....I like to dedicate it to my anxiety ;-)

Listen,
To the song thats in my heart
A melody I've started
But can't complete
Listen, to the sound from deep within
It's only beginning
To find release
Oh,
the time has come
for my dreams to be heard
They will not be pushed aside and turned
Into your own
all cause you won't
Listen....
[Chorus]
Listen,
I am alone at a crossroads
I'm not at home, in my own home
And I tried and tried
To get you off my mind
and You should have known
Oh,
Now I'm done believing you
and the way you make me feel
I'm more than what, you made of me
but i followed the voice
you gave to me
But now I gotta find, my own..
You should have listened
There is someone here inside
Someone I'd thought had died
So long ago
Oh I'm screaming out, for my dreams to be heard
They will not be pushed aside or worse
turned Into your own
All cause you won't
Listen...
[Chorus]
I don't know where I belong
But I'll be moving on
If you don't....
If you won't....
LISTEN!!!...
To the song here in my heart
A melody I started
and I will complete
Oh,
Now I'm done believing you
and they way you make me feel
I'm more than what, you made of me
I followed the voice, you gave to me
But now I gotta find, my own..
my ownn...
these are the lyrics that give me strenth on very bad days.
hope you like.

This song always makes me feel really good ( and I love this post).........:D
"Drift Away"
Day after day I'm more confused
Then I look for the light through the pourin' rain
You know, that's a game, that I hate to lose
I'm feelin' the strain, ain't it a shame
Give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Won't you take me away
Beginin' to think, that I'm wastin' time
And I don't understand the things I do
The world outside looks so unkind
And I'm countin' on you, you can carry me through
Give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Won't you take me away
And when my mind is free
You know your melody can move me
And when I'm feelin' blue
The guitars come through to soothe me
Thanks for the joy you've given me
I want you to know that I believe in your song
And rhythm, and rhyme, and harmony
You helped me along, you're makin' me strong
Give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Won't you take me away
Give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Won't you take me away
Christina Aguliera - Stronger! Thats a great angry song
