I know that no song can describe someone.100% but there are songs that pretty much hit the nail on the head. I thought this would be kind of fun to do with everyone as a lot of us are trying to make friends/get to know one another.

I'll start. And you don't have to give an intro if you don't want to.

I tend to over think everything to understand myself and the world around me so this song helps describe me.

funny you should ask; i asked myself this question a few days ago, and agreed with myself that a combination of 3 songs would provide an accurate description.

with all these, it is not so much the music itself, but the lyrics and overall 'feel' that are descriptive

"The Winner" Gundam 0083 opening.
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tA450yRJ6Cs[/youtube]

Seriously, this song is like, the most relatable song I've ever listened to.

Quote:
I've tided over countless sleepless nights
This wounding pain is only a single memory
I don't need kindness; I don't want it
I'll say it twice: I don't want it

The dream I sought is just an illusion now.
I can hear someone whispering in my mind.
I don't need consolation; I don't want it
And I don't want false love either

Without a winner or the like, tired out from battle
I look up at the sky; crying out is beyond my power
I don't need yesterday or the like
I don't need a dream that has rotted away


I just feel it so perfectly describes my life, not JUST the lyrics, but just the way it's like, the song really sounds like it's name.

I somehow feel like quoting My Chemical Romance, The End. I'm also surprised I knew the title of the song.

Quote:
Now come one come all to this tragic affair
Wipe off that makeup- what's in is dispair
So throw on the black dress
Mix in with the lot
You might wake up and notice
You're someone you're not

If you look in the mirror and don't like what you see
You can find out firsthand what it's like to be me
So gather 'round piggies and kiss this goodbye
I'd encourage your smile, I'll expect you won't cry

AHHHH! AHHHH! AHHHH! AHHHH!

Another contusion, my funeal jag
Here's my resignation, I'll serve it in drag
you've got front row seats to the penitent's ball
When I grow up I want to be nothing at all!
I said

YEAH! YEAH! I SAID- YEAH! YEAH!

C'mon c'mon c'mon I said
Save me!
Get me the hell out of here
Save me!
Too young to die and my dear
You can't!
If you can hear me just walk away and
Take me!

Especially these lyrics but that may change very soon thanks to wonderful bipolar.

Quote:
Sometimes I get lonesome
I can't breathe
Sometimes I get so scared
That I can't speak
Sometimes I get so worried
I can't hear my heart beat
Anyway, anyway

I wanna tear out my heart
And give it away
To a person more deserving one day

And if all I see
Is the worst in everything
That's all I'm gonna get
That's all I'm gonna get
That's all I'm gonna get

And if you think you are better than me
You're right
There's no one to love
There's no one to trust
In my life
There's no one to love
There's no one to trust
In my life

Just a Girl by No Doubt

I think it describes me exactly because I hardly get to go anywhere on my own, and as a result have become too shy of most of the outside world.

'Push & Pull' by Nikka Costa is still pretty accurate.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hh4XoP2rXdM[/youtube]


Mr. Nothing's got a lot, he's got a lot to say
He's good at being what he's not and gives nothing away
Another day goes by, and he never speaks his heart
He'll take his chance with what he's got, it's too late now to start

You push and you pull it, struggle with the knot
That's tying you up while you're fading
You give and you take it, take in what you got
Round and round till it breaks ya
You push and you pull it, struggle with the knot
That's tying you up while you fade into your life

Mr. Nothing is late, he's running out of time
He questions whether chance or fate will ever show a sign
He looks to the sky above for a glimpse of what it means
And 'now or never' never made more sense to him

You push and you pull it, struggle with the knot
That's tying you up while you're fading
You give and you take it, take in what you got
Round and round till it breaks ya
You push and you pull it, struggle with the knot
That's tying you up while you fade into your life

This has been my theme song since high school. ( :oops: )

When i was young
It seemed that life was so wonderful
A miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical
And all the birds in the trees
Well they´d be singing so happily
Oh joyfully, oh playfully watching me
But then they sent me away
To teach me how to be sensible
Logical, oh responsible, practical
And they showed me a world
Where i could be so dependable
Oh clinical, oh intellectual, cynical

There are times when all the world´s asleep
The questions run too deep
For such a simple man
Won´t you please, please tell me what we´ve learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who i am

Now watch what you say
Or they´ll be calling you a radical
A liberal, oh fanatical, criminal
Oh won´t you sign up your name
We´d like to feel you´re
Acceptable, respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable!

At night when all the world´s asleep
The questions run too deep
For such a simple man
Won´t you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who i am, who i am ,who i am.

Sorry for the triple comment above.
I use my phone and it gets unruly at times :(
