Too much time on my hands as been my theme song for years. I don't feel like I have a lot of time, but it looks like it to other people because the things I do are things they don't have time to do (video games, knitting, baking, working with my dogs, etc...)

Quote:
Yeah, here I am sitting on this bar stool,
Talking like a damn fool
Got the twelve o'clock news blues
And I've given up hope for the afternoon soaps
And a bottle of cold brew
Is it any wonder I'm not crazy
Is it any wonder I'm sane at all

Well I'm so tired of losing
I've got nothing to do and all day to do it
Well I'd go out cruising, but I've no place
To go and all night to get there
Is it any wonder I'm not a criminal
Is it any wonder I'm not in jail

Is it any wonder I've got too much time on my hands
It's ticking away with my sanity
I've got too much time on my hands
It's hard to believe such a calamity
I've got too much time on my hands
And it's ticking away, ticking away from me

(Too much time on my hands)
It's tick tick tick tick ticking away
(Too much time on my hands)
And I don't know what to do with myself
(Too much time on my hands)

(Too much time on my hands)
(Too much time on my hands)
(Too much time on my hands)

Now I'm a jet fuel genius
I can solve the world's problems
Without even trying
I've got dozens of friends, and the fun never ends
That is as long as I'm buying
Is it any wonder I'm not the President
Is it any wonder I'm null and void

Is it any wonder I've got too much
Time on my hands
It's ticking away with my sanity
I've got too much time on my hands
It's hard to believe such a calamity
I've got too much time on my hands
And it's ticking away, ticking away from me

(Too much time on my hands)
Ticky tick tick tick tick ticking away
(Too much time on my hands)
And I don't know what to do with myself
(Too much time on my hands)
Umm mmm
(Too much time on my hands)
Tick tick tick ticking away
(Too much time on my hands)
Umm mmm
(Too much time on my hands)
Too much time on my hands
Too much time on my



For a while I'd listen to Hold On every night before I went to bed when I was in school.
Quote:
I know this pain
Why do lock yourself up in these chains?
No one can change your life except for you
Don't ever let anyone step all over you
Just open your heart and your mind
Is it really fair to feel this way inside?

[Chorus:]
Some day somebody's gonna make you want to
Turn around and say goodbye
Until then baby are you going to let them
Hold you down and make you cry
Don't you know?
Don't you know things can change
Things'll go your way
If you hold on for one more day
Can you hold on for one more day
Things'll go your way
Hold on for one more day

You could sustain
Or are you comfortable with the pain?
You've got no one to blame for your unhappiness
You got yourself into your own mess
Lettin' your worries pass you by
Don't you think it's worth your time
To change your mind?

[Chorus]

I know that there is pain
But you hold on for one more day and
Break free the chains
Yeah I know that there is pain
But you hold on for one more day and you
Break free, break from the chains

Some day somebody's gonna make you want to
Turn around and say goodbye
Until then baby are you going to let them
Hold you down and make you cry
Don't you know?
Don't you know things can change
Things'll go your way
If you hold on for one more day yeah
If you hold on

Don't you know things can change
Things'll go your way
If you hold on for one more day,
If you hold on
Can you hold on
Hold on baby
Won't you tell me now
Hold on for one more day 'Cause
It's gonna go your way

Don't you know things can change
Things'll go your way
If you hold on for one more day
Can't you change it this time

Make up your mind
Hold on
Hold on
Baby hold on




Then of course there's Magic Power, which just makes me feel good.

Quote:
Something's at the edge of your mind
You don't know what it is
Something you were hoping to find
But you're not sure what it is
Then you hear the music
And it all comes crystal clear
The music does the talking
Says the things you want to hear

I'm young, I'm wild and I'm free
Got the magic power of the music in me
I'm young, I'm wild and I'm free
Got the magic power of the music in me

She climbs into bed
She pulls the covers overhead
And she turns her little radio on
She's had a rotten day
So she hopes the DJ's
Gonna play her favorite song

Makes her feel much better
Brings her closer to her dreams
A little magic power
Makes it better that it seems

She's young now, she's wild now, she wants to be free
She gets the magic power of the music from me
She's young now, she's wild now, she wants to be free
She gets the magic power of the music from me

You're thinking it over
But you just can't sort it out
Do you want someone to tell you
What they think it's all about
Are you the one and only
Who's sad and lonely
You're reaching for the top
Well, the music keeps you going
And it's never gonna stop
It's never gonna stop
It's never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna stop

The world is full of compromise
And infinite red tape
But the music's got the magic
It's your one chance for escape
Turn me on, turn me up
It's your turn to dream
A little magic power
Makes it better than it seems

I'm young now, I'm wild now, I want to be free
Got the magic power of the music in me
I'm young now, I'm wild and I'm free
Got the magic power of the music
I got the music in me

I got the power
I got the magic
She's got the power
She's got the magic
She's got the power
She's got the magic
She's got the power
She's got the magic

CKhermit - I'm pleased to see Type O as someone's theme! I saw them once with the Ramones opening! 20 years ago I think.

ASPartOfMe- Those were striking. Very.

I suppose mine would have to be Cry of the Blackbirds by Amon Amarth:



Here are the lyrics:

Raise your swords up high!
See the black birds fly!
Let them hear your rage!
Show no fear!
Attack!

Charge your horses across the fields
Together we ride into destiny
Have no fear of death, when it's your time
Odin will bring us home when we die!

The ground trembles under us
As we make our thunder charge
The pounding hooves strikes blinding fear
Into their heart

Our helmets shine in the sun
As we near their wall of shields
Some of them turn and run
When they hear our frenzied screams

Draw your swords to strike
Hear the Black Birds cry!
Let them feel your hate!
Show no fear!

(Attack! Attack! Attack! Attack!)

Charge your horses across the fields
Together we ride into destiny
Have no fear of death, when it's your time
Odin will bring us home when we die!

The enemies are in disarray
Ride them down as they run
Send them to their violent graves,
Don't spare anyone
Dead and wounded lie all around,
See the pain in their eyes
Over the field an eerie sound,
As we hear the ravens' cry

My theme song is Courageous by Casting Crowns. After I've been trying to tell people that I have Autism, I've been leaning on this song. I've already told my classmates. Next up? My MYSO(Milwaukee Youth Symphony Orchestra) stand partner. I'm 4th chair in the cello section. She HATES it when I don't look her in the eye or do something that seems weird to her. I think that she may have some Asperger's, too, but A: she's undiagnosed and B: I can't tell her without getting her mad.

I LOVE the words...
"They been calling me a monster, ever since the day I was born"
It's about coming to accept being different and maybe a little crazy

Bonnie Tyler - Total Eclipse of the Heart

Fleetwood Mac - The Chain

Lynyrd Skynyrd - Freebird

Lita Ford and Ozzy Osbourne - Close My Eyes Forever

Kate Bush - This Woman's Work

Nine Inch Nails - Came Back Haunted
Really lots of NIN songs, they have practically been the soundtrack to much of my life.

Madonna - Live to Tell

Oh yeah, one more, how could I forget...

Pink Floyd - Learning to Fly

I used to listen to this when I was young.
These lyrics were comforting and helped me to get out of depression:

You are a child of the universe
No less than the trees and the stars
And you have a right to be here
And whether or not it is clear to you
No doubt the universe is unfolding as it should

Thinking back I've had lots of songs that fit a specific time in my life. This one has been my theme for the last several years:

Black Sabbath - Changes

Maybe not the happiest song, but it's so pretty.

This purely because when I first thought I might have Aspergers, I was feeling a bit crap and I was nervous about a date I was going on that evening, but I played this on repeat on the way to his house. When it got to the chorus I felt like I wanted to dance and jiggle about, and usually I'd stop myself, but I thought, 'Well f*** it, if I have ASD then I may as well make the most of it!' and had a great little jig and felt free for the first time in years. :) So now it reminds me that I can be myself.
