Years ago, my heart was set to live, oh But I've been trying hard against unbelievable odds It gets so hard in times like now to hold on My guns they're waiting to be stuck by At my side is God (NOTE: not religious but this jibes with my belief there is a positive power or force - maybe that's what Big Star meant as well)
And there ain't no one goin' turn me 'round Ain't no one goin' turn me 'round
There's people around who tell you that they know The places where they send you, and it's easy to go They'll zip you up and dress you down Stand you in a row But you know you don't have to You could just say no
And there ain't no one goin' turn me 'round Ain't no one goin' turn me 'round Ain't no one goin' turn me 'round Ain't no one goin' turn me 'round
I've been built up and trusted Broke down and busted But they'll get theirs and we'll get ours Just if we can Just, ah, hold on Hold on Hold on Hold on
Years ago my heart was set to live, oh But I've been trying hard against strong odds It gets so hard at times like now to hold on Well, I'll fall if I don't fight And at my side is God
Ain't there no one goin' turn me 'round Ain't no one goin' turn me 'round Ain't no one goin' turn me 'round

Agreed, Kortie. BTW, thanks for putting Zevon in my head. I just put on Werewolves of London and I'm howling at the ceiling. Love that song.
What's funny is that I want to howl with every thing inside me, but too self conscious. Even when alone and nobody to bear witness, I am that self conscious.
Go guys, go!!

"Sleepwalking" has been my theme song for almost three years now. The words have been in my signature since I joined. The singer of the song has always been my avatar. I'm not getting over this obsession any time soon.

I remember you mentioning your avatar before in relation to something before. But I did not get the reference at all. Now it all makes sense.....Nice to put that one to rest LOL

I'm howling quietly because the family is in bed Woke my dogs up, though!
You are in Shock! With love, the sky comes crumbling down You are in Shock! It comes crumbling down into my heart Even if you bind this fervid heart down in chains, it’s now to no avail I’ll knock down whoever stands in my way with but a fillip of my finger
You are in Shock! With love, pulses quicken You are in Shock! With love, my pulse quickens Seeking you, this vagrant heart is now fervidly ablaze.. .. mercilessly thrusting around and melting everything
So as to safeguard our love.. .. you set out on a journey.. losing sight of tomorrow Your face, so oblivious of a smile.. is not what I desire to see.. .. bring love back!
♫
You are in Shock! With love, tear darkness into pieces You are in Shock! Tear my darkness into pieces None will ever be able to spoil the serenity between us two These consolidating bonds, shall never again come apart
So as to safeguard our love.. .. you set out on a journey.. losing sight of tomorrow Your face, so oblivious of a smile.. is not what I desire to see.. .. bring love back!

Marina and The Diamonds - Solitaire
Pretty much everything about the song gets to me. But particularly
Quote:
And all the fakes, they called me cursed But I'm not cursed, I'm not cursed
Devo - Mongoloid Mongoloid is the old word for Down's Syndrome A lot of the lyrics in the song are relevant for autistics that can "pass". And there is Devo's spastic movements
Mongoloid, he was a mongoloid One chromosome too many
Mongoloid, he was a mongoloid And it determined what he could see
And he wore a hat And he had a job And he brought home the bacon So that no one knew
He was a mongoloid
Mongoloid, he was a mongoloid His friends were unaware
Mongoloid, he was a mongoloid Nobody even cared
