What are some really deep song lyrics?
Ben G asked:
What are some really deep song lyrics that affected you? How did they affect you?
What are some really deep song lyrics that affected you? How did they affect you?
I’ll start
Now I wonder what my life is going to mean if it’s gone
How Far We’ve Come: matchbox 20
They made me want to make myself memorable and do something worth remembering.
Your turn.

Bother…..by Stone Sour
Something about that song has always touched a part of me deep down….i can’t explain it
Loser… by Beck
speed of sound coldplay
angel sara mccalphin
daughters john mayer
Creed- my own prison and
Papa Roach- Scars
I don’t know why i just get alot from those songs. ” Im sorry but i gotta move on with my own life” i always sing that part really loud lol
Always like “brick” by ben folds, its about abortion, I have loved that song for so long then when i found out what it was about it was kinda strange
“This is your Life” from the Fight Club soundtrack.
Handlebars – Flobots
“I can ride my bike with no handlebars.”
Meaning: A simple game can lead to destructible power.
Where’ve You Been? by Kathy Mattea is first. I heard that when I was about 10, and I was a geeky little nerd kid who had been too affected by fairy tales already. That song hit me on some weird, deep level, and I decided that day that I wanted a love like that, a woman who cared about me that deeply. (I found it, too, by the way.)
Mr. Tanner by Harry Chapin was another one. It is all about the damage of having an idea built up too much and then shattered, about putting too much out there and having people all but destroy the thing you love. It is a simple, clean, good story song with a powerful emotion to it (of course, I’d say that about just about EVERY song on Harry Chapin’s live album). I think this is, coincidentally, an interesting juxtaposition to the song you mention. If you haven’t heard it, check it out.
(This is a little rough, but you get the idea: )
“God is a concept by which we measure our pain.” – John Lennon.
“Life is what happens to you while you’re busy makng other plans.” – John Lennon.
