I pondered for a long time about what it was gonna be, then it just hit me. I was looking for deep meanings and something complex, but I ended up with something so simple yet so bold.

These words have helped me through some of the toughest times of my life.. and as long as im still able to read it, it will always be true.

    Is that your handwriting? Just wondering... Not too shabby, and you can't go wrong with those words!

    can't you express yourself without permanently printing the lyrics to a tired song on your ass?

    cant you respect someone for wanting to express themselves? go into a tattoo parlor and see what happens.

    anyway i've been wanting the given to fly statue on my arm for awhile i'm just taking it slow just to make sure its the one i want, and to make sure i'll want one period.

    You dont know me. You dont know my past, and you can't predict my future.

    Im sorry to you the song is tired, but for me its inspirational.

    Like I said, you dont know me.. and you dont have to get lyrics tattooed on your body if you dont want to.

    Oh, and if you did.. I wouldn't criticize you. Have a nice day...

    I've always been against getting a tattoo of something related to a band, simiply because you don't know what their goign to do. I mean they could start putting out crap records sell out huge and Ed could wind up on the next Surreal Life. Then I would be embarressed about having a PJ tat. But I guess if it's something that means a lot to you at this point in your life that's cool.

    Who the hell are you to tell this person what has meaning and what doesn't?

    How does it affect you?

    You can have your opinion ... it was just my opinion that your comment sucked ass ...

    it was this person's opinion that this song, this lyric, it had deep meaning, enough to ink it and share it ... let this guy (or gal) be happy, you didn't have to shit on their parade from where ever it is you type with no recourse ... oh wait, this is a message board, that's what we're supposed to do, eh?

    and I agree with speedy ... I'd never get this tattoo ... *ever* ... but that's me. It doesn't mean as much to me.

    I don't think it's a matter of opinion... it's the approach. You start hacking and slashing...
