    nothingman

    (loved this song when Vitalogy came out... didn't realized it would be the soundtrack of year 2000 when I lost my first wife giving birth to our daughter)


    and




    Come Back

    (see above)

    Sometimes I bitch and complain about little stupid things and then you see posts like this. I couldnt imagine the strength one would need to overcome something like this....

    On one quizz I got Love Boat Captain (75%), on the other quizz Given to Fly
    If I were to answer without quizzes I would say all of these are me:

    All or none
    Given to fly
    In hiding
    In my tree
    Inside job

    So I think you can tell the pattern there... ;)
    I am just a dreamer, but you are just a dream...
    If I knew where it was I would take you there.

    Great thread!!

    So many songs can describe where I am at or have been. The song that is ME is Daughter. After surviving a childhood of severe abuse and growing up to be an adult that was still treated exceptionally poor by her family of origin, I severed ties last year. Really fucking scary, but really freeing.

    Don’t call me daughter… not fit to.

    She holds the hand that holds her down
    She will...rise above...

    I cry everytime I hear it live.

    The quiz song generator gave me "Down" which is certainly a good descriptor too:

    One day... the symptoms fade. Think I'll throw these pills away.
    And if hope could grow from dirt like me. It can be done.

    I think that the first quizz has only a few songs on disposal, but I am happy with MFC.

  • This is a great thread and I think about this frequently, but it's so difficult to answer because like someone said previously, the songs cover soooo many angles. I'd have to say currently I am in Eddie's "Longing to Belong".. but I have been in: In My Tree, Rearview Mirror, Daughter, Release, Nothingman (this one means way too much for me), In Hiding. Those are the ones that come to mind.
    Thanks for making this thread!

    Oh yes, and Present Tense!
