Song Lyrics

I often find that song lyrics touch me. I think it is the musician in me coming through. Some songs always touch my heart and others may reach me at a point in my life and mean something yet when I come back to them later, they don't reach me the same way. I find it amazing how well music can describe me sometimes. Here are some lyrics that I find very appropriate for me right now.

Leave Out All The Rest~Linkin Park

I dreamed I was missing, You were so scared.
But no one would listen, 'Cause no one else cared.
After my dreaming, I woke with this fear.
What am I leaving, When I'm done here?
So if you're asking me, I want you to know...

When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed.
And don't resent me, when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory, leave out all the rest...leave out all the rest.

Don't be afraid, I've taken my beating
I've shed but I'm me.
I'm strong on the surface, not all the way through
I've never been perfect, but neither have you.
So if you're asking me I want you to know....

When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some reason to be missed.
And don't resent me, when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory, leave out all the rest...leave out all the rest.

Forgetting all the hurt inside you've learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come and save me from myself.
I can't be who you are...
