I was listening to
my Staind Cd
on the way to work
The song "For You"
Should have been my theme
song growing up
video here
album: "Break The Cycle"
"For You"
To my mother, to my father,
It's your son or it's your daughter,
Are my screams loud enough for you to hear me?
Should I turn this up for you?
I sit here locked inside my head
Remembering everything you said
The silence gets us nowhere!
Gets us nowhere way too fast!
The silence is what kills me
I need someone here to help me
But you don't know how to listen
And let me make my decisions
I sit here locked inside my head
Remembering everything you said
The silence gets us nowhere!
Gets us nowhere way to fast!
All your insults and your curses
make me feel like I'm not a person
And I feel like I am nothing
but you made me so do something
'Cause I'm fucked up because you are
Need attention, attention you couldn't give
I sit here locked inside my head
Remembering everything you said
The silence get us nowhere!
Gets us nowhere way to fast
What Was.. or Is Your Theme Song?

Lately I feel like "Landslide" is my theme song...
I'll have to think about it for growing up.
Sorry this is yours, though.. yikes! Hugs
Wow, you're right. That suits your childhood perfectly...
The darkness that was my childhood manifested beautifully into the following adolescence:
Hello?
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is there anyone home?
Come on, now.
I hear youre feeling down.
Well I can ease your pain,
Get you on your feet again.
Relax.
I need some information first.
Just the basic facts:
Can you show me where it hurts?
There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.
When I was a child I had a fever.
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I got that feeling once again.
I cant explain, you would not understand.
This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb.
Ok.
Just a little pinprick. [ping]
Therell be no more --aaaaaahhhhh!
But you may feel a little sick.
Can you stand up?
I do believe its working. good.
Thatll keep you going for the show.
Come on its time to go.
There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.
When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse,
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone.
I cannot put my finger on it now.
The child is grown, the dream is gone.
I have become comfortably numb.

(funny people have terrible tragic childhoods)
I like Staind, good song as well but paraphrasing Amy, YIKES indeed.
I had a very normal and sheltered childhood and have no theme song. I'll have to think about this some more.
Oh, how about Adam Ant's "Don't Drink, Don't Smoke". My friends used to harass me because of course I didn't drink or smoke as a teen...
Poor Jen.
(((((hugs)))))
: (
Atleast there was light at the end of the tunnel....TIM : )
Mine would be Schizophrenic Conversations, also by Staind.
Mostly cause I talk to myself to much. ROFL!
Actually, I don't know what a good song for me would be.
How about far beyond driven by Pantera. Nail my head to the floor and lets party.
You know that one Circus song? That's totally my song.
Behind Blue Eyes by The Who.
That or Coward of the County without the ass-kicking ending, by Kenny Rodgers.
Wow, that sucks Jen!
I had great parents, and I guess a normal childhood. We didnt have much money but I never did without.
I guess my theme song would be GOODY TWO SHOES by Adam Ant or LOOK AT ME I'M SANDRA DEE from Grease. Yes I was the good girl for many years. Not like the crack whore I am these days LOL!
Parents can be so clueless about how their actions and words impact their children.
My parents basically did a good job and gave us a happy childhood, but there are still things they said or did that left us scratching our heads in looking back.
Hugs to you Jen! Looks like you made it through it all just fine.
thanks kids..
somehow I did
make it through
Wow...some freaky shit just happened! I'm reading these comments, just as I was listening to this new Cat Stevens album (well, Yusuf Islam) - and he covers "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood."
Totally weird. LOL
