This is a goofy thread, but I often interpret song lyrics to fit my own life. Lately WLS has been on my mind, and I've found meaning in a lot of songs. I'd be curious to know if any of you have songs, quotes, etc. that have held meaning for your WLS journey.
I don't particularly like the band Staind, but the song
It's Been Awhile has a particular impact on me.
Quote:
And it's been awhile
Since I could hold my head up high
And it's been awhile since I first saw you
And it's been awhile since I could stand on my own two feet again
And it's been awhile since I could call you
And everything I can't remember
As ****ed up as it all may seem
The consequences that I've rendered
I've stretched myself beyond my means
It's been awhile
Since I can say that I wasn't addicted
And it's been awhile since I can say I love myself as well and
And it's been awhile since I've gone and ****ed things up just like I always do
And it's been awhile but all that **** seems to disappear when I'm with you
And everything I can't remember
As ****ed up as it all may seem
The consequences that I've rendered
I've gone and ****ed things up again
Why must I feel this way?
Just make this go away
Just one more peaceful day
And it's been awhile
Since I could look at myself straight
And it's been awhile since I said I'm sorry
And it's been awhile since I've seen the way the candles light your face
And it's been awhile but I can still remember just the way you taste
And everything I can't remember
As ****ed up as it all may seem to be
I know it's me
I cannot blame this on my father
He did the best he could for me
And it's been awhile
Since I could hold my head up high
And it's been awhile since I said I'm sorry
