Nobody said it was easy...
So these two songs have been in my head all day. Isn't it amazing how you will hear a song and think "Wow, that is amazing, even thought I haven't been through that, I completey understand what it's saying." and then time goes by and some time later you hear it again and you think "Oh my goodness, I completely understand that song now. I thought I had understood it before, but now I feel what it's talking about too."
It's so funny to me how sometimes life is easier to explain in a song, or in this case two. It seems like I can never properly express my thoughts in words, and just when I feel completely misunderstood and like I'm the only one who's going through whatever it is I'm dealing with at the time, I hear a song, maybe even one I've heard 100 times before, and it just sums everything up so beautifully that it catches me off guard. I am put at ease and my breath is taken away all at once, and I again realize that I am not the only to expeience this, people have gone before me and others will go after me, and some how we all make it through.
Man I love the power of a song.
"The Scientist"
Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart
Tell me your secrets, and ask me your questions
Oh lets go back to the start
Running in circles, coming up tails
Heads on a silence apart
Nobody said it was easy
Oh it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said that it would be this hard
Oh take me back to the start
I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling your puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart
Tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing our tails
Coming back as we are
Nobody said it was easy
Oh it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I'm going back to the start
"Fix You"
When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
When the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
High up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
If you never try you'll never know
Just watch and learn
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
