Mine will always be:

Blue October - Hate Me
"Hi Justin! This is your mother it is 2:33 on Monday afternoon. I was just calling to see how you were doing. You sounded really uptight last night, it made me a little nervous, and a little, well it made me nervous, but it sounded like you were nervous too... I just want to make sure you are really okay and wanted to see if you were checking in on your medication. You know I love ya. Take care honey, I know you're under a lot of pressure. See ya. Bye Bye!"

I have to block out thoughts of you, so I don't lose my head
They crawl in like a cockroach leaving babies in my bed
Dropping little reels of tape to remind me that I'm alone
Playing movies in my head that make a porno feel like home
There's a burning in my pride, a nervous bleeding in my brain
An ounce of peace is all I want for you, Will you never call again?
And will you never say that you loved me just to put it in my face
And will you never try to reach me, it is I that wanted space

Hate me today.
Hate me tomorrow.
Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you.

I'm sober now for 3 whole months, it's one accomplishment that you helped me with.
The one thing that always tore us apart is the one thing I won't touch again.
In my sick way I want to thank you for holding my head up late at night
While I was busy waging wars on myself, you were trying to stop the fight
You never doubted my warped opinions on things like suicidal hate.
You made me compliment myself when it was way too hard to take
So I'll drive so ****ing far away that I never cross your mind
And do whatever it takes in your heart to leave me behind

Hate me today.
Hate me tomorrow.
Hate me for all the things i didn't do for you.
Hate me in ways,
Yeah ways hard to swallow.
Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you.

And with a sad heart I say bye to you and wave
Kicking shadows on the street for every mistake that I have made
And like a baby boy I never was a man
Until I saw your blue eyes cry and I held your face in my hand
And then I fell down yelling "Make it go away!"
Just make her smile come back and shine just like it used to be
And then she whispered "How can you do this to me?"

Hate me today.
Hate me tomorrow.
Hate me for all the things i didn't do for you.
Hate me in ways,
Yeah ways hard to swallow.
Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you.
For you.
For you.
For you.

    "Learning To Fly" Pink Floyd

    Into the distance, a ribbon of black
    Stretched to the point of no turning back
    A flight of fancy on a windswept field
    Standing alone my senses reeled
    A fatal attraction is holding me fast,
    How can I escape this irresistible grasp?

    Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
    Tongue-tied and twisted, just an earth-bound misfit, I

    Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
    Unheeded warnings, I thought, I thought of everything
    No navigator to find my way home
    Unladened, empty and turned to stone
    A soul in tension -- that's learning to fly
    Condition grounded but determined to try

    Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
    Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I

    Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
    My grubby halo, a vapor trail in the empty air,
    Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
    Out of the corner of my watering eye
    A dream unthreatened by the morning light
    Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night

    There's no sensation to compare with this
    Suspended animation, a state of bliss

    Can't keep my mind from the circling skies
    Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I

    When my mum died, when I was 16 (1997) these were the lyrics I could not shake

    (QUEEN - Who Wants to live forever)

    There's no time for us
    There's no place for us
    What is this thing that builds our dreams, yet slips away from us

    Who wants to live forever
    Who wants to live forever
    Oh ooo oh
    There's no chance for us
    It's all decided for us
    This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us

    Who wants to live forever
    Who wants to live forever
    Ooh
    Who dares to love forever
    Oh oo woh, when love must die

    But touch my tears with your lips
    Touch my world with your fingertips
    And we can have forever
    And we can love forever
    Forever is our today

    Who wants to live forever
    Who wants to live forever
    Forever is our today
    Who waits forever anyway?

    After 10 years of battling depression, suicidal thoughts and self harm

    I had put so much weight on, I looked at myself in the mirror and something snapped... I HAD to do something...

    This is my song now

    (R KELLY - I believe I can fly)

    I used to think that I could not go on
    And life was nothing but an distrustful song
    But now I know the meaning of true love
    I'm leaning on the everlasting arms
    If I can see it, then I can do it
    If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

    I believe I can fly
    I believe I can touch the sky
    I think about it every night and day
    Spread my wings and fly away
    I believe I can soar
    I see me running through that open door
    I believe I can fly
    I believe I can fly
    I believe I can fly

    See I was on the verge of breaking down
    Sometimes silence can seem so loud
    There are miracles in life I must achieve
    But first I know it starts inside of me
    If I can see it, then I can be it
    If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

    I believe I can fly
    I believe I can touch the sky
    I think about it every night and day
    spread wings and fly away
    I believe I can soar
    I see me running through that open door
    I believe I can fly
    I believe I can fly
    I believe I can fly

    Hey, 'cause I believe in you
    Oh

    If I can see it, then I can do it
    If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

    I believe I can fly
    I believe I can touch the sky
    I think about it every night and day
    spread wings and fly away
    I believe i can soar
    I see me running through that open door
    I believe I can fly
    I believe I can fly
    I believe I can fly

    If I just spread my wings (I can fly)
    I can fly (I can fly)
    I can fly (I can fly)
    I can fly (I can fly)
    If I just spread my wings (I can fly)
    I can fly...(i can fly,i can fly)
    woo... i can fly
    hmmmmm...fly, fly, fly

    :happy: :happy: :glasses: :happy: :happy:
