I have been waiting for a song to blow my way that can express how I feel....Treasure planet did that for me...
Read the lyrics carefully, you might see someone that you haven't pictured...me
I'm still here~ John Rzeznik (my new musical hero!)
I am a question to the world
Not an answer to be heard
Or a moment that's held in your arms
And what do you think you'd ever say
I won't listen anyway
You don't know me
And I'll never be what you want me to be
And what do you think you'd understand
I'm a boy - No, I'm a man
You can't take me and throw me away
And how can you learn what's never shown
Yeah you stand here on your own
They don't know me
'Cause I'm not here
And I want a moment to be real
Wanna touch things I don't feel
Wanna hold on and feel I belong
And how can the world want me to change
They're the ones that stay the same
They don't know me
'Cause I'm not here
And you see the things they never see
All you wanted I could be
Now you know me and I'm not afraid
And I wanna tell you who I am
Can you help me be a man
They can't break me
As long as I know who I am
And I want a moment to be real
Wanna touch things I don't feel
Wanna hold on and feel I belong
And how can the world want me to change
They're the ones that stay the same
They can't see me
But I'm still here
They can't tell me who to be
'Cause I'm not what they see
Yeah, the world is still sleepin'
While I keep on dreamin' for me
And their words are just whispers and lies
That I'll never believe
And I want a moment to be real
Wanna touch things I don't feel
Wanna hold on and feel I belong
And how can they say I'll never change
They're the ones that stay the same
I'm the one now
'Cause I'm still here
I'm the one
'Cause I'm still here
I'm still here
I'm still here
I'm still here

Ehh, not much. I used to...when I watched MTV. That was when I was about 9-10 though. I listen aorund to all types of music, this just turned out to be a fav. of mine. How 'bout you? Goo goo dolls aren't really my type of music...but some of their songs are kinda cool...original I guess and unique

That's interesting. Who are we? It's good to know who we've become when we accept Christ. We have a new identity and are described "as aliens and strangers in the world" (1Peter 2:11)
Therefore, as christians, we shouldn't be surprised to feel as if we don't fit in with the world.
For questioning being known, I like Third Day's "Who I am"

I guess I'm misunderstood a little. I misunderstand myself a lot. I guess I have an idea who I am ...but no one else understands me, or what I'm about. I am constantly writing songs about this particular feeling, and when I open myself up to people by letting them read my lyrics, they just think I am trying to rebel and stuff. So lately I've been keeping the songs to myself...

Naw, you should share them. It's just like not everybody likes one kind of music, you know. You are unique. Express what makes you that way. Do you play an instrument?

OO! I like 3rd day! I'll think about posting some of my lyrics. I'll have to pick out some of my favorites though. I play some guitar, piano and flute. I've been playing for years, so when it comes to writing music, I've got the hang of it

Wow, three instruments? You definitely have a gift of music. I play guitar, but I haven't been able to write anything -it's hard!
once again, you must have a God-given gift.
Yes, I like Third Day. I play a lot of their songs on the guitar. Sonicflood too. I'm more into praise music than rock overall. Gotta give God his due and sometimes I can't do that as much to fast songs.
Fav's: Resonate by Sonicflood. Something about that song..
Your Love, Oh Lord by...well, you know

I love to write songs, i am more of a worship song person, but i wrote this one the other day while i was travelling in my car to go to my friends house....
Silent faces with silky hair
lives that go on
where ya heading
down the path of life
crossroads bite
what way to go
choose life choose life
with hearts bleeding
and lives leaning
God's plan is never failing
A purpose you have
in this walk of life
take His hand
cause He's there
I wrote another one that afternoon but it is a worship song, and my sister is writing the music to it for me.
You know i love to read lyrics too especially when they are personal abotu how a person is feeling, the song i posted there , i got from looking at people driving past me and wondering what they are doing and stuff and where they are heading in life.
