Soo lately i have been thinking how depressing the music we listen to is... maybe not all of you but most of us listen to really depressing lyrics... why?
Is it that we love to hear about heartbreak and... hurting ourselves on purpose.... or is it "the only music I like" ... that's one of the lamest things i have ever heard... just because we like something doesn't mean we do it... in this case... just because we like the music doesn't mean we have to put ourselves through those lyrics... they hurt and sooner or later, no matter how much you may think you won't... but you'll start expressing and doing the things you hear... soo please BE CAREFULL friends... i like you how you are now... you don't need to be depressed to get my attention and friendly loving... :D
We may like candy... and it's not that bad for you but over time it destroys your teathe.
On the other hand, i was listening to a band i hadn't listened to in a while called Needtobreathe... and i realized that their newest album has some amazing uplifting songs... i just want to share one with you...
Nothing Left To Loose
When my dreams are over
And my feet hit the floor
Is my will enough to move on
When we fight to get back
The love that we’ve lost
Will my hands be enough to push on
Tell me will I have enough to go on
Cause we are alive
We are strong
We can’t watch it go for nothing
Watch until it’s gone
And we are down
But we can choose
We’ve got nothing else to live for
Nothing left to lose
Love is just like a war we can’t win
We can give, we can give, we can give
When we stand in the face of the world falling down
In your hands you hold the pen
What’s your answer for the end
Cause we are alive
We are strong
We can’t watch it go for nothing
Watch until it’s gone
And we are down
But we can choose
We’ve got nothing else to live for
Nothing left to lose
Oh, Oh, I’ve got nothing left
Nothing left to lose
Oh, Oh, I’ve got nothing left
Nothing left to lose
When there’s nothing that we can’t afford to sacrifice
There’s no way they can put out your fire
There’s no way they can put out my fire

I love the last two lines of the song.
Now i have to admit i have listened to some depressing songs but i am moving on and cleaning up my music act.... that's a challenge

Funny you posted this, because the other day i was going to do a post on music.
Actually monday i was going to, but was to tired..anyways.
I was thinking while up at the hill, why do we listen to music. Its ONE of the only things that can make you happy, sad, depressed, lonely, angry, or just plain bored. Most music now a days if it isnt christian isnt happy at all....Even Christian music can be iffy sometimes.
So yah, i still havent come up with the answer of why we listen to music =P
but good post.
