Dave Matthews "Ant's Marching": This song is very indicative of my relationship and life in general. It's hollow, monotonous and yet has potential in take some chances and break free and live, however, for one reason or another I typically bottle those chances up because it's not good timing.
Jackson Browne "The Pretender": This song really touches me because it talks about the people who we perceive to be living well, chasing after wealth but the truth is money can't buy us the things that really make us happy and in chasing of financial gain we sacrifice those things that really are what we want. I find myself far to often chasing after my next purchase high but the fact is I won't be happy until I pursue the chances that I have bottled up because my happiness does not lie in the things that money can buy.
The Avett Brothers "Tin Man": This is a good song that talks about how they miss the feeling of feeling. I miss being able to feel. I miss being able to get excited, being able to be sad or angry or happy. I have had to remove these emotions and virtually have a flat affect from the mental and emotional abuse over the course of my life. For this reason I can completely relate to the tin man and I wish to God I could feel again but I'm not sure I ever will.
So, in three songs, what is your life in it's current state? I hope in a year my three songs will have changed for the better!
