    AC DC's JAILBREAK would work nicely also. The only problem is the unhappy ending:

    He made it out...
    ...with a bullet in his back.

    Green Day - Minority

    I want to be the minority
    I dont need your authority
    Down with the moral majority
    cause I want to be the minority

    I pledge allegiance to the underworld
    One nation under dog
    There of which I stand alone
    A face in the crowd
    Unsung, against the mold
    Without a doubt
    Singled out
    The only way I know

    I want to be the minority
    I dont need your authority
    Down with the moral majority
    cause I want to be the minority

    Stepped out of the line
    Like a sheep runs from the herd
    Marching out of time
    To my own beat now
    The only way I know

    One light, one mind
    Flashing in the dark
    Blinded by the silence of a thousand broken hearts
    For crying out loud she screamed unto me
    A free for all
    F**k em all
    You are your own sight

    I want to be the minority
    I dont need your authority
    Down with the moral majority
    cause I want to be the minority

    This song came out the year after I left and I kinda felt like it was about leaving the JW's in a way. Their album was called 'Maybe You've Been Brainwashed Too'. It wasn't until a couple of years ago I found out the lead singer (Gregg Alexander) is a former born-in.

    New Radicals - You Get What You Give

    Wake up kids
    We've got the dreamers disease
    Age fourteen
    They got you down on your knees
    So polite
    You're busy still saying please

    Frienemies
    Who when you're down ain't your friend
    Every night
    We smash their mercedes-benz
    First we run
    And then we laugh 'till we cry

    But when the night is falling
    And you cannot find the light
    If you feel your dream is dying
    Hold tight

    You've got the music in you
    Don't let go
    You've got the music in you
    One dance left
    This world is gonna pull through
    Don't give up
    You've got a reason to live
    Can't forget you only get what you give

    Four a.m. we ran a miracle mile
    We're flat broke
    But hey we do it in style
    The bad rich
    God's flying in for your trial

    But when the night is falling
    And you cannot find a friend
    You feel your tree is breaking
    Just then

    You've got the music in you
    Don't let go
    You've got the music in you
    One dance left
    This world is gonna pull through
    Don't give up
    You've got a reason to live
    Can't forget
    You only get what you give

    This whole damn world can fall apart
    You'll be ok follow your heart
    You're in harms way I'm right behind
    Now say you're mine

    You've got the music in you
    Don't let go
    You've got the music in you
    One dance left
    This world is gonna pull through
    Don't give up
    You've got a reason to live
    Can't forget
    You only get what you give

    Don't let go
    We feel the music in you
    Fly high
    What's real can't die
    You only get what you give
    You're gonna get what you give
    Just dont be afraid to leave

    Health insurance rip off lying fda big bankers buying
    Fake computer crashes dining
    Cloning while they're multiplying
    Fashion mag shoots
    With the aid of 8 dust brothers beck hanson
    courtney love and marilyn manson
    You're all fakes
    Run to your mansions
    Come around
    We'll kick your ass in

    I was never really 'in' so I never really 'exited', however, this song describes what I've seen in my family, especially with some of the women:

    "Stupid Boy" - Keith Urban:

    WOW -It would seem everyone here has impeccable taste in Music.

    OTWO - The logical song is one of my all time favourites, Supertramp were on my Mums "banned" list because of long way home, but even she had to admit to the genius of the Albm "Breakfast in America".

    Hotel California - awesome for any occasion.

    Bon JOvi, AC DC, Greenday, New Radicals - you guys must have access to my IPod

    How I felt when I realized that I equated the real Creator with the Watchtower Society's version of Jehovah God ...

    John Lennon - God

    God is a concept,
    By which we can measure,
    Our pain,
    I'll say it again,
    God is a concept,
    By which we can measure,
    Our pain,
    I don't believe in magic,
    I don't believe in I-ching,
    I don't believe in bible,
    I don't believe in tarot,
    I don't believe in Hitler,
    I don't believe in Jesus,
    I don't believe in Kennedy,
    I don't believe in Buddha,
    I don't believe in mantra,
    I don't believe in Gita,
    I don't believe in yoga,
    I don't believe in kings,
    I don't believe in Elvis,
    I don't believe in Zimmerman,
    I don't believe in Beatles,
    I just believe in me,
    Yoko and me,
    And that's reality.
    The dream is over,
    What can I say?
    The dream is over,
    Yesterday,
    I was dreamweaver,
    But now I'm reborn,
    I was the walrus,
    But now I'm John,
    And so dear friends,
    You just have to carry on,
    The dream is over.

    This is how I felt when I came out of the apostate closet ...

    Crumblin Down by John Cougar

    Some people ain't no damn good
    You can't trust 'em you can't love 'em
    No good deed goes unpunished
    And I don't mind bein' their whippin' boy
    I've had that pleasure for years and years
    No no I never was a sinner--tell me what else can I do
    Second best is what you get 'til you learn to bend the rules
    And time respects no person--what you lift up must fall
    They're waiting outside to claim my tumblin' walls
    Saw my picture in the paper
    Read the news around my face
    And now some pepole don't want to treat me the same
    When the walls come tumblin' down
    When the walls come crumblin' crumblin'
    When the walls come tumblin' tumblin' down

    Moody Blues - "Question"Why do we never get an answer
    When we're knocking at the door?
    With a thousand million questions
    About hate and death and war.

    It's where we stop and look around us
    There is nothing that we need.
    In a world of persecution
    That is burning in it's greed.

    Why do we never get an answer
    When we're knocking at the door?
    Because the truth is hard to swallow
    That's what the wall of love is for.

    It's not the way that you say it
    When you do those things to me.
    It's more the way that you mean it
    When you tell me what will be.

    And when you stop and think about it
    You won't believe it's true.
    That all the love you've been giving
    Has all been meant for you.

    I'm looking for someone to change my life.
    I'm looking for a miracle in my life.
    And if you could see what it's done to me
    To lose the the love I knew
    Could safely lead me through.

    Between the silence of the mountains
    And the crashing of the sea
    There lies a land I once lived in
    And she's waiting there for me.

    But in the grey of the morning
    My mind becomes confused
    Between the dead and the sleeping
    And the road that I must choose.

    I'm looking for someone to change my life.
    I'm looking for a miracle in my life.
    And if you could see what it's done to me
    To lose the the love I knew
    Could safely lead me to
    The land that I once knew.
    To learn as we grow old
    The secrets of our souls.

    It's not the way that you say it
    When you do those things to me.
    It's more the way you really mean it
    When you tell me what will be.

    Why do we never get an answer
    When we're knocking at the door?
    With a thousand million questions
    About hate and death and war.

    It's where we stop and look around us
    There is nothing that we need.
    In a world of persecution
    That is burning in it's greed.

    Why do we never get an answer
    When we're knocking at the door?
