A song that means alot

WildTurkey

This is a song I like, I think its fits now that Im no longer a dub. Its by Rascal Flat. its I'm moving on. please post yours

I've dealt with my ghosts and I've faced all my demons
Finally content with a past I regret
I've found you find strength in your moments of weakness
For once I'm at peace with myself
I've been burdened with blame, trapped in the past for too long
I'm movin' on

I've lived in this place and I know all the faces
Each one is different but they're always the same
They'll never allow me to change
But I never dreamed home would end up where I don't belong

I'm movin' on
At last I can see life has been patiently waiting for me
And I know there's no guaruntees, but I'm not alone
There comes a time in everyone's life
When all you can see are the years passing by
And I have made up my mind that those days are gone

I sold what I could and packed what I couldn't
Stopped to fill up on my way out of town
I've loved like I should but lived like I shouldn't
I had to lose everything to find out
Maybe forgiveness will find me somewhere down this road
I'm movin' on

I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on

WT, the one that I always associate with the JWs now is Bob Dylan's Positively 4th Street;

You got a lotta nerve
To say you are my friend
When I was down
You just stood there grinning

You got a lotta nerve
To say you got a helping hand to lend
You just want to be on
The side that's winning

You say I let you down
You know it's not like that
If you're so hurt
Why then don't you show it

You say you lost your faith
But that's not where it's at
You had no faith to lose
And you know it

I know the reason
That you talk behind my back
I used to be among the crowd
You're in with

Do you take me for such a fool
To think I'd make contact
With the one who tries to hide
What he don't know to begin with

You see me on the street
You always act surprised
You say, "How are you?" "Good luck"
But you don't mean it

When you know as well as me
You'd rather see me paralyzed
Why don't you just come out once
And scream it

No, I do not feel that good
When I see the heartbreaks you embrace
If I was a master thief
Perhaps I'd rob them

And now I know you're dissatisfied
With your position and your place
Don't you understand
It's not my problem

I wish that for just one time
You could stand inside my shoes
And just for that one moment
I could be you

Yes, I wish that for just one time
You could stand inside my shoes
You'd know what a drag it is
To see you

I love that song, I'm moving on,, my favorite verse is:

"But I never dreamed home would end up where I dont belong".

This has been a sad week for me, I have no regrets about my decision to d/a myself, but I am leaving behind a big part of my life. Most of it was miserable, but there are many relationships in our lives , including the one with God or a religion, that will always be with us. I think of the proud moments we had as a family while in the JW, those feelings were not false, maybe the whole thing was based on falsehood, I know it was, but I still smile at some of the things.

Like my oldest son when he was 7 giving his first public talk, and how proud he was, how proud we were, and the tears in the eyes of the old ones when he came off the stage.

Holding an old brothers hand as he laid waiting to pass on, and really believing he was comforted by the resurrection hope.

There were some good brothers and sisters to me when I had no mother to turn to, no father either. For the whole most were not that loving or caring, but there were a handful of good souls that I will miss. It does hurt me to think, that they will think I am lost. I know they are the ones who are deluded , but some of them are so old and I just cant tell them my doubts and true feelings about the WT right now.

No matter how bad home was growing up , in my case, I miss even the few good moments my mother, my dad and my sister had together. For all the bad, I choose to forget what is too painful to remember , and remember the short time we had together. I guess when I pass that kingdom hall on hwy 7 , I will remember when my kids were young, when we were young, and how hard we tried to do the right thing. Maybe staying in as long as we did , served some kind of purpose, for me it probably was security. I am ready to move on ,,,,,, but I guess it will take time for that old building to not be home anymore.

Lamb - Gorecki

If I should die this very moment
I wouldn't fear
For I've never known completeness
Like being here
Wrapped in the warmth of you
Loving every breath of you
Still my heart this moment
Or it might burst

Could we stay right here
Until the end of time
'Til the earth stops turning
Wanna love you 'til the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for

All this time I've loved you
And never known your face
All this time I've missed you
And searched this human race
Here is true peace
Here my heart most calm
Safe in your soul
Bathed in your sighs

Wanna stay right here
Until the end of time
'Til the earth stops turning
Gonna love you 'til the seas runs run dry
I've found the one I've waited for

All I've known,
All I've done,
All I've felt,
Was leading to this
All I've known,
All I've done,
All I've felt,
Was leading to this

Wanna stay right here
Until the end of time
'Til the earth stops turning
Gonna love you 'til the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for

The one I've waited for

Wanna stay right here
Until the end of time
'Til the earth stops turning
Gonna love you 'til the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for

The one I've waited for

The one I've waited for

WildTurkey

Never heard that song Moe but I like the words.

WildHorses

I also love that song, WT. Although I don't associate it with leaving the dubs

LB

Well this song by Godsmack comes to mind. Not as deep as Moe's, but....

Bad Religion

Get Back!

Can you feel I'm not like you anymore?
I can't see, I can't breathe!
See you quiver like the dogs on the streets.
Looking down on as I beat you.

"It's a bad religion
From a broken nation.
It's a contradiction..."

And I can't take it anymore, Yeah!

Who's to say I won't like you anyway?
Take a deep breath, I'm alive.
Can you HEAR me? I'm alive inside you.
Agony creeps up behind you.

[repeat chorus]

And I can't take it any xxxxin' way!

[repeat chorus]

Can you feel it?
I've gotta live with it every day.
And I can't take the pressure,
I'm goin' insane. Now go away!
Go away!

"Make Yourself" - IncubusIf I hadn't made me, I would've been made somehow
If I hadn't assembled myself, I'd have fallen apart by now
If I hadn't made me, I'd be more inclined to bow
Powers that be, would have swallowed me up
But that's more than I can allow
Bow, aww yeah

If you let them make you, they'll make you paper mache
At a distance you're strong, until the wind comes
Then you crumble and blow away
If you let them f--- you, there will be no foreplay
Rest assured, they'll screw you complete
Til your a-- is blue and gray
You should make amends with you
If only for better health, better health
But if you really want to live
Why not try, and make yourself
Make yourself
Make yourself

If I hadn't made me, I'd have fallen apart by now
I won't let them make me, It's more than I can allow
So when I make me, I won't be paper mache
And if I f--- me, I'll f--- me my own way
POW, f--- me in my own way
POW, f--- me in my own way
POW, f--- me in my own way
F--- me in my own way

You should make amends with you
If only for better health, better health
But if you really want to live
Why not try, and make yourself
Make yourself
Make yourself
Make yourself
Make yourself

"Drive" - IncubusSometimes I feel the fear of uncertainty stinging clear
And I cant help but ask myself how much I'll let the fear take the wheel and steer
It's driven me before, it seems to have a vague and
Haunting mass appeal
Lately I'm beginning to find that I should be the one behind the wheel
Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
With open arms and open eyes yeah
Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there, I'll be there

So if I decide to waiver my chance to be one of the hive
Will I choose water over wine and hold my own and drive, oh oh
It's driven me before, it seems to be the way
That everyone else get around
Lately, I'm beginning to find that when I drive myself, my light is found

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
With open arms and open eyes yeah
Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there, I'll be there
Would you choose water over wine
Hold the wheel and drive
Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
With open arms and open eyes yeah
Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there, I'll be there, yeah...
