For me this talks to the abusive relationships I've had, including my experiences with JW's when I got married, and my parents/family shunning me. It also speaks to my alcoholisim recovery.
I'm Still Standing - Elton John

You could never know what it's like,
your blood like winter freezes just like ice.
And there's a cold lonely light that shines from you,
you'll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use.

And did you think this fool could never win?
Well, look at me, I'm coming back again !
I got a taste of love in a simple way,
and if you need to know while I'm still standing you just fade away.

Don't you know, I'm still standing better than I ever did,
looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid.
I'm still standing after all this time,
picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind.
I'm still standing, yeah yeah yeah!
I'm still standing, yeah yeah yeah!

Once I never could hope to win.
you starting down the road, leaving me again.
The threats you made were meant to cut me down,
and if our love was just a circus, you'd be a clown by now.

Don't you know, I'm still standing better than I ever did,
looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid.
I'm still standing after all this time,
picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind.
I'm still standing, yeah yeah yeah!
I'm still standing, yeah yeah yeah!

i have two, too....'ruby tuesday' by the stones:
She would never say where she came from
Yesterday don?t matter if it?s gone
While the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night
No one knows
She comes and goes

Goodbye, ruby tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I?m gonna miss you...

Don?t question why she needs to be so free
She?ll tell you it?s the only way to be
She just can?t be chained
To a life where nothing?s gained
And nothing?s lost
At such a cost

There?s no time to lose, I heard her say
Catch your dreams before they slip away
Dying all the time
Lose your dreams
And you will lose your mind.
Ain?t life unkind?

Goodbye, ruby tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I?m gonna miss you...
and 'killer queen' by queen
She keeps Möet et Chandon
in her pretty cabinet
'Let them eat cake' she says
Just like Marie Antoinette
A built-in remedy
for Khrushchev and Kennedy
And anytime an invitation
you can't decline

Caviar and cigarettes
well versed in etiquette
Extraordinarily nice

She's a killer queen
--gunfight agility--
Dynamite with a laser beam
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Anytime.

Recommended at the price
Insatiable an appetite
wanna try?

To avoid complications
She never kept the same address
In conversation
she spoke just like a baroness
Met a man from China
went down to Geisha Minah
Then again incidentally
if you're that way inclined (she's a
killer queen)

Perfume came naturally from Paris (naturally)
For cars she couldn't care less
Fastidious and precise

She's a killer queen
--gunfight agility--
Dynamite with a laser beam
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Anytime

Drop of a hat she's as willing as
playful as a pussy cat
Then momentarily out of action
Temporarily out of gas
To absolutely drive you wild, wild...
She's all out to get you

She's a killer queen
--gunfight agility--
Dynamite with a laser beam
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Anytime

You wanna try....

You have to hear this with the music...it breaks my heart everytime I hear it. But then again...Tom always does :) LOVE HIM!
Room At The Top
By Tom Petty

I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I can see everything tonight
I got a room where everyone
Can have a drink and forget those things
That went wrong in their life

I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
And I ain't comin' down, I ain't comin' down

I got someone who loves me tonight
I got over a thousand dollars in the bank
And I'm all right
Look deep in the eyes of love
Look deep in the eyes of love
And find out what you were looking for

I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
And I ain't comin' down, no I ain't comin' down

I wish I could feel you tonight, little one
You're so far away
I wanna reach out and touch your heart
Yeah like they do in those things on TV, I love you
Please love me, I'm not so bad
And I love you so

I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
And I ain't comin' down, no I ain't comin' down
I ain't comin' down

Used to be Blasphemous Rumours by Depeche Mode. For the past couple years, it's been Walk On by U2...
And love
Is not the easy thing
The only baggage
That you can bring
Not the easy thing
The only baggage you can bring
Is all that you can't leave behind
And if the darkness is to keep us apart
And if the daylight feels like it's a long way off
And if your glass heart should crack
And for a second you turn back
Oh no, be strong
Walk on
Walk on
What you got, they can't steal it
No they can't even feel it
Walk on
Walk on
Stay safe tonight
You're packing a suitcase for a place
None of us has been
A place that has to be believed
To be seen
You could have flown away
A singing bird
In an open cage
Who will only fly
Only fly for freedom
Walk on
Walk on
What you got
You can't deny it
Can't sell it or buy it
Walk on
Walk on
You stay safe tonight
And I know it aches
How your heart it breaks
You can only take so much
Walk on
Walk on
Home
Hard to know what it is
If you never had one
Home
I can't say where it is
But I know I'm going
Home
That's where the hurt is
And I know it aches
And your heart it breaks
You can only take so much
Walk on
Leave it behind
You've got to leave it behind
All that you fashion
All that you make
All that you build
All that you break
All that you measure
All that you feel
All this you can leave behind...

This tune keeps me going ...
Enormous Penis by DaVinci's Notebook
When ever life gets you down,
keeps you wearing a frown,
and the gravy train has left you behind.
And when you all out of hope.
Down at the end of your rope,
and nobody's there to throw you a line.
If you ever get so low, that you don't know which way to go,
come on and take a walk in my shoes.
Never worry 'bout a thing, got the world on a string
cause I've got the cure for all of my blues.

I take a look at my enormous penis...
and my troubles start melting away.
I take a look at my enormous penis...
and the happy times are coming to stay.

I gotta sing and dance when I glance in my pants,
and the feelings's like a sun-shiney day.
I take a look at my enormous penis...
and everything is going my way.

(Whistling)
(Scat singing)

I take a look at my enormous penis...
and my troubles start melting away.
I take a look at my enormous penis...
and the happy times are coming to stay.
Yeah, I got great big amounts in the place where it counts
and the feelings's like a sun-shiney day.

I take a look at my enormous penis...
and everything is going my way.
(On Bob and Tom now)
everything is going my way.
(Hey Look at these goobers)
everything is going my way.
(Ei-chi-wawa)
everything is going my waaaaaaaaaaay...... yum.

This song could apply to a lot of exjws.
Love Is The Answer
by
Todd Rundgren Name your price
A ticket to paradise
I can?t stay here any more
And I?ve looked high and low
I?ve been from shore to shore to shore
If there?s a short cut I?d have found it
But there?s no easy way around it

Light of the world, shine on me
Love is the answer
Shine on us all, set us free
Love is the answer

Who knows why
Someday we all must die
We?re all homeless boys and girls
And we are never heard
It?s such a lonely world
People turn their heads and walk on by
Tell me, is it worth just another try?

Tell me, are we alive, or just a dying planet?
What are the chances?
Ask the man in your heart for the answers

And when you feel afraid, love one another
When you?ve lost your way, love one another
When you?re all alone, love one another
When you?re far from home, love one another
When you?re down and out, love one another
All your hope?s run out, love one another
When you need a friend, love one another
When you?re near the end, love one another
We got to love one another

Light of the world, you got to shine
Love will be a means, yeah, yeah
Shine on us all
Know that love can save the day
Just give it one more chance
Lord you just can?t let it stop lord
Love is the answer
Got to be free to let love into your life
Let it shine

A minute ago I said "Whiskey River"... and that my be the theme song for the "public me"........ but when I am alone and let things get thought of the one always comes to mind.
"What A Fool Believes"- The Doobie Brothers w/Micheal McDonald
He came from somewhere back in her long ago
The sentimental fool don't see
Tryin' hard to recreate
What had yet to be created once in her life

She musters a smile for his nostalgic tale
Never coming near what he wanted to say
Only to realize
It never really was

She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
As he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know
He's watching her go
But what a fool believes ... he sees
No wise man has the power to reason away
What seems ... to be
Is always better than nothing
And nothing at all keeps sending him ...

Somewhere back in her long ago
Where he can still believe there's a place in her life
Someday, somewhere, she will return

She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
As he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know
He's watching her go

But what a fool believes ... he sees
No wise man has the power to reason away
What seems ... to be
Is always better than nothing
There's nothing at all
What seems ... to be
Is always better than nothing
There's nothing at all
But what a fool believes he sees ...
No wise man has the power to reason away
What seems ... to be
Is always better than nothing
This song hit the radio (yes, Virginia, there was radio back in the day) about a week after my first serious girl dumped me on a cold, bright moonlit night. God that hurt... and it still does. Seems like I have had a few one sided love affairs over the years.
I wish you well, Miss Patricia, God bless you wherever you are.

MARATHON by RUSH
It's not how fast you can go
The force goes into the flow
If you pick up the beat
You can forget about the heat
More than just survival
More than just a flash
More than just a dotted line
More than just a dash

It's a test of ultimate will
The heartbreak climb uphill
Got to pick up the pace
If you want to stay in the race
More than just blind ambition
More than just simple greed
More than just a finish line
Must feed this burning need
In the long run...

[Chorus:]
From first to last
The peak is never passed
Something always fires the light that gets in your eyes
One moment's high, and glory rolls on by
Like a streak of lightning
That flashes and fades in the summer sky

Your meters may overload
You can rest at the side of the road
You can miss a stride
But nobody gets a free ride

More than high performance
More than just a spark
More than just the bottom line
Or a lucky shot in the dark
In the long run...

[Chorus]

You can do a lot in a lifetime
If you don't burn out too fast
You can make the most of the distance
First you need endurance
First you've got to last...

[Chorus]
Scully

Artist: Lee Ann Womack
Song: I Hope You Dance
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
You get your fill to eat
But always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small
When you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance
[my take on this is: faith in yourself - something that was totally discouraged for me]

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Living might mean taking chances
But they're worth taking
Lovin' might be a mistake
But it's worth making
Don't let some hell bent heart
Leave you bitter
When you come close to selling out
Reconsider
Give the heavens above
More than just a passing glance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
(Time is a real and constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)

I hope you still feel small
When you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
Dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance
(Time is a real and constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
I hope you dance
(Where those years have gone)

(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)

What's everybody's theme song?
