“If there were no rewards to reap
No loving embrace to see me through
This tedious path I’ve chosen here
I certainly would’ve walked away
By now”

作曲:王中易、高漠伊
编曲:王中易、高漠伊

银辉描淡的石桥
桥边嬉戏的垂髫
风吹枝柳折细腰
童谣声声伴长吆
乌蓬水面风寂寥
薄云淡淡月初瞧

I understand no one here understands Chinese written text but this song is currently one of my favorites in my playlist.

“lock me in this place forever it’s where I wanna be all that matters is you and me so shut out the world”
Eve to Adam song shut out the world

A personal fav:

I call this one, the campfire song song
Let’s gather 'round the campfire, and sing our campfire song
Our C-A-M-P-F-I-R-E S-O-N-G song
And if you don’t think that we can sing it faster then you’re wrong
But it’ll help if you just sing along
Bum, bum, buuum…
C-A-M-P-F-I-R-E S-O-N-G song
C-A-M-P-F-I-R-E S-O-N-G song
And if you don’t think that we can sing it faster then you’re wrong
But it’ll help if you just sing along
C-A-M-P-F-I-R-E S-O-N-G song
Patrick!
Song! C-A-M-P-F-I-R-E
Squidward!
Gooood!
It’ll help, it’ll help…
If you just sing along!
Aww, yeah!

I have burned my tomorrows
And I stand inside today
At the edge of the future
And my dreams all fade away

And burn my shadow away…

I faced my destroyer
I was ambushed by a lie
And you judged me once for falling
This wounded heart arise

And burn my shadow away…

Shine On You Crazy Diamond

Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun
Shine on you crazy diamond
Now there’s a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky
Shine on you crazy diamond
You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom
Blown on the steel breeze

Come on you target for faraway laughter
Come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine

You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon
Shine on you crazy diamond
Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light
Shine on you crazy diamond
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision
Rode on the steel breeze

Come on you raver, you seer of visions
Come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine

What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end

this came to my mind yesterday fragment I’m not lazy…no I’m just honey baby - cant you see?

I think these lyrics are the best I’ve encountered about mental illness and all it entails and the burning desire to do better regardless…from Fugazi. "Waiting Room "

I am a patient boy
I wait, I wait, I wait, I wait
My time, water down a drain

Everybody’s moving
Everybody’s moving
Everybody’s moving, moving, moving, moving
Please don’t leave me to remain

In the waiting room
I don’t want the news
I cannot use it
I don’t want the news
I won’t live by it
Sitting outside of town
Everybody’s always down
Tell me why?
Because, they can’t get up
Come on and get up
Come on and get up

But I don’t sit idly by
I’m planning a big surprise
I’m gonna fight for what I wanna be
And I won’t make the same mistakes ('cause I know)
Because I know how much time that wastes (and function)
Function is the key

To the waiting room
I don’t want the news
I cannot use it
I don’t want the news
I won’t live by it
Sitting outside of town
Everybody’s always down
Tell me why?
Because, they can’t get up
Come on and get up
Up from the waiting room

Sitting in the waiting room (ah)
Sitting in the waiting room (ah)
Sitting in the waiting room (ah)
Sitting in the waiting room (tell me why)
Because, they can’t get up

Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind
Withering my intuition, missing opportunities and I must
Feed my will to feel my moment drawing way outside the lines

Maybe the sun will shine today
The clouds will blow away
Maybe I won’t feel so afraid
I will try to understand either way

Unkle!

But when the night is falling
You cannot find the light (light)
You feel your dreams are 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
We only get what we give

For the rhythm of my heart
Is beating like a drum
With the words “I love you” rolling off my tongue…
Oh, never will I roam
For I know my place is home,
Where the ocean meets the sky
I’ll be sailing.

(Rod Stewart)

So he’ll never roam, however he will be sailing far from home :thinking:

I can’t wait to watch you get older
I can’t wait to meet that first boy that breaks your life
I can’t wait till you realize the family you’ve been born into
I can’t wait to watch you turn from good to bad
I can’t wait to tell you your grandpa made your mommy play stripper while your uncle watched
I can’t wait to tell you I punched your mommy in the chest in front of her new friends
I can’t wait till you realize mommy’s heart is broken
I can’t wait to watch you grow up around the people who broke it

Everyday in the week I’m in a different city
If I stay too long people try to pull me down
They talk about me like a dog
Talkin’ about the clothes I wear
But they don’t realize they’re the ones who’s square

Hey!
And that’s why
You can’t hold me down
I don’t want to be down I gotta move on
Ah

Stone free to do what I please
Stone free to ride the breeze
Stone free I can’t stay
I got to got to got to get away right now

Hendrix, Stone Free

from Here Comes Santa

He doesn’t care if you’re rich or poor
He loves you just the same.
Santa knows that we’re God’s children
And that makes everything right.
