Running by No Doubt<p>Run
Running all the time
Running to the future
With you right by my side.<p>Me
I'm the one you chose
Out of all the people
You wanted me the most
I'm so sorry that I'm falling
Help me up, let's keep on running
Don't let me fall out of love<p>Running, running
As fast as we can
I really hope you make it
(Do you think we'll make it?)
We're running
Keep holding my hand
It's so we don't get separated<p>Be
Be the one I need
Be the one I trust most
Don't stop inspiring me
Sometimes it's hard to keep on running
We work so much to keep it going
Don't make me want to give up<p>Running, running
As fast as we can
I really hope you make it
(Do you think we'll make it?)
We're running, keep holding my hand
It's so we don't get separated<p>[repeat chorus]<p>The Future......<p>[repeat chorus]<p>---------------------------<p>It's a really pretty-sounding song, too. And for those still in the throes of the hell of D-day [img]images/icons/frown.gif" border="0[/img] :<p>Don't Speak by No Doubt<p>You and me
We used to be together
Every day together always<p>I really feel
I'm losing my best friend
I can't believe
This could be the end<p>It looks as though you're letting go
And if it's real
Well I don't want to know<p>Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts<p>Our memories
They can be inviting
But some are altogether
Mighty frightening<p>As we die, both you and I
With my head in my hands
I sit and cry<p>Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts<p>It's all ending
I gotta stop pretending who we are<p>You and me
I can see us dying...are we?<p>Hush, hush, darling<p>[ May 13, 2002: Message edited by: Conqueror ]</p>

Don't Speak hit close to home for me too....cried every time I heard it last summer... especially the "I'm losing my best friend"...<p>Lot's of songs to cheer me up & bring me down that is for sure.. the new U2 song came out around that time that I helped me tell myself to get "myself together" and try to get over it...<p>It was "Stuck In a Moment" by U2<p>lyrics are:<p>I am not afraid of anything in this world
There's nothing you can throw at me that I haven't already heard
I'm just trying to find, a decent melody
A song that I can sing, in my own company<p>I never thought you were a fool
But darling, look at you
You gotta stand up straight, carry your own weight
These tears are going nowhere, baby<p>You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it
Don't say that later will be better now you're stuck in the moment
And you can't get out of it<p>I will not forsake, the colors that you bring
But the nights you filled with fireworks
They left you with nothing
I am still enchanted by the light you brought to me
I still listen through yours ears, and through your eyes I can see<p>And you are such a fool
To worry like you do
I know it's tough, and you can never get enough
Of what you don't really need now&#8230;.my oh my<p>You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it
Oh love look at you now
You've got yourself stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it<p>I was unconscious, half asleep
The water is warm till you discover how deep&#8230;
I wasn't jumping&#8230;for me it was a fall
It's a long way down, to nothing at all<p>You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it
Don't say that later will be better now you're stuck in the moment
And you can't get out of it<p>And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if our way should falter
Along the stony pass<p>And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if our way should falter
Along the stony pass
It's just a moment
This time will pass

Brokenhearted, Wings, Hurtbuthealing,<p>Isn't it interesting how we go through stages, how the "Don't Speak" stage eventually turns into the "you better tell me everything" stage?<p>I really identified with the "Running" song because I feel like I'm running ahead of him in understanding all these principles (and most important what I can and cannot live with) and looking back, hoping he'll catch up so I won't give up.<p>Hurtbuthealing, thanks for the U2 lyrics. I haven't heard that one, but it is perfect for where I am now, too. I keep telling myself to find ways to live so that I am not defined by this. I think it was in one of Barbara Johnson's books where someone thought of the horrible times in her life like something written in parentheses in the story of her life. She described her desperation to reach the "ending" parenthesis, so her real life could resume. Hope we all get to our ) ASAP!

I just had my d-day, so this is new to me. Here is the song I've been listing to a lot.<p>Soundgarden
Superunknown (1994)
Fell On Black Days<p>Whatsoever I've feared has
Come to life
Whatsoever I've fought off
Became my life
Just when everyday
Seemed to greet
Me with a smile
Sunspots have faded
And now I'm doing time
Cause I fell on
Black days <p>Whomsoever I've cured
I've sickened now
Whomsoever I've cradled
I've put you down
I'm a search light soul
They say but I can't
See it in the night
I'm only faking
When I get it right
Cause I fell on
Black days
How would I know
That this could be my fate <p>So what you wanted to
See good has made you blind
And what you wanted to
Be yours has made it
Mine
So don't you lock up
Something that you
Wanted to see fly
Hands are for shaking
No not tying <p>I sure don't
Mind a change
But I fell on black
Days
How would I know
That this could be
My fate
