What moves you?

So I have things to share with you... About Music! I have discovered three new songs recently that I want to share because I think they are pretty amazing for various reasons! Below you will find lyrics as well as links to the videos on Youtube. I make no promises to how long the videos will be active. The links could be dead in a day or in months...

What I like to do when I hear new music is to try and find a point in my life that the music could apply to and personalize it so I can try and experience what the artis might have been feeling as they wrote that song. I gives the music so much more feeling inside me, and really helps me appreciate and identify with the song.

Better - Guns n Roses - This addition in no way serves as an endorsment of their new album. I personally don't care for it, but it does have a couple good tunes on it.

No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better, better.
No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better, better

The hardest part this troubled heart has never yet been through now,
To heal the scars that got their start inside someone like you now,
But had I known or I'd been shown back when how long It'd take me,
To break the charms that brought me harm... that,
all but would erase me

I never would nor thought I could
No matter what you'd pay me
replay the part
You stole my heart
I should have known you're crazy

If all I knew was that with you
I'd want someone to save me
It'd be enough, but just my luck
I fell in love and baby all that I wanted was

Now I know you better
You know I'd know better,
Now I know you better

So bittersweet, this tragedy wont ask for absolution,
This melody inside of me, still searches for solution,
A twist of fate, the change of heart kills my infatuation,
A broken heart provides the spark for my determination.

No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better, better
Ooh, no one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better, better

All that I wanted was
I know you know you know better
You know I know you know better
Now you know me better

I never wanted you to be so full of anger,
I never wanted you to be somebody else
I never wanted you to be someone afraid to know themselves
I only wanted you to see things for yourself

All that I wanted was
Now I know you better
Now we all know better
All that I wanted was

If I were you, I'd manage to abhore the invitation
Of promised love that can't keep up with your adoration
Just use your head, and in the end you'll find your inspiration
To choose your steps and won't regret this kind of aggravation

No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better, better
No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better, better

The Raging Storm - Wasp My Brother Randy introduced me to this just earlier today. A HUGE voice on Blackie Lawless! I hope you enjoy

A storm is come
One war of sun and rain - within me
A raging storm
Lost crossroads thundering - in the wind
Dark and son
Who's the only one
To lay claim of me
Altars of store
Righteous temptations
Here at my feet

Give me love
To rage in me can you see?
Only love
Is saving me
Give me love, oh love
That rage in me

It rages on
Of mourn and memories
In the wind
A warring storm
My soul is bargaining - in the end
Is there no sun?
With only love in vain - and it's pain
Hear me oh Lord
Cleanse me evermore with
Your blood of rain

Holy war for my soul
Scars of memories remain
Oh, tell me why am I here
Storms of crossroads and rage

A storm is come

One war of sun and rain - within me

A raging stormLost crossroads thundering - in the windDark and sonWho's the only oneTo lay claim of meAltars of storeRighteous temptationsHere at my feetGive me loveTo rage in me can you see?Only loveIs saving meGive me love, oh loveThat rage in meIt rages onOf mourn and memoriesIn the windA warring stormMy soul is bargaining - in the endIs there no sun?With only love in vain - and it's painHear me oh LordCleanse me evermore withYour blood of rainHoly war for my soulScars of memories remainOh, tell me why am I hereStorms of crossroads and rage

Dream Catch Me - Newton Faulkner This was introduced to me by my coworker Ryan. I am really grateful for discovering this. Just really solid pop music.

Every time

I close my eyes

It's you

And I know now

Who I am

Yea yea yea

And I know now

There's a place I go

When I'm alone

Do anything I want

Be anyone I wanna be

But it is us I see

And I cannot believe I'm fallin

That's where I'm goin

Where are you goin

Hold it close won't let this go

Dream catch me, yea

Dream catch me when I fal

lOr else I won't come back at all

You do so much

That you don't know

It's true

And I know now

Who I am

Yea yea yea

And I know now

There's a place I go

When I'm alone

Do anything I want

Be anyone I wanna be

But it is us I see

And I cannot believe I'm fallin

That's where I'm goin

Where are you goin

Hold it close won't let this go

Dream catch me, yea

Dream catch me when I fall

Or else I won't come back at all

See you as a mountain

A fountain of God

See you as as a descant soul

In the setting sun

You as the sound

Just as silent as none

I'm yours

There's a place I go

When I'm alone

Do anything I want

Be anyone I wanna be

But it is us I see

And I cannot believe I'm fallin

There's a place I go

When I'm alone

Do anything I want

Be anyone I wanna be

But it is us I see

And I cannot believe I'm fallin

That's where I'm goin

Where are you goin

Hold it close won't let this go

Dream catch me, yea

Dream catch me when I fall

Or else I won't come back at all

So, that's kinda what moves me.... What moves you?
