Song quotes are okay?

These are two songs that kept me going when I was at my lowest and wanted to just give up:

Someday I'll Be Saturday Night

Oh, tuesday just might go my way
It cant get worse than yesterday
Thursdays, fridays aint been kind
But somehow Ill survive

Hey, man Im alive Im takin each day and night at a time
Yeah Im down, but I know Ill get by
Hey hey hey hey, man gotta live my life
Im gonna pick up all the pieces and whats left of my pride
Im feelin like a monday, but someday Ill be saturday night

Saturday night here we go
Some day Ill be saturday night
Ill be back on my feet, Ill be doin alright
It may not be tomorrow baby, thats ok
I aint goin down, gonna find a way, hey hey hey


Keep the Faith

Faith: you know youre gonna live thru the rain
Lord you got to keep the faith
Faith: dont let your love turn to hate
Right now we got to
Keep the faith
Keep the faith
Keep the faith
Lord we got to keep the faith

(Bon Jovi)

LOL ganmo, I fully believe you, but it's a bit weird that a Bon Jovi song kept you going?

The words...about not giving up...holding onto your faith, what little you might have...that sort of thing. It was a rough time in my life and I needed something to keep me going...those words helped me, believe it or not. :)

I'm glad it did :) I guess music & lyrics mean different things to different people :)

Anime Dad...

I'm not too much of a bon jovi fan...but the whole thing about not giving up...that's what made those songs meaningful to me.

But yeah, you're right - music & lyrics mean different things to different people. :victory:

One more:

gStrength is Happiness. Strength is itself victory. In weakness and cowardice there is no happiness. When you wage a struggle, you might win or you might lose. But regardless of the short-term outcome, the very fact of your continuing to struggle is proof of your victory as a human being.h

It's void in your case, since you don't read. :P

If there's associated pictures/illustrations, e.g, Marvel Comics/car magazines, then I'll read. :mrgreen:

Or male mice. :beaten: But he created Mickey Mouse like God created Man, and God loves the Human creation best, so I guess it works. ;)

Found another quote out of my old school's magazine. (I dont really know if they said this or not...once again...)
