The Band Bus

This is a post I've been wanting to do for quite some time, but I've never gotten around to doing it. Now, I won't post the lyrics and then comment about how I think they "make me feel gooder". It'll just be the lyrics, plain and simple. Oh, and where they came from. That might help. This'll probably become a 2 parter, because there's a lot of powerful things said in songs. It's predominately Goo Goo Dolls songs, but they've got a lot to say, and they say it well. It' late and I can't think well, so I know I'm forgetting some key ones, here's the songs I've got thus far...

Name, by the Goo Goo Dolls

And scars are souvenirs you never lose
The past is never far
Did you lose yourself somewhere out there
Did you get to be a star
And don't it make you sad to know that life
Is more than who we are
We grew up way too fast
And now there's nothing to believe
Reruns all become our history
A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio

Acoustic No. 3 by The Goo Goo Dolls

And she wonders where these dreams go
'Cause the world got in her way
What's the point in ever trying
Nothing's changing anyway

Better Days by the Goo Goo Dolls

And you ask me what I want this year
And I try to make this kind and clear
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
Cuz I don't need boxes wrapped in strings
And desire and love and empty things
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days

All These Things That I've Done by the Killers

I am so much older than I can take

I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier

Over and in, last call for sin
While everyone's lost, the battle is won

Fix You by Coldplay (I only chose this as my song because of these lyrics)

When the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
