music: medicine for the soul.

How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb
Without a soul, my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home 

there is something to be said.
for a way a song.
regardless of its lyrics.
can inspire emotion.
pasion.
feelings.
regardless of what we want to feel or think.
or what logic says.
we can relate to every song ever written.
even if not just because of its lyrics.
but because of raw emotion.
every song has a raw emotion, that on some basic level everybody can relate to.

i applaud evanescence.
they have beautiful songs.
that
- despide the fact i am as happy as larry -
will leave me close to tears.
or with the radio at full ball singing my lungs out.
(usually best when im driving alone. apologies for those who've had to suffer it when i'm not alone)
vague point?
that music, even if it doesnt relate to our situation lyrically, will relate to us.

we will find the two lines that could potentially apply to us.
and feel the whole song is about something completely different then it is.
obviously we have the ability to see that it has a different meaning.
but that is what it will mean to us.
it is due to this.
that we think songs express our emotions.
we listen to them
sing them.
associate them to ourselves.
and in the process - heal.
emotions we wouldn't express, talk about, let alone think about.
slowly pour.
and we are forced to feel.
and as such.
in a manner of speaking.
are expressing our own emotions.

Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life 

oh how i love music.
