Music is what feelings sound like.� ~Author Unknown
I chose this quote because I'm really involved in music. I also chose this because I believe that music has saved a lot of people, music is a way to escape from reality, in a legal, non-harming way. Music does release emotions in people to where they never thought they would be able to do so. Lyrics in a song are mainly what we relate to, this is because music is so diverse. There are so many different songs that we all can relate to. There are the stereotypical Country songs that talk about, "My dog died, my truck broke down, my wife left me, my girlfriend found out I had a wife, I shot a man in Georgia, and thought I'd put it in there," kind of songs. Then there are songs that can mean so many different things to many different people, such as Mariah Carey's song "Bye Bye" to me it resembled a friend and I no longer being friends, we have made up, but it also means when my grandmother died. Songs like that can have different meanings to them for different people. A song that is very popular that means different things to people is, "Because You Loved Me" by Celine Dion. To many it can mean just like it says, because you loved me, you made me stronger by doing all these great things for me, thank you. To others it can mean because you loved me, I am who I am, and it's sad that you're gone. Just know that if you can't personally say something to someone whom you have hurt, and you can't come up with the words yourself, search for them through music, I know personally it has helped me so much. A friend of mine and I were not talking for the longest time, and so I wrote a song about it, mainly to help myself through it, but I showed the song to this said friend, and things are getting better between us. So no matter what, lyrics are the words that cannot be spoken.
