(1) Monsoon1
(2) Tokio Hotel2
(3) I'm staring at a broken door3
There's nothing left here anymore4
My room is cold5
It's making me insane6
I've been waiting here so long7
But now the moment seems to come,8
I see the black clouds coming up again.9
Running through the monsoon10
Beyond the world,11
To the end of time,12
Where the rain won't hurt13
Fighting the storm,14
Into the blue,15
And when I lose myself I think of you,16
Together we'll be running somewhere new17
Through the monsoon.18
Just me and you19
A half moon's fading from my sight20
I see a vision in its light21
But now it's gone and left me so alone22
I know I have to find you now23
Can hear your name, I don't know how24
Why can't we make this darkness feel like home?25
Running through the monsoon26
Beyond the world27
To the end of time28
Where the rain won't hurt29
Fighting the storm30
Into the blue31
And when I loose myself I think of you32
Together we'll be running somewhere new33
And nothing can hold me back from you34
Through the monsoon35
Hey! Hey!36
I'm fighting all this power37
Coming in my way38
Let it send me straight to you39
I'll be running night and day40
I'll be with you soon41
Just me and you42
We'll be there soon43
So soon44
Running through the monsoon45
Beyond the world46
To the end of time47
Where the rain won't hurt48
Fighting the storm49
Into the blue50
And when I lose myself I think of you51
Together we'll be running somewhere new52
And nothing can hold me back from you53
Through the monsoon54
Through the monsoon55
Just me and you56
Through the monsoon57
Just me and you58
(4) I like this song, because it has a soft tune to it and expresses emotion. It's about him overcoming struggles, hence the storm and monsoon, and the "you" being his support to strive on through the hard times. It expresses affection and a kind of love, that can over come what hard things may come at them. They are running towards a new world; a new life.59

(4) What this song means to me, is a person saying that he is ready now for his life to end, and if it were to end at this moment, he'd have no regrets for what he's done. He is looking back and saying "When it all ends, will we have had our fun, done what we wanted with our lives, and say i tried my best?" and when he says scream your heart out, it makes me think that it says be who you are and nothing more, dont be afraid to hide the real you and be damn proud of yourself, scream it from the rooftops... I don't know if thats what it means, but that how i view it ^^109

(1) Return to Pooh Corner112
(2) Kenny Loggins113
(3) Christopher Robin and I walked along114
Under branches lit up by the moon115
Posing our questions to Owl and Eeyore116
As our days disappeared all too soon117
But I've wandered much further today than I should118
And I can't seem to find my way back to the Wood119
So help me if you can120
I've got to get back121
To the House at Pooh Corner by one122
You'd be surprised123
There's so much to be done124
Count all the bees in the hive125
Chase all the clouds from the sky126
Back to the days of Christopher Robin and Pooh127
Winnie the Pooh doesn't know what to do128
Got a honey jar stuck on his nose129
He came to me asking help and advice130
From here no one knows where he goes131
So I sent him to ask of the Owl if he's there132
How to loosen a jar from the nose of a bear133
Help me if you can134
I've got to get back135
To the House at Pooh Corner by one136
You'd be surprised137
There's so much to be done138
Count all the bees in the hive139
Chase all the clouds from the sky140
Back to the days of Christopher Robin and Pooh141
It's hard to explain how a few precious things142
Seem to follow throughout all our lives143
After all's said and done I was watching my son144
Sleeping there with my bear by his side145
So I tucked him in, I kissed him and as I was going146
I swear that the old bear whispered "Boy welcome home"147
Believe me if you can148
I've finally come back149
To the House at Pooh Corner by one150
What do you know151
There's so much to be done152
Count all the bees in the hive153
Chase all the clouds from the sky154
Back to the days of Christopher Robin155
Back to the ways of Christopher Robin156
Back to the days of Pooh157
(4) What this song means to me is to preserve the innocence you only get once. When your a child you are carefree and so innocent, but if you grow up to fast, then you won't ever be able to "return to the wood" He is looking at his son and remember when he was a child, and innocent and how he wants to return to his days of childhood. Its really a very inspirational song.158

(1) Hate Me161
(2) Blue October162
(3) I have to block out thoughts of you so I don’t lose my head163
They crawl in like a cockroach leaving babies in my bed164
Dropping little reels of tape to remind me that I’m alone165
Playing movies in my head that make a porno feel like home166
There's a burning in my pride, a nervous bleeding in my brain167
An ounce of peace is all I want for you. Will you never call again?168
And will you never say that you love me just to put it in my face?169
And will you never try to reach me?170
It is I that wanted space171
Hate me today172
Hate me tomorrow173
Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you174
Hate me in ways175
Yeah ways hard to swallow176
Hate me so you can finally see what’s good for you177
I’m sober now for 3 whole months it’s one accomplishment that you helped me with178
The one thing that always tore us apart is the one thing I won’t touch again179
In a sick way I want to thank you for holding my head up late at night180
While I was busy waging wars on myself, you were trying to stop the fight181
You never doubted my warped opinions on things like suicidal hate182
You made me compliment myself when it was way too hard to take183
So I’ll drive so fucking far away that I never cross your mind184
And do whatever it takes in your heart to leave me behind185
Hate me today186
Hate me tomorrow187
Hate me for all the things I didn’t do for you188
Hate me in ways189
Yeah ways hard to swallow190
Hate me so you can finally see what’s good for you191
And with a sad heart I say bye to you and wave192
Kicking shadows on the street for every mistake that I had made193
And like a baby boy I never was a man194
Until I saw your blue eyes cry and I held your face in my hand195
And then I fell down yelling “Make it go away!”196
Just make a smile come back and shine just like it used to be197
And then she whispered “How can you do this to me?”198
Hate me today199
Hate me tomorrow200
Hate me for all the things I didn’t do for you201
Hate me in ways202
Yeah ways hard to swallow203
Hate me so you can finally see what’s good for you204
For you205
For you206
For you207
(4) This song is exceptionally inspirational, because you know that Justin really put his heart into it. When this was written, it was after because his mother died in an accident, after making a phone call to him about how concerned she was for him. These are his feelings towards everything he did to his mother, his regrets and his sorrows, and how he felt like he was unworthy of her love. I like the song, because I too can feel a sorrow from it, just knowing that he cared so much for his mother and she passed away like she did and he was so remorseful. It is something to make you reflect on your life and say "If this person were to die today, would I regret the way I've been treating them?"208

(1) Youth of the Nation211
(2) P.O.D.212
(3) Last day of the rest of my life213
I wish I would've known214
Cause I didn't kiss my mama goodbye215
I didn't tell her that I loved her and how much I care216
Or thank my pops for all the talks217
And all the wisdom he shared218
Unaware, I just did what I always do219
Everyday, the same routine220
Before I skate off to school221
But who knew that this day wasn't like the rest222
Instead of taking a test223
I took two to the chest224
Call me blind, but I didn't see it coming225
Everybody was running226
But I couldn't hear nothing227
Except gun blasts, it happened so fast228
I don't really know this kid229
Even though I sit by him in class230
Maybe this kid was reaching out for love231
Or maybe for a moment232
He forgot who he was233
Or maybe this kid just wanted to be hugged234
Whatever it was235
I know it's because236
[chorus:]237
We are, We are, the youth of the nation238
Little Suzy, she was only twelve239
She was given the world240
With every chance to excel241
Hang with the boys and hear the stories they tell242
She might act kind of proud243
But no respect for herself244
She finds love in all the wrong places245
The same situations246
Just different faces247
Changed up her pace since her daddy left her248
Too bad he never told her249
She deserved much better250
Johnny boy always played the fool251
He broke all the rules252
So you would think he was cool253
He was never really one of the guys254
No matter how hard he tried255
Often thought of suicide256
It's kind of hard when you ain't got no friends257
He put his life to an end258
They might remember him then259
You cross the line and there's no turning back260
Told the world how he felt261
With the sound of a gat262
[chorus]263
Who's to blame for the lives that tragedies claim264
No matter what you say265
It don't take away the pain266
That I feel inside, I'm tired of all the lies267
Don't nobody know why268
It's the blind leading the blind269
I guess that's the way the story goes270
Will it ever make sense271
Somebody's got to know272
There's got to be more to life than this273
There's got to be more to everything274
I thought exists275
[chorus]276
(4) He is saying how if he were to die he'd want to go down letting everyone he loved know that he cares about them, and that the person who'd killed him wouldn't have done it to be cruel, but because there was something in his life that pained him. He tells about scenarios in the real word, like young girls who lost a parent and felt like they lacked love and tried to find it through sex. Another boy tried hard to fit in, but remained an outcast, and was depressed, and so he killed himself. It says that no matter who you blame, people are always going to feel the pain, and the world is lying, and people are becoming blind and corrupt. He is saying that there has to be more to life than all this tragedy... I like this song because everyone can relate to it; we all feel pain and we all do wrongs to try and make ourselves feel better, and no matter if you blame us for it, it isn't really entirely our fault.277

Ahh, first off thank you so much for entering. But you know what? THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR PUTTING "Hate Me" by Blue October on your list. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THAT SONG. I always forgot to download it though, which isn't a surprise considering I'm a forgetful person (runs in the woman's side of the family). You get brownie points for that.

I haven't heard some of the other songs, but thanks for putting in the links. I'm going to listen to the songs tomorrow or Tuesday probably since I'm to tired tonight. (You got extra brownie points for the links too!)
XD
Thank you again for entering. I'll let you know how the inspiring part of everything goes.
