STANDING WITH YOU (lyrics)

The more I tell you you can do this
The more you tell yourself you're useless
Any advice right now is fruitless
You're somewhere only you can go
I won't pretend to know, so
Instead of telling you you'll be alright
I'm just gon' be that someone by your side
Yeah let me be that distant satellite
A constant in the sky
'Cause I'm standing with you tonight
Yeah I will be that voice in your ear
Quietly destroying your fear
You won't even know that I'm here
But I'm standing with you tonight
Oh I will be the pill for your pain
Until the clouds have run out of rain
Close enough but just out of sight
I'm standing with you tonight
Your head is full and yet it's hollow
Don't even think about tomorrow
So if you let me I will follow
Oh if you're gonna go
At least you're gonna know
Instead of telling you you'll be alright
I'm just gon' be that someone by your side
Oh let me be that distant satellite
A constant in the sky
I'm standing with you tonight
Yeah I will be that voice in your ear
Quietly destroying your fear
You won't even know that I'm here
But I'm standing with you tonight
Oh I will be the pill for your pain
Until the clouds have run out of rain
Close enough but just out of sight
I'm standing with you
I know I may not say the right thing
Let me tell you one thing
Yeah 'cause there is one thing
You're wrong about
This world would not be a better place
I don't wanna lose you now
Yeah I will be that voice in your ear
Quietly destroying your fear
Oh you won't even know that I'm here
I'm standing with you tonight
Oh I will be the pill for your pain
Until the clouds have run out of rain
Close enough but just out of sight
I'm standing with you tonight
Oh tonight
I'm standing with you tonight
I'm standing with you tonight

Re: MI songs, movies, poems...

This is lovely @Former-Member. Thanks so much for sharing! Guy Sebastian has some great songs with these sorts of hopeful themes- one of my personal favourites is Choir . You may like the Songs You Love thread & I'm also going to tag @Powderfinger & @Former-Member in case this thread is of interest to them 😊

UNWELL (lyrics)
All day starin' at the ceilin' makin'
Friends with shadows on my wall
All night hearing voices tellin' me
That I should get some sleep
Because tomorrow might be good for somethin'
Hold on, feelin' like I'm headed for a breakdown
And I don't know why
But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know, right now you can't tell
But stay a while and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know, right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be, me
I'm talkin' to myself in public, dodging glances on the train
And I know, I know they've all been talkin' about me
I can hear them whisper, and it makes me think
There must be somethin' wrong with me
Out of all the hours thinkin', somehow I've lost my mind
But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know, right now you can't tell
But stay a while and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know, right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be
I've been talkin' in my sleep
Pretty soon they'll come to get me
Yeah, they're takin' me away
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know, right now you can't tell
But stay a while and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know, right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be yeah, how I used to be
How I used to be
How I used to be
Well, I'm just a little unwell
How I used to be
How I used to be
I'm just a little unwell...

Re: MI songs, movies, poems...

Havn't been listening to any music or watching anything @TideisTurning 

 

My health has taken a massive dive. It's going to take a lot of work and time to get back on track. Any noise at this point makes me scream so I had to stop music and shows.
