Give it all to see you fly

Thank you to the Saint who has spurred my latest addiction song, "Young" by Hollywood Undead. i always liked My Black Dahlia by them, but i never looked at their other stuff.

Seriously. i'm posting the lyrics. This song is bloody brilliant.

We are young
We are far
Born in this world as it all falls apart
We are strong
We don't belong
Born in this world as it all falls apart

I see the children in the rain like the parade before the pain
I see the love, I see the hate, I see this world that we can make
I see the life, I see the sky, Give it all to see you fly
Yes, we wave this flag of hatred, but you're the ones who made it
Watch the beauty of all our lies passing right before my eyes
I hear the hate in all your words. all the wars to make us hurt
We get so sick of so sick, we never wanted all this
Medication for the kids with no reason to live

So we march to the drums of the dammed as we come
Watch it burn in the sun - we are numb

We are young
We are far
Born in this world as it all falls apart

We are strong
We don't belong
Born in this world as it all falls apart

As we walk among these shadows, in these streets, this field of battle
Take it up, we wear the medal, raise your hands with burning candles
Hear us whisper in the dark, here in the rain you see the spark
Feel the beating of our hearts, fleeting hope as we depart
All together, walk alone against all we've ever known
All we've ever really wanted was a place to call our home
But you take all we are; the innocence of our hearts
Made to kneel before the alter as you tear us apart

So we March to the drums of the dammed as we come
Watch it burn in the sun - we are numb

We are young
We are far
Born in this world as it all falls apart

We are strong
We don't belong
Born in this world as it all falls apart

We will fight or we will fall
Till the angels save us all

Music is music, but some songs become anthems. And even though in the words of My Chem "the anthem won't explain it", it's good as hell that the world has hearts that beat in the same way. i hope everyone finds their anthems, so that when you see someone else pouring their heart to the same melody, you don't feel so alone.

Interesting idea. What is popularity? Being surrounded by relationships with no strings attached, or loving and being loved? i know people, i love knowing people. i love people knowing my name, but i love knowing others more. Knowing a face is beautiful, but knowing a heart means more. Am i a bad person? Am i glutton for emotional punishment? Am i heartsick hormonal semi-teenager? Couldn't tell you. But hey. Lets talk.
