themadkat Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 I would hardly call this band Objectivist, but my "theme song" so to speak is by No Doubt off their sleeper album The Beacon Street Collection: "That's Just Me" You think that I will change but you know that will never be I'm just that way, and that's just me Well it's just the way I am and I am doin' all I can why can't you see, I just can't change I could care less, what you see, I'm just nevertheless here for me... You always get what you want but still keep lookin', I guess you just never get what you need With your eyes wide open you still keep lookin' for your dreams, that's just me Doesn't matter what you say cause my confidence will lead the way words will never do, sad but true And if I didn't act this way well it just wouldn't be the same and that wouldn't do, cause I'm not you I could care less, what you see, I'm just nevertheless here for me... You always get what you want but still keep lookin' I guess you just never get what you need With your eyes wide open you still keep lookin' for your dreams, that's just me With your eyes wide open you still keep lookin' for your dreams, that's just me That's just me, that's just me Well it's just the way I am I am no Larry or a Sam why can't you see, I'm just that way Well there it is it's right here, so crystal clear, well there it is it's right here So crystal clear in front of my face You always get what you want but never get what you need you want it I guess you're just nevertheless lookin' for your dreams I could care less what you see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiberTodd Posted June 1, 2008 Report Share Posted June 1, 2008 This one's by Asia, called "Extraordinary Life." Very O'ist type of lyrics. I bolded my favorite passage. A perfect day Or so I say From where I'm standing This rollercoaster ride Fate will decide The ending Love everlasting Or lost on the way The smiles And the frowns The ups and downs Of fortune turning The twists and turns The lessons learned The bridges burning Nights to remember And never forget Go, seize the day Wake up and say This is an Extraordinary life Enjoy today Come what may This is an Extraordinary life I gave it all My cards have fallen But I'm still alive And in the end Believe my friend I will survive Glory and heartache And some of the joy Go, seize the day Wake up and say This is an Extraordinary life Enjoy today Come what may This is an Extraordinary life All of the good times and all of the bad Responsibility is totally Mine I know I rightly stand accused But I believe That I can change Yes I can change my world Go, seize the day Wake up and say This is an Extraordinary life Enjoy today Come what may This is an Extraordinary life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuzal atla creala iuday Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 Stand-by Rascal Flatts: You feel like a candle, in a hurricane, just like a picture, with a broken frame, alone and helpless, like you've lost your fight but you'll be alright, you'll be alright 'Cause when push comes to shove, you find what you're made of you might think that you'll break that it's all you can take on your knees, you look up decide you had enough, you get mad, you get strong, wipe your hands, shake it off then you stand! Life's like a novel, with the end ripped out, the edge of a canyon, with only one way down, take what you're given, before it's gone; start holding on, keep holding on 'Cause when push comes to shove, you find what you're made of you might think that you'll break that it's all you can take on your knees, you look up decide you had enough, you get mad, you get strong, wipe your hands, shake it off then you stand! Every time you get up and get back in the race, one more small piece of you starts to fall into place 'Cause when push comes to shove, you find what you're made of you might think that you'll break that it's all you can take on your knees, you look up decide you had enough, you get mad, you get strong, wipe your hands, shake it off then you stand!
