An ode to friends in strife
A lot of people I know are going through some big changes, problems and issues. In these times, some songs ring true.
For me, these include;
The Bouncing Souls – Better Things
Here is wishing you the bluest skies
Hoping something better comes tomorrow
Hoping all the verses rhyme
The very best of choruses tooFollow all the doubt and sadness
I know that better things are on their wayHere is hoping all the days ahead
Won’t be as bitter as the ones behind you
Be an optimist instead
And somehow happiness will find youForget what happened yesterday
I know that better things are on their wayIt’s really good to see you rocking out and having fun
Living like you’ve just begun
Accept your life and what it brings
I hope tomorrow you find better things
I know tomorrow you’ll find better thingsHere is wishing you the bluest skies
Hoping something better comes tomorrow
Hoping all the verses rhyme
The very best of choruses tooFollow all the doubt and sadness
I know that better things are on their wayIt’s really good to see you rocking out and having fun
Living like you’ve just begun
Accept your life and what it brings
I hope tomorrow you find better things
I know tomorrow you’ll find better things
I know tomorrow you’ll find better thingsForget what happened yesterday
I know that better things are on their wayI know you got a lot of good things happening up ahead
The past is gone, it’s all been said
So here’s to what the future brings
I hope tomorrow you’ll find better things
I hope tomorrow you’ll find better things
I hope tomorrow you’ll find better things
I hope tomorrow you’ll find better things
I know tomorrow you’ll find better things
The Bouncing Souls – Night Train
Goodbye to me and you.
Goodbye to the life we knew.
One last long embrace.
Let go and walk on through.I’m leaving everything behind for a peace that I can’t find.
The ghosts that roam this house
like winter air right through our souls.
And it feels like dying.
It just feels like time to go.Goin down south to dream another dream.
Maybe check out Memphis, Tennessee.
Take the night train and an extra pair of jeans.
Can’t think of anything else I really need.
And all my experiences ride with me.This town is dead to me.
And I can’t stop chasing my dreams.
I love you more than anything,
but what you want I could never be.
I love you more than anything,
but only alone can we both be free.Goodbye to me and you.
Goodbye to the life we knew.
Wipe the tears from your eyes.
Let go and walk on through.
