I agree, 'Hurt' is a very powerful and moving song - I was listening to it last weekend and thinking how spot on the lyrics were.
Angel of sadness by A Camp is another that always really strikes me....
Something's watching over me
There's someone in
My house that I can't see
I've asked her many times to leave
She tells me she's not evil
In my hours of confidence
When feeling real and
Worthy of my friends
When I let go of my defence
She's waiting in a corner
Angel of sadness
Leave me alone
Save me some hours
To try on my own
When the music is over
The silence is on
You know I will be yours alone
So pick me up
And carry me home
Life with her is getting hard
It's like I'm not the
Driver of my own car
I'm not the holder of my credit card
Oh Jesus, make me sober
Misery comes and lovers go
I lose myself and
Sometimes I don't know
She says I've always told you so
But I'll stay with you forever
Angel of sadness
Leave me alone
Save me some hours
To try on my own
When the music is over
The silence is on
You know I will be yours alone
So pick me up
And carry me home
Angel of sadness
Angel of grief
Save me some hours
Then please can you leave
When the music is over
The silence is on
I'll be completely on my own
But I'll work it out
And find me a home
.... I don't think anyone could write those lyrics that hasn't suffered with depression.... xx
