"Free to stand beside the ocean in moonlight
And light myself a smoke beneath the dark Atlantic sky."
I do realize that I have done Yellowcard lyrics before, but these lines have stuck with me. They are from the song "Back Home" by Yellowcard. Yes, they are from their Ocean Avenue album, but I encourage you to listen to the acoustic version of this song.
No, I do not smoke, but the image that these words illustrates in my mind makes sense. I see a person standing on the beach, thinking. This person is feeling completely alone. Whether they no longer have someone in their life or they just do not feel like they belong in the world, they have no one. I specifically think of myself when I listen to this song. I think of all of the times when I have felt entirely alone. I think of when no one can truly understand what I am going through, and I feel so incredibly detached from the world.
"Another sunny day beneath this cloudless sky
Sometimes I wish it would rain here."
Peace and Love. Leah.
No matter who you are, music is present in your life. The lyrics of songs have had an impact on my life, and I am here to share them with you.
