Boys Like Girls
Two of the top songs that are most inspirational to me at this moment are from the band Boys Like Girls. The songs are "Go" and "Chemicals Collide". They are most motivational to me because I have been struggling to overcome an addiction.
Especially with the song "Go" it relieves my stress, and when I listen to the lyrics it gives me so much strength that I can keep on going, and be strong and get over this all on my own. I cry nearly every time I listen to it because I could have almost written this myself - it's so relate-able. The lyrics in this song is all about getting over something, and finding it within yourself to know that you are strong enough to be better without it.
And "Chemicals Collide" is motivational as well because there is someone in my life now that is also helping me overcome this addictions, and they take me for who I am; it also gives me strength in myself that I can realize how good of a person I really am, and how strong I really can be.
Editor's note: Awesome lyrics, indeed! Highly inspirational, and I can see why. Great choice. I am posting the video and lyrics here for you:
Little change of the heart Little light in the dark Little hope that you just might find your way up out of here 'Cos you've been hiding for days Wasted and wasting away But I got a little hope, today you’ll face your fears
Yeah I know that it’s not easy I know that it’s so hard Follow the lights to the city
And get up and Go, take a chance and be strong Or you could spend your whole life holding on Don’t look back just go Take a breath, move along You could spend your whole life holding on You could spend your whole life holding on
Believe the tunnel can end Believe your body can mend Yeah I know you can make it through 'Cos I believe in you So let’s go put up a fight Let’s go make everything alright Go on and take a shot, go give it all you got
Oh yeah I know that it’s not easy I know that it’s hard Yeah it’s not always pretty
Get up and go, Take a chance and be strong Or you could spend your whole life holding on Don’t look back just go, Take a breath and move along You could spend your whole life holding on You could spend your whole life holding on
Don’t wanna wake up to the telephone ring Are you sitting down? I need to tell you something Enough is enough you can stop waiting to breathe And don’t wait up for me
Get up and go Take a chance and be strong You can spend your whole life holding on
Don’t look back just go Take a breath and move along You could spend your whole life holding on Get up and go Take a chance and be strong Or you could spend your whole life holding on
Don’t look back just go Take a breath, move along Or you could spend your whole life holding on You could spend your whole life holding on Don’t spend your whole life holding on
Loved both those songs. Thanks, Noreen, for sharing your story and inspiring songs here. I have edited your post to put in the video and lyrics of "Go". Hope you enjoy!
