Life Track

So I have made a soundtrack of my life right now.
My most played song is of course "Somebody that I use to know." Lots to be explained behind that but I'm not going into it. But it is really my song right now.
"On my Own" by Ashes Remain has been a most played song for a while.
"Some nights" by Fun. Mostly just because it's catchy and gets stuck in my head.
"We are never ever getting back together." Also because it's catchy and the video is hysterical but it has some stuff behind it.
"Busted heart" by For King and Country.
"What doesn't kill you makes you stronger" by Kelly Clarkson
Some of these songs are really self explanatory as to why they are a big deal in my life. Music really is my escape and so they describe me so well. I may not be an open book but look at my most played on Itunes and you'll figure me out pretty quickly.
"Why don't you love me." by Hot Chelle Rae
"Bombshell Blond" and "Take it all away" by Owl City. Like them both for two totally different reasons.
"Wide awake" by Katy Perry
"Last Train Home" by Ryan Star.
Now mind you some of these songs don't express all my feelings they are just good when I have feelings.
"Waiting outside the lines" By Greyson Chance
"Love you til the End" by the Pogues
"Someday came Today" by Chris Pine
"I won't Give Up" by Jason Mraz
And I know a lot of these songs are secular but music just makes me better. Or just helps me express myself. it always has. Why do you think people write songs? It's easier to express through music than it is to come right out and say it. I think that's how I'm going to do things from now on. I have a problem with you, I need to tell you something, I need to let something out? I'm just going to send you a song that best expresses that point.
My music choices change based on my mood, my attitude, my awakeness. It all just varies. But in the end my point is: Music. That's how I do things. I sing, I dance, I cry, I listen to one track over and over again. I know all the words. I know what it means. I feel the feelings in the song. It becomes a part of me. That's why I love choir so much. It's how I express everything. Worship, heartache, love, disappointment. It's all through song.
These songs that I have named tonight are not all the ones that I listen to, but they are the ones that have stood out to me and meant a lot to me for a while. My soundtrack to my life could just go on and on. There are so many songs I love that mean a lot to me.
Each one of my close friends has a song to me. We each have our song. It's not weird or anything. It's not just a bf/gf thing. My friends each have their songs. Why? because if the song reminds me of a friend it will make me smile and make me want to listen to it and remember my friend. It's a happy thing. If I dub a song for you, than take it cuz that's a big deal.
Music. It's a big deal to me.
That's all.
