There are like 2 songs, yes two fucking songs, that have the ability to inspire me. Maybe more. This is one of them. The other I may post some time in the future. But the reason this song is even inspiring to me at all is because the weight of the words used. None of them are empty. They each deliver that feeling you have when you are depressed or feel down and it doesn't paint them as pretty. Nor does it make it as gritty as they can be, but after all, its meant to inspire or help a listener. The song also doesn't make it seem like being happy or happier means you've gotta be completely fucking optimistic about living. Just that you should keep on trying. And in my experience, thats all there has ever really never been: the desire to keep trying. This reminds me of that scene in The Dark Knight when Bruce is feeling afflicted about what to do as a hero for Gotham City. He asks Alfred "People are dying, what would you have me do?" And I swear to GOd one word has never been so appropriate as when Alfred replies, simply saying, "Endure." I got chills the first time I heard that because I was dealing with some female I've mentioned earlier on this blog and frankly, it was what I needed to hear. God that movie was great. Anyways, here's the song: "Dirty Road" by Days of The New.
