I have on my therepy CD. lol Collective Soul’s Disciplined Breakdown is always the CD I turn to when I have any sort of aprehension, worry or anything else bringing me down. It has always worked and has gotten me through the worst periods of my life(from deaths to depression). I really do thank this band so much for all they have done for me. I would not be who I am today with out them. I honestly believe that. So much of the time I was discovering who I am was spent with their first 3 CD’s… Some of my best friends I actually met because of our common interest in the band. lol I’m still sometimes known as the Collective Soul guy because I’d always listen to them and even did projects in English classes… 🙂 Ed was even the reason I started growing my hair(and we all know how much a part of me that is!). They are one of the few constants in my life… they have always influenced me and still do so much. My life even seemed to reflect the themes in an external way too(i.e. Blender for 2000-2001).
End VENT. 😉

And now for the song that is my theme :D:
BLAME:
You pushed me down
For all the world to see
I guess that’s your price
For my loyalty
So while you’re tasting sin
And swallowing pain
Don’t look at me
To take your blame
When you’re willing to render
To the guilt you concede
When truth is your reason
Then lay that blame on me
When you unveil a conscience
And with peace you agree
When love is your constant
Then lay that blame on me
You lay me out
In hopes that I’d wilt away
But strength rained down
And love provided shade
So while the pageant of lies
Still glow from your tongue
Don’t blame me for
Your Kingdom Come
Question your answers
Truth has no anger
Gather up your words
Redemption now offered
