Music...




All You Did Was Save My Life - Our Lady Peace

You, looked at me as you walked in the room
Like the red sea, you split me open
Somehow I knew these wings were stolen
All you did was save my life
Tried to run but I could'nt move
Well I paid for these concrete shoes
Like a singer that sings the blues
You saw hope in the hopeless

I'm not dying
All you did was save my life
Pulled me out of that flat line
Put the heartbeat back inside
I'm not dying
All you did was get me through, I owe every breath to you
Heart and soul unparalyzed, all you did was save my life
Save my life

I'm not for sale but I've been sold
The more I hear the less I know
The lies are swallowed whole
In there insignificance
The story's been told a million times, but it's different when it's your life
I won the lottery tonight, the lottery tonight

I'm not dying
All you did was save my life
Pulled me out of that flat line
Put the heartbeat back inside
I'm not dying
All you did was get me through, I owe every breath to you
Heart and soul unparalyzed, all you did was save my life
Save my life

I started to come around, the dogs are backing down
I'm not afraid to see, the devil's gone underground
This tightropes been cut down, and i can finally breathe
You, looked at me as you walked in the room
Like the red sea you split me open
Somehow I knew these wings were stolen

I'm not dying
All you did was save my life
Pulled me out of that flat line,
put the heartbeat back inside
I'm not dying

All you did was get me through, I owe every breath to you
Heart and soul unparalyzed, all you did was save my life
All you did was save my life
Put the heart beat back inside
All you did was save my life
Put the heart beat back inside
All you did was save my life


I do not understand how people can listen to crappy, meaningless music when there is stuff like this out there. I mean really, why would you want to listen to music if you aren't getting anything out of it? REAL musicians are trying to inspire others, not just make money like the rap and pop stars that are popular these days.

When I listen to music I was something real, something that gives me insight or peace. This song chokes me up every time I hear it, and I'm not going to lie, I can't stop listening to it.
