    AC\DC 'Highway to Hell' sums it all up nicely. :)

    The Logical Song
    Supertramp


    When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful,
    a miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.
    And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily,
    joyfully, playfully watching me.
    But then they sent me away to teach me how to be sensible,
    logical, responsible, practical.
    And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,
    clinical, intellectual, cynical.

    There are times when all the world's asleep,
    the questions run too deep
    for such a simple man.
    Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
    I know it sounds absurd
    but please tell me who I am.

    Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,
    liberal, fanatical, criminal.
    Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're
    acceptable, respectable, presentable, a vegetable!

    At night, when all the world's asleep,
    the questions run so deep
    for such a simple man.
    Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
    I know it sounds absurd
    but please tell me who I am
    who I am
    who I am
    who I am.......

    Unforgiven by Metallica also for me.

    Born (Again) To Be Wild

    Get your bibles open
    Head out on the highway
    Looking for repenters
    Or whoever comes our way

    ok, so I made it up...just don't sue me.

    Fe203girl I forgot about that song. I was like 18 when that CD came out and I would play that song over and over again because that was how I felt to be a JW.

    "Spiders"The piercing radiant moon,
    The storming of poor June,
    All the life running through her hair,
    Approaching guiding light,
    Our shallow years in fright,
    Dreams are made winding through my head,
    Through my head,
    Before you know,
    Awake,
    Your lives are open wide,
    The V-chip gives them sight,
    All the life running through her hair,
    The spiders all in tune,
    The evening of the moon,
    Dreams are made winding through my head,
    Through my head,
    Before you know,
    Awake
    Through my head,
    Before you know,
    Before you know I will be waiting all awake,
    Dreams are made winding through her hair,
    Dreams are made winding through her hair.

    This song is by System of a Down and it makes me shiver when I listen to it.

    I just thought of one since I have been out quite awhile the song that sums it for me is The Dance by Garth Brookes I could have stayed in and not had the pain of my family cutting me off but I would have missed the dance. I would have missed out on all of my wonderful experiences and the Joy I have in life now. I am so glad I didn't miss the dance.
