Inspirational Song Lyrics

Do you like a song that has inspirational lyrics? I have lots and I will post them but not all at once. Please post yours.

Nickelback - If Today Was Your Last Day
If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment as your last
And leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you had, if today was your last day?
What if, what if, today was your last day?

[Mighty_Modders]

Hmm...the original for me was Live Forever by Oasis:

Maybe I will never be
All the things that I want to be
But now is not the time to cry
Now`s the time to find out why
I think you`re the same as me
We see things they`ll never see
You and I are gonna live forever

but more recently it has turned towards She Bangs the Drums by the Stone Roses:

Kiss me where the sun dont shine
The past was yours
But the futures mine
You're all out of time

which i guess kinda shows a personal journey or something...

I just love the whole of 'My Immortal' by Evanescence, 'I will Follow You Into The Dark' by Death Cab For Cutie, and 'Pressure' by Paramore.

Swing Life Away - Rise Against

Am I loud and clear or am I breaking up?
Am I still your charm or am I just bad luck?
Are we getting closer, are we just getting more lost?

I'll show you mine if you show me yours first
Let's compare scars I'll tell you whose is worse
Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words

We live on front porches and swing life away
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave 'til the end
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand

I've been here so long; think that its time to move
The winter's so cold summer's over too soon
so let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow

I've got some friends, some that I hardly know
But we've had some times I wouldn't trade for the world
We chase these days down with talks of the places that we will go

I'll show you mine if you show me yours first
Let's compare scars I'll tell you whose is worse
Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words

Celine Dion - Because you loved me
You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you

Mariah Carey - Hero
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

Mariah Carey - One Sweet Day
And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day

Miley Cyrus - I miss you
You used to call me your dreamer
And now I'm living out my dream
Oh how I wish you could see
Everything that's happening for me
I'm thinking back on the past
It's true that time is flying by too fast

Jem - 24 hours
Been given 24 hours to tie up loose ends, to make amends
His eyes said it all I started to fall and the silence deafened
Head spinning round no time to sit down just wanted to run and run and run
Be careful they say don't wish life away,
now I've one day
And I can't believe
How I've been wasting my time
In 24 hours they'll be laying flowers on my life, it's over tonight
I'm not messing no I need your blessing and your promise to live free
please do it for me

Thanks for all your replies. Here's another favourite lyrics.

Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah
Well maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who'd OUT DREW YA
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Starship - Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now
And we can build this dream together
Standing strong forever
Nothings gonna stop us now
And if this world runs out of lovers
Well still have each other
Nothings gonna stop us, nothings gonna stop us now

The following lyrics might not seem inspirational to all you guys, but to me they are, because I feel theirs been alot of times in my life that I have been betrayed so I find it inspirational.

Alicia Keys and Jack White - Another Way To Die
Yeah, a door left open, a woman walking by
A drop in the water, a look in your eye
A phone on the table, a man on your side
Or someone that you think you can trust
It's just another way to die

Your Guardian Angel - The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
When I see your smile,
Tears roll down my face
I can't replace.
And now that I'm strong, I have figured out,
How this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul.
And I know I'll find deep inside me,
I can be the one.

I will never let you fall. (let you fall.)
I'll stand up with you forever.
I'll be there for you through it all. (through it all.)
Even if saving you sends me to heaven.

It's okay,
It's okay,
It's okay-ay-ay-ay-ay.

Seasons are changing,
And waves are crashing,
And stars are falling all for us.
Days grow longer and nights grow shorter,
I can show you I'll be the one.

I will never let you fall. (let you fall.)
I'll stand up with you forever.
I'll be there for you through it all. (through it all.)
Even if saving you sends me to heaven.

'Cause you're my, you're my, my
My true love, my whole heart.
Please don't throw that away.
'Cause I'm here... for you!
Please don't walk away and,
Please tell me you'll stay!

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh!
Stay!
Whoa-oh!

Use me as you will!
Pull my strings just for a thrill!
And I know I'll be okay,
Though my skies are turning grey!

I will never let you fall!
I'll stand up with you forever!
I'll be there for you through it all,
Even if saving you sends me to heaven!

I Miss You - Blink 182

Hello there the angel from my nightmare
The shadow in backround of the morgue
The unsespecting victim of darkness in the valley
We can live like Jack and Sally if we want
Where you can always find me
And we'll have Halloween on Christmas
And in the night we'll wish this never ends
We'll wish this never end

Where are you and I'm so sorry
I cannot sleep I cannot dream tonight
I need somebody and always
This sick strange darkness comes creeping on so haunting everytime
And as I stared I counted the webs from all the spiders
catching things and eating their insides
Like indecision to call you
And hear your voice of treason
Will you come home and stop this pain tonight
stop this pain tonight

3 Doors Down - Away From The Sun

It's down to this, I've got to make this life make sense, can anyone tell what I've done
I miss the life, I miss the colors of the world, Can anyone tell where I am

Cause now again I've found myself so far down, away from the sun that shines into the darkest place,
I'm so far down, away from the sun again, away from the sun again

I'm over this, I'm tired of living in the dark, Can anyone see me down here
The feeling's gone, There's nothing left to lift me up, back into the world I know

Cause now again I've found myself so far down, away from the sun that shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down away from the sun that shines to light the way for me to find my way,
back into the arms that care about the ones like me, I'm so far down away from the sun again

It's down to this, I've got to make this life make sense, and now I can't tell what I've done
And now again I've found myself so far down, away from the sun that shines to light the way for me

Cause now again I've found myself so far down away from the sun that shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down away from the sun that shines to light the way for me to find my way
Back into the arms that care about the ones like me I'm so far down away from the sun again

I'm gone...
