I don't know about songs that have really helped me get by or anything... but one that has really keyed into my life at certain points, kind of influencial... this is really corny, but 'Leaving on a Jet Plane.' A girlfriend... departures... damn, memories.

A couple for me

1. Teardrop - Massive Attack (Lyrics mainly, love being a verb, a doing word, etc.)

2. Save Yourself - Stabbing Westward (Also lyrics, other people suck, you can't help them, help yourself and quit worrying your ass about it.)

3. Everyday Sunshine - Fishbone (Good pump up and kick ass song, great to get you stoked)

My main song that has influenced me is...

'That's Youth' by Anti-Flag - It's about growing up, being yourself no matter what others say, and doing what you want to do, even if you're scared or intimidated.

hahaha, Hayden merely influences me to be depressed and then to write depressing music... But I 'grew up' listening to him. Oh the cottage memories.. Saw him w/ Julie Doiron at Convocation Hall awhile back, great show!

GUANOAPES - OPEN YOUR EYES
Great song, i'd encourage everyone to download it. there's many ways to breakt the song's meaning down, but the chorus is
'Open your eyes, Open your mind, proud like a god don't pretend to be blind, trapped in yourself, break out instead, beat the machine that works in your head.'
Break it down any way you like, the words are great for someone who can't find their own image. great motivation

It seems Ben Harper has a song for any emotion your feeling, his lyrics have helped me a lot.
especially burn one down. Not because its about smoking, but its about doing what you want and having the right to. Bob Marley's lyrics have a powerful message behind them.
