Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
Tell myself, on the ride home
Getting tired, hating all I've known
Holding on, like it's all I have
Count me out, when it's clear that I, find it hard to say
And you, find it hard to care
I wanted to see something that's different, something you said would change in me
Wanted to be, anything different, everything you would change in me
Got this way, upfront but never true
God I'm wrong, it's just the way I am
Crashing down, any chance you hear
Caving in, any chance that you, could see inside of me
And I don't know what to say, it's fine
This isn't Hollywood
So fine, getting in your way
I wanted to see something that's different, something you said would change in me
Wanted to be, anything different, everything you would change in me
I'm taking a chance, this could be different
This could be all I'm waiting for
Taking a chance, this could be different
This could be all I'm waiting for
I wanted to see something that's different, something you said would change in me
Wanted to be, anything different, everything you would change in me
Getting tired, hating all I've known
Holding on, like it's all I have
Count me out, when it's clear that I, find it hard to say
And you, find it hard to care
I wanted to see something that's different, something you said would change in me
Wanted to be, anything different, everything you would change in me
Got this way, upfront but never true
God I'm wrong, it's just the way I am
Crashing down, any chance you hear
Caving in, any chance that you, could see inside of me
And I don't know what to say, it's fine
This isn't Hollywood
So fine, getting in your way
I wanted to see something that's different, something you said would change in me
Wanted to be, anything different, everything you would change in me
I'm taking a chance, this could be different
This could be all I'm waiting for
Taking a chance, this could be different
This could be all I'm waiting for
I wanted to see something that's different, something you said would change in me
Wanted to be, anything different, everything you would change in me

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen

The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
