CKhermit - I'm pleased to see Type O as someone's theme! I saw them once with the Ramones opening! 20 years ago I think.
ASPartOfMe- Those were striking. Very.
I suppose mine would have to be Cry of the Blackbirds by Amon Amarth:
Here are the lyrics:
Raise your swords up high! See the black birds fly! Let them hear your rage! Show no fear! Attack!
Charge your horses across the fields Together we ride into destiny Have no fear of death, when it's your time Odin will bring us home when we die!
The ground trembles under us As we make our thunder charge The pounding hooves strikes blinding fear Into their heart
Our helmets shine in the sun As we near their wall of shields Some of them turn and run When they hear our frenzied screams
Draw your swords to strike Hear the Black Birds cry! Let them feel your hate! Show no fear!
(Attack! Attack! Attack! Attack!)
Charge your horses across the fields Together we ride into destiny Have no fear of death, when it's your time Odin will bring us home when we die!
The enemies are in disarray Ride them down as they run Send them to their violent graves, Don't spare anyone Dead and wounded lie all around, See the pain in their eyes Over the field an eerie sound, As we hear the ravens' cry

My theme song is Courageous by Casting Crowns. After I've been trying to tell people that I have Autism, I've been leaning on this song. I've already told my classmates. Next up? My MYSO(Milwaukee Youth Symphony Orchestra) stand partner. I'm 4th chair in the cello section. She HATES it when I don't look her in the eye or do something that seems weird to her. I think that she may have some Asperger's, too, but A: she's undiagnosed and B: I can't tell her without getting her mad.

I LOVE the words... "They been calling me a monster, ever since the day I was born" It's about coming to accept being different and maybe a little crazy

I used to listen to this when I was young. These lyrics were comforting and helped me to get out of depression:
You are a child of the universe No less than the trees and the stars And you have a right to be here And whether or not it is clear to you No doubt the universe is unfolding as it should

This purely because when I first thought I might have Aspergers, I was feeling a bit crap and I was nervous about a date I was going on that evening, but I played this on repeat on the way to his house. When it got to the chorus I felt like I wanted to dance and jiggle about, and usually I'd stop myself, but I thought, 'Well f*** it, if I have ASD then I may as well make the most of it!' and had a great little jig and felt free for the first time in years. So now it reminds me that I can be myself.
