what songs describe aspects of yourself, your personality?

For me, this is one of my top ones:

I see my failures and know people are better than me at a lot but then I do things they think is impossible (usually by making a connection they didn't). So this is me.


Also this.

Le Désordre, C'est Moi

"Don't wanna talk anymore
I'm obsessed with silence
I go home and I lock my door
I can hear the sirens

I see buildings and bars from the window
And I listen to the wind blow
I see people and cars covered in gold
And I'm happy to be on my own

Hard like a rock, cold like stone
White like a diamond, black like coal
Cut like a jewel, yeah I repair
Myself when you're not there

Solitaire
Something you consider rare
I don't wanna be compared
With that cheap shimmer and glitter
Solitaire

I'm in love with the ice-blue, gray skies of England
I'll admit, all I wanna do is get drunk and silent
Watch my life unfold all around me
Like a beautiful garden
I see flowers so tall, they surround me
Oh my heart, it became so hardened

Hard like a rock, cold like stone
White like a diamond, black like coal
Cut like a jewel, yeah I repair
Myself when you're not there

Solitaire
Something you consider rare
I don't wanna be compared
With that cheap shimmer and glitter
Solitaire

And all the other jewels around me
They astounded me at first
I covered up my heart in boundaries
And all the fakes, they called me cursed
But I'm not cursed, I'm not cursed
I was just covered in dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt

Solitaire
Something you consider rare
I don't wanna be compared
With that cheap shimmer and glitter
Solitaire

"Something feels so strange tonight
It's not wrong but it's just not right
Some hidden complications, fill me with hesiatation
and it gets so dark in here
I can't see through doubts and fears
Walled in by expectation, I need a deviation
Change in perspective, alternateive view
To help me see clearly, observe something new
All I want is a window to look through
All I need is a window to look through
It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway
All I want is a window to look through
All I need is a window to look through
It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway

outside the world's so dangerous
It's hard to find someone to trust
Fills me with reservation drives me into hibernation
I watch what's going on
But I don't want to belong
Leave me in my introspection
Safely behind protection

All I want is a window to look through
All I need is a window to look through
It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway
All I want is a window to look through
All I need is a window to look through
It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway
looking through windows at the world
Looking through windows at the world
Safe behind windows from the world
Safe behind windows from the world
Watching my window world go by
Just watching my window world go by
Without my window who am I
Without my window who am I
All I want is a window to look through
All I need is a window to look through
It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway
All I want is a window to look through
All I need is a window to look through
It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway
All I want
All I want is a window to look through
All I want
All I need is a window to look through
All I need
It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway
All I want is a window to look through
All I need is a window to look through
It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway"

I feel like I was born for devastation and reform
I'll destroy everything I love and the worst part is
I'll pull my heart out, reconstruct
But in the end it's nothing but a shell of what I had when I first started

An injury, I'll cause with my own fist it
It seems to me to be slightly masochistic
But there'd be no story without all this dissension
So I inflict the conflict with the utmost of intention

Welcome to the freak show
This is where the freaks go
This is the place that they can never take away
Welcome to the freak show
We don't ever need no
One to tell us who to be, how to think
I don't care what they believe
Welcome to the freak show

Welcome to the outcast
Take a step across the tracks
We ain't got nothing to prove
Don't need your smiling face
Don't need your hand to shake
'Cause this is my life to live and I ain't living for you

[...]

I'm a freak, naturally
Just how I wanna be

Sharada by Skye Sweetnam





Once upon a time there was a girl
You wouldn't really call her typical
Had her own definition of cool
She lived in her own world
She had her own style, her own rules
She played along like it was usual
Nobody really even knew her name
To her life was one big game

[Chorus:]
She's got her head up in the clouds
Sharada Sharada
Don't know if she'll come down
Sharada Sharada
She can't get to bed
Sharada Sharada
She's got that song stuck in her head

Dreaming all day, that's all she did
Ever since she was a little kid
All the teachers thought that she was slow
She was just dreaming 'bout her show
And when they told her she's delerious
She didn't care- she's just oblivious
She likes to make everyone curious
One day she's gonna be famous

[Chorus]

Sharada Sharada

[Chorus]

I'm Not A Punk by Descendents





i'm not a punk, how can i be?
show me the way to conformity
try to be different but it's always the same
end up playin' someone else's game
i'm just a square goin' nowhere
i'm just a square goin' nowhere
you used to walk by my side
now you see me comin' now you hide
i see you here i see you there
i can see that you don't care
i'm just a square goin' nowhere

For he who thinks he knows me.

Darkness falls and she will take me by the hand
Take me to some twilight land
Where all but love is grey
Where I can't find my way
Without her as my guide

Night falls I'm cast beneath her spell
Daylight comes
Our heaven turns to Hell
Am I left to burn
And burn eternally?
She's a mystery to me

In the night of love words tangle in her hair
Words soon to disappear
A love so sharp it cuts
Like a switchblade to my heart
Words tearing me apart

She tears again my bleeding heart
I want to run she's pulling me apart
Fallen angel cries
And I just melt away
She's a mystery to me

Haunted by her sight it's the darkness in her eyes
That so enslaves me
But if my love is blind then I don't want to see
She's a mystery to me

Night falls I'm cast beneath her spell
Daylight comes our heaven turns to Hell
Am I left to burn
And burn eternally?

She's a mystery to me

She's a Mystery Girl
She's a Mystery Girl
She's a Mystery Girl
She's a Mystery Girl
She's a Mystery Girl
She's a Mystery Girl
She's a Mystery Girl
She's a Mystery Girl
She's a Mystery Girl
She's a Mystery Girl

Everything Is Overrated by Less Than Jake





Maybe I'm jaded and bored
Always lookin' for more
Waiting around for the next big fix
I know
I'm a wreck I'm a mess
But I couldn't care less
Don't know what it would take to change me

Everybody is so afraid to be different
Please excuse me now if I don't get it

I think sex is overrated
So is always getting wasted
Designer drugs and dead end jobs and
Classic rock is so outdated
I'm so sick of therapy and all the things it's done to me
How can I be satisfied when everything is overrated?

Maybe the problem is me
But I won't make believe
And I can't take this mediocrity
What if this is a test and I deserve what I get
Will I wake up with all the answers?

Everybody is too afraid to be different
Please excuse me now if I don't listen

I think sex is overrated
So is always getting wasted
Designer drugs and dead-end jobs and
Classic rock is so outdated
I'm so sick of therapy and all the things it's done to me
How can I be satisfied when everything is overrated?

When everything is overrated

Can't stand the normal
Can't stand the ordinary
Find me anything
That's extraordinary
Show me something
Show me anything
Am I the only one?
Am I the only one?

I think sex is overrated
So is always getting wasted
All my friends and family
They make my life so complicated
I'm so sick of apathy and TV show reality
How can I be satisfied when everything is overrated?
