    A Meaningful Song?

    A small assignment for English requires me to search for lyrics to a song that has a powerful message. Since I don't exactly listen to music like that, I need your help FFR. Help find a meaningful song for me. A link to the lyrics be nice as well.

    Though remember, this is a school project, nothing inappropriate please and I'd prefer to stay away from Hip Hop.

    Carry On Thy Wayward Son...

    Just about any song by Kansas has a good point...
    Sincerely,

      Just looked it up, don't understand it and unsure what the chorus is.

      Meaning = Keep living?

              you would have to listen to the song to understand...

                I'm liking itmorr's. Can't believe I forget to check up John Lennon's work.

                  If you need help with the meaning of lyrics.. Look up the song here, people discuss the meaning at the bottom. Some songs don't have much activity though.

                    Anything by Iron & Wine or some songs by Sufjan Stevens work.

                      Paved Paradise - Counting crows
                      Ghosts- Gary Jules (You may actually need to think to try and find the meaning)
                      Something Else- Gary Jules

                      Basically, search for almost any of Gary Jules' songs, you're bound to find something.

                      Paved Paradise lyrics

                      Ghosts lyrics

                      Something Else lyrics

                            Yeah, pretty much. Just don't give up. Keep going.

                            2112 - Rush is pretty good. To me, it's meaningful.

                              Linkin Park- Numb

                              It's not HipHop, and it's an easy one to understand.
                              My little corner of Local Reality Quotes:

                              Zack: Okay, I've got tampons, a Venus razor, now to stop at Victoria's secret.
                              Joe: Uh, I think you're taking this joke a little too far. Seriously. I can understand going off to buy a bra, but TAMPONS? You're starting to kill the joke. And do I really have to come with you?
                              Zack: Shut up. It's funny.
