Songs
The following are songs that reflect, what I believe to be, common emotions in the depressed, and queer communities...

"Reflection" (From Disney's Mulan)

Look at me, You may think you see who I realy am,
But you'll never know me, Every day, it's as if I play a part...
Now I see, If I wear a mask, I can fool the world,
But I cannot fool my heart...

Who is this girl I see, Staring straight back at me?
When will my reflection show, who I am inside?

I am now in a world where I have to hide my heart,
And what I believe in,
But somehow I will show the world, what's inside my heart.
And be loved for who I am...

Who is that girl I see, Staring straight back at me,
Why is my reflection someone I don't know?
Must I pretend that I'm someone else for all time,
When will my reflection show, who I am inside?

There's a heart that must be free to fly,
That burns with a need to know the reson why...
why must we all conceal, What we think, How we feel?
Must there be a secret me, that i'm forced to hide?

I won't pretend that I'l someone else for all time,
When will my reflection show, who I am inside?
When will my reflection show, who I am inside?

"If Walls Could Talk"
by Celine Dion, for the HBO movie If thease walls could talk 2

Thease walls keep a secret
That only we know
But how long can they keep it
Cause we're two lovers who lose control
We're two shadows chasing rainbows
Behind closed windows,
Behind closed doors

If walls could talk - oh,
They would say "I want you more"
They would say "hey - never felt like this before"
And that you would always be
the one for me

Just two people making memmories
Too good to tell
And thease arms are never empty
When we're lying where we fell
We're painting pictures, making magic,
taking chances,
Making love,

If walls could talk - oh,
They would say "I want you more"
They would say "hey - never felt like this before"
And that you would always be
the one for me
If the walls had eyes - my,
They would see the love inside
They would see  - me
In your arms in ecstacy
And with every move they'd know
I love you so

When I'm feeling weak
You give me wings
When the fire has no heat
You light it up again
When I head no violins
you play mty every string

So stop the press,
Hold the news
The secret's safe between me and you
Walls - Can you keep a secret?

If walls could talk - oh,
They would say "I want you more"
They would say "hey - never felt like this before"
And that you would always be
the one for me
If the walls had eyes - my,
They would see the love inside
They would see  - me
In your arms in ecstacy
And with every move they'd know
I love you so

                    --HBO's If thease Wall could Talk 2 is about the Lesbian experience in america...You can watch it on HBO, or find sombody who has HBO and ask them to tape it for you.



Silent Legacy (You may recognise this from the main page)
by Melissa Etheridge

Why did you steal the matches,
From the one room motel?
Once they gave you answers,
now they give you hell,
They will never understand,
Ther wonder where did they go wrong,
How could you be so selfish,
Why can't you get allong?

And as you pray in your darkness,
for wings to set you free,
You are bound to your silent legacy.

You've seen it in the movies,
and heard it on the street,
Craving the affection,
Your blood is full of heat,
They don't listen to your resons,
as origional as sin...
Deny all that you feel
And they will bring you home again

And as you pray in your darkness,
for wings to set you free,
You are bound to your silent legacy.

Your body is alive,
but no one told you what you'd feel,
The empty aching hours,
Trying to conceal
The natural progression
is the coming of your age,
But they cover it with shame,
and turn it into rage.

And as you pray in your darkness,
for wings to set you free,
You are bound to your silent legacy.

You are digging for the answers,
untill your fingers bleed
To satisfy the hunger,
to satiate the need
They feed you on the guilt,
to keep you humble, keep you low
Some man and myth they made up
A thousand years ago

And as you pray in your darkness,
for wings to set you free,
You are bound to your silent legacy.

Mothers tell your children,
Be quick you must be strong,
Life is full of wonder,
Love is never wrong,
Remember how they taught you,
How much of it was fear,
Refuse to hand it down,
The legacy stops here!



This song was origionaly written in Japanese, for Fushigi Yuugi, so the translation is a little choppy... but it's about wanting someone to love.
we've all been there :)

I Wish... (From Fushigi Yuugi)

The stars that twinkle in the dark, You've surely lost too,
Searching for a far off tommorow, We are alike...

Though trusting, In someone's hurts,

I wish for your love,
I wish for your love,
Why? Blue stars, please tell me...
I wish for your love,
How can I free myself, of the unending pain?

Once they learn love, People become weak,
Even if they hold on to the feeling, they can't be alone

Even if you hate me so much,
That it'll even freeze dreams...
I wanna be your love,
I wanna be your love,
Why? I can't kill my loneliness
I wanna be your love,
I can't become strong, with a broken heart...

I wish for your love
I wish for your love,
Why? Blue stars please grant me
I wish for your love
Just one thing i want is to be loved by someone...
