Today's song is ....
Where The Streets Have No Name by U2!
This song speaks to me, you know? It's weird but it actually understands me. That feeling that you're trapped, but you will fight it to get the love, the admiration, the attention, the individuality you're looking for. And I love that this song has instrumental solos, because in this days I feel that music is way too stuffed with lyrics and it makes it a meaningless in my opinion. This song lets the instruments fly.

Lyrics:

I wanna run, I want to hide
I want to tear down the walls that hold me inside
I want to reach out and touch the flame
Where the streets have no name

I want to feel sunlight on my face
I see the dust-cloud disappear without a trace
I want to take shelter from the poison rain
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name

We're still building and burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do

The city's a flood and our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind, trampled in dust
I'll show you a place high on a desert plain
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name

We're still building and burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do

Our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
See our love turn to rust
I'll be beaten and blown by the wind
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do
