"Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything."
-Plato
This quote by one of the greatest minds ever, expresses better than I ever will, the power of music. Millions of people across the world find pleasure, redemption, and peace in music. It has been said that music is the language of the masses.
I find that lately I have found myself pondering the meaning of song lyrics and their relevance to my life. I listen to music everyday and believe that music has the power to change lives in many different ways.
Every person listens to music but what each individual gets out of it is never the same. Everyone takes their personal journey and applies it to the meaning of a song. Therefore, I have created this blog to take song lyrics that I find particularly compelling, and examine them. I hope that this space will become an open forum where we can share some of our favorite songs and what they mean to us.
I cannot wait to begin this experiment.
