Think I'm steel, tough as nails
Never feel, never fail
But you're wrong
So damn wrong
Feel the weight of your hate
I still bleed, my heart aches
As you take
And you take
Words cut through my skin
Tears roll down my chin
My walls crumble within
But I'll take it all on
And get up when I fall
'Til the last curtain call
But you'll never get the best of me no more
Said you'll never get the best of me no more
Aren't you tired of throwing stones?
Try to kick me when I'm down
But you'll never get the best of me, no, you won't
Say I'm cold, made of ice
Heart of stone born to fight
But I cry, I still cry
Are you happy to know
I'm unhappy alone?
Take your shot, I'm wide open
Words cut through my skin
Tears roll down my chin
My walls crumble within
But I'll take it all on
And get up when I fall
'Til the last curtain call
But you'll never get the best of me no more
Said you'll never get the best of me no more
Aren't you tired of throwing stones?
Try to kick me when I'm down?
But you'll never get the best of me, no, you won't
But you'll never get the best of me no more
Said you'll never get the best of me no more
Aren't you tired of throwing stones?
Try to kick me when I'm down
But you'll never get the best of me, no, you won't
Heartbroken and beaten
Knocked down and mistreated
I will rise undefeated
I will not let you bring me down
Now the pain is deleted
And I will never repeat it
I will rise undefeated
I will not let you bring me down
No, I won't let you bring me down
Knocked down and mistreated
Heartbroken and beaten
Still I rise undefeated
Because you'll never get
But you'll never get the best of me no more
Said you'll never get the best of me no more
Aren't you tired of throwing stones?
Trying to kick me when I'm down
But you'll never get the best of me, no, you won't
Heartbroken and beaten
Knocked down and mistreated
I will rise undefeated
I will not let you bring me down
Now the pain is deleted
And I will never repeat it
I will rise undefeated
I will not let you bring me down
O prioritetai man pastaruoju metu yra nauji leidimai. Dar kitas dalykas, kad naujos grupės dažnai jau nebepateikia nieko įdomaus man. Ar bent nesilygina su savo "pirmtakais", kad norėtųsi į juos gilintis.
Nauji atradimai lieka tikrai paskutinėje vietoje ir praktiškai pamirštami. Kartais tik, jeigu pagal asociaciją su kita grupe atrandu, perklausau kokias kelias dainas, ir dažnai tuo ir pasibaigia, nes reikia grįžti prie prioritetų.
Tai panaši dilema ir man. Mano JAU mėgstamos grupės kepa kūrybą tempais, kurie man žiauriai per dideli, o čia dar naujas grupes atradinėti. Dažniausiai pas mane atradimai dabar būna "nes Spotify algoritmas išmetė", o ne intentional prisėdimai prie kažko
Nes pasirodo, juose gali slėptis įdomių, netikėtų dalykų. Pvz., netyčia atradau vieną bitlų dainą, nuo kurios užsikabinau, ir paaiškėjo visas Yellow Submarine albumas įdomus. Bet kur čia spėsi perklausyt, kai tiek naujų reikia peržvelgti...
Tai niekas netrukdo. Nėra ir labai didelė diskografija studijinių albumų. O man vis dar reikia normaliai perklausyti visus klasikinius, kurių gal nei vieno albumo normaliai taip ir neperklausiau. Bitlai, Rolling Stones, Kinks...
