Resurrection
This song represents everything that I am now as person, because this song's entire meaning related to me during a very important moment of my life. Years back when I was in high school I was doing things I shouldn't have been doing and hanging around with people I shouldn't have been hanging around with. I was in a bad way in life, I didn't have much self-worth, and didn't really see the point of life sometimes. Two years ago I was at a birthday party for my cousin and it felt like any other party, loud music, people drinking, and smoking, myself included. Feeling tired, I went inside my cousin's house and I saw this girl that just caught my attention like nothing else in the world. Normally, I am the most anti-social person and sure I am shy, but mostly kind of anti-social. Nevertheless, I talked with that girl until she left a couple hours ago, during that entire I felt no need to drink at all or tried to invite her to drink with me, which amazed after I thought about had happened after she left. First, I had never felt that kind of connection with someone in my life. Second, the night after that party I awoke with the strangest sense of well-being, like I was alive finally. Third, it was the first time I didn't feel like being that kind of person I was before meeting that girl. I've been with that girl for 2 years and plan on still being with her for time to come. This song represents and reminds me that I'm here now and happy thanks to this person.
The song is called Resurrection and its a song from a Finnish band called H.I.M. This band is often labeled as goth of dark and all that stuff, but I've heard not only do people with those kinds of styles and like this music. This song talks about 2 people who found each other and feel that they are finally living that finding each other brought them back to life, and that this feeling just wants them keeping wanting more of
