AFFIRMATION
Whenever I take a long drive (ie: home or coming back to KL), I would pop my favourite CD into the player. It's the 'Best of Savage Garden' compilation. I know, I know, they are defunct, but their songs, particularly the lyrics are very meaningful. One of my favourite is 'Affirmation'. Not only does it have a nice beat (I usually play it full blasts!! A good way to keep awake!).
Here's the lyrics:
I believe the sun should never set upon an argument
I believe we place our happiness in other people's hands
I believe that junk food tastes so good because it's bad for you
I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do
I believe that beauty magazines promote low self esteem
I believe I'm loved when I'm completely by myself alone
Chorus:
I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye
I believe you can't control or choose your sexuality
I believe the trust is more important than monogamy
I believe your most attractive features are your heart and soul
I believe that family is worth more than money or gold
I believe the struggle for financial freedom is unfair
I believe the only ones who disagree are millionaires
I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness
I believe that wedded bliss negates the need to be undressed
I believe that God does not endorse TV evangelists
I believe in love surviving death into eternity
Now isn't that beautiful? Whoever wrote the lyrics is a genius.
What do I think? Well. I believe 99% of the above.... :-)
