Joseph Arthur - In the Sun

    I picture you in the sun wondering what went wrong

    And falling down on your knees asking for sympathy

    And being caught in between all you wish for and all you seen

    And trying to find anything you can feel that you can believe in

    May God's love be with you

    Always

    May God's love be with you

Johnny Cash - Heart of Gold

    I want to live,

    I want to give

    I've been a miner

    for a heart of gold.

    It's these expressions

    I never give

    That keeps me searching

    for a heart of gold

    And I'm getting old.

Stretch - Why Did You Do It?

    I've been thinking 'bout what you have done to me

    The damage is much deeper than you'll ever see

    Hit me like a hammer to my head

    I wonder were you pushed or were you led?

    Why did you do it? Why did you do that thing to me?

    Why did you do it? Why did you do that thing to me?

    The only one who knows the truth,

    Man it's him me and you.

What makes this one awesome is that it's a representation of the real feelings about a real incident.
