Living for my dying wish

I love Rise Against. Not just the music, but the message they have behind all their songs. It's not phoned in at all. It's true to what they believe. One of my favorites is the lyrics to "Give It All" 

We give it all 
This is the reason why I sing
So give it all
And it's these reasons that belong to me
Today I offer up myself to this
I'm living for my dying wish

I give it all 
Now there's a reason
There's a reason
To give it all

I love that song...I really want a tattoo with the words "living for my dying wish" Whatever that wish may be. The wish to love, to play, to laugh, to dream, but above all, the wish to do what defines you as you. 

I remember in speech we did this weird little test where it had all of these adjectives on a piece of paper, and you picked the five that you thought best described you....and then you had two other people pick the five they thought best described you. Afterwards you would compare and it really showed how others see you compared to who you thought you were....I know it's not 100% accurate because there are so many ways to describe somebody, and to narrow it down to five is a bit ridiculous, but I want the day to come where the answers read alike. I will know I'm not hiding who I am.....

And just to finish with a lyric by another band I love...Straylight Run....

"Sing like you think no one's listening" 

That is an amazing line....sing your heart out....don't let what others might think get in the way of passion.
