Tree hugger, amateur musician, human but I’d rather be a bird. Anti-fascist. Don’t be a jerk. 💙

Bruce Springsteen – Land of Hope and Dreams
“Big wheels roll through fields Where sunlight streams Meet me in a land of hope and dreams Well, I will provide for you And I’ll stand by your side You’ll need a good companion now For this part of the ride Leave behind your sorrows Let this day be the last Tomorrow there’ll be sunshine And all this darkness past Big wheels roll through fields Where sunlight streams Oh meet me in a land of hope and dreams”

“Lights out tonight, trouble in the heartland Got a head-on collision smashin' in my guts, man I'm caught in a crossfire that I don't understand But there's one thing I know for sure, girl I don't give a damn for the same old played-out scenes Baby, I don't give a damn for just the in-betweens Honey, I want the heart, I want the soul, I want control right now You better listen to me, baby”

Dire Straits – Love Over Gold
A long time ago came a man on a track Walking thirty miles with a sack on his back And he put down his load where he thought it was the best He made a home in the wilderness He built a cabin and a winter store And he ploughed up the ground by the cold lake shore And the other travellers came walking down the track And they never went further, no, they never went back Then came the churches, then came the schools Then came the lawyers, then came the rules Then came the trains and the trucks with their loads And the dirty old track was the Telegraph Road Then came the mines, then came the ore Then there was the hard times, then there was a war Telegraph sang a song about the world outside Telegraph Road got so deep and so wide Like a rolling river And my radio says tonight it's gonna freeze People driving home from the factories There's six lanes of traffic Three lanes moving slow I used to like to go to work, but they shut it down I've got a right to go to work, but there's no work here to be found Yes, and they say we're gonna have to pay what's owed We're gonna have to reap from some seed that's been sowed And the birds up on the wires and the telegraph poles They can always fly away from this rain and this cold You can hear them singing out their telegraph code All the way down the Telegraph Road Well, I'd sooner forget, but I remember those nights Yeah, life was just a bet on a race between the lights You had your head on my shoulder, you had your hand in my hair Now you act a little colder like you don't seem to care But just believe in me, baby, and I'll take you away From out of this darkness and into the day From these rivers of headlights, these rivers of rain From the anger that lives on the streets with these names 'Cause I've run every red light on memory lane I've seen desperation explode into flames I don't want to see it again From all of these signs saying, Sorry, but we're closed All the way Down the Telegraph Road

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young – 4 Way Street
“On May 4, 1970, a Monday, approximately 300 students gathered in protest on the Kent State campus. The National Guard was called in to contain the protesters and, one thing leading to another, opened fire on the students. Over two dozen National Guard soldiers fired 67 rounds into the crowd, killing four students (Allison Krause, 19; William Schroeder, 19; Jeffrey Miller, 20; and Sandra Lee Scheuer, 20) and wounding nine others. Today, “Ohio” is regarded as one of the greatest protest songs in our nation’s musical history. The lyrics tell it all, with barely suppressed rage: Tin soldiers and Nixon coming We’re finally on our own This summer I hear the drumming Four dead in Ohio Gotta get down to it, soldiers are cutting us down Should have been gone long ago What if you knew her and found her dead on the ground How can you run when you know?”

Alice In Chains - Dirt
In Dirt, the band merged Seattle scuzz, the vestiges of pop-metal, and Staley’s limitless self-loathing into a hard-rock colossus. The title itself says it all: Dirt is, on one hand, the most elemental album of the grunge era, tackling the big questions with bluesy and Biblical seriousness: a busted dam, a rainstorm, a flood, a big old pile of them bones. For dirt thou art, And unto dirt shalt thou return. It’s also an album about feeling like dirt, and knowing that others see you that way. Dirt is by and for a dispossessed generation who came of age in the shadow of Vietnam, amid skyrocketing divorce rates, hard drugs, and an ever-widening gap between the haves and have-nots. All this time, they swore they’d never be like their old man. “There’s a growing group of people in the States that just don’t feel a part of stuff,” Cantrell said in 1993. “They feel outside, they don't want in on the Dream. They want out, man, out. And our music is a very small part of that.”
