Day 01 – R’s Favorite Song

It’s bugging me, grating me
And twisting me around
Yeah I’m endlessly caving in
And turning inside out

Cause I want it now (I want it now)
Give me your heart and your soul
And I’m breaking out (I’m breaking out)
Last chance to lose control

Yeah it’s holding me, morphing me
And forcing me to strive
To be endlessly cold within
And dreaming I’m alive

Cause I want it now (I want it now)
Give me your heart and your soul
And i’m breaking down (I’m breaking out)
Last chance to lose control

And I want you now (I want you now)
I’ll feel my heart implode
And I’m breaking out
Escaping now
Feeling my faith erode

Hysteria by Muse

This is epic good stuff—my favorite song coming from my favorite band. It features Muse’s loud energetic style fueled by killer blistering guitars, has a monstrous chorus, excellent bass line, Matt’s aching voice singing top-notch lyrics of being driven to the edge of intense, maddening longing. It feels like the song is seething with gripping impulsiveness and celebrating pure rapture. It makes me air guitar my heart out (especially at the bass line) and I always crank it up when I listen to it, whatever mood I’m in. It’s stuck in my head forever.  It can’t get any better than this.
