My Inspirtations: Music

I have many inspirations to choose from, so I will just start with music.
My favorite band is Mumford & Sons. Their lyrics are very meaningful and touching. They are kind of a religious band, calling themselves "The Gentlemen of the Lord." I, myself, am not very religious but I still enjoy learning and observing how religion can overtake someone's life and giving them happiness. Mumford & Sons used to have depressing lyrics, but that was before Marcus Mumford, the lead vocalist, got married to Carey Mulligan (who was in the recent movie of The Great Gatsby). After the marriage, their lyrics were more about falling in love and staying strong. One of Marcus Mumford's most known lyric is "I have never spent a year better spent in love." Mumford & Sons helps me cope with my emotions and feel better. I stay strong because of them.
My next inspirational musician is Darwin Deez. Darwin is such an odd man, he's tall, awkward, and lanky but I still love him to bits. His lyrics describe me spot-on. His song Alice is my favorite song. Two lyrics that stand out to me are

You put your hair back into that, magic black elastic.

I used to always put my hair up in a ponytail because I was insecure about letting my hair down. I can not exactly remember the reason of why I was insecure, but I do remember how awkward and self-conscious I was when I did leave it down. Another one of his lyric's that describe me is

So evacuate my heart, 'cause inside is total chaos.

I feel like we all have felt that way. We push away the ones that care and love us because we are a mess on the inside and we do not want them to be dragged into it. This lyric will always stick with me for the rest of my life. I have to show I am stronger than I feel like I am.

It is pretty funny how music has had such an impact on my life, but I would not want to trade it for anything in the world.
