Lyrics/songs that kept you going

 
I've been waiting for a guide to come and take me by the hand,
Could these sensations make me feel the pleasures of a normal man?
These sensations barely interest me for another day,
I've got the spirit, lose the feeling, take the shock away.

Great song, but lyrically I prefer The Smiths. Or at least I did.

Overall I think Joy Division are better, though.
 
This one carried me through once or twice:

Up at night, feeling down, am I all alone?
Hide away from it all, in a stranger's home
Is it me? Is it you? Can I trust myself?
I need some help

I'm fine, don't ask, the truth is
I'm nightmares underneath, it's useless
Oh, well, who cares? The proof is
The monster in my head is ruthless

Welcome the new great depression

 

"There is no blame only shame
When you beg you just complain
The more I come, more I try
All police are paranoid
So am I, so's the future
So are you, be a creature
What do you say do you do when it all comes down
'Cause I don't wanna come back
Down from this cloud
It's taken me all this time to find out what I need, yeah yeah yeah
I don't wanna come back
Down from this cloud
It's taken me all this, all this time."
 
[Verse 1]
Come down off your throne and leave your body alone
Somebody must change
You are the reason I've been waiting so long
Somebody holds the key

[Chorus]
But I'm near the end and I just ain't got the time
And I'm wasted and I can't find my way home


[Verse 2]
Come down on your own and leave your body alone
Somebody must change
You are the reason I've been waiting all these years
Somebody holds the key


[Chorus]
But I'm near the end and I just ain't got the time
And I'm wasted and I can't find my way home


[Outro]
But I can't find my way home
But I can't find my way home
But I can't find my way home
But I can't find my way home
Still I can't find my way home
And I ain't done nothing wrong
But I can't find my way home
 

Hey there you, shattered in a thousand pieces
Weeping in the darkest nights
Hey there you, try to stand up on your own two feet
And stumble into the sky

When the lights go out and you're on your own
How you're gonna make it through till the morning sun'

Sing to the moon and the stars will shine
Over you, lead you to the other side
Sing to the moon and the stars will shine
Over you, heaven's gonna turn the tide

Hey there you, looking for a brighter season
Need to lay your burden down
Hey there you, drowning in a helpless feeling
Buried under deeper ground

When the lights go out it's a waiting game
Never gonna see a day when your world will change

Sing to the moon and the stars will shine
Over you, lead you to the other side
Sing to the moon and the stars will shine
Over you, heaven's gonna turn the tide
Sing to the moon and the stars will shine
Over you, lead you to the other side
Sing to the moon and the stars will shine
Over you, heaven's gonna turn the tide
