Lately, with all the things going on in my life at the moment, there's really one song that gets to me...like it seriously makes me tear up sometimes when I listen to it. A mix of joy and fear and pain and love are all conjured up by this song. It's Straight Lines (http://video.aol.com/video-detail/id/497472692) by Silverchair.

I downloaded the song one day because I saw it on a local station's playlist (FNX Radio). When I really paid attention to the lyrics, it struck a nerve and really hit home.

What's that one (or more) song that really gets to you, like provokes a deep emotion that you never really bothered to confront?

Haha, that was my highschool's (or college for some of you) theme song. The band played it pretty well most of the time, although the last year I was there the ruined it for all eternity.
