Reply #43: Mel C's "Feel the Sun"

[Democracy White]

From her "Northern Star" album.

I found this song to be truly uplifting for me, especially when I got out of the mental hospital while fighting a terrible bout with depression:


These thoughts can be evil and they often deceive
Gotta believe that I can overcome
My fears are the worst and they always return
I never learn
Feel like I don't belong

Lost in the wreckage
Of a million bad dreams
Hard to function
I just need some routine
God, it's obscene
When did they stop the fun?

I knew that something must be done
To save the person I'd become
That's why I had to run away

Feel the sun
Waves crash like my emotion
Life has begun
Now I will be safe from the storm
I found the one
This angel's my salvation
I'm feeling strong
You will be there if I fall

Guilt is no use it will tarnish your soul
Just let it go
The battle will soon be won
Cold in the shadow of who I should be
There's a fire burning deep inside me
Helping me see
Only I hold the key

And now I stand here unafraid
Proud of everything I've made
That's why I had to run away

Feel the sun
Waves crash like my emotion
Life has begun
Now I will be safe from the storm
I found the one
This angel's my salvation
I'm feeling strong
You will be there if I fall

There's so much energy
At last I can be free
I am the person I was looking for

Feel the sun
Waves crash like my emotion
Life has begun
Now I will be safe from the storm
I found the one
This angel's my salvation
I'm feeling strong I'll never fall
You are there when I call
