Reviews for 45 Lyrics

I think this song is great. it sounds like me when i broke up with my boyfriend that i was with for 5 years. Now when this song comes on it brings me back to that day. Plus it sounds like my every day life almost. but to tell you the truth i love this song a hell of alot.

All I can say is that this song is amazing. You can hear the anger and pain in his voice. All he wants is for everyone to be happy and live life without all te negative crap, simple right? Not always.

ty for posting my post. if you listen to most of there songs you will see why he chose to cover simple man. he just wants to see all happy. he trying to help show all that to be happy is simple. like better version of me. maybe he selfish like i am. im selfish for wanting all to be happy. this band has hit me hard in a good way. life is simple. my fav saying is lets take something simple and complicate it. seems what all like to do. i dont. ken

you wont get this. whats my point? will see at end. priceless gift. one not on the list. a perfect world. (he a person that is simple. be happy he says)well thats simple right? not when others drag you down or songs words=In these times of doing what you're told
You keep these feelings, no one knows. (saying stop all the bull and be happy) song=And I'm staring down the barrel of a 45 (45),
Swimming through the ashes of another life (another life). (the other life is all the gossip and bad talk. forget it, be simple,happy.) Send a message to the unborn child? remeber this for a song to be said later. the 45 he is looking at is all the people around him so un-happy and he tring to help and cant and its killing him mentaly. the song i said at end simple man. momma told me when i was young. sit beside me my only son. listen closly. the song simple man is what he is saying. lol its that simple. my life saying for all but me is. ok lets take something simple and complicate it. be happy

or add 5 things. There's a piece of a puzzle known as life
Wrapped in guilt, sealed up tight
life=be happy while your alive. its guilt to be happy? no its awsome to be happy. watch me get bashed for this responce. that will show like in the song=Everyone's pointing their fingers
Always condemning me
And nobody knows what I believe
I believe
be simple. be happy. be simple is not talk all day about negative crap. No real reason to accept the way things have changed. yes cause he a simple man and wants to be happy around most that dont. they say they do, but all that comes out of there mouth is negative. now im sure some will say im being egative now. im not. just trying to help....And nobody knows what I believe
I believe
becomes an assumtion

sorry. but this song is me. and i dont and will never commit suicide. read words. the 45 he staring down is another life. a priceless gift,one not on the list,a perfect world(all will say i would like that also. lol right. most gossip and talk angry most of time) he keeps these feelings cause its who he is and cant/wont change. the sadness he sees all the time he cant fix is him staring down the barrel of a 45. a life of seeing people not happy. No real reason to accept the way things have changed
Staring down the barrel of a 45. he saying i wont change and be fake. but it is killing him ty its me and its my thoughts

This song is great. The inflection of the singers voice when he says "swallowed by pain, as he slowly fell apart" brings tears to my eyes, you can hear the sadness in his voice. A great song about the battle one has w/themselves when they want to end it. "keep these feelings, no one knows", "no real reason to accept the way things have changed"

This song to me.... it talks to me. When first heard this song my friend just killed him self, it was kinda ironic. I walked in his room he was on the floor this song playing on the radio. I cherish this song. I learned how to play it and i played it @ his funeral.
Shinedown keep doing what you do.

He said it reminds him of Creeds "What's this life for". That doesn't mean he thinks it's a rip-off. It means he feels they carry the same message. Read before you speak. You don't sound so stupid that way.

this song reminds me alot of wat i think of alot of the tymes.....i am alone cuz i have lost my whole famile n i watched my sista dies n i realize she died because of me cuz she was takin me bak 2 place ment n its my fault shes not here nemore n it jus makes me think........why did i live?? wat's this lyfe for??

Hey This is a good song so shut up they didnt copy it from creed so you guys dont know s*it But the best song iv herd from shinedown

beautiful song.

to the person who commented before me; if you're saying you think it's a rip from creed then you are utterly a moron

This song reminds me of Creed's "What's This Life For." Very interesting, makes you stop and think.
