*Lyrics in bold are ones that I think are particularly significant!
From 'Walter Reed'- Michael Penn
I count the cases piled up high
For the 1:15.
For platform and for passerby
It's the same routine.
I'm ranting while I'm raving,
There's nothing here worth saving.
Tell me now, what thêm do bạn need?
Take me to Walter Reed tonight.
Baby I've Mất tích the will for fighting
Over everything.
Well there's a few things I gotta say
And make no mistake, I'm mad.
'Cause every good thing I've had
Abandoned me.
All I want to do is hide.
It's graduation day
And everything I learned inside
Didn't seem to pay.
I've had my fill of palm trees
And lighting up Grauman's Chinese.
Tell me now, what thêm do bạn need?
Take me to Walter Reed tonight.
Baby I've Mất tích the will for fighting
Over everything
And there's a few things I gotta say.
Make no mistake, I'm mad.
'Cause every good thing I had
Abandoned me.
A sad and lonesome me.
I'm the walking wounded
And I'd say it to your face
But I can't find my place.
So tell me now, what thêm do bạn need?
Take me to Walter Reed tonight.
Baby I've Mất tích the will for fighting
Over everything
And there's a few things I gotta say.
Make no mistake, I'm mad
'Cause every good thing I had
Abandoned me.
A sad and lonesome me.
A sad and lonesome me.
A sad and lonesome me.
This songs always reminds me of how House is in general. Sort of brooding and melancholy but in a way, kind of upbeat about his own misery.
From 'See The World'- Gomez
ngày to day
Where do bạn want to be?
'Cos now you're trying to pick a fight
With everyone bạn need
You seem like a soldier
Who's Mất tích his composure
You're wounded and playing a waiting game
In no-man's land no-one's to blame
See the world
Find an old fashioned girl
And when all's been đã đưa ý kiến and done
It's the things that are given, not won
Are the things that bạn earned
Empty handed, surrounded bởi a senseless scene
With nothing of significance
Besides a shadow of a dream
You sound like an old joke
You're worn out, a bit broken
Asking me time and time again
And the answer's still the same
See the world
Find an old fashioned girl
And when all's been đã đưa ý kiến and done
It's the things that are given, not won
Are the things that bạn earned
You've got a chance to put things right
So how's it going to be?
Lay down your arms now
And put us beyond doubt
So reach out it's not too far away
Don't mess around now, don't delay
See the world...
This song reminds me of how people see House. People who care about him, like Cuddy, Wilson, Cameron and Stacey, see him as a tough but also fragile man and I think this song captures that!
From 'Are bạn Alright?'- Lucinda Williams
Are bạn alright?
All of a sudden bạn went away
Are bạn alright?
I hope bạn come back around someday.
Are bạn alright?
I haven't seen bạn in a real long time.
Are bạn alright?
Could bạn give me some kind of sign?
Are bạn alright?
I looked around me and bạn were gone.
Are bạn alright?
I feel like there must be something wrong.
Are bạn alright?
Cause it seems like bạn disappeared.
Are bạn alright?
Cause I've been feeling a little scared.
Are bạn alright?
Are bạn sleeping through the night?
Do bạn have someone to hold bạn tight?
Do bạn have someone to hang out with?
Do bạn have someone to hug & Kiss you?
Hug & Kiss you
Hug & Kiss you
Are bạn alright?
Are bạn alright?
Is there something been bothering you?
Are bạn alright?
I wish you'd give me a little clue.
Are bạn alright?
Is there something bạn want to say?
Are bạn alright?
Just tell me that you're OK.
Are bạn alright?
Cause bạn took off without a word.
Are bạn alright?
bạn flew away like a little bird.
Are bạn alright?
Is there anything I can do?
Are bạn alright?
Cause I need to hear from you.
Are bạn alright?
Are bạn sleeping through the night?
Do bạn have someone to hold bạn tight?
Do bạn have someone to hang out with?
Do bạn have someone to hug & Kiss you?
Hug & Kiss you
Hug & Kiss bạn
Are bạn alright?
Are bạn alright?
Are bạn alright?
This song makes me think of House's relationship with Wilson and Cuddy. They are constantly trying to help him out and make sure he is okay. But, like in the song, they repeat themselves ("Are bạn alright? Are bạn alright") But House often ignores them hoặc does the opposite of what they say.
I also like the lyrics from 'Got To Be thêm Careful' bởi Jon Cleary. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the full lyrics, but the song definately reminds me of the battles House has faced against both Vogler and Tritter. And, of course, the infamous 'You Can't Always Get Want' bởi The Rolling Stones/Band From TV.......
YOU CAN'T ALWAYS GET WHAT bạn WANT.
BUT IF bạn TRY SOMETIMES,
WELL,
bạn JUST MIGHT FIND...
bạn GET WHAT bạn NEED!
Oh yeah.
