My Punk Anthem - [Matthew]
I want to drink, drink, drinkI want to smoke, smoke, smoke
I want to cuss, cuss, cuss
I want to fight, fight, fight
I want to burn, burn, burn
This city down, down, down
I want to cry, cry, cry
Until I drown, drown, drown
I want to feel, feel, feel
Some kind of pain, pain, pain
To have the fire, fire, fire
Run through my veins, veins, veins
I want to kiss, kiss, kiss
You on the mouth, mouth, mouth
A love so strong, strong, strong
The lights blow out, out, out
I want to shoot, shoot, shoot
Into the sky, sky, sky
I want to live, live, live
Until I die, die, die
I want to know, know, know
Just where I stand, stand, stand
Is it a curse, curse, curse
To be a man

For some reasons, perhaps it's all the U2 stuff on [ping] lately, but the first thing that jumped into my mind after reading the verse 1 was "Yahweh." I'm not exactly sure why, excet that perhaps it's the anti-"My Punk Anthem" in theme and structure:
Take these shoes
Click clacking down some dead end street
Take these shoes
And make them fit
Take this shirt
Polyester white trash made in nowhere
Take this shirt
And make it clean, clean
Take this soul
Stranded in some skin and bones
Take this soul
And make it sing
Take these hands
Teach them what to carry
Take these hands
Don't make a fist
Take this mouth
So quick to criticise
Take this mouth
Give it a kiss
Take this city
A city should be shining on a hill
Take this city
If it be your will
What no man can own, no man can take
Take this heart
Take this heart
Take this heart
And make it break
[ping]-out
Good point. The 'My Punk Anthem' is the testosterone-dump, anger junkie, fightin'- on-my-mind part of my brain taking the mic for a few minutes. Praying through 'Yahweh' could be a great way to give God room to talk me down from the ledge.
