Music is the Ultimate Speech

the world communicates using various languages. However, there is one language that speaks to us all. There is not a single human on Earth that can listen to music without it touching their souls.
We often us music to express how we feel. The first thing you do when you are mad and just want to scream, is run to your room and turn the music up real loud. When you are sad, most will listen to a slow sad song so that they won't feel so alone. When you love someone and you listen to any song, every line will remind you of them.
Music says the words that your heart feels. When you listen to a certain song and it's about how you feel, every single word and line explains exactly what your hearts feels. It's like you want to say something and it is on the tip of your tongue, but you just can't get it out right. Then you sit there with the melody of rhymes running through your head and it's perfect.
No matter where you are, who you are, where you come from, or what nationality you are music touches everyone.
To me it's like a hug sort of. Like when i listen to some songs, I will get chills and butterflies in my stomach. Only it isn't the bad scary kind of butterflies. It is the type that you get when you are excited and all your insides go warm. Like when you find out that the boy you have liked for a long time likes you back. Or when you have just accomplished something great and everyone is so proud of you.
Music is my saving grace. I know that it is always there and a simple rhyme can cheer up my day.
I know one song that comes to mind as i think of those butterflies. It is "The River Flows In You". This song sends chills down my spine everytime I hear it's sweet melody. I love music. I love that it is just something I can enjoy now.
Being in band this year made me lose that love for a little while. Now that that is almost over I am gaining my appreciation for songs back. Band makes music a requirement and not something that I really enjoy, but I will always love music.
Music is the world-wide language in which everyone may understand.
