      Scrubs is the best MODERN sitcom. The old ones have a different style that is really off-putting to lots of people under like, 35... lol Most newer sitcoms aren't to great though. Except How I Met Your Mother, but scrubs has a lot more laughs and a lot more emotional parts!

      honestly the way i think scrubs dealt with complex emotional issues puts it at the top of modern sitcoms for me, though the way himym dealt with uplifting moments was fucking awesome. but no other sitcom dealt with raw emotion like scrubs

    I found this song in juvenile hall. Must of been back 2005. Had a hard life in a county of no foster beds. Because of that I spent two years out of three in a pod full of troubled teens. One of the guards felt bad for me and would bring me his iPod and ihome to let me listen to music at night. Thank you Chris. I found my freedom

    I have searched for this song for over a decade and a Facebook group finally lead me here. The image of this guy has popped in my head from time to time over the years and i searched aimlessly for “red head acoustic guitar” but unfortunately or me Ed Sheran had a career. I didn’t remember his name or even what the song sounded like or any words. Feels so good to finally find it again and hey it’s nice tune too!

    There ain't no reason things are this way
    It's how they've always been and they intend to stay
    I can't explain why we live this way
    We do it every day
    Preachers on the podiums speaking of saints
    Prophets on the sidewalk begging for change
    Old ladies laughing from the fire escape
    Cursing my name
    I got a basket full of lemons and they all taste the same
    A window and a pigeon with a broken wing
    You could spend your whole life working for something
    Just to have it taken away
    People walk around pushing back their debts
    Wearing paychecks like necklaces and bracelets
    Talking about nothing, not thinking 'bout death
    Every little heartbeat, every little breath
    People walk a tight rope on a razor's edge
    Carrying their hurt and hatred and weapons
    It could be a bomb, or a bullet or a pen
    Or thought, or a word or a sentence
    There ain't no reason things are this way
    It's how they always been and they intend to stay
    I don't know why I say the things I say
    But I say them anyway
    But love will come, set me free
    Love will come, set me free, I do believe
    Love will come, set me free, I know it will
    Love will come, set me free, yes
    Prison walls still standing tall
    Some things never change at all
    Keep on building prisons, gonna fill them all
    Keep on building bombs, gonna drop them all
    Working your fingers bare to the bone
    Breaking your back, make you sell your soul
    Like a lung, it's filled with cold
    Suffocating slow
    The wind blows wild and I may move
    The politicians lie and I am not fooled
    You don't need no razor or a three piece suit
    To argue the truth
    They air on my skin in the world under my toes
    Slavery stitched to the fabric of my clothes
    Chaos and commotion wherever I go
    Love I try to follow
    Love will come, set me free
    Love will come, set me free, I do believe
    Love will come, set me free, I know it will
    Love will come, set me free, yes
    There ain't no reason things are this way
    It's how they've always been and they intend to stay
    I can't explain why we live this way
    We do it every day

Be the change you want to see, there are many things you can do, be creative about it if you want. Let others find reason and forgiveness in their own time. Grassroots movements have the power to change the world. We all have a voice. Those who underestimate our generation, will regret it.

    The Last Face... is why I'm here... Brett's words hauntingly close out one of the most 'must see' movies that you've never heard of. If you have Internet, to access RUclips, to watch Brett's music video… you are privileged. This movie will bring to light a vast majority of humans that don't have any of the above. Not a roof over their head, not food in their bellies, not peace amongst their families and neighborhoods and communities. Brett's words bring to light the fallacy of westernized mentalities of an over indulgent, privileged existence that we all too often take for granted, and think it is the norm. Thank you Brett… for the words.. for the sentiment…

    I think I was ten or eleven when I heard this song for the first time, at High Sierra Music Festival in Northern CA. I have always loved this red-headed hippie man who showed me it was okay to be myself and love things and people who weren't considered cool in the mainstream media. The holidays are rough and there are many nights I just sit and listen to sad music to try and make sense of it all.

    Part of the song is gone
    where did it go?
    there is a missing verse
    it goes
    "working your fingers bare to the bone
    break ya back
    make ya sell your soul
    like a lung that is filled with coal
    suffocating slow"
    thumbs this up so people can see it.

    Lyrics
    There ain't no reason things are this way
    It's how they've always been and they intend to stay
    I can't explain why we live this way
    We do it every day
    Preachers on the podiums speaking of saints
    Prophets on the sidewalk begging for change
    Old ladies laughing from the fire escape
    Cursing my name
    I got a basket full of lemons and they all taste the same
    A window and a pigeon with a broken wing
    You could spend your whole life working for something
    Just to have it taken away
    People walk around pushing back their debts
    Wearing paychecks like necklaces and bracelets
    Talking about nothing, not thinking 'bout death
    Every little heartbeat, every little breath
    People walk a tight rope on a razor's edge
    Carrying their hurt and hatred and weapons
    It could be a bomb, or a bullet or a pen
    Or thought, or a word or a sentence
    There ain't no reason things are this way
    It's how they always been and they intend to stay
    I don't know why I say the things I say
    But I say them anyway
    But love will come, set me free
    Love will come, set me free, I do believe
    Love will come, set me free, I know it will
    Love will come, set me free, yes
    Prison walls still standing tall
    Some things never change at all
    Keep on building prisons, gonna fill them all
    Keep on building bombs, gonna drop them all
    Working your fingers bare to the bone
    Breaking your back, make you sell your soul
    Like a lung, it's filled with cold
    Suffocating slow
    The wind blows wild and I may move
    The politicians lie and I am not fooled
    You don't need no razor or a three piece suit
    To argue the truth
    They air on my skin in the world under my toes
    Slavery stitched to the fabric of my clothes
    Chaos and commotion wherever I go
    Love I try to follow
    Love will come, set me free
    Love will come, set me free, I do believe
    Love will come, set me free, I know it will
    Love will come, set me free, yes
    There ain't no reason things are this way
    It's how they've always been and they intend to stay
    I can't explain why we live this way
    We do it every day
