For You Lyrics

"For you" is a favorite song of mine. We've all been alone at one time or another - and when I listen to this song; I see a compilation of my life in sequences of clips; some good, and some tough times, and times when I'm sitting somewhere alone, just thinking. The music is strangely mellow enough to make me feel indifferent, and how bitterness has made me a much wiser person than I ever thought I'd be.

I started liking this song when I saw it on youtube, with clips from House M.D. with the slow intro in the background when Cameron and Wilson are talking about House. "Why does he hate his parents?" to which Wilson quipped a reply, "he hates being a disappointment." And Cameron then says "He's a doctor, world famous; how disappointed can they be?" and Wilson says "You know what I figure is worse than watching your kid become crippled? Watching him become miserable." and that was what hooked me to this song.
