I'm standing on a bridge
I'm waiting in the dark
I thought that you'd be here by now
There's nothing but the rain
No footsteps on the ground

Isn't anyone trying to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new

I don't know who you are but I
I'm with you
I'm with you

I'm looking for a place
I'm searching for a face
Is anybody here I know

Cause nothing's going right
And everything's a mess
And no one likes to be alone

... ...

Why is everything so confusing
Maybe I'm just out of my mind
Yeah yeah...


The above is a song I found in an English magazine. The lyric is very suitable to those people here in CS just like me.
Sometimes we like certain song, certain literature works, certain films...etc, just because that we can find ourselves images in it. That's called acoustic resonance in Chinese. Do you use this phrase to express this kind of feeling?

Thanks for reading

Here, we may use "acoustic resonance" as determining the best sounding box ( acoustic) guitar. That, as well as "harmonic matrix" which determines the overall flux of the sound it brings.

I've never heard it being used as you've described, but I can't say if it is used for that expression.

I looked up in google dictionary. I think I should say like this:

The lyric really knocks me out. or

The lyric struck a chord with me.

Is that right?

Because your learning and I wrote you were correct but failed to spell the word correctly, it's lyrics(plural) for many words not just one.. make sense now?
