Episode(s)	"House of the Rising Sun"

"Are You Sure?", sung and written by Willie Nelson, is a song featured in "House of the Rising Sun" on Hurley's CD player. The version Hurley is listening to has only been released on Nelson's 2003 Crazy: The Demo Sessions compilation. The song lyric "Are you sure this is where you want to be?" is possibly intended to be symbolic: the survivors' decisions to move to the caves or stay on the beach. In a larger symbolic meaning, the lyric could refer to the fact that some survivors, like Locke, want to stay on The Island, and are, technically, sure of where they want to be. Others, like Kate, are unsure of whether they want to be on The Island, thus the repeating question: Are you sure this is where you want to be?

Lyrics

“

Oh, look around you Look down the bar from you The lonely faces that you see Are you sure that this is where you want to be These are your friends But are they real friends Do they love you the same as me Are you sure that this is where you want to be You seem in such a hurry to live this kind of life You've caused so many pain and misery Look around you, take a good look And tell me what you see Are you sure that this is where you want to be Don't let my tears persuade you, I had hoped I wouldn't cry But lately, teardrops seem a part of me Oh, look around you, take a good look At all the local used-to-be's Are you sure that this is where you want to be
