Song of the Day

     Song followed me around all day.  Couldn't deny it.

Song(s) of the Day

Fix You - Coldplay
When you try your best, but you don't succeed.  When you get what you want, but not what you need.  When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep.  Stuck in reverse.

And the tears come streaming down your face.  When you lose something you can't replace.  When you love someone, but it goes to waste.  Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home and ignite your bones.  And I will try to fix you.

And high up above or down below.  When you're too in love to let it go, but if you never try you'll never know just what you're worth.

I promise you I will learn from my mistakes.

No, It Isn't - (+44)
This is where the road, crashed into the ocean.  It rises all around me and now we're barely breathing.  A thousand faces we'll choose to ignore.

Curse my enemies forever, let's slit our wrists and burn down something beautiful.

I listen to you cry, a cry for less attention.  But both my hands are tied and I'm pushed into the deep end.  I listen to you talk but talk is cheap.  And my mouth is filled with blood, from trying not to speak.  So search for an excuse, and someone to believe you.

Lay rotting where I fall.  I'm dead from bad intentions.  Suffocated and embalmed and now all our dreams are cashed in.  You swore you wouldn't lose then lost your brain.  You make a sound that feels like pain.

Make You Smile - (+44)
The last time I saw you, you turned away.

I said 'hello' but you kept on walking.

Do you remember where we used to sleep at night?

I couldn't feel you, you're always so far away.

I don't, don't wanna take you home.  Please don't, don't make me sleep alone.  If I could, I'd only want to make you smile.  If you would stay with me a while.

The next time I see you, you'll turn away.  I'll say 'hello' and you'll keep on walking.

All That I've Got - The Used
Off-guard, red-handed, now I'm far from lonely.  Asleep, I still see you lying next to me.

I need something else.  Would someone please just give me.  Hit me, knock me out and let me go back to sleep.  I can laugh all I want, inside I still am empty.

I'll be just fine, pretending I'm not.  I'm far from lonely and it's all that I've got.

I guess, I remember every glance you shot me.

So deep that it didn't even bleed and catch me.  So deep that I didn't even scream, fuck me.

Fireflies - Owl City
I'd like to make myself believe, that planet Earth turns slowly.  It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep.  'Cause everything is never as it seems.

Leave my door open just a crack.  Please take me away from here.  'Cause I feel like such an insomniac.

Why do I tire of counting sheep?

I'm far too tired to fall asleep.

I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes.  I got misty eyes as they said farewell.

My dreams are bursting at the seams.

I'm Ready - Jack's Mannequin
And today was a day just like any other.

I'm on the verge, unraveling with every word.  With every word you say, make me believe.

As I'm finding the words, you're getting away.

I come undone, oh yes I do.  Just think of all the thoughts wasted on you.  And every word you say, say something sweet.  'Cause all I taste is blood between my teeth.

Well I'm ready, I'm ready to drop.  Oh, I'm ready, I'm ready so don't stop.  I'm ready so don't stop, keep pushing.  I'm ready to fall, oh, I'm ready.  I'm ready so don't call, I'm ready so don't call.

I am aware, I've been misled.  I disconnect my heart, my head.  Don't wanna recognize when things go bad.  The things that you'll accept, except that I am finding the words...

My life has become a boring pop song and everyone's singing along.

Song(s) of the Day

Summer Paradise - Simple Plan
My heart is sinking as I'm lifting up above the clouds away from you.  And I can't believe I'm leaving, oh I don't know what I'm gonna do.  But someday, I will find my way back to where your name is written in the sand.

'Cause I remember every sunset, I remember every word you said.  We were never gonna say goodbye.  Tell me how to get back to, back to summer paradise with you and I'll be there in a heartbeat.

My soul is broken, streets are frozen.  I can't stop these feelings melting through.

I'd give away a thousands days just to have another one with you.

I remember sunny morning and summer evenings.  Now you're not next to me and I am freezing.  Was it real?

Now my heartbeat is sinking, hope's shrinking.  When I try to speak no words, lip-syncing.  Hope this is not just wisful thinking, tell me that you care and I'll be there in a heartbeat.

I remember when we first kissed.  How I didn't wanna leave your lips and how I've never ever felt so high.
Last Chance to Lose Your Keys - Brand New
You told me you can't wait to see me and you didn't bother to even show up.  This whole situation is incredibly typical, I should have seen it all along.  

It's girls like you that make me think I'm better off home on a Saturday night with all my doors locked up tight.

You call me on the phone and you don't even want to talk.  You're staring at me from across the room then turn your back when I walk up.  We got inches away and I never even got close.

Don't bother to look in my direction.

Forget everything you think you know about me.  This isn't high school.
Break Apart Her Heart - Good Charlotte
When you call, she doesn't answer.  When you write, she doesn't answer.  You go out, you see him with her, she told you she was sick at home.  The ring you gave her thrown away with all the letters and when you see him with her, he doesn't even care at all.

As she follows him around like you follow her around and he doesn't even care and you're figuring out.  The only way you're gonna keep somebody around, well I'm about to let you know...

There's something I don't wanna understand, the only way a woman is gonna want a man, the only way you'll ever keep her in your hands is breaking apart her heart.  Don't tell her she is the reason that you live, don't give her everything that you got to give.  If you want to keep the girl for as long as you live, just break it apart, her heart.

Can't you see the way she's crying.  Well that's what keeps her trying, she knew that she could have you and he don't give her what she wants.  There's truth about this, you say you want to be noticed.  Well if you want to be noticed you gotta learn to break some hearts.  Don't try to understand.

Can't you see what you've done?  What I've become?

I don't understand this cruelty.  I don't understand but now I see.
I Swear This Time I Mean It - Mayday Parade
Look how she's so serene.

I want to keep her dreaming, it's my one wish, I won't forget this.

I'm outdated, overrated.  Morning seems so far away.

So I'll sing a melody and hope to God she's listening, sleeping softly while I sing.  And I'll be your memories, your lullaby for all the times.  Hoping that my voice could get it right.

If luck is on my side tonight, my clumsy tongue will make it right.  And wrists that touch, it isn't much, but it's enough.

Forget your scares, we'll forget mind.  The hours change so fast, oh God, please make this last.

You could crush me.  Please don't crush me.  'Cause baby I'm a dreamer, for sure.  And I won't let you down.  I swear this time I mean it.
Vanilla Twilight - Owl City
I lie awake and miss you.

I'll doze off safe and soundly, but I'll miss your arms around me.  I'd send a postcard to you, dear.  'Cause I wish you were here.

I'll watch the night turn light blue, but it's not the same without you.  Because it takes two to whisper quietly.

The silence isn't so bad, 'til I look at my hands and feel sad.  'Cause the spaces between my fingers are right where yours fit perfectly.

I haven't slept in two days, 'cause cold nostalgia chills me to the bone.  But drenched in vanilla twilight, I'll sit on the front porch all night.  Waist-deep in thought because when I think of you, I don't feel so alone.

As many times as I blink. I'll think of you tonight.

I'll forget the world I know, but I swear I won't forget you.  Oh, if my voice could reach back through the past.  I'd whisper in your eay, oh darling, I wish you were here.

Song(s) of the Day

This Is Home - Switchfoot
I've got my memories.  They're always inside of me, but I can't go back, back to how it was.  I believe it now, I've come too far, but I can't go back, back to how it was.  Created for a place I've never known.

This is home.  Now I'm finally where I belong.

I've been searching for a place of my own.  Now I've found it.  Maybe this is home.

Belief over misery.  I've seen the enemy and I won't go back, back to how it was.  And I've got my heart set on what happens next.

And now after all my searching, after all my questions, I'm gonna call it home.

Rainbow Connection - The Muppets
Why are there so many songs about rainbows and what's on the other side?  Rainbows are visions, but only illusions.  So we've been told and some choose to believe it.  I know they're wrong, wait and see.  Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection.  The lovers, the dreamers and me.

Who said that every wish would be heard and answered when wished on the morning star?  Somebody thought of that and someone believed it.  Look what it's done so far.  What's so amazing that keeps us star gazing and what do we think we might see?

All of us under its spell.  We know that it's probably magic.

Have you been half asleep and have you heard voices?  I've heard them calling my name.  Is this the sweet sound that called the young sailors?  The voice might be one and the same.  I've heard it too many times to ignore it.  It's something that I'm supposed to be.

Song(s) of the Day

Like a ferris wheel, full of blue-green eyes.  And a heart of steel, always on her own.  Almost never real.

When the night will begin, the pain it won't end, even if she falls in love.  Back, you wanna turn back, your heart will attack, even if she falls in love.

And she was like a blade of ice, like a lonely road, clear as day, alive.  Always sharp and cold, always beautiful.  I am such a fool

Try to look in her eyes, the light is just right, even if she falls in love.  And it isn't so bad, it's driving you mad, even if she falls in love.


By the time I was your age, I'd give anything.  To fall in love truly was all I could think.

I'm only telling you this because life can do terrible things.

Too young to notice and too dumb to care.

You'll learn, one day, I'll hope and I'll pray that God shows you differently.

So don't fall in love there's just too much to lose.  If you're given the choice, I'm begging you choose to walk away, walk away.  Don't let it get you.  I can't bare to see the same happen to you.

Song(s) of the Day

Here we go again, another night of being bummed.  I keep to myself, avoid society and cancel plans with everyone.  I know 'cause it's just how it always ends.  Our bond will break 'cause you can't relate to anyone, to anything at all. 

You brought your worst and I'm right here.  Now I've seen it all and it's never been so clear.

You're not the person that I knew back then.  It's all too late to set things straight 'cause everything has been.

Let's try and act like this didn't happen.  Follow your friends like you ever had them.

You still know me.  Still not cut out for this sort of thing.  Never wanted to be caught in between, I need constant reminders of everything.  So what!  It's who I am, but I think I played it off so well.  I just hold it in, no matter how I've been, so nobody, nobody can tell

I won't sleep 'till the break of dawn


I wonder if you'll notice if they lock me up and throw away the key.  Try to be open-minded, you've got a lot to learn in the ways of me.  You've always got to say something, I'm none of your concern but you won't listen at all.  You know I'd rather say nothing and be proud of myself for tearing down these walls.

When you fall I'll be the only one who looks away.  When you call I'll be the first to tell you I can't stay.  It's all over, I've found a better way to keep you from me.  I'm better off this way.

We can settle this like gentlemen or meet me at the back to end it all inside again.  My whole life's been waiting, ever since I can remember.  Been anxious awaiting your fall and God let it be a long while.  Can't let go of my life 'till I know you're done.

You want it, you've got it.  You've always been such a waste of time

A friend of yours is no friend of mine.

When will you act your age?

You're the reason things have to change.

Song of the Day

There's something in the way you people smell, like you've got no soul at all.

Is your schedule sufficient tonight, you toad?  Hope another bar until the rooster crows.

This song belongs to you and all your crew.  This curse will sting the worse as it shall mark you.

I'd rather spend an evening giving birth than see how your eyes are glued on everyone but the person you're talking to.  And trapped between babushkas on a plan is a fraction of how lame it is to watch you pump the poison through your veins.

You'd probably think this means I'd give up on you.  The saddest part is this is why I come.  To watch and pray that I'm mistaken and pray I'm not the only one.  Try not to care about this, I know that this is hopeless.  No one notices it.  Not losing sleep over this, you people are unredeemable, indescribable, all but evil.
