since i don't really feel like writing much . .. i thought i'd post a few of my favorite lyrics from various songs since i can't fit everything on my AIM profile . . . "Cold, cold water surrounds me now And all I've got is your hand Lord, can you hear me now? Lord, can you hear me now? Lord, can you hear me now? Or am I lost?" - Damien Rice in "Cold Water" "I want to be a lion Everybody wants to pass as cats We all want to be big big stars, but we got different reasons for that Believe in me because I don't believe in anything and I want to be someone to believe" - Counting Crows in "Mr. Jones" (I'm not really sure why I love this line so much . . . I guess it's the combo of a great transition with good drums . . . that's always a bonus!) "Everybody knows that something's wrong But nobody knows what's going on We all sing the same old song When you want it all to go away It's shaping up to be a lonely day" - Phantom Planet in "Lonely Day" (good song when you're depressed or whatever . . . i can connect with these lyrics when i have a secret too) "I've been watching your world from afar, I've been trying to be where you are, And I've been secretly falling apart, I'll see. To me, you're strange and you're beautiful, You'd be so perfect with me but you just can't see, You turn every head but you don't see me" - Aqualung "Strange & Beautiful" (do i have to say anything? i'm sure everyone feels like this at some point in their lives . . .) "They say it fits, if you let it Love is made to forget it I carved your name across my eyelids You pray for rain, i pray for blindness" - Arcade Fire "Crown of Love" (i love this opening!) "Hope dangles on a string Like slow spinning redemption Winding in and winding out The shine of it has caught my eye And roped me in So, mesmerizing and so hypnotizing, I am captivated, I am Vindicated I am selfish I am wrong I am right I swear I'm right Swear I knew it all along And I am flawed, but I am cleaning up so well I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself" - Dashboard Confessional in "Vindicated" (great chorus!) "Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones And I will try to fix you." - Coldplay in "Fix You" "Mercy's eyes are blue When she places them in front of you Nothing holds a roman candle to The solemn warmth you feel inside" - The Shins in "Saint Simon" (This chorus is soooooooo pretty! THANKS HANNAH!) "Is it getting better? Or do you feel the same? Will it make it easier on you now? You got someone to blame You say One love One life When it's one need In the night One love We get to share it Leaves you baby if you Don't care for it" - U2 in "One" (this is such a beautiful song!!!!!!!! idk why there are so few teens who like U2! what's your problem?! hahhaha) "I want to trip inside your head Spend the day there... To hear the things you haven't said And see what you might see" - U2 in "Miracle Drug" (again . . . a nice opening!) "Close your eyes fore your eyes will only tell the truth And the truth isn't what you want to see In the dark it is easy to pretend That the truth is what it ought to be" - The Phantom in "The Music of the Night" (omg . . . i absolutely, positively LOVE this song!) "I feel so isolated, well I feel so damn frustrated Cos I know it ain't right and I really wanna stop it Fingers slipping more and more I can't help it This must be destined to end" - Plush in "Postcard" (such a pretty song . . . this is a South African acoustic group that i saw while i was over there . . . it's sooooooooo sad how Chaz, their amazing electric guitar player that looked like Orlando Bloom, died . . .) "I want to run I want to hide I want to tear down the walls That hold me inside I want to reach out And touch the flame Where the streets have no name" - U2 in "Where the Streets Have No Name" (omg . . . love it!) "And I know it aches And your heart, it breaks And you can only take so much Walk on... " - U2 in "Walk On" (an inspirational song!) ok . . . i might add more later . . . hahaha
