Your fingertips across my skin The palm trees swaying in the wind… Images

To “A Fine Frenzy”

CONGRADULATIONS!

You have made the very VERY short list of female singers that I can continuously listen to without becoming irritated.

Joining the ranks of Celine Dion and the girl from Caedmon's Call.

You should feel honored,

Leslie

---------------------------------------------

That being said. I’m addicted.

“Your fingertips across my skin
The palm trees swaying in the wind
Images
You sang me Spanish lullabies
The sweetest sadness in your eyes
Clever trick
I never want to see you unhappy
I thought you'd want the same for me
Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do
We walked along a crowded street
You took my hand and danced with me
Images
And when you left you kissed my lips
You told me you would never let forget these images, no
I never want to see you unhappy
I thought you'd want the same for me
Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do
I cannot go to the ocean
I cannot drive the streets at night
I cannot wake up in the morning
Without you on my mind
So you're gone and I'm haunted
And I bet you are just fine
Did I make it that easy
To walk right in and out of my life?
Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do”

Hallelujah

Well I heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do ya?
Well it goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

WOW.

Its been a crazy couple of weeks, im getting promoted and transfered, im meeting a million different people, im signing a lease in the next week, Ive started paying of my car, and I got to see everyone that I love in this world in the last 2 weeks.

Its no wonder I landed myself in the hospital. lol

Thats how it goes I suppose, I go until I burn myself out. But at least i've made a fast recovery. One night and im back out.. Im like a weeble wabble... I never FULLY fall down
:D

That I'm grateful for.

God is good. He's proven that much. I'm still working so hard, and I think, I really hope and pray, that it is paying off now.

Thanks everyone new and old for following this blog, it has been such a blessing to have the ability to be heard.

-Till next time.

Yeah its like this again…

Another night where NO ONE can possibly understand. Well they could.. but no one wants to.

I hate feeling this way.. a lot.

If you understood this… just say something…



“Well I met you at the blood bankWe were looking at the bags
Wondering if any of the colorsMatched any of the names we knew on the tags
You said see look it that's yoursStacked on top with your brothers
See how they resemble one anothers?Even in their plastic little covers
And I said I know it wellThat secret that you know
That you don't know how to tellit f--ks with your honorAnd it teases your head
But you know that its good girlCause its running you with red.


That secret that we knowThat we don't know how to tell
I'm in love with your honorI'm in love with your cheeks
what's that noise up the stairs baby?Is that Christmas morning?
And I know it well (8x)



 


 


Horrible Horrible Day.


I just need a hand to get up this time…

Traffic Jam in the rain =

There's a place I'd like to go somewhere out west,
it's not specific, and the pictures show it best.
I know there's trees I know there's sand and I know there's grass,
I know it's somewhere in the past.
There's a girl out there who's lookin’ for it too,
she's not sure when she'll go or exactly what she'll do.


If i am doomed am I the first on or the last?
Am I just someone from the past?
No one has to hear, the sound of people laughing at their fear, and the ocean and sun are always there, to make you happy if you're feeling scared of the darkness.


If I ever saw a ghost it'd change the way I think.
I wouldn't gasp for air if ever I did sink.
I wouldn't struggle, I'd just let it all out fast,
and then start living in the past.
If we hold the hand that rapes the hand,
and everyone can feel the hand,
and nothing's gonna change,
it could be the time we're living in,
we'll never feel so safe again,
but love always remains

Runnin'

Another year has changed me. I'm running in search of who I am, before I am changed again...

How am I supposed to find her though? Where/When do I find myself.. is it in what I do? Do I actually know myself very well, but as with everything else I'm second guessing? Over Analyzing?

My old theory of waiting for someone to tell me who I am has so many holes in it, I could strain spaghetti through it.


Life swells and turns and sways like the sea.. who are we but simple people riding it out?
I don't like admitting that I am now different.. I really don't. I wish I was carefree, and simple, and easy to please.. but the truth is some days I feel so complicated, that I can't even figure out myself.. not to mention trying to sympathize with someone else who is trying to understand me.

I guess we just keep on. Trust God. Put it all out there day after day. And someday, somehow.. It all works out.. we find ourselves... we find those who love us... and we finish hard knowing we did our best.

- I have to keep believing that, believing IN that.. or else.. whats the point?




Honey I'm pleading
let's put away the sticks and stones
be human beings
I have the sense to be afraid to be a fool

You push me out again
You push me up against a wall
You told me once your body flowed
with milk and honey
but what happened to our boy
inside your tummy?
I have the sense to be afraid, to be a fool
but I'm on the fence
to make you stay or to be cruel

You perfume covered helpless louse,
look on the bright side
See, every time you laugh out loud
I'm crying inside
I have the sense to be afraid, to be the fool
Try commonsense. Make me believe
believe in you

I should have known you'd kick me hard
when I'm on the ground

A darkened boxlike device in which images of external objects, received through an aperture, as with a convex lens, are exhibited in their natural colors on a surface arranged to receive them….

My fav. driving song so far for the summer.
