So, you know how certain songs make me think of certain people? Well, maybe you don't. But I've compiled a bit of a list throughout the school year. No particular order. Care to see if you made it? 1)-Starting Now: Ingrid Michaelson "I want to crawl back inside my mother's womb I want to shut out all the lights in this room I want to start fresh, like a baby in a sink Scrub away all these thoughts that i think of you So life moves slowly when you're waiting for it to boil Feel like i watch from 6 feet under the soil Still want to hold you and kiss behind your ears But i re count the countless tears that i lost for you But before you finally go there's one thing you should know: That I promise - Starting now I'll never know your name Starting now I'll never feel the same Starting now I wish you never came into my world. I want to crawl back inside my bed of sin I want to burn the sheets that smell like your skin Instead I'll wash them just like kitchen rags with stains Spinning away every piece that remains of you. But before you finally go there's one thing you should know: That I promise - Starting now I'll never know your name Starting now I'll never feel the same Starting now I wish you never came into my world. It's my world, it's not ours anymore It's my world, it's not ours anymore Starting now I'll never know your name Starting now I'll never feel the same Starting now I wish you never came into my world." Don't be shy, go ahead and pull up an MP3 or something. It's cute. It's sticky cute. Can't say I can handle much of Ingrid dear. Anyways, the point right? This seems to be song I try to convince myself of. So in reality, there are two people here. With a cute little melodramatic story that has yet to complete playing out. How do I plan on it ending? Simply. This time next year I'll be freaking out about it, but once the year's over... Well, the story will just be one to tell future friends. That's the expected outcome. Could it be different? Oh, things could be very different. Things could escalate, but I'd rather not think about that now. Moving on... 2)-If You're Lucky, No One Will Get Hurt-Daphne Loves "Rest your bones, I am feeling weak again so please rest with me. I dare not ask who's been helping you fall asleep, oh honey. I'm so tense, gasoline machines can't save me now. Is this how you get what you want? Cause I'd give you everything And I could be destructive too. I'll do anything you make me do. And I can be the one who brings this down. No, please don't make me, please don't make me. Change is coming, yes it's on its way to make things fair, And I'm colliding with the space you're making. Oh honey now I'm afraid that this is way, this is the way you're gonna be. And I could be destructive too. I'll do anything you make me do. And I can be the one who brings this down. No, please don't let me, please don't let me. I'll hunt the hands that took my place, and hang them on the wall so high. I'll make this fair if it's what you want. I dare not ask, I dare not ask for more." Now honestly, this one is worth looking up if you haven't heard it. Daphne Loves Derby just has that easy listening style about them. But the person I'm talking about here is someone I don't deserve. Don't tell me I don't give myself enough credit, because it's entirely true. Maybe it's because Anyone who's stayed as close as you have left. And you're just the first one to come around since then. Don't let me screw this up. I don't want to be the one to leave. 3)-Baby, Come on; +44 "She's a pretty girl. She's always falling down. And I think I just fell in love with her, But she won't ever remember, remember. And I can always find her at the bottom of a plastic cup. Drowning in drunk sincerity. A sad and lonely girl. Quit crying your eyes out. Quit crying your eyes out and, Baby come on. Isn't there something familiar about me? The past is only the future with the lights on. Quit crying your eyes out, Baby. And she said, I think we're running out of alcohol. Tonight, I hate this fucking town. And all my best friends will be the death of me, But they won't ever remember, remember. So please take me far away, before I melt into the ground. And all my words get used against me. This sad and lonely girl. Quit crying your eyes out. Quit crying your eyes out and, Baby come on. Isn't there something familiar about me? The past is only the future with the lights on. Quit crying your eyes out, Baby. Quit crying your eyes out. Quit crying your eyes out and, Baby come on. Isn't there something familiar about me? The past is only the future with the lights on. Quit crying your eyes out. Isn't there something familiar about me? Quit crying your eyes out. The past is only the future with the lights on. So quit crying your eyes out, Baby." If you've decided to look these up, I recommend the acoustic version. I met you this year, and I think you can see even that you've grown. And I'm proud of you. I know you may not believe me entirely, but I really, truly am proud. You've opened your eyes and found, well, simply happy. And it's okay to be okay. I promise. (: I love you....a lot... 5)-Here (In Your Arms); Hellogoodbye "I like, Where we are, When we drive, In your car. I like, Where we are, Here. Cause our lips, Can touch. And our cheeks, Can brush. Our lips can touch, Here. Where you are the one, the one, That lies close to me. Whispers, "Hello, I've missed you quite terribly." I fell in love, in love, With you suddenly. Now there's no place else, I could be, but, Here in your arms. I like, Where you sleep, When you sleep, Next to me. I like, Where you sleep, Here. Our lips, Can touch. And our cheeks, Can brush. Cause our lips can touch, Here. Where you are the one, the one, That lies close to me. Whispers, "Hello, I've missed you quite terribly." I fell in love, in love, With you suddenly. Now there's no place else, I could be, but, Here in your arms. Our lips can touch. Our lips can touch, Here. You are the one, the one, That lies close to me. Whispers, "Hello, I've missed you quite terribly." I fell in love, in love, With you suddenly. Now there's no place else, I could be, but, Here in your... You are the one, the one, That lies close to me. Whispers, "Hello, I've missed you quite, miss you quite..." I fell in love, in love, With you suddenly. Now theres no place else, I could be, but, Here in your arms. Here in your arms. Oh, here in your... arms." Before anyone asks, this song is not interpreted word for word in this case. No. I never fell in love with them. Hear me out. This person just makes everything okay, and I don't think she knows it. No. I know she doesn't know it. Will I tell her this? Someday maybe. She'd be likely to ask about it anyways. I feel that I can connect with her on anything even though I never seem to take up the opportunity. I wish she'd understand how she's effected me positively. Because she has. 6)-Everything's Magic; Angels and Airwaves "And do you ever feel like you're alone? And do you ever wish you'd be unknown? I could say that I have.. I could say that I have.. And do you ever feel things here aren't right? And do you ever feel the time slip by? I can say that I have.. And I can say that I have.. So hear this please And watch as your heart speeds up endlessly And look for the stars as the sun goes down Each breath that you take has a thunderous sound Everything, everything's magic Just sit back and hold on, but hold on tight Prepare for the best and the fastest ride And reach out your hand, and i'll make you mine Everything, everything's magic And do you ever lay awake at night? And do you ever tell yourself don't try? Don't try to let yourself down Don't try to let yourself down And do you ever see yourself in love? And do you ever take a chance, my love? Because you know that I will.. Because you know that I will.. So hear this please And watch as your hearts speeds up endlessly And look for the stars as the sun goes down Each breath that you take has a thunderous sound Everything, everything's magic Just sit back and hold on, but hold on tight Prepare for the best and the fastest ride And reach out your hand, and i'll make you mine Everything, everything's magic Everything, everything's magic So hear this please And watch as your hearts speeds up endlessly And look for the stars as the sun goes down Each breath that you take has a thunderous sound Everything, everything's magic Just sit back and hold on, but hold on tight Prepare for the best and the fastest ride And reach out your hand, and i'll make you mine Everything, everything's magic" Oh my, this is going to sound stupid. Remember that time in PacSun when this song came on and I asked everyone in the store what it was and they didn't know? Then we went home and looked for it for a couple months. Then one day it poped up on your myspace and I flipped out on you at school for finding it? (Props for you btw :D) It's stuff like that that makes me really appreciate our friendship. Warped tour and deep conversations about the universe? You've got it. 7)-So I Thought; Flyleaf "All your twisted thoughts free flow To everlasting memories Show soul Kiss the stars with me And dread the wait for Stupid calls returning us to life We say to those who are in love It can't be true 'cause we're too young I know that's true because so long I was So in love with you So I thought A year goes by And I can't talk about it On my knees Dim lighted room Thoughts free flow try to consume Myself in this I'm not faithless Just paranoid of getting lost or that I might lose Ignorance is bliss cherish it Pretty neighborhoods You learn too much to hold Believe it not And fight the tears With pretty smiles and lies About the times A year goes by And I can't talk about it The times weren't right And I couldn't talk about it Choris Romance says goodnight Close your eyes and I'll close mine Remember you, remember me Hurt the first, the last, between Choris Romance says goodnight Close your eyes and I'll close mine Remember you, remember me Hurt the first, the last, between And I'm praying that we will see Something there in between Then and there that exceeds all we can dream So we can talk about it [guitar solo] Choris Romance says goodnight Close your eyes and I'll close mine Remember you, remember me Hurt the first, the last, between Choris Romance says goodnight Close your eyes and I'll close mine Remember you, remember me Hurt the first, the last, between And I'm praying that we will see Something there in between Then and there that exceeds all we can dream And all these twisted thoughts I see Jesus there in between And all these twisted thoughts I see Jesus there in between" I had difficulty with your song. There was a lot I could have done, but I felt they were too obvious. You've been there subtly, in the shadows almost. This was one of the first songs we clicked together on. I don't know, you just said how nice it was to talk to me, but I don't think you get how nice it is to talk to you. You inspire me. 8)-Syndicate; The Fray "Half way around the world lies the one thing that you want Buried in the ground, hundreds of miles down The first thing that arises in your mind when you awake Is bending you 'til you break, let me hold you now Baby close your eyes, don't open 'til the morning light Baby don't forget, we haven't lost it all yet Don't know what you're made of 'til the one thing that you want Is coming with the dawn and suddenly changes The Monday syndicate meets everyone the same All we've lost to the flame, listen to me now Baby close your eyes, don't open 'til the morning light Don't ever forget, we haven't lost it all yet All we know for sure is all that we are fighting for Baby, don't forget we haven't lost it all yet Someday when this is over We may still have no answer For now it's when I hold her We are closer, we are closer Baby, close your eyes, don't open 'til the morning light Don't ever forget, we haven't lost it all yet All we know for sure is all that we are fighting for Baby, don't forget we haven't lost it all yet We haven't lost it all yet We are closer, we are closer" "Actually, you don't know me, but I'm going to be going to Central next year and wanted to know if we may have classes together." Something along those lines. (: Remember when we were going to "finish out project" That was great. I feel lucky. I don't know if I should be, but I really am happy that we can have these kind of discussions. It's silly, and simple, but my reason for remembering you goes farther than you think. 9)Something's Coming; "Could be Who knows? There's something due any day I will know right away Soon as it shows It may come cannonballin' down through the sky Gleam in its eye Bright as a rose! Who knows? It's only just out of reach Down the block, on a beach Under a tree I got a feeling there's a miracle due Gonna come true Coming to me Could it be? Yes it could Something's coming Something good If I can wait Something's coming I don't know what it is But it is Gonna be great! With a click With a shock Phone'll jingle Door'll knock Open the latch! Something's coming, don't know when But it's soon Catch the moon One handed catch Around the corner Or whistling down the river Come on - deliver To me Will it be? Yes it will Maybe just by holding still It'll be there! Come on, something, come on in Don't be shy Meet a guy Pull up a chair The air is hummin' And something great is coming Who knows It's only just Out of reach Down the block, on a beach Maybe tonight Maybe tonight..." Come on...someone had to get. Happiest unexpected occurrence at the very end of the school year. And the timing was ridiculous. And it got me through. Yes honey, you did well. I have to say that's the longest on going conversation I've ever had. You seemed to be that something that came...sorry it's in musical form (: Next! 10)-Over This; Ace Enders “Let's just say, that I am over this I am done with it, and moving on. So let's pretend, that it was perfect. And it was worth it, and all is good. But it's hard times, to make it seem alright. Oh please because, We need some saving To help prevent our hearts from breaking So we can say that all of this was worth it. So let's just say, that I deserved it. I worked and earned it, would that be wrong? We're moving on, never regret it And please don't expect it 'Cause we're on our own. But it's hard times, to make it seem alright. Oh please because, We need some saving To help prevent our hearts from breaking So we can say that all of this was worth it. We need some saving To help prevent our hearts from breaking So we can say that all of this was worth it. We need some saving To help prevent our hearts from breaking So we can say that all of this was worth it.” Thank for allowing me to gush from time to time. Thank you for being someone I trust. Thank you for trusting me. I know we’ve had these conversations before, but I honestly do feel like I can trust you with a lot. Thank you so much for that…you really have no idea. Last one… 11)-Behind the Sea (Alternate version); Panic at the Disco “A daydream spills from my corked head Breaks free of my wooden neck Left a nod over sleeping waves Like bobbing bait for bathing cod Floating flocks of candled swans Slowly drift across wax ponds The men all played along To marching drums And boy did they have fun Behind the sea They sang So our matching legs Are marching clocks And we're all too small To talk to God Yes, we're all too smart To talk to God Toast the fine folks casting silver crumbs To us from the dock Jinxed things ringing as they leak Through tiny cracks in the boardwalk Scarecrow, now it's time to hatch Sprouting sons and ageless daughters Those watermelon smiles Just can't ripen underwater Just can't ripen underwater The men all played along To marching drums And boy did they have fun Behind the sea They sang So our matching legs Are marching clocks And we're all too small To talk to God Yeah, we're all too smart To talk to God Oh, we're all too smart To talk to God” Why? Because the lyrics make about as much sense as your thought process sometimes (: I won’t say we’ve been through a lot…because we haven’t. I won’t say we were inseparable…because we weren’t. But you were always there… It’s a nice thing. I could have added a lot more to this list…like, A LOT more. Throughout this year, I’ve encountered a lot of stuff…and without it, I wouldn’t have changed. So thank you for molding me. I know, I know…that sounds creepy, but it happens. People happen. Life happens. I intend to live life, thank you very much. |
