Song of the day :: 12 Days of Christmas. Straight No Chaser

Ha this is the greatest version of the 12 days of Christmas by far. You have to listen to the whole thing! hahaha
I HAD CHRISTMAS DOWN IN AFRICA! haha

Song of the day :: All About Us ft. Owl City. He is We.

This song is so cute and excellently done-He is We is a pretty epic band. I have listened to them a lot lately and I love it. I had never seen the music video though but it totally made me cry at the end! Ah so sweet. True love is real!

Song of the day :: Ready To Go. Panic! At The Disco:

We watched the Smurf Movie yesterday (fantastically fun family show I seriously laughed several times) and this song was at the end and it totally made my song of the day today. It's awesome! Sometimes Panic's stuff is crazy and weird but I liked this one. Yay for new songs!

You've got yourself things
That you've been running from
You either love it or I guess you don't
You're such a pretty thing
To be running from anyone
A vision with nowhere to go

So tell me right now
You think you're ready for it
I wanna know
Why you got me going
So let's go
We'll take it out of here
I think I'm ready to leave
I'm ready to live

I'm ready to go
(Get me out of my mind
Get me out of my mind)
I'm ready to go
(Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh)

You've got yourself things
You wanted somethin' for 'em
You either get it or I guess you won't
What does it really mean
To get nothin' from anyone
There's a million ways it could go

I think I'm ready
I think I'm more ready
I know
I think I'm ready
I think I'm more ready
I know
I think I'm ready
I think I'm more ready
I know
I think I'm ready
I think I'm more-

Song of the day :: In My Arms. Plumb.

I love this song, and it means a lot more to me now that I have my own child. I know there will be a lot of hard things I will have to watch my baby go through, but I hope she knows I will always be there to keep her safe. Hope you enjoy

A must Listen Song of the day for Dec 1:: Ho Ho Ho. Alvin and the Chipmunks

I just had to share this one. you have to listen to it at least once every season...

Song of the day :: Worth Wondering.

I heard this song on the wonderful pandora, I don't like this version as much but I really love it. I know their voices are a bit different than your usual, but I likeit.

Song of the day :: Sigh no more. Mumford and Sons.

I havent posted my song of the day in a while, but that does not mean I have not enjoyed good music, I have just not had the time. But these guys, I truly love their uniqness. These words are wonderful. and I must say the Banjo and Organ totally make this song rock. We all need to discover the "beauty of love as it is made to be." prime.

Song of the day :: Fire and Rain. Mat Kearney.

THis is a marvelous song. Words are wonderful. Sound is wonderful. Please enjoy this song.

Song of a day last week :: Arms. Christina Perri.

Last week was a little crazy and so I didn't get to put my songs of the day on my blog, but here is one of the songs that was on my mind. Christina Perri has such a uniqe style and I love her hair.

Song of the day :: Things I'll Never Say. Avril Lavigne.

So this is how I felt when I was dating my lover Tyler. All these words were pretty much going through my head when I met him. Especially the 'MARRY ME TODAY'...I am and was so in love with him and his personality that I just wanted to be perfect. Lucky for me, I was perfect enough for him :)

Song of the day :: Calling You. Blue October.

This week 2 years ago I was getting ready to marry the man of my dreams and I can't tell you how excited I was feeling. This song was one of the songs I always thought of when I was dating Tyler. I couldn't believe that he actually picked me either.

Song of the day :: Sweet Disposition. The Temper Trap.

This is a sweet song and an interesting music video. I shudder to think about how much money all those instruments were that they destroyed, but I am not going to lie, it would be super rad to sling shot an electric guitar through a mirror.

Song of the day :: Everything at Once. Lenka.

I heard this song while watching a preview for a disney movie. And I thought it was fantastic. I wish there was a cool music video to it, but the lyrics are awesome. I want to be everything at once. I might explode though.

Song of the day :: Say You Like Me. We the Kings.

This song rocks. And that is really all. It was in my head all day. Happy listening!

Song of the day :: Charmed Life. Joy Williams.

This is the real song of my day today. Such a beautifully charming song. I truly live a charmed life.

Just sit tight, dont you even think about going anywhere
Stay where you are, open up your eyes to whats already there
What I'm about to tell ya, what I'm about to say
Don't even lit it throw ya
It just might change your day

We're living a charmed life, charmed life
you and I, a charmed life

There's a well-lit sky hanging over everyone that's walking by
it's plain to see what we got is color in a world of black and white
Dont even lit it fool ya, we got everything we need
don't even let it throw ya, i know it's hard to believe

(chorus)

It's easier said than done, its true
but count your kisses one by one, we're living proof, we're living a...

Charmed life

I love this girl's voice and style. Kind of creepy, totally beautiful. Check out some of her other songs. I know this wont be the last song by her that is my song of the day.

Song of yesterday :: When We First Met. Hellogoodbye.

I love Hellogoodbye's new album! They are marvelous. And this music video was kind of cute. The girl has freaking rad hair...love the words. Sorry about some of the pictures that come up after the music video is over though. Enjoy!

Song of the day :: Cosmic Love. Florence and the Machine.

This song makes me wanto to be african. Great dancing song!

Song of the day : :A Thousand Years. Christina Perri.

AMAZING! No more words.

Song of the day ::Paradise. Coldplay.

As you all might have picked up, Coldplay is probably one of my favorite ever artists. And their new song is magical! Ahh I love it! We can all disappear into our Paradise in our dreams!

When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach
So she ran away in her sleep
Dreamed of para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Every time she closed her eyes
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh

When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach
And the bullets catch in her teeth

Life goes on
It gets so heavy
The wheel breaks the butterfly
Every tear, a waterfall
In the night, the stormy night
She closed her eyes
In the night, the stormy night
Away she flied

She dreamed of para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh

She dreamed of para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh.

La la la La
La la la

So lying underneath those stormy skies.
She said oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
I know the sun must set to rise.

This could be para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
This could be para- para- paradise
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh.

This could be para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Could be para- para- paradise
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh.

This could be para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Could be para- para- paradise
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh.

Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo
Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo

Song of the day :: Love You Like a Love Song.Selena Gomez & The Scene

Today I had this song stuck in my head all day. It just fantastic.

It's been said and done
Every beautiful thought's been already sung
And I guess right now here's another one
So your melody will play on and on, with the best of 'em
You are beautiful, like a dream come alive, incredible
A centerfold miracle, lyrical
You've saved my life again
And I want you to know baby

[Chorus]
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby

And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat

I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby

And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat

[Verse 2]
Constantly, boy you played through my mind like a symphony
There's no way to describe what you do to me
You just do to me, what you do
And it feels like I've been rescued
I've been set free
I am hypnotized by your destiny
You are magical, lyrical, beautiful
You are... And I want you to know baby

[Chorus]
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby

And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat

I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby

And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat

[Bridge]
No one compares
You stand alone, to every record I own
Music to my heart that's what you are
A song that goes on and on

[Chorus]
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby

And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat

I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby

I love you...like a love song...

Song of the other day :: Hey mama. Mat Kearney

So It has been a while since I posted my songs but its been hard without my Mac. But Mac is back :). This song is just fun and up-beat and I love the words. So there.

She don't know what she wants to be
With all the pictures in the magazines
Holding hands when she's mad at me
'cause she don't wanna go, don't wanna go

I met her at anthropology
Purple boots and her golden dreams
Standing there like a Tennessee queen
Singing don't look at me, don't look at me

Singing oh oh
won't you help me sing this song
Singing ee ee ee
She don't ever want to go to sleep

Singing hey mama, don't want no drama
Just a kiss before I leave
Hey lady, don't say maybe
You're the one that I can believe

Hey lover, don't want no other
finger for my ring

Hey mama, hey hey mama
Hey mama, hey hey mama
Hey mama, hey hey mama
Hey mama, hey hey mama

Oh oh
Ooh oh oh oh
Ooh oh oh oh

I can see it in her Cherokee eyes
Those baby browns and the golden thighs
What you doing for the rest of your life?
Cause you don't want, don't wanna go

Singing oh oh
won't you help me sing this song
Singing ee ee ee
She playing like a mystery

Singing hey mama, don't want no drama
Just a kiss before I leave
Hey lady, don't say maybe
You're the one that I can believe

Hey lover, don't want no other
finger for my ring

Hey mama, hey hey mama
Hey mama, hey hey mama
Hey mama, hey hey mama
Hey mama, hey hey mama

Oh oh
Ooh oh oh oh
Ooh oh oh oh

Couldn't be more opposite
I'm hard to please and you're hard to get
You're Mississippi and I'm Oregon
You're sun tanned and I'm porcelain skinned.

Singing hey mama, don't want no drama
Just a kiss before I leave
Hey lady, don't say maybe
You're the one that I can believe

Hey lover, don't want no other
finger for my ring

Hey mama, hey hey mama
Hey mama, hey hey mama
Hey mama, hey hey mama
Hey mama, hey hey mama

Oh oh
Ooh oh oh oh
Ooh oh oh oh

Song of the Day :: 18th Floor Balcony. Blue October.

I really just listened to this song twice yesterday so it needed to be shared.

Song of the day :: Eyes On Me. Celine Dion.

And I had to post this one cause it was my song yesterday. You all can picture me trying to dance to this song. I am amazing. ha. But I love this music so turn your speakers up and pretend that you are a sexy spanish dancer :)

Song of the day :: Sunshine On My Shoulders. John Denver.

This song is the perfect one for today because it reminds me of when I was little. On cold windy and rainy days I would cuddle up with a blanket by our fireplace and watch it pour. For some reason John Denver reminds me of those days...mostly because of Christmas time...

Song of the day :: We All Need Saving. Jon McLaughlin.

THIS SONG IS WONDEROUS! There is something about acapella sounds that makes me get goose bumps. We all need saving sometimes folks. Beautiful message and Jon McLaughlin has a dreamy voice. I LOVE IT.

Come on, come on
You have got to move on
This is not the you I know
This isn't real
It's just all you can feel
And that's the way that feelings go
And Whether or not it's right or wrong you'll do what you will do

Chorus:
When the cloud in the sky starts to pour
and your life is just a storm you're braving
Don't tell yourself you can't lean on someone else
Cause we all need saving sometimes

Say what you will but the time that we fill
While we're on the earth
should not be alone
We were meant to be known
You make me what I'm worth
But I cant keep you from yourself you'll do what you will do
(chorus)

I don't know why it has to be this way
and I don't know the cure
But please believe someone has felt this before
(chorus)

Another Song of a day :: Orinoco Flow.Celtic Woman

These women are AMAZING! I watched a performace by them and it was breathtaking how awesome they are! Beautiful voices! dahhh they give me the chills! Turn your speakers up high and enjoy!

Song of a day :: All I Need. Mat Kearney.

Sooo...my wonderful Mac computer has decided not to work right now which I am rather depressed about. This is the reason why I have not posted my songs of the day for a while because It was a lot easier on my Mac. ANYWays...I have a couple songs that have been on my mind thanks to Pandora, this one is a gem. Mat has a lovally voice that I could seldom get sick of.

Madeline's Words of Wisdom

OK this was hilarious. I laughed so hard! haha

Song of the day :: Neutron Star Collision (Love Is Forever). Muse.

So...I really am not that super obsessed with the Twilight series to have meant to put so many songs that are related to it...haha I just watched this music video for the first time and was like "dude...people are going to think you need to get a life." ANYWAY...

I have a secret and strange love for this slightly whiney group...I think they are so freaking talented. And this song is magic also. I know that my love is FOREVER :)

I was searching
You were on a mission
Then our hearts combined like
A neutron star collision

I have nothing left to lose
You took your time to choose
Then we told each other
With no trace of fear that...

Our love would be forever
And if we die
We die together
And lie, I said never
'Cause our love would be forever

The world is broken
Halos fail to glisten
You try to make a difference
But no one wants to listen

Hail, The preachers, fake and proud
Their doctrines will be cloud
Then they'll dissipate
Like snowflakes in an ocean

Love is forever
And we'll die, we'll die together
And lie, I say never
'Cause our love could be forever

Now I've got nothing left to lose
You take your time to choose
I can tell you now without a trace of fear

That my love will be forever
And we'll die we'll die together
Lie, I will never
'Cause our love will be forever

Song of the other day :: Alligator Sky. Owl City.

Ok so I found the version of Alligator Sky that I really like. There isn't a rapper in this version and I like it better. So like this one more ok! haha

Song of the day :: Edge of Glory. Lady Gaga.

Alright so I started watching Lady Gaga's music video to this song and it was a bit uncomfortable...I have to say she is the most bizzare person I have seen...but I totally just woke up with the chorus of this song stuck in my head. Its a great sing-along song cause it repeats itself so much haha. So get up and dance! Its gonna be a good week!

Song of the day Numero dos :: Alligator Sky. Owl City featuring Shawn Chrystopher.

OK and this song has do be another more favorite song of mine...My most wonderful musical siblings Gretchen and Landon introduced me to this magical lil ditty-You have to turn your speakers up for this one.

Where was I when the rockets came to life
And carried you away into the alligator sky
Even though, I'll never know what's up ahead
I'm never lettin' go, I'm never lettin' go

[Shawn Chrystopher - Rap Verse 1]
Uh uh, that's not a plane, that's me
I'm sittin' where I'm supposed to
Floatin' on the cloud, can't nobody come close to
The concrete and the sky switch places
So now my ceiling is painted with cosmic spaces
Firecracker to the moon, keep your eyes shut
Blastin' off like a rocket from the ground up
Heh, I used to catch a cab on the Monday
Now the taxi's sellin' lights on the runway, fly
Condo on the milky way
A house on the cloud and my landlord
And for my rent all I pay is my drive
Got that so If you need me you can find me in the alligator sky

[Chorus]
Where was I when the rockets came to life
And carried you away into the alligator sky
Even though I'll never know what's up ahead
I'm never lettin' go, I'm never lettin' go

[Bridge]
Roller coaster through the atmosphere
I'm drowning in this starry serenade
Where ecstasy becomes cavalier
My imagination's taking me away

Reverie whispered in my ear
I'm scared to death that I'll never be afraid
Roller coaster through the atmosphere
My imagination's taking me away

[Shawn Chrystopher - Rap Verse 2]
Uh, now I'mma dance like I never dance
Sing like I never sing, dream like I've never dreamed
Or try to, 'cause we've been lied to
That the sun is somethin' that we can't fly to
Well, I sit on my star and see street lights
Look up, ha, you'll miss me if you blink twice
Imagination is hot and if you got it you can meet me
When you see me in the alligator sky

[Chorus]
Where was I when the rockets came to life
And carried you away into the alligator sky?
Even though I'll never know what's up ahead
I'm never lettin' go, I'm never lettin' go

Where was I when the rockets came to life
And carried you away into the alligator sky?
Even though I'll never know what's up ahead
I'm never lettin' go, I'm never lettin' go

In the alligator sky...

Song of the day :: The Cave. Mumford & Sons.

Ok so this song has been my song of the day recently (within the past year) but I just LOVE THIS SONG! And I like the cool guys in the uniforms cause they are just...cool. The lyrics are great, the sound is even more great, and the trumpets seal the deal.

It's empty in the valley of your heart
The sun, it rises slowly as you walk
Away from all the fears
And all the faults you've left behind

The harvest left no food for you to eat
You cannibal, you meat-eater, you see
But I have seen the same
I know the shame in your defeat

But I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck

And I'll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again

Cause I have other things to fill my time
You take what is yours and I'll take mine
Now let me at the truth
Which will refresh my broken mind

So tie me to a post and block my ears
I can see widows and orphans through my tears
I know my call despite my faults
And despite my growing fears

But I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck

And I'll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again

So come out of your cave walking on your hands
And see the world hanging upside down
You can understand dependence
When you know the maker's hand

So make your siren's call
And sing all you want
I will not hear what you have to say

Cause I need freedom now
And I need to know how
To live my life as it's meant to be

And I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck

And I'll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again

Song of the day :: My Front Porch Looking In. Lonestar.

I know what some of you might be thinking-what the heck is Abby Graham (Baird) doing listening to a country song?! I must admit that I have had a slight change of heart concerning all country music. Mostly thanks to my sweet Heber-grown husband who only knows Mormon Tabernacle and Country songs...haha. But I have to say I really love this song. It totally says it all, what really matters, in those lyrics. Great song

The only ground I ever owned was sticking to my shoes
Now I look at my front porch and this panoramic view
I can sit and watch the fields fill up
With rays of glowing sun
Or watch the moon lay on the fences
Like that's where it was hung
My blessings are in front of me
It's not about the land
I'll never beat the view
From my front porch looking in

There's a carrot top who can barely walk
With a sippy cup of milk
A little blue eyed blonde with shoes on wrong
'Cause she likes to dress herself
And the most beautiful girl holding both of them
And the view I love the most
Is my front porch looking in, yeah

I've traveled here and everywhere
Following my job
I've seen the paintings from the air
Brushed by the hand of God
The mountains and the canyons reach from sea to shining sea
But I can't wait to get back home
To the one he made for me
It's anywhere I'll ever go and everywhere I've been
Nothing takes my breath away
Like my front porch looking in

There's a carrot top who can barely walk
With a sippy cup of milk
A little blue eyed blonde with shoes on wrong
'Cause she likes to dress herself
And the most beautiful girl holding both of them
Yeah the view I love the most
Is my front porch looking in

I see what beautiful is about
When I'm looking in
Not when I'm looking out

There's a carrot top who can barely walk
With a sippy cup of milk
A little blue eyed blonde with shoes on wrong
'Cause she likes to dress herself
And the most beautiful girl holding both of them
Yeah the view I love the most

Oh, the view I love the most
Is my front porch looking in
Yeah
Oh, there's a carrot top who can barely walk
(From my front porch looking in)
A little blue eyed blonde with shoes on wrong, yeah
And the most beautiful girl
(Beautiful girl
From my front porch looking in)
Holding both of them
Oh, yeah

Song of the day :: Wunderkind. Alanis Morisette.

So we watched "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" the other night for the hundredth time (because we just love it that much) and I never really listened to the song at the end of the movie. It is FANTASTIC! The lyrics are even better! Listen and realize that we are all a "Wunderkind."

Oh perilous place walk backwards toward you
Blink disbelieving eyes chilled to the bone
Most visibly brave no aprehended gloom
First to take this foot to virgin snow

I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind oh oh oh oooooh
And I lift the envelope pushed far enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne

Destined to serve, destined to roam

Oh ominous place spellbound and unchild-proofed
My least favorite chill to bare alone
Compatriots in place they'd cringe if I told you
Our best back-pocket secret our bond full-blown

I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind oh oh oh oooooh
I am a pioneer naive enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne

Destined to seek, destined to know

Most beautiful place reborn and blown off roof
My view about-face whether great will be done

I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind oh oh oh oooooh
I am a ground-breaker naive enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne

I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind oh oh oh oooooh
I am a Joan of Arc and smart enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne

Destined to reign, destined to roam
Destined to reign, destined to roam
Destined to reign, destined to roam
Destined to reign, destined to roam

Song of the day :: I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues. Elton John.

Song of the day :: Iridescent. Linkin Park.

This has a great message to it. I really enjoyed the lyrics to this song. Linkin Park has come out with a couple new songs that I really enjoy. I haven't seen the last Transformers so the video is a little bizzare to me but cool just the same. Read the lyrics. Cause they are good.

When you were standing in the wake of devastation
when you were waiting on the edge of the unknown
with the cataclysm raining down, insides crying save me now
you were there and possibly alone.

Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
you build up all the failiures all you've known
remember all the sadness and frustration
and let it go, let it go.

And in the burst of light that blinded every angel
as if the sky had blown the heavens into stars
you felt the gravity of temper grace falling into empty space
no one there to catch you in there arms


Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
you build up all the failiures all you've known
remember all the sadness and frustration
and let it go, let it go.

(Multiple Voices)
Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
you build up all the failiures all you've known
remember all the sadness and frustration
and let it go,

let it go
let it go
let it go
let it go

Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
you build up all the failiures all you've known
remember all the sadness and frustration
and let it go, let it go.

Song of the day :: Last Unicorn. Kenny Loggins.

This song was one of my childhood favorites...I would listen to this CD almost every night before I went to bed. I know the music video is real cheezy but I love the beautiful piano and lyrics to this song. Reminds me of when I was a wee lil one...

Song of the day :: Love You Madly. Cake.

This was my song of the day on my sweet hubby Tyler Baird's 24th Birthday on Saturday! Yay I love that man! THis song is rockin so enjoy.

Song of the day :: I Was Broken. Marcus Foster.

Ok. So this song hands down makes my TOP TEN ULTIMATE FAVES EVER IN THE WORLD list. I listened to it today and freaked out because it was so increadibly amazing. It has a little of everything I love in it-the lyrics are a beauty, the slightly raspy musical voice, the excellent use of all sorts of beautiful instruments, and the sound just envelopes you so turn your speakers up and love ittt!
PS this song has not officially come out until the 19th, so I had to make a link to get to it. Its worth going to I PROMISE!

http://video.uk.msn.com/watch/video/msn-exclusive-marcus-foster-i-was-broken/2tf5wldt?from=

If this link doesn't work...just copy and paste it. Worth it.

Song of the day :: Have you Ever Really Loved A Woman. Bryan Adams.

This is a fantastic song. Thats all I can say. I like it when they sing the song a little slower on the radio version, but the videos are a lil to risque for me haha, but they sound just as great live...which is even cooler. Enjoy!

To really love a woman
To understand her - you gotta know her deep inside
Hear every thought - see every dream
N' give her wings - when she wants to fly
Then when you find yourself lyin' helpless in her arms
Ya know ya really love a woman

When you love a woman you tell her
that she's really wanted
When you love a woman you tell her that she's the one
Cuz she needs somebody to tell her
that it's gonna last forever
So tell me have you ever really
- really really ever loved a woman?

To really love a woman
Let her hold you -
til ya know how she needs to be touched
You've gotta breathe her - really taste her
Til you can feel her in your blood
N' when you can see your unborn children in her eyes
Ya know ya really love a woman

When you love a woman
you tell her that she's really wanted
When you love a woman you tell her that she's the one
Cuz she needs somebody to tell her
that you'll always be together
So tell me have you ever really -
really really ever loved a woman?

You got to give her some faith - hold her tight
A little tenderness - gotta treat her right
She will be there for you, takin' good care of you
Ya really gotta love your woman...

Song of the day :: Crossfire. Brandon Flowers

I heard this song on the radio again today and decided that I really enjoy turning up the volume in my car when it comes on cause they have such a full sound. The music video is interesting-there is a cool ninja super-babe who saves the day...ha.

Song of the day :: Congratulations. Blue october.

So I have to admit...I have a couple of obsessions and unfortunately I absolutely LOVE the Twilight series...its a bit ridiculous how many times I have read them but there you go. This song makes me think about Jacob at Bella's wedding. Its a sadish song because I think that situations like this song and the one in Twilight happen more often then we all think. But I seriously love this song just cause it has a bittersweet tune. This has nothing to do with my life situation whatsoever, but it is a wonderful song. Happy day to you :)

Song of the day part 2 :: Like Humans Do. David Byrne.

This song goes so perfectly with how I feel sometimes about my house and my feelings haha. We all have to realize that we are not the only ones who aren't perfect out there-we are HUMAN. Enjoy this nice song and don't be self conscious of all the things on your floor or the dishes in the sink :)

For millions of years, In millions of homes
A man loved a woman, A child then was born
It learned how to hurt and it learned how to cry
Like Humans Do

I'm breathing in
I'm breathing out
So slip inside this funky house
Dishes in the sink
The TV's in repair
Don't look at the floor
Don't go up the stairs
I'm achin' and
I'm shakin' and
I'm breakin'
Like Humans Do
I'm achin' and
I'm shakin' and
I'm breakin'
Like Humans Do

I work and I sleep and I dance and I'm dead
I'm eatin, I'm laughin and I'm lovin myself
We're eatin off plates and we kiss with our tongues
Like Humans Do

I'm breathing in
I'm breathing out
So slip inside this funky house
Dishes in the sink
The TV's in repair
Don't look at the floor
Don't go up the stairs
I'm achin' and
I'm shakin' and
I'm breakin'
Like Humans Do
I'm achin' and
I'm shakin' and
I'm breakin'
Like Humans Do

I'm breathing in
I'm breathing out
So slip inside this funky house
Wiggle while you work
Anybody can
The rain is pourin' in on a woman and a man

I'm achin' and
I'm shakin' and
I'm breakin'
Like Humans Do
I'm breathing in
I'm breathing out

Song of the day :: Keep Breathing. Ingrid Michaelson.

I have fallen behind with my sons it appears so I have a couple songs of the day. The first one being Keep Breathing by the beautiful Ingrid. Sometimes life gets so busy and hard and we try to do everything, and other times, all we can do is keep breathing. I have felt that way lately...

The storm is coming but I don't mind
People are dying, I close my blinds

All that I know is I'm breathing now

I want to change the world
Instead I sleep
I want to believe in more than you and me

But all that I know is I'm breathing
All I can do is keep breathing
All we can do is keep breathing now

All that I know is I'm breathing
All I can do is keep breathing.
All we can do is keep breathing

All we can do is keep breathing
All we can do is keep breathing
All we can do is keep breathing
All we can do is keep breathing
All we can do is keep breathing now

Song of the day :: Go. My Favorite Highway .

When I look to the other side
I just can't go just can't go
Two lanes in the checkout line
I just don't know just don't know
Why choose when I can't decide
On my own on my own
It's all designed to keep me here
And if I go then I can't point it out

I can't leave what I left behind
If I just let go just let go
Cuz I believe in what I cannot find
I just don't know just don't know
I can't say cuz I haven't tried
On my own on my own
You promised not to leave me here
Leave me on my own

And if feels like a voice that is within me
And it feels like these eyes are filled with envy
And it feels like it's wrong
But you know a song for tomorrow

You're gone and you're on your own

Why run when I cannot hide
I just can't go just can't go
And if I seem a little preoccupied
I just don't know just don't know
We lost track but I didn't mind
On my own on my own
It's all designed to keep me here
But if I go then I can't point it out

Jumped out at the corner when I had to stop
I jumped out when I might have made a few more blocks
And now I ran until I couldn't see
Everything you try to put in front of me
Chasing everything of what's left of this
And keeping my heart inside of my chest
I'm not really kneeling
I'm not really healing
I'm just in between

Cuz I lie to myself
That I need what I don't
When I wish that you'd call
And I'd run back home
But I hate when I heal
Then I leave when I won't
Cuz I bet that I'll find something else.

(Oh)
You're on your own
On your own
On your own

Song of the day :: Always. Switchfoot.

This is the star, this is your heart
This is the day you were born
This is the sun, these are your lungs
This is the day you were born

And I am always, always, always yours
And I am always, always, always yours

These are the scars deep in your heart
This is the place you were born
And this is the hole where most of your soul comes ripping out
From the places you've been torn

And it is always, always, always yours
And I am always, I'm always, I'm always yours

Hallelujah, I'm caving in
Hallelujah, I'm in love again
Hallelujah, I'm a wretched man
Hallelujah, every breath is a second chance, yeah

And it is always, always, always yours
And I am always, I'm always, always yours
Always, always, I'm always yours, I'm yours
Always, always, I am always yours

Song of the day :: Perfect. P!nk.

Pretty much I think that everyone has felt like they are a failure or can't be good enough for anyone and its so not true. I find myself sometimes thinking this song in my head when I see the ones I love thinking they aren't worth it. YOU ARE PERFECT TO ME :)

Song of the day 2:: Bring Him Home - Valjean Quartet [Les Misérables in concert, the 25th an...

My second song of the day is very different from the first-It is from the beautiful broadway Les Miserables-I have not yet had a chance to see it but one day I will. This song was sung for the 25th anniversary of the broadway musical and all four of the actors for Jean Valjean sing "Bring Him Home" together. Needless to say it is a breath-taking production. Turn up your speakers and drink it in!

God on high
Hear my prayer
In my need
You have always been there

He is young
He's afraid
Let him rest
Heaven blessed.
Bring him home
Bring him home
Bring him home.

He's like the son I might have known
If God had granted me a son.
The summers die
One by one
How soon they fly
On and on
And I am old
And will be gone.

Bring him peace
Bring him joy
He is young
He is only a boy

You can take
You can give
Let him be
Let him live
If I die, let me die
Let him live
Bring him home
Bring him home
Bring him home.

Song of the day 1:: You and Me. Dave Matthews Band.

So I haven't posted in like a weeek. So I will have a couple songs of the day today because....I have had all the songs of the day for the past couple days stuck in my head just dying to be shared! I absolutely love this song! It's different and fun and I love the lyrics. Take a look at the words. Love love it.

Wanna pack your bags
Something small
Take what you need and we disappear
without a trace we'll be gone, gone
moon and the stars will follow the car
And then when we get to the ocean
Gonna take a boat to the end of the world
all the way to the end of the world

Oh when the kids are old enough
we gon' teach them to fly

You and me together
we could do anything, baby
you and me together yes, yes
you and me together
we could do anything, baby
you and me together yes, yes

you and i were not tied to the ground
not falling but rising like rolling around
eyes closed above the rooftops
eyes closed were gonna spin through the stars
Our arms wide as the sky we gon ride the blue
all the way to the end of the world
to the end of the world

Oh when the kids are old enough
we gon teach them to fly

You and me together
we could do anything, baby
you and me together yes, yes
you and me together
we could do anything, baby
you and me together yes, yes

we can always look back on what we did
always memory of you and me baby
right now its you and me forever girl
you know we could do better than
anything that we did
you know that you and me
we could do anything

you and me together
we could do anything, baby
you and me together yes,yes
the two of us together
we could do anything baby
you and me together yes, yes
two of us together, yes, yes
two of us together
we could do anything baby

Song of the day :: Lost. Michael Bublé.

Everyone has or will go through some kind of heart ache and there are so many times where it would be so easy to just give up. Sometimes we feel all alone in a world that is so cruel and mean at times and everything is against you. But like this song, You are not lost! Things will look up and you are not alone.

I can't believe it's over
I watched the whole thing fall
And I never saw the writing that was on the wall
If I'd only knew
The days were slipping past
That the good things never last
That you were crying

Summer turned to winter
And the snow it turned to rain
And the rain turned into tears upon your face
I hardly recognized the girl you are today
And god I hope it's not too late
It's not too late
'Cause you are not alone
I'm always there with you
And we'll get lost together
Till the light comes pouring through
'Cause when you feel like you're done
And the darkness has won
Babe, you're not lost
When your worlds crashing down
And you can't bear the thought
I said, babe, you're not lost

Life can show no mercy
It can tear your soul apart
It can make you feel like you've gone crazy
But you're not
Things have seem to changed
There's one thing that's still the same
In my heart you have remained
And we can fly fly fly away

'Cause you are not alone
And I am there with you
And we'll get lost together
Till the light comes pouring through
'Cause when you feel like you're done
And the darkness has won
Babe, you're not lost
When the worlds crashing down
And you can not bear the cross
I said, baby, you're not lost
I said, baby, you're not lost
I said, baby, you're not lost
I said, baby, you're not lost

Song of the day :: 'Til Kingdom Come. Coldplay.

This song is so wonderful. I have always loved the lyrics and the meaning of the song to me hits home for me. It makes me think of things like the eternities I will get to spend with my lover. Its a very beautiful song and of course it is by a fantastic band-COLDPLAYYY!

Song of the day :: Parachute. Ingrid Michaelson.

Well I actually had a different song in mind for my song of the day today, but I saw this video while I was listening to another, clicked it and HOLY SMOKES, FELL IN LOVE WITH IT! (yes I love finding new songs to be obsessed over.) She has a new music video for this song that you can look up, but I liked this one better cause the sound was better and it wasn't as weird...so turn up the speakers and let the sound surround....

I don't tell anyone about the way you hold my hand
I don't tell anyone about the things that we have planned
I won't tell anybody, won't tell anybody
They wanna push me down, they wanna see you fall down

Won't tell anybody that you turn the world around
I won't tell anyone that your voice is my favorite sound
I won't tell anybody, won't tell anybody
They wanna see us fall, they wanna see us fall down

I don't need a parachute baby if I've got you
Baby, if I've got you I don't need a parachute
You're gonna catch me, you're gonna catch if I fall
(down, down, down)

Don't believe the things you tell yourself so late at night
You are your own worst enemy, you'll never win the fight
Just hold on to me, I'll hold onto you
It's you and me up against the world, it's you and me

I don't believe anything, don't trust anyone anymore
But I believe you when you say we're never gonna fall
Hand behind my neck, arm around my waist
Never let me hit the ground, you'll never let me crash down

I don't need a parachute baby if I've got you
Baby, if I've got you I don't need a parachute
You're gonna catch me, you're gonna catch if I fall
(down, down, down)

I won't fall out of love
I won't fall out of...
I'll fall into you

I don't need a parachute baby if I've got you
Baby, if I've got you I don't need a parachute
You're gonna catch me, you're gonna catch if I fall
(down, down, down)

I don't need a parachute baby if I've got you
Baby, if I've got you I don't need a parachute
You're gonna catch me, you're gonna catch if I fall down

Song of the day :: Slip Slidin' Away. Paul Simon.

I LOVE THIS SONG. I will be ever grateful my parents gave me this old goodie Paul Simon CD that is fantastic. Truly a gifted singer. PLease listen to the lyrics-they are beautiful.

Slip slidin' away
Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip slidin' away

I know a man
He came from my home town
He wore his passion for his woman
Like a thorny crown
He said Dolores
I live in fear
My love for you's so overpowering
I'm afraid that I will disappear

Slip slidin' away
Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip slidin' away

I know a woman
Became a wife
These are the very words she uses
To describe her life
She said a good day
Ain't got no rain
She said a bad day's when I lie in bed
And think of things that might have been

Slip slidin' away
Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip slidin' away

And I know a fa-ther
Who had a son
He longed to tell him all the reasons
For the things he'd done
He came a long way
Just to explain
He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping
Then he turned around and headed home again

Slip slidin' away
Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip slidin' away

God only knows
God makes his plan
The information's unavailable
To the mortal man
We're working our jobs
Collect our pay
Believe we're gliding down the highway
When in fact we're slip slidin' away

Slip slidin' away
Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip slidin' away

Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip slidin' away
Mmm...

Song of the day :: Paperweight. Joshua Radin/Schuyler Fisk.

This one is a beautyyy! I haven't seen this movie, but I love this song. Joshua and Schuyler are the perfect voices to sing together.

Song of the day :: 5 Years Time. Noah and the Whale.

Everything about this song and music video makes me smile haha. Its a catchy tune and just a cute song.

Oh, well in 5 years time
We could be walking around a zoo
With the sun shining down over me and you
And there will be love in the bodies of the elephants too
And I'll put my hands over your eyes but you'll peek through

And there will be sun sun sun all over our bodies
And sun sun sun all down our necks
And there will be sun sun sun all over our faces
And sun sun sun so what the heck

'Cos I'll be laughing at all your silly little jokes
And we'll be laughing about how we used to smoke
All those stupid little cigarettes and drink stupid wine
'Cos it's what we needed to have a good time

And there will be sun sun sun all over our bodies
And sun sun sun all down our necks
And there will be sun sun sun all over our faces
And sun sun sun so what the heck

Oh, well I'll look at you and say it's the happiest I've ever been
And I'll say I no longer feel, I have to be James Dean
And she'll say yeah well I feel oh pretty happy too
And I'm always pretty happy when I'm just kicking back with you

And it'll be love love love all through our bodies
And it'll be love love love all through our minds
And it'll be love love love all over her face
And love love love all over mine

And though really all these moments are just in my head
I'll be thinking about them as I'm lying in bed
And I know that really it might not even come true
But in my mind I'm having a pretty good time with you

Oh in 5 years time I might not know you
In 5 years time we might not speak
In 5 years time we might not get along
In 5 years time you might just prove me wrong

Oh there will be love love love wherever you go

Song of the day :: One Headlight. The Wallflowers.

I have always loved this song. I had it stuck in my head all day so it became my song of the day. Yay.

So long ago, I don't remember when
That's when they say I lost my only friend
Well they said she died easy of a broken heart disease
As I listened through the cemetery trees

I seen the sun comin' up at the funeral at dawn
The long broken arm of human law
Now it always seemed such a waste
She always had a pretty face
So I wondered how she hung around this place

[сhorus:]
Hey, come on try a little
Nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than
In the middle
But me & Cinderella
We put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight

She said it's cold
It feels like Independence Day
And I can't break away from this parade
But there's got to be an opening
Somewhere here in front of me
Through this maze of ugliness and greed
And I seen the sun up ahead
At the county line bridge
Sayin' all there's good and nothingness is dead
We'll run until she's out of breath
She ran until there's nothin' left
She hit the end-it's just her window ledge

[chorus]

Well this place is old
It feels just like a beat up truck
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn
Well it smells of cheap wine & cigarettes
This place is always such a mess
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn
I'm so alone, and I feel just like somebody else
Man, I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same
But somewhere here in between the city walls of dyin' dreams
I think her death it must be killin' me

Song of the day :: Happy. Never Shout Never.

This is a nice light-hearted ditty. Cute words and a catchy tune. It was an insta-love on this one. Hope you enjoy.

Song of the day :: How the Day Sounds. Greg Laswell.

As I was listening to my favorite music site, Pandora, this wonderful melody played and became an instant favorite of mine. Pretty much any song that talks about love becomes one of my favorites...what can I say-I am a sap :). The music video is pretty funny but not really relivant to why I like this song...Yay for new songs!

Oh who would have every known this?
Could be this easy
I was a long, long way off
Then just like that it was over
Everything I knew of love
I was a long, long way off

And I think I like how the day sounds
Like how the day sounds through this new song

Thank you for opening the window
The sky is clear as my mind is now
I was a long, long way off
Join me in wecoming the sun in
It's much brighter than the night I hid in
I was a long, long way off

And I think I like how the day sounds

From a long way down.

Yeah, it's well worth the time that its taken to get here now

Bada dum...

So go ahead and bang a gong
Nothing can drown out the sound and the whisper of my love

And I think I like how the day sounds
Like how the day sounds through this new song

And the blinds have all been drawn
I know where I belong, where I belong,
Where I belong
And the blinds have all been drawn
I know where I belong
Where I belong

And I think I like how the day sounds
Like how the day sounds through this new song

Oh wont you sing along
Oh, my love won't you sing along

Song of the day :: Good Life. One Republic.

I consider myself as living the "good life." I have never traveled to far away magical lands like it mentions in this song, but I have a wonderful life living here with my sweet husband, my little baby, my good friends, and my loving family. I really don't have anything to complain about...so this song has a couple of relevant lines in this song that I relate to. I have bolded some of my favorite parts of the song. Its a nice song :)

Woke up in London yesterday

Found myself in the city near Piccadilly
Don't really know how I got here
I got some pictures on my phone

New names and numbers that I don't know
Address to places like Abbey Road
Day turns to night, night turns to whatever we want
We're young enough to say

[Chorus]

Oh this has gotta be the good life
This has gotta be the good life
This could really be a good life, good life

Say oh, got this feeling that you can't fight
Like this city is on fire tonight
This could really be a good life
A good, good life

To my friends in New York, I say hello
My friends in L.A. they don't know
Where I've been for the past few years or so
Paris to China to Col-or-ado

Sometimes there's airplanes I can' t jump out
Sometimes there's crap that don't work now
We are full of stories but please tell me-e-e-e
What there is to complain about

When you're happy like a fool
Let it take you over
When everything is out
You gotta take it in

Hopelessly
I feel like there might be something that I'll miss
Hopelessly
I feel like the window closes oh so quick
Hopelessly
I'm taking a mental picture of you now
'Cuz hopelessly
The hope is we have so much to feel good about

Song of the day :: Human. The Killers.

If you first just listen to this song, it is just a nice soft rock and fun to dance around the house to...sometimes I like to look at the lyrics and make up my own interpretation of what the artist is trying to say their music. In this song I think he is saying that he has to let go of everything and figure out for himself who he is...letting go of all previous beliefs and things he has been told and learn for himself what he is supposed to be. That is what I think. happy listening!

I did my best to notice
When the call came down the line
Up to the platform of surrender
I was brought but I was kind

And sometimes I get nervous
When I see an open door
Close your eyes, clear your heart
Cut the cord

Are we human or are we dancers?
My sign is vital, my hands are cold
And I'm on my knees looking for the answer
Are we human or are we dancers?

Pay my respects to grace and virtue
Send my condolences to good
Give my regards to soul and romance
They always did the best they could

And so long to devotion
You taught me everything I know
Wave goodbye, wish me well
You've gotta let me go

Are we human or are we dancers?
My sign is vital, my hands are cold
And I'm on my knees looking for the answer
Are we human or are we dancers?

Will your system be alright
When you dream of home tonight?
There is no message we're receiving
Let me know, is your heart still beating?

Are we human or are we dancers?
My sign is vital, my hands are cold
And I'm on my knees looking for the answer

You've gotta let me know
Are we human or are we dancers?
My sign is vital, my hands are cold
And I'm on my knees looking for the answer
Are we human or are we dancers?

Are we human or are we dancers?
Are we human or are we dancers?

Song of the day :: Heart of life. John Mayer

This song to me, is about the fact that hard things happen to all of us in this life. But the heart of life is good. We are meant to be happy. So think of how much we are blessed and enjoy this excellent song.

I hate to see you cry
Lying there in that position
There's things you need to hear
So turn off your tears
And listen

Pain throws your heart to the ground
Love turns the whole thing around
No it won't all go the way it should
But I know the heart of life is good

You know, it's nothing new
Bad news never had good timing
Then, circle of your friends
Will defend the silver lining

Pain throws your heart to the ground
Love turns the whole thing around
No it won't all go the way it should
But I know the heart of life is good

Pain throws your heart to the ground
Love turns the whole thing around
Fear is a friend who's misunderstood
But I know the heart of life is good
I know it's good

Song of the day :: Yellow. Coldplay.

I LOVE COLDPLAY. I know this music video is...well he is sopping wet, looks like he took one drink to many, and is singing at you up close...but regardless the song is what is important here right? ha. I have always loved this song even though I never really could understand why it was all "yellow." Maybe it is referring to something I don't understand or know of...who knows. The song is great and I hope you enjoy it :)

Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And everything you do,
Yeah they were all yellow,

I came along
I wrote a song for you
And all the things you do
And it was called yellow

So then I took my turn
Oh all the things I've done
And it was all yellow

Your skin
Oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
D'you know you know I love you so
You know I love you so

I swam across
I jumped across for you
Oh all the things you do
Cause you were all yellow

I drew a line
I drew a line for you
Oh what a thing to do
And it was all yellow

Your skin
Oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
D'you know for you i bleed myself dry
For you i bleed myself dry

Its true look how they shine for you
look how they shine for you
look how they shine for you
look how they shine for you
look how they shine for you
look how they shine
look at the stars look how they shine for you

Song of the day :: Comes and Goes. Greg Laswell.

I just love this song, and the lyrics, and his voice. Listen to it.

This one's for the lonely
The ones that seek and find
Only to be let down
Time after time

This one's for the torn down
The experts at the fall
Come on friends get up now
You're not alone at all

And this part was for her
This part was for her
This part was for her
Does she remember?

It comes and goes in waves, i....

This one's for the faithless
The ones that are surprised
They are only where they are now
Regardless of their fight

This one's for believing
If only for it's sake
Come on friends get up now
Love is to be made

And this part was for her
This part was for her
This part was for her
Does she remember?

It comes and goes in waves,
I am only led to wonder why
It comes and goes in waves
I am only led to wonder why
Why I try

This is for the ones who stand
For the ones who try again
For the ones who need a hand
For the ones who think they can

It comes and goes in waves,
I am only led to wonder why
It comes and goes in waves
I am only led to wonder why
Why I try

Song of the day :: Flora's Secret

Enya's voice is like the shadow of an angels voice....I love it. You could listen to it quiet in the background or blast it through your speakers and its beautiful. I have always loved this song...sweet love.

Song of the day :: My Body. Young the Giant.

Stop, the train is ridin down to the station
where you lived when we were school kids
Hey, the rails are caught now
And I am falling down fools in a spiral
Round this town of steam

My Body tells me no, but I won't quit
Cause I want more, cause I want more
My Body tells me no, but I won't quit
Cause I want more, cause I want more

Stop the train is riding down to the station where I lived
When I was a cool kid
Hey, is it my fault that the fallen embers burn down in a spiral
Round your crown of thieves

My Body tells me no, but I won't quit
cause I want more, cause I want more
My Body tells me no, but I won't quit
cause I want more, cause I want more
And it rides out of town

Oh, it's my road, it's my road, it's my road
It's my road, it's my road, iIt's my road

And it's my war, It's my war, it's my war
It's my war
His eyes are open
His eyes are open

Oh, cause I want more, I want more
Want more
His eyes are open
His eyes are open

(Hey, hey, hey)

My body tells me no but I won't quit
Cause I want more, cause I want more
My body tells me no but I wont quit
Cause I want more cause I want more
It rides out of town

Song of the day :: Waiting for the End. Linkin Park.

So I just got back from a week-long camping trip...yay! This song of the day I just decided because I heard the song and it has been stuck in my head all day. I also like it because I think that a lot of people are kind of at a stand still like this song is talking about...just waiting for something, whether it be a new beginning or waiting for the end. If you are one of these people, you aren't alone. .

This is not the end
This is not the beginning,
Just a voice like a riot
Rocking every revision
But you listen to the tone
And the violent rhythm
Though the words sound steady
Something empty's within 'em

We say Yeah!
With fists flying up in the air
Like we're holding onto something
That's invisible there,
'Cause we're living at the mercy of
The pain and the fear
Until we dead it, Forget it,
Let it all disappear.

Waiting for the end to come
Wishing I had strength to stand
This is not what I had planned
It's out of my control....

Flying at the speed of light
Thoughts were spinning in my head
So many things were left unsaid
It's hard to let you go...

(Oh!) I know what it takes to move on,
I know how it feels to lie,
All I wanna do
Is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I haven't got

Sitting in an empty room
Trying to forget the past
This was never meant to last,
I wish it wasn't so...

(Oh!) I know what it takes to move on,

I know how it feels to lie,
All I wanna do
Is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I haven't got

What was left when that fire was gone?
I thought it felt right but that right was wrong
All caught up in the eye of the storm
And trying to figure out what it's like moving on
And i don't even know what kind of things I've said
My mouth kept moving and my mind went dead
So, picking up the pieces, now where to begin?
The hardest part of ending Is starting again!!

All I wanna do
Is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what i haven't got...

This is not the end
This is not the beginning,
Just a voice like a riot
Rocking every revision
But you listen to the tone
And the violet rhythm
Though the words sound steady
Something empty's within 'em
(Holding on to what i haven't got)

We say Yeah!
With fists flying up in the air
Like we're holding onto something
That's invisible there,
'Cause we're living at the mercy of
The pain and the fear
Until we dead it, Forget it,
Let it all disappear
(Holding on to what i haven't got!)
