song of the moment - song to say goodbye

song of the moment
song to say goodbye
placebo

you are one of god's mistakes,

you crying, tragic waste of skin,

i'm well aware of how it aches,

and you still won't let me in.

now i'm breaking down your door,

to try and save your swollen face,

though i don't like you anymore,

you lying, trying waste of space..

before our innocence was lost,

you were always one of those,

blessed with lucky sevens,

and the voice that made me cry.

my oh my.

you were mother nature's son,

someone to whom i could relate,

your needle and your damage done,

remains a sordid twist of fate.

now i'm trying to wake you up,

to pull you from the liquid sky,

cuz if i don't we'll both end up,

with just your song to say goodbye.

my oh my.

a song to say goodbye,

a song to say goodbye,

a song to say...

before our innocence was lost,

you were always one of those,

blessed with lucky sevens,

and the voice that made me cry.

it's a song to say goodbye…

The little kid in the video played young Ned in Pushing Daisies.
I miss that show.  It was inspired.

song of the moment - feel it now

song of the moment
feel it now
black rebel motorcycle club

and all my sorrows awaken
and all my fears run down
i turn myself into an angel
i run myself into the ground

i'm on my own i'm sure i'll feel it now
i'm on my own i'm sure i'll know it now

and all the reasons invading
twist and turn my aching soul
i leave myself behind in pieces
i know you'll need them when i'm gone

i'm on my own i'm sure i'll know it now
i'm on my own i'm sure i'll feel it now

i'll never see again
i'll never see again
the worst has come i've fallen in

i'll never see again
i'll never see again
the worst has come i've fallen in

i'm on my own i'm sure i'll feel it now
i'm on my own i'm sure i'll know it now
i'm on my own i'm sure i'll feel it now
i'm on my own i'm sure i'll know it now

There's something about being surrounded by family that has a way of making me feel completely alone.

I really hate Christmas.

song of the moment - pain on pain

to heal yourself

and heal yourself

the touch of a hand

shame on pain
took the last breath away

song of the moment - low is a height

song of the moment
low is a height
great northern



drink to the sun
we write to millions
you kill everyone
around you
save yourself from
from the ground you break
and the lives you take

i lock the door
spinning the time
in a room
still like the sun around you
don't like the space of
all our space of
and you've just become a word

song of the moment - soon we'll be found

song of the moment
soon we'll be found
sia

(yes, it's a repeat - you have a problem with that?)

come along it is the break of day
surely now, you'll have some things to say
it's not the time for telling tales on me

so come along, it wont be long
'til we return happy
shut your eyes, there are no lies
in this world we call sleep
let's desert this day of hurt
tomorrow we'll be free

let's not fight i'm tired can't we just sleep tonight
don’t turn away it's just there's nothing left here to say
turn around i know we're lost but soon we'll be found

well it's been rough but we'll be just fine
work it out yeah we'll survive
you mustn't let a few bad times dictate

so come along, it wont be long
'til we return happy
shut your eyes, there are no lies
in this world we call sleep
let's desert this day of work
tomorrow we'll be free

let's not fight i'm tired can't we just sleep tonight
turn away it's just there's nothing left here to say
turn around i know we're lost but soon we'll be found

oh…. yeah…. (etc)

let's not fight i'm tired can't we just sleep tonight
don’t turn away it's just there's nothing left here to say
turn around i know we're lost but soon we'll be found

let's not fight i'm tired can't we just sleep tonight
don’t turn away it's just there's nothing left here to say
turn around i know we're lost but soon we'll be found

I miss my sister.

song of the moment - fireflies

song of the moment
fireflies
owl city

you would not believe your eyes
if ten million fireflies
lit up the world as i fell asleep

'cause they'd fill the open air
and leave teardrops everywhere
you'd think me rude
but i would just stand and stare

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

'cause i'd get a thousand hugs
from ten thousand lightning bugs
as they tried to teach me how to dance

a foxtrot above my head
a sock hop beneath my bed
a disco ball is just hanging by a thread

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
when i fall asleep

leave my door open just a crack
(please take me away from here)
'cause i feel like such an insomniac
(please take me away from here)
why do i tire of counting sheep
(please take me away from here)
when i'm far too tired to fall asleep

to ten million fireflies
i'm weird 'cause i hate goodbyes
i got misty eyes as they said farewell

but i'll know where several are
if my dreams get real bizarre
'cause i saved a few and i keep them in a jar

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
when i fall asleep

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
when i fall asleep

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
because my dreams are bursting at the seams

I can't quite figure why I didn't post this song sooner, cuz I love it, and the music video is awesome.  The only thing I can think, when I first came across it, it must not have been an embeddable video.

Let's go with that.

song of the moment - fountain

sara lov

fountain 
fountain
we are the same

fountain 
fountain
we are the same
you with the water
me with the pain
turning it over
again and again 

don’t you wish you could throw your pennies back at them
don’t you wish you could throw your pennies back at them 

back at them, at them

fountain
fountain
we are the same
fountain
fountain
we are the same
all that anyone ever has for you
are the things you reflect back to them 

don’t you wish you could throw your pennies back at them
don’t you wish you could throw your pennies back at them 

back at them, at them

fountain 
fountain
we are the same
fountain
fountain
we are the same
it is so beautiful how you remain

jesus talks in red
to separate the things he said
every night i read
and memorized the famous parts
just before i'd go to bed

all the rest appears in black
as the authors recalled
the best they could while looking back
so careful not to confuse
the difference between the two
don't speak for him
he won't speak for you

you can try, but you won't pin this on me
you were broken before we came to be
don't you dare claim to know what he wants for you

you stopped by to talk
suggesting that we take a walk
then you delivered the news
the reasons that you gave amazed
i wished they'd heard the quotes you'd used

after all the time we spent
dodging pressure to bend
how could this be heaven sent?
and the church we passed by
for three years i tried
but couldn't bear to set foot inside

you can try, but you won't pin this on me
you were broken before we came to be
don't you dare claim to know what he wants for you

you can try, but you won't pin this on me
you were broken before we came to be
don't you dare claim to know what he wants for you

ten years on
i think the anger's finally gone
since then i've learned
to separate the things he said
from all the phrases you have turned

now it's clear that we just weren't meant to be
but not for reasons you gave me
now it's clear that we just weren't meant to be
but not for reasons you gave me

i posted this a while back, and deleted it
now i can't remember why i deleted it, cuz it's a kickass song
(i was probably mad at somebody who said he liked it - yes, i am that petty and juvenile)

song of the moment - anchor

song of the moment

anchor

mindy gledhill

when all the world is spinning around 
like a red balloon way up in the clouds 
and my feet will not stay on the ground
you anchor me back down

i am nearly world renowned 
as a restless soul who always skips town 
but i look for you to come around
and anchor me back down

there are those who think that i’m strange
they would box me up and tell me to change
but you hold me close and softly say
that you wouldn’t have me any other way

when people pin me as a clown
you behave as though i’m wearing a crown
when i’m lost i feel so very found
when you anchor me back down

there are those who think that i’m strange
they would box me up and tell me to change
but you hold me close and softly say
that you wouldn’t have me any other way

when all the world is spinning around
like a red balloon way up in the clouds 
and my feet will not stay on the ground
you anchor me back down
