song of the moment - been a long

song of the moment
been a long day
rosi golan




it's been a long day
and all i've got to say is: make it strong
it's been a long day
and all i've got to say is: i've been wrong
so take a leave of absence
tell me you'll be gone
i don't want to see your face
it's been a long day
and i just want to hide away


it's been a long week
and all the lines come down heavy on me
it's been a long week
i'm finally feeling like it's okay to break
into a thousand pieces
no one can replace
only i can find my way
it's been long day
and i just want to hideaway

it's been a long year
and everyone around me's disappeared
it's been a long year
and all this mess around me's finally cleared
so can i have a moment just to say hello
can you let your anger go?
it's been a long year
and i'm feeling ready to be here...

Change "why do I" to "why did I" and that's where I'm at right now.
Good job, buddy!

No bitterness here.
(I'm totally lying.)

song of the moment - silver lining

song of the moment
silver lining
hilary grist





no manicured landscaping for me
give me a forest with old growth trees
just say no to fancy lattes
five dollar drinks are just so passe
get rid of the car and walk to the store
that's what you legs were really meant for
those new clothes won't make it better
your self-worth doesn't depend on a sweater

what if the silver lining don't come?
what if we're already gold?
what if the silver lining don't come?
what if we're already gold?

you can lie by the pool and i'll lie on the lawn
i've got my favourite beatles song on
fight the urge to check your cell phone
your real friends wait, they're forever not on loan
stay up all night and howl at the moon
got a feeling the sun will be here soon
i don't care much for tomorrow
so eat your heart out, life's a lotto

what if the silver lining don't come?
what if we're already gold?
what if the silver lining don't come?
what if we're already gold?

you don't need that silver lining
you are gold, your sun is shining
you don't need that silver lining
you are gold, your sun is shining down

no, you don't need that silver lining

song of the moment - love the way you lie

song of the moment
love the way you lie
skylar grey




on the first page of our story
the future seemed so bright
then this thing turned out so evil
i don't know why i'm still surprised

even angels have their wicked schemes
and you take that to new extremes
but you'll always be my hero
even though you've lost your mind

just gonna stand there and watch me burn
well that's alright because i like the way it hurts
just gonna stand there and hear me cry
well that's alright because i love the way you lie
i love the way you lie

now there's gravel in our voices
glasses shattered from the fight
in this tug of war you always win
even when i'm right

cause you feed me fables from your hand
with violent words and empty threats
and it's sick that all these battles
are what keeps me satisfied

just gonna stand there and watch me burn
well that's alright because i like the way it hurts
just gonna stand there and hear me cry
well that's alright because i love the way you lie
i love the way you lie

so maybe i'm a masochist
i try to run but i don't wanna ever leave
'til the walls are going up
in smoke with all our memories

just gonna stand there and watch me burn
well that's alright because i like the way it hurts
just gonna stand there and hear me cry
well that's alright because i love the way you lie
i love the way you lie
i love the way you lie
i love the way you lie

I have absolutely no idea why I didn't post this sooner, but you know me (actually, no you don't, and let's keep it that way), I forget about things.
This chick is fucking awesome (true story).

song of the moment - dust

song of the moment
dust
ben west



in quiet sorrow lies
on empty faces

now, of all the times
and of all the places

is this how it goes?
is this how it goes?
i suppose

i waited by the phone to hear another story
then prayed aloud and cried alone, like so many before me

that’s how it goes
that’s how it goes
i suppose

all we are is dust
all we are is dust

but no one understands the weak and heavy hearted
'cause no one sees their end ’till they’re right back where they started

don’t you know?
all we are is dust
after all
all we are is dust

that’s how it goes
that’s how it goes
that’s how it goes

i suppose

song of the moment - ghost in the machine

song of the moment
ghost in the machine
the fire and the sea




you are the ghost in the machine
flickering
and i don't know what it means
you trouble me
behind the smoke and the screen
i'm hiding
i'm hiding

but when the secret's out
and the wounded sing
what's lost is found
you trouble me
and it's troubling

in the light you follow me
shadowing
in the dark you're all i see
surrounding
in a sweet unwanted dream
trouble needs a place to sleep

when the secret's out
and the wounded sing
what's lost is found
you trouble me
and it's troubling

when the secret's out

you are the ghost in the machine
flickering

yeah

when the secret's out
and the wounded sing
what's lost is found
you trouble me
and it's troubling

Redundant, you may say, to post the lyrics right beneath a lyric video.
Yes, it is, I'm so glad you noticed!

song of the moment - hey world (don't give up)

song of the moment
hey world (don't give up)
michael franti





tell me why the grass was greener,
years ago, i swear, it used to grow here,
but no more here

tell me why on this hill,
all the birds they used to come to fly here,
come to die here

tell me why i need to know,
sometimes i wish i didn't have to know
all you've shown me

hey world, what you say,
should i stick around for another day or two?
don't give up on me, i won't give up on you
just believe in me like i believe in you

tell me why, on the corner,
all the kids that used to come to run here,
load their guns here

and tell me why it's okay to kill in the name of the gods we pray,
tell me who said it's okay to die in the name of the lies we say,
tell me why there's child soldiers,
tell me why they close the borders,
tell me how to fight disease, and
tell me now, won't you please

the only thing i want to do
is to be in the arms of someone who
believes in me, like i believe in you

and i say
hey world what you say,
should i stick for around for another day
hey world what you say,
should i stick for around for another day
hey world what you say,
should i stick for around for another day or two?

don't give up on me, i won't give up
and i try, try, try, try,
i try, try, try, try,
for you
don't give up on me
and i cry, cry, cry, cry,
i cry, cry, cry, cry,
for you
just believe in me like i believe

hey world, what you say
hey world, what you say
hey world, what you say
should i stick around for another day
hey world, what you say
should i stick around for another day or two?

don't give up on me, i won't give up on you
just believe in me like i believe in you
don't give up on me

hey world, what you say
hey world, what you say
hey world, what you say

hey world, what you say?


let me know if the links don't work

so i can give a stern talking to, or maybe even fix them
(depends on how much coffee i've had)
