Music has the ability to change my mood.

Exchanging Beauty For The Ashes
Given My Heart To Nothing Real
I've Given My Heart Away
To So Many Things
So Many Times I've Failed
Help Me Stop This Endless Cycle

Remind Me Of How It Can Be

Take Me Back I Surrender All
Without You My Heart Is Broken

I Never Should Have Let You Go
I Never Should Have Let You Slip
Through My Arms

I Never Should Have Let You Go
I Never Should Have Let You Slip
Through My Arms

As The Sun Sets Tonight
I'll Hold You With All That I Am
I Never Should Have Let You Go
Promise Me You'll Stay With Me Forever
Forever

Forgive Me
For Running So Quickly To The Outside


You made a rebel of a careless mans, careful daughter.
You are the best thing that's ever been mine..

I wasn't planning on naming this many but I couldn't leave any of these off this list. These songs got me through some of the hardest times. Breakups, Love, Loneliness, Sadness, Happiness, Inspirations. I recommend them to anyone who needs some guidance in their lives. In a way music saved my life. I am without a doubt, a lyric girl.

"You know, I’ve got this theory; There are two kinds of people in the world. There are lyric people and music people. You know, the lyric people tend to be analytical. They know, all about the meaning of the song. They’re the ones you see with the CD insert out like five minutes after buying it, pouring over the lyrics, interpreting the hell out of everything. Then there’s the music people.. who could care less for the lyrics as long as it's just got like, a good beat and you could dance to it. I don’t know, sometimes it might be easier to be a music girl and not a lyric girl. But since I’m not, let me just say this: Sometimes things find you when you need them to find you. I believe that. And for me, it’s usually song lyrics."

I thought you'd come back at least I prayed
The romance has been dead for years
But i've been too afraid to dig the grave
Relief support never came
Memories carry me through the

Day of when we were kids
And angels came to watch us play
Close my eyes just for tonight
The sun still sleeps and when she wakes
A movie that plays in my mind
Remembering you helps me survive
Every day a re-run of the next
I promised to stay by your side
That all would change I can't complain
Another victim of the game
Maybe love will find us again,

for there is always tomorrow
Sincerely till the end.. close my eyes
Just for tonight the sun still sleeps
And when she wakes
You'll be a memory.

This is truly beautiful. Brought a tear to my eye.
My aunt sent this video to me and I had to share it. Enjoy (:


"This Woman's Work" By: Maxwell

Pray God You Can Cope
I'll Stand Outside
This Woman's Work
This Woman's Worth
Ooh, It's Hard On A Man
Now His Part Is Over
Now Starts The Craft... Of The Father


I Know You've Got A Litte Life In You Yet
I Know You've Got A Lot Of Strength Left
I Know You've Got A Little Life In You Yet
I Know You've Got A Lot Of Strength Left


I Should Be Crying But I Just Can't Let It Show,
I Should Hoping But I Can't Thinking,
All The Things We Should've Said That I Never Said,
All The Things We Should Have Done That We Never Did,
All The Things We Should've Given But I Didn't,
Oh Darling Make It Go,
Make It Go Away...

Give Me These Moments,
Give Them Back To Me,
Give Me A Little Kiss,
Give Me Your...


(I Know You've Got A Little Life In You Yet)
Give Me Your Hand Baby,
(I Know You've Got A Lot Of Strength Left)
Give Me Your Pretty Hand,
(I Know You've Got A Little Life In You Yet)
Ooh My,
(I Know You've Got Alot Of Strength Left)
Your Love Child,
(I Know You've Got A Little Life In You Yet)
Whatever You Need,
(I Know You've Got A Lot Of Strength Left)
Give Me Your Hand,
(I Know You've Got A Little Life In You Yet)
Give Me Your Hand Babe
(I Know You've Got A Lot Of Strength Left)


I Should Be Crying But I Just Can't Let It Show Baby,
I Should Hoping But I Can't Thinking,
Of All The Things We Should've Said That We Never Said,
All The Things We Should Have Done That We Never Did,
All The Things That You Wanted From Me,
All The Things That You Needed From Me,
All The Things We Should Have Given But I Didn't,
Oh Darling Make It Go Away Now,
Just Make It Go Away..

It's in your blood

I can't stay over you.
It seems we drive forever but can never get away from here,
Just one more try.
I'm guessing you are over me, I guess it's bravery.
Because it's black out the window
While you sleep in the passenger seat.
When it's always on your mind but you never speak of the name.
It's in your blood and face and I'm certain it's fame.
So I stayed in the car cause the weather had gotten to me.
But it's really these road signs and freeways that I can't take.
This can't be how you live.
It's like a ball and chain around your waist or this simple state.
Your mind's sick again.
I'm tasting nothing but 4 words,
Please don't leave me.
And it's dark in the winter so your ideas start to sleep.
Well your head is spinning like that carousel, and I know you're a mess after 3 or 4.
But if you make it different then we'll make our way to the surface, and you favorite place.
Where we sit, and we breathe cause I know all the word and I sing you everything.
We're just thoughts so go ahead and speak.
So pick out what you like and call me when you're on the way.
You can spend the night and hope to sleep all day.
For me it's just another week,
Twenty-eight was once how I dreamed.
With your scents on my face I can leave and have you for days.
I still can't see you.
The summer came and we got lost, all of us.
You are nothing without her.
I still won't remember your face,
The features mix too well with this alcohol.
So we cover ourselves in your fear, and stay to watch that moon disappear under these lights.
This city's screaming at me.
And as you breathe the words I better go.
The sun is up and taking back all the shadows that covered this ground,
And our feet, like a blanket of coal.



This song is beautiful. My favorite.
Finally found it online, so it is now on my blog.
I believe it's about a couple who never truly forgot
about one another. In that loving way. Thought I'd share.

Day 13: A band or artist that has gotten you through some tough days.

Taking Back Sunday
I don't know what I would have
done without their music and lyrics.

Today already feels like a good day. Happy it just started. 311 in a few days, pretty excited for that. Good night at work last night. Had fun hanging out with Dave, Mistie, and my baby! (: I am in love with summertime! Thanks for keeping me busy!

Who's to say.

Absolutely my favorite song! Reminds me of Danny :)

Stand up straight
Do your trick
Turn on the stars
Jupiter shines so bright when you're around
They tell us slow down,
We're too young you need to grow
Speed's the key
And they don't know who we are

And who's to say that we're not good enough
And who's to say that this is not our love

Mother don't tell me friends are the ones that I lose
Cause they'd bleed before you
And sometimes family are the ones you'd choose
It's too late now
I hold on to this life I found

And who's to say we won't burn it out
And who's to say we won't sink in doubt
Who's to say that we won't fade to gray
Who are they anyway. Anyway they don't know

And you say we're too young, but maybe you're too old to remember
And I try to pretend but I just feel it when we're together
And if you don't believe me, you never really knew us
You never really knew

You and I, packin' up my room, we feel alright
But we're not welcome, soon
We'll be drivin', cause they don't know who we are
Who's to say we won't stay together
Who's to say we aren't getting stronger
Who's to say I can't live without you
Who are they anyway. Anyway they don't know

And you say we're too young, but maybe you're too old to remember
And I try to pretend, but I just feel it when we're together
Who is to say?
And who is to say?
And who are they anyway?

Stand up boy, I shine so bright when you're around.

23

by Jimmy Eat World, is probably my favorite song.
Reminds me of One Tree Hill.

If you haven't heard this song before, you should.
It is amazing. It makes me think. Makes me remember that part of my life.
It's life, It's real.
