lights out for this lightweight. [07 Nov 2006|09:08am]
You go and I’ll stay
Why would I put clothes on to see
Some girl you like more than me?
But you should go and I’ll be okay
I promised myself
I’d finally start that book I’ve been meaning to read
About the French Revolution
You go and I’ll stay
Why would I leave the house to see
Some girl who sings better than me?
When you come home to me
Smelling like booze, humming her tunes
I’m rolling over & it’s lights out for this lightweight
Lights out for this lightweight
Lights out for this lightweight
Lights out for this lightweight

spent on rainy days. [11 Aug 2006|01:59pm]
[ music | bright eyes. ]

I wish I saved up for rainy days cause they're the hardest to be dry
I got no self control
I'm always begging into telephones
I bought a little from my brother's friend, well, just to get me by
I don't trust his cut
The effect is never as high as the mark-up
I think I'll print it in the personals that I'm looking for a match
Someone to light me up,
someone to burn the proof of the things that I've done
Each day there are hours I skip like a stone
I just crawl in a bag
I'm gonna live my life like somebody's shadow

I know I'm lazy with the little things,
I mean I never held a door
But I still loved you more than anyone since or before
You are always saying that I owe you one, well, let's consolidate this debt
Get on a payment plan, I'll pay you compliments, you can still treat me bad
But now it's easy, getting easier, to leave you and this town behind
I'll do some traveling
Once I'm gone tell all our friends you got even
I'm held like an object and then set aside
And I'm back on the shelf, I'm locked in the drawer
I'm mint in the box, but you would still sell me for cost, wouldn't you?

I'll be anything... the cord of a parachute... the blanket on top of you...
The window you are looking through... the cord of a parachute

goodddd songggg =] [13 Jul 2006|01:28pm]
[ music | staind | right here ]

I know I've been mistaken,
but just give me a break and see the changes that I've made.
I've got some imperfections,
But how can you collect them all
And throw them in my face? 

But you always find a way to keep me right here waiting
You always find the words to say to keep me right here waiting
And if you chose to walk away I'd still be right here waiting
Searching for the things to say to keep you right here waiting

I hope you're not intending
To be so condescending,
it's as much as I can take.
And you're so independent, you just refuse to bend
So I keep bending 'till I break

But you always find a way to keep me right here waiting
You always find the words to say to keep me right here waiting
And if you chose to walk away I'd still be right here waiting
Searching for the things to say to keep you right here waiting

I've made a commitment, I'm willing to bleed for you
I needed fulfillment
I found what I need in you

Why can't you just forgive me?
I don't want to relive all the mistakes I've made along the way...

But I always find a way to keep you right here waiting
I always find the words to say to keep you right here waiting

But you always find a way to keep me right here waiting
You always find the words to say to keep me right here waiting
And if I chose to walk away, would you be right here waiting?

Searching for the things to say to keep me right here

[ mood | depressed ]

But you but you, you write such pretty words
But life's no story book
Love's an excuse to get hurt & to hurt
"Do you like to hurt?"
"I do! I do!"
"Then hurt me."

love song for no one. [28 Jun 2006|11:34am]
[ mood | awake ]
[ music | john mayer. ]

Staying home alone on a Friday
Flat on the floor looking back
On old love
Or lack thereof
After all the crushes are faded
And all my wishful thinking was wrong
I'm jaded
I hate it

I'm tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
So tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
Get here

Searching all my days just to find you
I'm not sure who I'm looking for
I'll know it
When I see you
Until then, I'll hide in my bedroom
Staying up all night just to write
A love song for no one

I'm tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
So tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here

I could have met you in a sandbox
I could have passed you on the sidewalk
Could I have missed my chance
And watched you walk away?
Oh no way

I could have met you in a sandbox
I could have passed you on the sidewalk
Could I have missed my chance
And watched you walk away?

I'm tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
I'm so tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here(1st time Oh, yeah)
You'll be so good
You'll be so good for me

these nights don't mean a thing with empty hearts. [25 Jun 2006|06:09pm]
[ mood | bored ]
[ music | bright eyes ]

here sits the greatest liar, biting at his kneecaps, because he can't control himself.

they all want to feel that broken, they stand around him staring, at his obvious regret.

bored hope, wont make a difference, to someone as empty as that.

this is the sound we make, to fill this dead space.
from far away, i'm on the telephone, you say its not enough, it doesn't fill enough, ...

i'm crumbling alone till i get drunk, then morning that will pass, and i'll be just as lonely, twice as boring... no

but your not here when i get home, remembering... i kissed your lips, they taste just like summer.
"i think there's a word for this"

"touch!"

nothing ever scrapes these broken nerves, so i don't know what you did to touch them.
i think about you when i am alone at night.

you're all i really need if i could just be near you, stand next to you, now.

padriac my prince. my fav. song =] [23 Jun 2006|06:40pm]
[ mood | blah ]
[ music | bright eyes. ]

i had a brother once
he drowned in a bathtub before he had ever learned how to talk
and i don't know what his name was but my mother does
i heard her say it once, padriac my prince i have all but died from the
sheer weight of my shame.
you cried but no one came & the water filled your
tiny lungs.
appear, my dear, and cry for me. it was six years ago today that
we laid you in your grave, your sweet young skin was shining then too.

and so tonight to celebrate i will poison myself.
another coughing, shaking fit in a bathroom that is spinning.

so i close the door and rest my head on the tile floor,
sickness and sleep turning me cold.
i am still not sure, is there some better place i could be heading towards?
where the selfishly sick & self absorbed are welcome.

i saw the future once.
i was drunk in a phone booth.
my eyes were wet and red but i could not tell what was said
and through the screams of the traffic voices carried saying
i am sorry
on a day so gray its black inside
watching churches on tv
in a coma you don't dream you just hope that someone sits with you
babies turn blue when they are ignored like the sky on summer days
before you turn and walk away it has changed you

so tonight to compensate i will poison myself
another coughing, shaking fit in a bathroom that is spinning.

lyrics of the day. [07 May 2006|06:26am]
[ mood | crushed ]
[ music | nickelback ]

It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
for handing you a heart worth breaking

and I've been wrong, i've been down,
been to the bottom of every bottle

these five words in my head
scream "are we having fun yet?"

make damn sure. [13 Apr 2006|03:26pm]
[ mood | blah ]
[ music | taking back sunday ]

You've got this new head filled up with smoke
I've got my veins all tangled close
To the jukebox bars you frequent
The safest place to hide
A long night spent with your most obvious weakness
You start shaking at the thought you are everything I want
'Cause you are everything I'm not

And we lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close (How close is close enough?)
We lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close

I just wanna bring you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
I just wanna bring you down so badly
In the worst way

My inarticulate store bought hangover hobby kit
In time, it says, "You, oh, you are so cool."
It says, "The shade across the bed, you are red, violent red."
You hollow out my hungry eyes
You hollow out my hungry eyes

And we lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close (How close is close enough?)
We lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close

I just wanna bring you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
Well I just wanna bring you down so badly
In the worst way

I just wanna bring you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
I just wanna bring you down so badly
In the worst way (worst way)

I'm gonna make damn sure that you can't ever leave
No, you won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far from me
I'll make damn sure that you can't ever leave
No, you won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far...

I just wanna bring you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
Well I just wanna bring you down so badly
In the worst way (worst way)

I'm gonna make damn sure
I just wanna bring you down so badly
I just wanna bring you down so badly (damn sure)
In the worst way (worst way)

I want love, just a different kind
I want a love wont bring me down
wont brick me up, wont fence me in
i want a love that dont mean a thing

So bring it on
Ive beeen bruised
Dont give me love thats clean and smooth
Im ready for the rougher stuff
No sweet romance, Ive had enough

[ music | dido ]

And when we meet
Which I'm sure we will
All that was there
Will be there still
I'll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I've moved on....

in transit (for you). [08 Apr 2006|10:05pm]
[ mood | bored ]
[ music | matchbook romance ]

Dream baby for me
I'll be waiting here for you
Pack your things, fly to me
Scatter me across the sky
I'll shine all night
And just like a star
I'll fall for you

Baby if you want me to
I'd do anything for you
Just say the words and I'd give you the world
Yeah, but that's not good enough

Starlit sea will be our dance floor
And birds will sing our song
And your scars, your scars will heal
For You

Baby if you want me to
I'd do anything for you
And just say the words, and I'd give you the world
Yeah, but that's not good enough

And Baby if you wanted me to, why not say so
Let me go cause I cant shine bright enough for you

I shine for you

I fall
Dream baby for me
I'll be waiting here for you

it's been a long day living with this. [02 Apr 2006|12:29pm]
[ mood | bouncy ]
[ music | alkaline trio ]

It's been a long day living with this
It's been a long time since I felt so sick
I took a long walk straight back home
I could've walked back to San Francisco
I used to long for time alone
I used to long for a place of my own
now I'm losing faith in everything
I'm lost, so lost, i'm lost at sea, you'll see

I used to long for broken bones
I used to long for a casket to call my own
I never had a problem facing fear
but I'm done, over and out my dear and

Oh mercy me
God bless catastrophe
There's no way in hell
We'll ever live to see through this so
Drive yourself insane tonight
It's not that far away and I just
filled up your tank earlier today
(Yeah!)

It's been a long day living with this
It's been a long time since I felt so sick
I took a long walk straight back home
I could've walked back to Chicago
I used to long for time alone
I used to long for a place of my own
and I've lost faith in everything
I'm lost, so lost, I'm lost without you

Oh mercy me
God bless catastrophe
There's no way in hell
We'll ever live to see through this so
Drive yourself insane tonight
It's not that far away and I just
filled up your tank earlier today
(Yeah!)

So drive yourself insane tonight
It's not that far away and I just
filled up your tank earlier today

[ mood | blah ]
[ music | brand new ]

I got a twenty-dollar bill that says no one's ever seen you without makeup.
You're always made up.
And I'm sick of your tattoos,
and the way you always criticize the Smiths... and Morrissey.
And I know that you're a sucker for anything acoustic.
But when I say let's keep in touch,
I really mean I wish that you'd grow up.
This is the first song for your mixtape.
And it's short just like your temper,
but somewhat golden like the afternoons we used to spend before you got too cool...

[ music | brand new ]

Consider this a letter that I never sent
However inconsiderate it seems
Do you still consider me,
consider me the boy you laughed with
or that you learned to live without?...
I suck,
I know I'm late,
I know you waited

You wouldn't get me on the phone
And you couldn't make me not alone


My phone bills stacked up by my bedside,
with your picture, you're looking surprised
You're what makes New England so great
My island nights are all spent dying

Wait for summer to become wrought with lips,
my wishful thinking

You wouldn't get me on the phone
And you couldn't make me not alone

(Yeah you wouldn't get me)
Yeah you're a blue eyed lightning bolt
(You wouldn't get me)
I'm a national phenomenon
(You wouldn't get me on the phone)
Nothing's absolutely definite til it's absolutely, definitely gone (definitely gone)

I never thought this day would end (never thought this day would end)
I never thought tonight could ever be this close to me (close to me)
So let my hands stray past that boundaries of your back
to get you breathing (get you breathing)
And get this started (get this started)

You wouldn't get me on the phone
And you couldn't make me not alone

(Yeah, you wouldn't get me)
Yeah you're a blue eyed lightning bolt
(You wouldn't get me)
I'm a national phenomenon
(You couldn't make me not alone)
Nothing's absolutely definite til it's gone

[ music | so contagious ]

Oh no, this couldn't be more unexpected
And I can tell that I've been moving in so slow
Don't let it throw you off too far
Cause I'll be running right behind you

Could this be out of line? (Could this be out of line?)
To say you're the only one breaking me down like this
You're the only one I would take a shot on
Keep me hanging on so contagiously

Oohhh, when I'm around you I'm predictable
Cause I believe in loving you with first sight
I know it's crazy but I'm hoping to..
To take a hold of you


Could this be out of line? (Could this be out of line?)
To say you're the only one breaking me down like this
You're the only one I would take a shot on
Keep me hanging on so contagiously

Oh you're everything I'm wanting
Come to think of it, I'm aching
On account of my transgression..
Will you welcome this confession?

Could this be out of line? (Could this be out of line?)
To say you're the only one breaking me down like this
You're the only one I would take a shot on
Keep me hanging on so contagiously

Could this be out of line? (Could this be out of line?)

[ mood | confused ]
[ music | spill canvas ]

Fade in, start the scene
Enter beautiful girl
But things are not what they seem
As we stand at the edge of the world

"Excuse me, sir,
But I have plans to die tonight
Oh, and you are directly in my way
And I bet you're gonna say it's not right"
My reply:
"Excuse me, miss
But do you have the slightest clue
Of exactly what you just said to me
And exactly who you're talking to?"

She said, "I don't care, you don't even know me"
I said, "I know but I'd like to change that soon, hopefully"
Yeah, we all flirt with the tiniest notion
Of self conclusion in one simplified motion
You see the trick is that you're never supposed to act on it
No matter how unbearable this misery gets

"You make it sound so easy to be alive
But tell me, how am I supposed to seize this day
When everything inside me has died?"

My reply:
"Trust me, girl
I know your legs are pleading to leap
But I offer you this easy choice-
Instead of dying, living with me"

She said, "Are you crazy? You don't even know me."
I said, "I know, but I'd like to change that soon hopefully"
Yeah, we all flirt with the tiniest notion
Of self conclusion in one simplified motion
You see the trick is that you're never supposed to act on it
No matter how unbearable this misery gets

I would be lying if I said that things would never get rough
And all this cliche motivation, it could never be enough
I could stand here all night trying to convince you
But what good would that do?
My offer stands, and you must choose

"All right, you win, but I only give you one night
To prove yourself to be better than my atttempt at flight
I swear to god if you hurt me I will leap
I will toss myself from these very cliffs
And you'll never see it coming"

"Settle, precious, I know what you're going through
Just ten minutes before you got here I was going to jump too"

Yeah, we all flirt with the tiniest notion
Of self conclusion in one simplified motion
You see the trick is that you're never supposed to act on it
No matter how unbearable this misery gets

[ mood | loved ]
[ music | jamisonparker ]

facing your front door, the one you hide behind
your fight with bedroom eyes, well i proudly wear mine
the entrance that i make will fall so short of grace
a hopeful knock sounds tired before my hopeful plans
you put your hand in mine it fits so perfectly
your whispers between kisses show me all that i could be

please me make me not so crazy
make me fall apart
make me think beautiful unexpected thoughts
i should mean more

i trace every curve
on your precious face
and pray some day youll beg me
to beg you run away


please me make me not so crazy
make me fall apart
make me think beautiful unexpected thoughts
i should mean more

i should mean more
i should mean more
i should mean more
