song of the day
travis
pipe dreams

i read it all
every word
and i still don't understand a thing

what had you heard
what had you heard
was it love
was it take another walk in the dark
you'll never learn
i'd pray to god if there was heaven
but heaven seems so very far from here
and it all boils down to the same thing
just a yin and a yang or a couple of pipe dreams
and it all boils down to the same old pain
whether you win or you lose isn't gonna change a single thing
i stood in line and a thought crossed my mind
i had been dreaming but i didn't mind
i signed the line and the woman looked right through me
she didn't smile

i'd pray to god if there was heaven
but heaven seems so very far from here
and it all boils down to the same old thing
just a yin and a yang or a couple of pipe dreams
and it all boils down to the same old pain
whether you win or you lose isn't gonna change a single thing
i'd pray to god if there was heaven
but heaven seems so very far from here

and it all boils down to the same old thing
just a yin and a yang or a couple of pipe dreams
and it all boils down to the same old pain
whether you win or you lose isn't gonna change a single thing
and it all boils down to the same old fear
just a link in a chain
just a puppet on a string
and it all boils down to the same old pain
whether you win or lose
whether you win or lose
whether you win or lose
whether you win or lose

life is like a coin... there are two sides to every story...

obviously its much easier to look only at ur own side of the coin... sometimes it seems impossible to see anything but your side... the flip side hasn't been illuminated and the only thing u have to go on is assumptions and misconceptions...

i am guilty of this... i say this with no shame... i am human... i am not perfect... i am allowed to make mistakes... i learn from my mistakes... it might take me longer than u to get over something or to learn from my mistakes.... but in the end... i will pick myself up, dust myself off, and try again...

as much as anyone else i have been thru my share of rough times... the only lesson that is easily learned is that to be a b*tch is the best way to go thru life... sure u dont have as much fun... but u sure as hell dont get hurt as much... maybe i dont share my past with u as readily as u have with me... but that doesn't mean that i dont have one.... doesn't mean that i just appeared one day at cal poly out of thin air.... i am truly sorry for all of the hardships that u have been thru in your past... i am incredibly sorry for my actions which have in any way mirrored those of ppl in ur past.... there is no excuse, nor will i try to make one... thats an insult to u and ur intelligence.... i hold myself completely responsible for my own actions... but these actions dont come out of no where... there are reasons behind everything i do and have done.... that is my side of the coin... i honestly dont fully understand your side because we haven't really talked recently... that is your side of the coin... i would honestly like to hear your side and come to a fuller understanding of where u are coming from...

i value u as a friend and as a person, but u dont have to believe that... i dont kno if u trust me or even consider me worth listening to... but i would not say this if i didn't mean it.... i do value u... and watching this relationship crumble is horribly painful.... but that is not ur fault, i am not blaming u, nor do i think that by writing this i will wash my hands of my wrongs and it will all be on your shoulders... a friendship takes two... and i am sorry that i have not been a very good friend... honestly i am sorry... u deserve better... much better.... and i am incredibly sorry for my actions...

i hope we can talk and deal with this... if this is the end... i thank u for everything and for this good learning experience... thank u for letting me be ur friend... even if it was only for a short time...

u kno... its funny... how ppl can turn anything into a weapon... probably the strongest weapon is words... sure a gun can shoot u... a knife can stab u.... they can kill u... but they can't break you....

i'm watching u as i'm sure ur watching me... its like looking thru sound proof glass... i can't say anything... and even if i did u couldn't hear me... where there was once something awesome there is now an awkward silence emerged in cold misunderstanding... is this an easy cop out? me saying well i tried its ur fault... no... its not... i dont kno wut went wrong or how things seemed to have crumbled to dust before my eyes... i can honestly say that watching this has broken my heart.... i would like to think that there is remorse on ur side... but i dont kno.... not an "i dont kno" as in i dont think u care... an "i dont kno" as in i dont kno u n e more... and that thought is unbelievably saddening...

friendship is such a fragile thing... a horribly fragile thing... it can bring as much happiness as it can pain... and in an instant a friendship can end... forever irreconcilable.... is this what has happened? has every semblance of friendship been destroyed? if its my fault i'll accept that... i can honestly say i dont believe i have done anything wrong.... but i am also willing to accept the fact that i am not perfect... that i DO make mistakes... that i can mess up... if this is my fault.... i will own up to it and learn from it... i hope that if it turns out to be the opposite... that i can say the same of u....

maybe u believe me... and maybe u dont... i wouldn't say this if i didnt mean it... but if trust has left... then u have every reason to not believe me...

this will definitely leave its mark.... and if this is truly the end... then i thank u for all of the good times, the laughs, the awesome times that we've shared, the support when i needed it, the talks, everything, i wish u nothing but the best in all that u do... and i hope u dont regret our friendship... because i dont

follow the light

nobody really knows where they're supposed to go
hiding behind a wall
afraid that they'll lose it all

but it's alright
just follow the light
and don't be afraid of the dark
in the moonlight you'll dance til you fall
and always be here in my heart

but nobody wants to know
cos nobody even cares
everyone's on the make
yeah and everyone's out for themselves
me i'm on the longest road
where everything's overload
but i've got my heart and soul
so don't throw me overboard

cos it's alright
just follow the light
and don't be afraid of the dark
in the moonlight
you'll dance til you fall and always be here in my heart
cos it's alright
just follow the light
and don't be afraid of the dark
in the moonlight
you'll dance til you fall
and always be here in my heart

cos it's alright alright now
and you're alright
yeah we're alright now

song of the day
good charlotte
east coast anthem

Walking on the streets of D.C.,
On the eastcoast where I live,
You say what's the problem
What's with this angry kid
You don't like the way I walk, Or the way I talk,
Or the way I swing my hands,
You don't like the words I speak, or the thoughts I think
And I know you'll never understand


You know
On the eastcoast, we ride until we die
You know,
Well there's a place inside my mind,
Yeah a place you'll never find,
There's a place inside my mind, Walk this way
There's a place inside my mind,
Yeah a place you'll never find,
There's a place inside my mind, We'll leave today
You know

Wouldn't it be perfect if I could sit with you?
And we would change a thing or 2, we'd change a thing or 2,
We would change the way you think, we would change the way I think,
We would change the way they think but we're not changin' anything


You know
On the eastcoast, we ride until we die
You know,
Well there's a place inside my mind,
Yeah a place you'll never find,

There's a place inside my mind, Walk this way
There's a place inside my mind,
Yeah a place you'll never find,
There's a place inside my mind, We'll leave today
You know

You know
On the eastcoast, we ride until we die
You know,
Well there's a place inside my mind,
Yeah a place you'll never find,
There's a place inside my mind, Walk this way
There's a place inside my mind,
Yeah a place you'll never find,
There's a place inside my mind, We'll leave today

You know

song of the day
eminem
rock bottom


Ah yeah, yo!
This song is dedicated to all the happy people
All the happy people who have real nice lives
And who have no idea whats it like to be broke as fuck

[Verse One:]

I feel like I'm walking a tight rope, without a circus net
I'm popping perkasets, I'm a nervous wreck
I deserve respect; but I work a sweat for this worthless check
Bout to burst this tech, at somebody to reverse this debt
Minimum wage got my adrenaline caged
Full of venom and rage
Especially when I'm engaged
And my daughter's down to her last diaper
That's got my ass hyper
I pray that god answers, maybe I'll ask nicer
Watching ballers while they flossing in their pathfinders
These overnight stars becoming autograph signers
We'll all gone blow up and leave the past behind us
Along with the small fry's and average half pinters
While playa haters turn bitch like they have vaginas
Cause we see them dollar signs and let the cash blind us
Money will brainwash you and leave your ass mindless
Snakes slither in the grass spineless

That's Rock Bottom
When this life makes you mad enough to kill

That's Rock Bottom
When you want something bad enough you'll steal
That's Rock Bottom
When you feel you have had it up to here
Cause you mad enough to scream but you sad enough to tear



That's Rock Bottom
When this life makes you mad enough to kill

That's Rock Bottom
When you want something bad enough you'll steal
That's Rock Bottom
When you feel you have had it up to here
Cause you mad enough to scream but you sad enough to tear

[Verse Two:]

My life is full of empty promises
And broken dreams

I'm hoping things will look up

But there ain't no job openings
I feel discouraged hungry and malnourished
Living in this house with no furnace, unfurnished
And I'm sick of working dead end jobs with lame pay
And I'm tired of being hired and fired the same day
But fuck it, if you know the rules to the game play
Cause when we die we know were all going the same way

It's cool to be player, but it sucks to be the fan
When all you need is bucks to be the man
Plus a luxury sedan
Too comfortable and roomy in a six
They threw me in the mix
With all these gloomy lunatics
Walk around depressed
And smoke a pound of ses a day
And yesterday went by so quick it seems like it was just today
My daughter wants to throw the ball but I'm too stressed to play
Live half my life and throw the rest away

That's Rock Bottom
When this life makes you mad enough to kill

That's Rock Bottom
When you want something bad enough you'll steal
That's Rock Bottom
When you feel you have had it up to here
Cause you mad enough to scream but you sad enough to tear


There's people that love me and people that hate me
But it's the evil that made me this backstabbing, deceitful, and shady

I want the money, the women, the fortune, and the fame
That Means I'll end up burning in hell scorching in flames
That means I'm stealing your checkbook and forging your name
Lifetime bliss for eternal torture and pain
Right now I feel like just hit the rock bottom

I got problems now everybody on my blocks got 'em
I'm screaming like those two cops when 2pac shot 'em
Holding two glocks, I hope your doors got new locks on 'em
My daughter's feet ain't got no shoes or sock's on 'em
And them rings you wearing look like they got a few rocks on 'em
And while you flaunting them I could be taking them to shops to pawn them
I got a couple of rings and a brand new watch you want 'em?
Cause I never went gold of one song
I'm running up on someone's lawns with guns drawn

That's Rock Bottom
When this life makes you mad enough to kill

That's Rock Bottom
When you want something bad enough you'll steal
That's Rock Bottom
When you feel you have had it up to here
Cause you mad enough to scream but you sad enough to tear

I Feel So

Sometimes
I wish I was brave
I wish I was stronger
I wish I could feel no pain
I wish I was young
I wish I was shy
I wish I was honest
I wish I was you not I

'Cause
I feel so mad
I feel so angry
I feel so callused
So lost, confused, again
I feel so cheap
So used,
unfaithful
Let's start over
Let's start over

Sometimes
I wish I was smart
I wish I made cures for
How people are
I wish I had power
I wish I could lead
I wish I could change the world
For you and me

'Cause
I feel so mad
I feel so angry
I feel so callused
So lost, confused, again
I feel so cheap
So used
,
unfaithful
Let's start over
Let's start over

'Cause
I feel so mad
I feel so angry
I feel so callused
So lost, confused, again
I feel so cheap
So used,
unfaithful
Let's start over
Let's start over

I feel so mad
I feel so angry
I feel so callused
So lost, confused, again
I feel so cheap
So used,

song of the day
Limp Bizkit - Break Stuff

Its just one of those days
When you don't wanna wake up
Everything is fucked
Everybody sux

You don't really know why
But want justify
Rippin' someone's head off
No human contact
And if you interact
Your life is on contract
Your best bet is to stay away motherfucker
It's just one of those days!!

[chorus]
Its all about the he says she says bullshit
I think you better quit
Lettin' shit slip
Or you'll be leavin with a fat lip

Its all about the he says she says bullshit
I think you better quit talkin that shit
(Punk, so come and get it)
Its just one of those days
Feelin' like a freight train
First one to complain
Leaves with a blood stain
Damn right I'm a maniac
You better watch your back
Cuz I'm fuckin' up your program

And if your stuck up
You just lucked up
Next in line to get fucked up
Your best bet is to stay away motherfucker
Its just one of those days!!

[chorus]

I feel like shit
My suggestion is to keep your distance cuz right now im dangerous

We've all felt like shit
And been treated like shit
All those motherfuckers that want to step up
I hope you know I pack a chain saw
I'll skin your ass raw
And if my day keeps goin' this way I just might break somethin' tonight...
I hope you know I pack a chain saw
I'll skin your ass raw
And if my day keeps goin' this way I just might break somethin' tonight...
I hope you know I pack a chain saw
I'll skin your ass raw
And if my day keeps goin' this way I just might break your fuckin' face tonight!!
Give me somethin' to break
How bout your fuckin' face
I hope you know I pack a chain saw, what!!...

[Eminem]
Whatever..
Dre, just let it run
Aiyyo turn the beat up a little bit
Aiyyo.. this song is for anyone.. fuck it
Just shut up and listen, aiyyo..

I sit back with this pack of Zig Zags and this bag
of this weed it gives me the shit needed to be
the most meanest MC on this -- on this Earth
And since birth I've been cursed with this curse to just curse
And just blurt this berserk and bizarre shit that works
And it sells and it helps in itself to relieve
all this tension dispensin these sentences
Gettin this stress that's been eatin me recently off of this chest
and I rest again peacefully (peacefully)..
but at least have the decency in you
to leave me alone, when you freaks see me out
in the streets when I'm eatin or feedin my daughter
to not come and speak to me (speak to me)..
I don't know you and no,
I don't owe you a mo-therfuck-in thing
I'm not Mr. N'Sync, I'm not what your friends think
I'm not Mr. Friendly, I can be a prick
if you tempt me my tank is on empty (is on empty)..
No patience is in me and if you offend me
I'm liftin you 10 feet (liftin you 10 feet).. in the air
I don't care who is there and who saw me destroy you

Go call you a lawyer, file you a lawsuit
I'll smile in the courtroom and buy you a wardrobe
I'm tired of all you (of all you)..
I don't mean to be mean but that's all I can be is just me


[Chorus: Eminem]

And I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news everyday I am
Radio won't even play my jam
Cause I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news everyday I am
I don't know it's just the way I am

[Eminem]
Sometimes I just feel like my father, I hate to be bothered
with all of this nonsense
it's constant
And, "Oh, it's his lyrical content -
- the song 'Guilty Conscience' has gotten such rotten responses"
And all of this controversy circles me
and it seems like the media immediately
points a finger at me (finger at me)..
So I point one back at 'em, but not the index or pinkie
or the ring or the thumb, it's the one you put up
when you don't give a fuck, when you won't just put up
with the bullshit they pull, cause they full of shit too

When a dude's gettin bullied and shoots up his school
and they blame it on Marilyn (on Marilyn).. and the heroin
Where were the parents at? And look where it's at
Middle America, now it's a tragedy
Now it's so sad to see, an upper class ci-ty
havin this happenin (this happenin)..
then attack Eminem cause I rap this way (rap this way)..
But I'm glad cause they feed me the fuel that I need for the fire
to burn and it's burnin and I have returned

[Chorus]

And I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news everyday I am
Radio won't even play my jam
Cause I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news everyday I am
I don't know it's just the way I am

[Eminem]
I'm so sick and tired of bein admired
that I wish that I would just die or get fired
and dropped from my label and stop with the fables
I'm not gonna be able to top on "My Name is.."
And pigeon-holed into some pop-py sensation
to cop me rotation at rock'n'roll stations
And I just do not got the patience (got the patience)..
to deal with these cocky caucasians
who think
I'm some wigger who just tries to be black cause I talk
with an accent, and grab on my balls, so they always keep askin
the same fuckin questions (fuckin questions)..
What school did I go to, what hood I grew up in
The why, the who what when, the where, and the how
'til I'm grabbin my hair and I'm tearin it out
cause they drivin me crazy (drivin me crazy).. I can't take it

I'm racin, I'm pacin, I stand and I sit
And I'm thankful for ev-ery fan that I get
But I can't take a SHIT, in the bathroom
without someone standin by it
No I won't sign your autograph
You can call me an asshole I'm glad

And I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news everyday I am
Radio won't even play my jam
Cause I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news everyday I am
I don't know it's just the way I am

A young woman went to her mother and told her about her life, how
things were so hard for her. She didn't know how she was going to
make it, and she wanted to give up. She was tired of fighting and
struggling. It seemed as one of her problems was solved, a new one popped
up.

Her mother took her into her kitchen, where she filled three pots
with water. In the first pot, she placed some carrots, in the second one,
she placed some eggs, and in the third pot, she placed some ground coffee
beans.

She let them sit and boil without saying a word, then in about twenty
minutes, she turned off the burners.
She fished out the carrots and placed them into a bowl. She pulled
the eggs out and placed them into another bowl, then she ladled the
coffee into yet another bowl. Turning to her complaining daughter, she
asked, "Tell me, what do you see?"

"Carrots, eggs, and coffee," her daughter replied.

She brought her daughter closer, and asked her to feel the carrots.
She did, and noticed that they were now soft. She told her daughter to
break an egg, which she did, and after removing the shell, she saw that the
egg was now hard-boiled. Finally, she told her daughter to sip the
coffee. The daughter smiled as she tasted the rich flavor, then
asked, "What's the point, mother?"

Her mother explained that each of the three objects had faced the
very same adversity, -- boiling water, -- but each had reacted
differently:

The carrot went in strong, hard, and unrelenting. However, after
being subjected to the boiling water, it softened, and became weak.

The egg had been fragile. Its thin outer shell had protected its
liquid interior, but after sitting through the boiling water, its insides
became hardened.

The ground coffee beans were unique, however. After they were in the
boiling water, they had changed the water!

"Now, which are you?" she asked her daughter, "when adversity knocks
on your door, how do you respond? Are you a carrot, an egg, or a coffee
bean?"

Think of it like this.......Which am I? Am I a carrot that appears to
be strong, but with pain and adversity, do I wilt, and become soft and
lose my strength?

Am I an egg, that starts out with a malleable heart, but changes with
the heat? Did I have a fluid spirit, but after a death, a breakup, a
financial hardship, or some other trial, have I become hardened and
stiff? Does my shell look the same, but on the inside am I bitter,
and tough, with a stiff spirit and a hardened heart?

Or am I like the coffee bean? The bean actually CHANGES THE WATER!!

The very circumstance that brings the pain!! When the water gets hot,
it releases its fragrance and flavor. If you are like the bean, when
things are at their worst, you get better...... and change the situation
around you!

When the hours are the darkest, and trials are their greatest, do you
elevate to the next level? How do you handle adversity?

ARE YOU A CARROT, AN EGG, OR A COFFEE BEAN?

song of the day
Beatles - A Little Help From My Friends

A little help from my friends
What would you think if I sang out of tune,
Would you stand up and walk out on me.
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song,
And I'll try not to sing out of key.

I get by with a little help from my friends,
I get high with a little help from my friends,
Going to try with a little help from my friends.

What do I do when my love is away.
(Does it worry you to be alone)
How do I feel by the end of the day
(Are you sad because you're on your own)
No I get by with a little help from my friends,


I get by with a little help from my friends,
I get high with a little help from my friends,
Going to try with a little help from my friends.

Do you need anybody,
I need somebody to love.
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love.

Would you believe in a love at first sight,
Yes I'm certain that it happens all the time.
What do you see when you turn out the light,
I can't tell you, but I know it's mine.

I get by with a little help from my friends,
I get high with a little help from my friends,
Going to try with a little help from my friends.
Oh I get by with a little help from my friends,


Do you need anybody,
I just need somebody to love,
Could it be anybody,
I want somebody to love.

I get by with a little help from my friends,
I get high with a little help from my friends,
Going to try with a little help from my friends.

I get by with a little help from my friends,
Yes I get by with a little help from my friends,
With a little help from my friends.

rant

this has been quite possibly one of the hardest and longest weeks of my life... i am so hurt and confused... i just feel so lost and above all... alone ... not the type of alone where im in solitary confinement.. or around ppl i dont like... the type of alone when u go thru an experience which no one around u has... and therefore they can't really help u... they have tried... they are so way awesome and have been so supportive and awesome... i am so blessed... but at the end of the day... i am alone... alone with the memory of the incident... alone with my pain and confusion... alone in my suffering...

it seems like everyone else has gotten back to normal and while i can fake normalcy.... i am not ok i think about the incident all the time... u say... "dont think about it..." how can i not think about it? how can i not spend hours in anguish? how can i just "let it go"? how can i just smile and act like nothing happened... u say... "its not your fault..." how can it not at least be partly my fault? i was in a situation with which i had no experience.... i was alone in a situation i couldn't handle... i feel like its at least partly my fault.. and despite your efforts to convince me its not... the more u say... the more convinced i become that it is my fault... u say... "smile... let it go" smile?! LET IT GO?!?! i'm sorry... i can't just "let it go"... i can't be fine right now... I AM NOT FUCKING FINE... I AM NOT FUCKING OK...

im so ANGRY and UPSET right now... but i hate to upset those around me... so i just bottle it up... which i kno isn't the answer... but i do it anyways... it seems like everyone else is completely ok... which is understandable cuz they didn't go thru the incident... but i feel like i'm expected to be normal too... and i can't be... i'm trying here ok?? im fucking trying so hard and i just can't do it... its like no matter wut i do... its the WRONG thing.... don't talk about it... i upset ppl cuz i bottle sh*t up... talk about it... upset ppl with wut i say.... take long walks... upset ppl.... stay here... upset ppl... i can't handle this... i can't fucking handle this... i dont kno how to handle this ok?? i dont kno wut i should be doing here... i dont kno how im supposed to be acting... i dont kno wut i should be saying or feeling or thinking.... all i kno is wuts going thru me right now is purely negative and vile... i really hate myself right now... really and truly i do... i feel so pathetically weak and unable to handle anything... i am flipping out here so bad... i am completely oversensitive to everything... the slightest, most insignificant things make me feel like crying.... anything from waking up in the middle of the nite... to not buckling a seat belt... how fucking pathetic is that shit??? how pathetic is that? there aren't even enough words to describe it...

all i want to do... is get a 3.5... summer to come... and get the FUCK out of cal poly... i dont kno who i was kidding.... this place is not for me at all... i dont kno wut i was trying to prove but if anything i was proved wrong... i can't handle this place and i need out... this is a bad place for me... i need out...

end rant

thanks to those who are trying your best to help me out... i kno ima mess... just give me time... thank u honestly for even being willing to put up with me... u dont kno wut it means to me...

song of the day
Maroon 5 - Harder to Breathe

How dare you say that my behavior is unacceptable
So condescending unnecessarily critical

I have the tendency of getting very physical
So watch your step cause if I do you'll need a miracle

You drain me dry and make me wonder why I'm even here
This Double Vision I was seeing is finally clear
You want to stay but you know very well I want you gone
Not fit to funkin' tread the ground I'm walking on

When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
There's no way we're gonna give up
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe


What you are doing is screwing things up inside my head
You should know better you never listened to a word I said
Clutching your pillow and writhing in a naked sweat
Hoping somebody someday will do you like I did

When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
There's no way we're gonna give up
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe


Does it kill
Does it burn
Is it painful to learn
That it's me that has all the control

Does it thrill
Does it sting
When you feel what I bring
And you wish that you had me to hold

so its now half a week after "the incident"... god... i just DON'T understand... im at a loss for words and thoughts... i just feel so ... so... HURT... so confused... i just feel like crying ALL the time... im just going to put lyrics that explain wut im feeling... cuz they say it way better than i can..

Everyday I think about what you did
Livin' life ain't much with all the shit
Cause I'm going insane with all of it
You keep driving me crazy
Always crazy, you're gonna drive me crazy

Adema - Blow It Away

I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I find the answers aren't so clear
Wish I could find a way to disappear
All these thoughts they make no sense
Linkin Park - One Step Closer

Why am I even trying?
I'm crying out, I'm crying out
I cannot seem to keep from freaking out
Spinning round, spinning round, I've fallen down
I cannot seem to keep from freaking out
I'm trippin' out, I'm trippin' out

I cannot seem to keep from freaking out
Draw me down, breaking down
I've hit the ground
I cannot seem to keep from freaking out

Adema - Freaking Out

I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain I’ve felt so long
(Erase all the pain till it’s gone)
I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m close to something real
I wanna find something I’ve wanted all along
Somewhere I belong
Linkin Park - Somewhere I Belong

Today I made the worst mistake
I put my trust into someone I don't know
And now I know because you've done everything possible to me
Made me so upset
I was betrayed, how can you say that you feel sorry inside

Adema - Close Friends

I wanna run away
Never say goodbye

I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
Linkin Park - Runaway

This pain inside I can't understand
This hate in life that will not go away (Go away)
This pain inside I can not live with it
It feels like no one really understands

Adema - Pain Inside

I make the right moves but I’m lost within
I put on my daily façade but then
I just end up getting hurt again
Linkin Park - By Myself

i found these lyrics... i found them rather appropriate... gotta keep looking at the silver lining right?

Some days wouldn't be special, if it wasn't for rain

Joy wouldn't feel so good, if it wasn't for pain

Death gotta be easy, 'cause life is hard

quote of the day

FRIENDS ARE ANGELS WHO LIFT US TO OUR FEET WHEN OUR WINGS HAVE TROUBLE REMEMBERING HOW TO FLY

ok... i'm not usually a fan of avril lavigne... but i found this next song to be pretty cool... so i have made it my song of the day...

song of the day

Avril Lavigne
"Anything But Ordinary"

Sometimes I get so weird
I even freak myself out
I laugh myself to sleep
It's my lullaby
Sometimes I drive so fast
Just to feel the danger
I wanna scream
It makes me feel alive


Is it enough to love?
Is it enough to breathe?
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please

To walk within the lines
Would make my life so boring
I want to know that I
Have been to the extreme

So knock me off my feet
Come on now give it to me
Anything to make me feel alive

Is it enough to love?
Is it enough to breathe?
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please.

Let down your defences
Use no common sense
If you look you will see
that this world is a beautiful
accident turbulent suculent
opulent permanent, no way
I wanna taste it
Don't wanna waste it away


Sometimes I get so weird
I even freak myself out
I laugh my self to sleep
It's my lullaby

Is it enough?
Is it enough?
Is it enough to breathe?
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please

Is it enough?
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please.

ok... haven't done a song of the day in a very very long time... i heard this song over spring break... and me gusta mucho!! so here it goes...

song of the day

Evanescence feat. Paul McCoy
"Bring Me To Life"

how can you see into my eyes like open doors
leading you down into my core
where i've become so numb without a soul my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home wake me up inside
wake me up inside
call my name and save me from the dark
bid my blood to run
before i come undone
save me from the nothing i've become

now that i know what i'm without
you can't just leave me
breathe into me and make me real
bring me to life

wake me up inside
wake me up inside

call my name and save me from the dark
bid my blood to run
before i come undone
save me from the nothing i've become
bring me to life

frozen inside without your touch without your love darling only you are the life among the dead

all this time i can't believe i couldn't see
kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
i've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
got to open my eyes to everything
without a thought without a voice without a soul
don't let me die here
there must be something more
bring me to life
