i know you try your hardest to give me what i need;
you show me where your heart is; mine needs time to breathe
it may not broken, but it's far from fine...
the sweetest words you've spoken will help it mend in time...

Excuse me, are you lost? Perhaps you would care to visit the site map

Matthew West – More

Just a face in the city, just a tear on a crowded street, but you are one in a million and you belong to me, and I want you to know: I’m not letting go, even when you come undone.
More than the sun and the stars that I taught how to shine, you are mine and you shine for me too.. I love you yesterday and today and tomorrow and I say it again and again: I love you more.

If you want to be my friend, you want us to get along, please do not expect me to wrap it up and keep it there..
a observation I am doing could easily be understood as cynical demeanor…but one of us misread.. what do you know—it happened again.
A friend is not a means you utilize to get somewhere..
How come no one told me: all throughout history, the loneliest people were the ones who always spoke the truth, the ones who made a difference by withstanding the indifference.. I guess it’s up to me now.. should I take that risk or just smile?

SpeedwaySave Yourself

You seem to think there's nobody like you; day after day don't know what you might do. 'Can't understand what it really feels like; something so small is killing you inside.
...Nobody's changing the truth. You've got to save yourself.

Stephen Kellogg & The Sixers – Keep Me In Your Thoughts
Snow PatrolIt’s Beginning to Get to Me

it’s beginning to get to me that I know more of the stars and sea than I do of what’s in your head…
We need to feel breathless with love and not collapse under its weight.
I’m gasping for the air to fill my lungs with everything I’ve lost.

Keane Your Eyes Open

I don’t know you and I don’t want to
til the moment your eyes open and you know


FormatOn the Porch

I can see their eyes.. but tell me something: can they see mine?
‘Cause what’s left to lose? I’ve done enough. And if I fail, well then I fail, but I gave it a shot. And these last three years, I know they’ve been hard, but now it’s time to get out of the desert and into the sun. Even if it’s alone.

All-American RejectsMove Along

when all you gotta keep is strong, move along move along like I know you do. And even when your hope is gone, move along move along just to make it through..
go on. When everything is wrong, we move along.


AugustanaBoston (still on my playlist)

You don’t know me, you don’t even care. You don’t know me, you don’t wear my chains. ... I think I need a sunrise. I’m tired of the sunset.


GomezHow We Operate

Please come here.. come right on over.. when we collide we’ll see what gets left over
... There is no line that you can’t step right over.
Turn a new page, tear the old one out; I’ll try to see things your way.. and I’m gonna love you anyway.


HemLeave Me Here (over a year on my playlist)

I could tell by his face—those two tired eyes—it’s been a long night searching for grace, and the sun won’t rise. Now I have been here before, though I know I am lost. ‘Cause the same place that filled me with joy is a road I crossed, just a road I crossed. ... So as I rise, I will reach for the livin’... I’ll say no prayer.. cuz tonight love feels nothing like heaven, to leave me here.


Maroon 5Through With You

saying “I love you” has nothing to do with meaning it


Snow Patrol – You Could Be Happy

Do the things that you always wanted to. Without me there to hold you back, don’t think, just do.
