somehow the vital connection never happened

Nov 15 2007, 23h34

every time i listen to Elastica it makes me think my life isn't fun enough. probably because i know it would have been a lot more fun to be a teenager in the mid-nineties. oh, all those britpop bands...

to you, my love

Jun 19 2007, 4h03

kudos to people that sing a capella and humiliate others with their talent.

i want to sing to you, my love
my only love and happiness
don't be so blue, so blue, my love
take off your shoes, take off my dress
i want to sing to you, my love
my only love and happiness
don't be so blue, so blue, my love
this too shall pass, this too shall pass

but tell me, what have i done to deserve you?
must have done something cause that's how it works
must have been kind to kittens and birds,
in a previous life must have thought happy thoughts...

'cause there, you were there right beside me
then somehow inside me while inside myself
books on the shelf thoughts on the shelf
hands to myself, i should definitely keep my hands to myself

love is a dangerous pastime
caught between madness and gladness of flight
nothing is wrong and nothing is right
falling asleep in your arms every night

but love's such a strange situation
full of frustration and anger and fear
everything's tears
nobody hears
nobody's here, and nobody hears...

i want to sing to you, my love
my only love and happiness
don't be so blue, so blue, my love
take off your shoes, take off my dress
i want to sing to you, my love
my only love and happiness
don't be so blue, so blue, my love
this too shall pass, this too shall pass...

I Want to Sing

the wrist-slitting song of the week

Dez 29 2006, 14h48

looking out the door
i see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners
parading in a wake of sad relations
as their shoes fill up with water

maybe i'm too young
to keep good love from going wrong
but tonight, you're on my mind,
so you never know

broken down and hungry for your love,
with no way to feed it
where are you tonight?
child, you know how much i need it.
too young to hold on
and too old to just break free and run

sometimes a man gets carried away,
when he feels like he should be having his fun
much too blind to see the damage he's done
sometimes a man must awake to find that, really,
he has no-one

so i'll wait for you, and i'll burn
will i ever see your sweet return?
oh, will i ever learn?
oh, lover, you should've come over
'cause it's not too late.

lonely is the room, the bed is made,
the open window lets the rain in
burning in the corner is the only one
who dreams he had you with him
my body turns and yearns for a sleep
that won't ever come

it's never over,
my kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
it's never over,
all my riches for her smiles when I slept so soft against her
it's never over,
all my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
it's never over,
she's a tear that hangs inside my soul forever

but maybe i'm just too young
to keep good love from going wrong

oh, lover, you should've come over

yes, and i feel too young to hold on
i'm much too old to break free and run
too deaf, dumb, and blind
to see the damage i've done
sweet lover, you should've come over
oh, love, well i'll wait for you
lover, you should've come over
'cause it's not too late.

Lover, You Should've Come Over
Lover, You Should Have Come Over

this place is empty

Out 29 2006, 3h17

walk right in, sit on down
and make yourself at home
come on baby, you're just like me
and you hate to be alone

it's funny how things go around
it's crazy but it's true
this place is empty, oh so empty
it's empty without you

come on, bare your breasts
and make me feel at home
you and me we're just like all the rest
and we don't want to be alone

it's funny how things go around
but go around they do
this place is empty, empty
so empty without you

it's empty without you

come on, simmer down
and treat me sweet and cool
at least by now you have learned
how to love a fool

it's funny how things turn around
it's crazy but it's true
this place is empty, so empty
so empty without you

This Place Is Empty

Set 10 2006, 8h18

there's something about this band...

i rewrite my life beneath the moonlight
please hold me now till my breath runs out
there are many things that i am not
but there's one thing that i can't deny

a double bluff you fed me lines,
the shortest cut you're searching for
a mesh of tones surround your eyes
i wish i knew how it came to this

i always said you could rely on me
now it seems that i was wrong
I want you to stay
I want you to stay with me

'cause nothing works round here
where cranes collect the sky
i long for the neon signs of night
'cause nothing works round here

you know the way i feel
can you remember what we had?

why do you think i over take?
i speak to you and you don't say no
a camera runs just to collect
i wish i knew how it came to this

the lies we tell are bound on film
and you start to push your lips to mine
outside my room you closed your eyes
and in the end it came to this

i always said you could rely on me
now it seems that i was wrong
i want you to stay
i want you to stay with me

'cause nothing works round here
where cranes collect the sky
i think of your face at night
'cause nothing works around here

you know the way i feel
can you remember what we had?
as time gets more compressed
you're always my reminder

a lifetime disappears
can you remember what we had?
as time gets more compressed,
you're always my reminder
you're always my reminder

you know the way i feel
you know the way i feel

I Want You to Stay

real love

Jul 23 2006, 16h39

being in love is pathetic, but it feels awesome :)

all my little plans and schemes
lost like some forgotten dreams
seems that all i really was doing
was waiting for you

just like little girls and boys
playing with their little toys
seems like all they really were doing
was waiting for love

don't need to be alone
no need to be alone

it's real love
it's really real
it's real love
it's really real

from this moment on i know
exactly where my life will go
seems that all i really was doing
was waiting for love

don't need to be afraid
no need to be afraid

it's real love
it's really real
it's real love
it's really real

thought i'd been in love before,
but in my heart i wanted more
seems like all i really was doing
was waiting for you

don't need to be alone
no need to be alone

it's real love
it's really real
it's real love
it's really real

Real Love
