Snake Charmer

I felt a stutter and a waiver
Cutting like a razor
Like fire through the snow
Then straight down to the bone

She creeps up like a spider
And wants you deep inside her
She turns you into stone
A twisted little show

That's how it was to all begin
'Cause good girls they like to sin
Way back at the starting line
When Eve was on Adam's mind
And he was the first to go
In search of the great unknown
And falling yet again
'Cause good girls they like to sin

You are a hero and survivor
Your eyes are getting tired
There's claw marks up your spine
It happens all the time
Those silent evil daughters
Like sirens on the water
You bend the perfect crime
It happens all the time

That's how it was to all begin
Cause good girls they like to sin
Way back at the starting line
When Eve was on Adam's mind
And he was the first to go
In search of the great unknown
And falling yet again
'Cause good girls they like to sin

Good girls they like to sin
Falling yet again

Heartless

For once my eyes are open to you, and everything you've said.
For once your web of lies is in the open.
I gave you everything I had, until I had nothing left.
Now still you act as if I'm just a burden.
I've finally let go. Let go, let go.

Stay silent at least for now, and let me move on.
'Cause I'm so done playing these games with my heart
I've been around the world and back for you, and now its time to choose.

I've been swallowed by this wreck that you call your life.
I'm damaged from the inside. I've been broken.
Don't threaten me with what you think I feel.
If you could read my mind you'd be in tears.

I'm sick of your excuses you hold above me.
I've finally come to terms with what I am.
I'm nothing in your eyes, and this will not change.
I'm living in a dream.

Stay silent at least for now, and let me move on.
'Cause I'm so done playing these games with my heart
I've been around the world and back for you, and now its time to choose.

Tonight

I’m not gonna waste this
This opportunity’s mine
I’m sick of complaining
About a beautiful life

How did we get here?
Did we forget all the things inside?
And how do we stay here?
Do we embrace all the things denied?

I feel so alive tonight
You got me feeling sublime
I want to yell it from the rooftops down
Until it’s over, and we’re older

For my entertainment
You tell a whimsical lie
To keep me complacent
You knock me down with a smile

How did we get here?
How do we pretend everything’s alright?
And how do we stay here?
Do we erase all the fear inside?

I feel so alive tonight
You got me feeling sublime
I want to yell it from the rooftops down
Until it’s over, and we’re older

Like sugar and cyanide
These worlds are gonna collide
I want to yell it from the rooftops down
Until it’s over, and we’re older

So take me, but go slow
Let me hide somewhere I know
And let this seed grow
Until we finally call this home
So take me, but go slow

Adam's Song

I never thought I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest who'd have known?
I trace the cord back to the wall
No wonder it was never plugged in at all
I took my time, I hurried up
The choice was mine I didn't think enough
I'm too depressed to go on
You'll be sorry when I'm gone

I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside
The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over we'd survived
I couldn't wait till I got home
To pass the time in my room alone

I never thought I'd die alone
Another six months I'll be unknown
Give all my things to all my friends
You'll never step foot in my room again
You'll close it off, board it up
Remember the time that I spilled the cup
Of apple juice in the hall
Please tell mom this is not her fault

I never conquered, rarely came
Tomorrow holds such better days
Days when I can still feel alive
When I can't wait to get outside

MakeDamnSure

You've got this new head filled up with smoke
And 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 break you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
I just wanna break you down so badly
In the worst way

My inarticulate store bought hangover hobby kit, it talks
It says, "You, oh, you are so cool."
Scissor shaped 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 break you down so badly

Random Paramore lyrics

I'm in the business of misery,
Let's take it from the top.
She's got a body like an hourglass that's ticking like a clock.
It's a matter of time before we all run out,
When I thought he was mine she caught him by the mouth.

I waited eight long months,
She finally set him free.
I told him I couldn't lie he was the only one for me.
Two weeks and we had caught on fire,
She's got it out for me,
But I wear the biggest smile.

Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now.
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag
To steal it all away from you now.
But God does it feel so good,
Cause I got him where I want him now.
And if you could then you know you would.
Cause God it just feels so...
It just feels so good.

Second chances they don't ever matter, people never change
Once a whore you're nothing more, I'm sorry, that'll never change
And about forgiveness, we're both supposed to have exchanged.
Sorry honey, but I passed it up, now look this way

Ugh

Being overweight sucks. I hate it, seriously. I feel terrible about my self all the time.
Hopefully I can exercise and eat better after school starts. My friend also wants me to play volleyball this year, and I kind of want to but I can't help but think Ill be terrible at it and end up screwing up all the time.I'm no way in shape at all so practice will be complete hell. But it migt help...

Matt and Kim

Matt and Kim are going to be the support band for the Hinda Civic Tour. I saw them on Jimmy Fallon the other day and they were pretty good :)
It's not the kind of music that I normally listen to, but I like their song, Block After Block.
________
Watch out for late phone calls
Wheat paste and concrete walls

Go too far, live too long
Time's too short, right and wrong

Block after block,
Block after block

Roll down gates, look the same
Different trips, different trains

Hey friends break in the back door
And turn it up while the lights are out
Eyes closed and shouting right now

Lights turn on and dark turns up
Side by side dream bigger
Next in line it's late
Now this is all me
Now this is all me

Eat when you're hungry and
Sleep when you're slipping like

Tired dogs rest their paws
Today we show our flaws

Block after block,
Block after block

It's one way now on Wythe
What was left, now is right

Hey friends we'll jump the turnstiles

I have 86 pages of blogs....

I used to blog like every day back in 2009/early 2010. Then I kind of stopped until now.
I'm not sure what made me start posting things again. All my old blogs are cringe-worthy cause I sound so stupid.
Everyone that I used to know is gone basically, and it's not like anyone reads this anyway. Oh well.
