Le Sigh

So...right now mom's upstairs singing 'Nights Are Forever Without You' by England Dan and John Ford Coley...it's amusing.

So, I write songs...and I write 16's, sometimes I'm grown up, and sometimes I'm still playin' with them kids things. I shall use this blog as a spring-board for the songs and lyrics I write that are either positive, or not obscenely negative, startiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing now:

I found myself this morning
Wrapped up in a cocoon
I looked up and around
And in a dream it was made of you
Tell me, what would you do for love?
Would you grit your teeth and try to speak from the heart?
And could you look me in the eyes and say I'm what you're thinking of
Could you let your actions reflect your feelings with me in the dark?
Now I'm a sucker for love, I've got to say
And in the dreams of a broken heart
You're never quite so far away
For a moment I felt decieved,
But the fact is I felt a failure to you more than me
Someday you'll remember
And someday you'll find me
But if you don't that's okay
I may not need your arms to bind me...tonight I wanna cry...
I know what will bring the tears about,
But I'm too scared to put that music on
I'm afraid of what might come out...
The songs that define you so perfectly
The words and the melody that bring you back to me...

It’s Been A While Right Here seemingly So Far Away
Now I have to say
Even just for today
You’re the reason whyI can’t listen to Maroon 5
King Harvest Dancing in the Moonlight
Gerry Rafferty while I’m walking down Baker Street
Walking away from West Side…’cause I see you there everywhere inside
You’re the reason I can’t listen to George Strait getting Carried Away
Maybe you’re making me a little Crazy
But I think I like my life that way
You keep me Broken, and I’m lonesome
And I haven’t felt right since you took yourself away
Every now and then I fall apart like Avril Lavigne
And I relate to the Foo Fighters in times like these
But I still see you today the same way I did yesterday
See, You’re Always a Woman to Me
Now, the Heaven’s open every time you smile
You make me feel at home
Keeping the world a ways away like a country mile
Don Henley helps me picturing Taking You Home
Ushering in the End of the Innocence
Remembering your hand against mine, fingertips touching fingertips
Then my chest tightens and I’m lost in a memory lingering in silence
Like Mike Shinoda I’m wondering Where’d You Go…I miss you so
Every door is closed
You’ve got your walls up, decisions made making obstacles
Yet I still believe in Miracles
You started to wash away everything that had Staind my life and my heart
And every dayYou took me So Far Away…
My Beautiful Love
These songs are difficult to listen to
‘Cause I’m The Man In Love With You
You’re the reason I wake up from a deep sleep in the middle of the night
I saw your face and felt high but something deep down didn’t sit right
On Sunday nights around midnight I think about you and I
And on Monday mornings around five I wish for you and I
I won’t let you be a part of life that was just passing by
In memories infinitely saying hello then goodbye
And you’re the reason I can eatI can barely sleep…
Yeah I’m a little Broken, just a little Broken
I’m feelin’ a little lonesome
And I’m hopin’You’ll be the reason I can smile again
You’ll be the reason that while I’m contained I can feel free and wild again
You’re the Whisper of a Thrill
The underlying intensity and chill in everything I feel...
