Godsmack :: I Stand Alone

Now I've told you this once before can't control me
If you try to take me down you're gonna break
I feel your every nothing that your doing for me
I'm thinking you oughta make you run away

I stand alone inside
I stand alone(I stand alone)

You're always hiding behind your so called goddess
So what, you don't think that we can see your face?
Resurrected back before the final fallen
I'll never rest until I can make my own way

I'm not afraid of fading
I stand alone
Feeling your sting down inside me
I'm not dying for it
I stand alone
Everything that I believe is fading
I stand alone inside
I stand alone(I stand alone)

Now it's my time (now it's my time)
It's my time to dream (It's my time to dream)
Dream of the skies (dream of the skies)
Make me believe that this place isn't plagued by the poison in me
Help me decide if my fire will burn out before you can breath
Breath into me

I stand alone inside
I stand alone

Feeling your sting down inside me
I'm not dying for it
I stand alone
Everything that I believe is fading

I stand alone inside
I stand alone inside
I stand alone inside
I stand alone inside


I have always made my way, Ive manged to get through many things that would have stopped others. I never have known the word give up, or surrender. No matter who it is that tries to convince me they know better, I will follow my own path. People who try to be high handed, or aloof find out that I dont abide by that, I am no one's whipping boy, or stepping stone. Cut me and I bleed, watch the poison come out. Cut me again and I will return the favor in kind.

Wolfsheim :: And I...

Hoping... feeling...

I will come back to you

And hold you in my arms

And I...

I know you're wrong but

I can't change a single thing

It's like it's meant to be!



Inside I feared to find it…

That you cannot stand the fact

I´m not in love with you!

And I...

I´ve got the feeling

That I've really had enough

It had to end right here!



There is nothing left to lose

Despite the time we've spent...

Nothing left for you

And I...

Still had the feeling

I won't find in you what I still sought

So what am I to do?!

Its the summary of my love life. People in love with me that Im not in love with. Unrequited love over the years. Trying to figure out what to do with my life.
On a different perspective, its chasing dreams. Realizing that the goals you had for yourself are not the ones you want any more. Seeing life more clearly with age and experience. Trying to figure out where to go when the path you follow is no longer clear.

Yay for pandora

Tori Amos - Spark

She's addicted to nicotine patches
She's addicted to nicotine patches
She's afraid of the light in the dark
6:58 are you sure where my spark is
Here
Here
Here

She's convinced she could hold back a glacier
But she couldn't keep Baby alive
Doubting if there's a woman in there somewhere
Here

You say you don't want it again
And again but you don't really mean it
You say you don't want it
This circus we're in
But you don't you don't really mean it
You don't really mean it
if the Divine master plan is perfection
Maybe next I'll give Judas a try
Trusting my soul to the ice cream assassin
Here

You say you don't want it again
And again but you don't really mean it
You say you don't want it
This cirucs we're in
But you don't you don't really mean it
You don't really mean it
How may fates turn around in the overtime
Ballerinas that have fins that you'll never find
You thought that you were the bomb yeah
Well so did I
Say you don't want it
Say you don't want it
Say you don't want it again
And again but you don't really mean it
Say you don't want it
This circus we're in
But you don't you don't really mean it
You don't really mean it

She's addicted to nicotine patches
She's afraid of the light in the dark
6:58 are you sure where my spark is
Here


---- This sums up my current situation perfectly. He says he doesn't want us, again. -- But he doesn't mean it. He keeps changing his mind. -- He certainly does think "He's the bomb." ... Yeah 'well, so DID I.".

Portishead - All Mine

All the stars may shine bright
All the clouds may be white
But when you smile
Ohh how I feel so good
That I can hardly wait
To hold you
Enfold you
Never enough
Render your heart to me
All mine.......
You have to be
From that cloud, number nine
Danger starts the sharp incline
And such sad regrets
Ohh as those starry skies
As they swiftly fall
Make no mistake
You shan't escape
Tethered and tied
There's nowhere to hide from me
All mine....
You have to be
Don't resist
We shall exist
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
All mine.......
You have to be

This doesn't apply to anyone. If anything, I'm avoiding things like this at all costs at the moment.

It's like a conversation between the stages of your recent life.

"Take a Chance on Me", ABBA, The Album

[raidingparty.livejournal.com]

If you change your mind, I’m the first in line
Honey I’m still free
Take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
If you’ve got no place to go, if you’re feeling down
If you’re all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey I’m still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best and it ain’t no lie
If you put me to the test, if you let me try

Take a chance on me
(that’s all I ask of you honey)
Take a chance on me

We can go dancing, we can go walking, as long as we’re together
Listen to some music, maybe just talking, get to know you better
’cos you know I’ve got
So much that I wanna do, when I dream I’m alone with you
It’s magic
You want me to leave it there, afraid of a love affair
But I think you know
That I can’t let go

If you change your mind, I’m the first in line
Honey I’m still free
Take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
If you’ve got no place to go, if you’re feeling down
If you’re all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey I’m still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best and it ain’t no lie
If you put me to the test, if you let me try

Take a chance on me
(come on, give me a break will you? )
Take a chance on me

Oh you can take your time baby, I’m in no hurry, know I’m gonna get you
You don’t wanna hurt me, baby don’t worry, I ain’t gonna let you
Let me tell you now
My love is strong enough to last when things are rough
It’s magic
You say that I waste my time but I can’t get you off my mind
No I can’t let go
’cos I love you so

If you change your mind, I’m the first in line
Honey I’m still free
Take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
If you’ve got no place to go, if you’re feeling down
If you’re all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey I’m still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best, baby can’t you see
Gotta put me to the test, take a chance on me
(take a chance, take a chance, take a chance on me)

Ba ba ba ba baa, ba ba ba ba baa
Honey I’m still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best, baby can’t you see
Gotta put me to the test, take a chance on me
(take a chance, take a chance, take a chance on me)

Ba ba ba ba baa, ba ba ba ba baa ba-ba
Honey I’m still free
Take a chance on me

Hm. Best interpretation is a reprise of Excuse Me, Your Life is Waiting. I certainly hope neither I nor any of my former lovers are stuck in a holding pattern over happiness central.
