    "Well some say life, will beat you down. Break your heart, steal your crown. So I've started out, for God knows where. I guess I'll know when I get there." - Tom Petty

    Hero Of The Day - Metallica


    Mama, they try and break me.
    The window burns to light the way back home
    A light that warms no matter where they've gone.
    They're off to find the hero of the day
    But what if they should fall by someone's wicked way?
    Still the window burns, time so slowly turns
    Someone there is sighing
    Keepers of the flames
    Do you feel your names?
    Do you hear your babies crying?
    Mama they try and break me
    Still they try and break me
    'Scuse me while I tend to how I feel
    These things return to me that still seem real
    Now deservingly this easy chair
    But the rocking stops by wheels of despair
    Don't want your aid
    But the fist I've made for years won't hold or feel
    No I'm not all me
    So please excuse me while I tend to how I fell
    But now the dreams and waking screams that ever last through the night (echoed between James and Jason)

    So build the wall behind it crawl and hide until it's light
    Can you hear your babies crying now?
    Still the window burns
    Time so slowly turns
    And someone there is sighing
    Keepers of the flames, can't you feel your names?
    Can't you hear your babies crying?
    But now the dreams and waking screams that
    ever last the night
    So build a wall behind it crawl
    And hide until it's light
    So can't you hear your babies crying now?
    Mama they try and break me
    Mama they try and break me
    Mama they try and break me
    Mama they try mama they try
    Mama they try and break me
    Mama they try and break me
    Mama they try and break me
    Mama they try and break me
    Mama they try and break me
    Mama they try and break me
    Mama they try Mama they try

    And so maybe
    Your friends they stand around they watch you crumble
    As you falter to the ground
    And then someday
    Your friends they stand beside as you were flying
    Oh you were flying oh so high

    -- Candlebox "Far Behind"

    Don't go changing, to try and please me,
    You never let me down before,
    Don't imagine, you're too familiar,
    And I don't see you anymore.

    I would not leave you, in times of trouble,
    We never could have come this far,
    I took the good times, I'll take the bad times,
    I'll take you just the way you are.

    Don't go trying, some new fashion,
    Don't change the colour of your hair,
    You always have my, unspoken passion,
    Although I might not seem to care.

    I don't want clever, conversation,
    I never want to work that hard,
    I just want someone, that I can talk to,
    I want you just the way you are.

    I need to know that you will always be
    The same old someone that I knew,
    What will it take till you believe in me,
    The way that I believe in you?

    I said I love you, and that's forever,
    And this I promise from the heart,
    I couldn't love you, any better,
    I love you just the way you are.

    I don't want clever, conversation,
    I never want to work that hard,
    I just want someone, that I can talk to,
    I want you just the way you are.


    Just the way you are by Billy Joel

    Reminds me of something my husband said to me recently.

    Edited because I seriously chopped it up LOL

    Well I won't back down
    No I won't back down
    You can stand me up at the gates of hell
    But I won't back down

    No I'll stand my ground, won't be turned around
    And I'll keep this world from draggin me down
    gonna stand my ground
    ... and I won't back down

    We weren't born to follow
    Come on and get up off your knees
    When life is a bitter pill to swallow
    You gotta hold on to what you believe

    Believe that the sun will shine tomorrow
    And that your saints and sinners bleed
    We weren't born to follow
    You gotta stand up for what you believe

    Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah

    If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied
    Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
    If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
    Then I'll follow you into the dark

    This don't mean that you own me
    This ain't no good, in fact it's phony as hell
    But things worked out just like you wanted to
    If you see me out you don't know me
    Try to turn your head, try to give me some room
    To figure out just what I'm going to do

    And everyone here hates everyone here for doing just like they do
    It's best if we all keep this quiet instead
    And I couldn't tell why everyone here was doing me like they do
    But I'm sorry now and I don't know how
    To get it back to good

    It's breeding and its training and its something unknown, that drives you and carries you home.

    "Are you really here or am I dreamin'?
    I can't tell dreams from truth,
    For it's been so long since I have seen you.
    I can hardly remember your face anymore.
    When I get really lonely and the distance calls its only silence,
    I think of you smiling with pride in your eyes a, lover that sighs. "

    - "If You Want Me" Marketa Irglova with Glen Hansard

    Love this one!

    Once! LOVE :)

    Oh, and there are a few scattered stanzas in Peter Gabriel's Blood of Eden that have special meaning to me as they remind me of the day I realized that my life was out of control - it was a few months before I managed to get help and turn things around, but I ramble... here are the lyrics:

    I caught sight of my reflection
    I caught it in the window
    I saw the darkness in my heart
    I saw the signs of my undoing
    They had been there from the start
    And the darkness still has work to do
    The knotted chord's untying
    [...]
    My grip is surely slipping
    I think I've lost my hold
    Yes, I think I've lost my hold
    I cannot get insurance anymore
    They don't take credit, only gold
    [...]
    At my request, you take me in
    In that tenderness, I am floating away
    No certainty, nothing to rely on
    Holding still for a moment
    What a moment this is
    Oh for a moment of forgetting, a moment of bliss
    [...]
    I can hear the distant thunder
    Of a million unheard souls
    Watch each one reach for creature comfort
    For the filling of their holes

    ~ I have died everyday waiting for you ...
    Darling don't be afraid I have loved you ...
    For a thousand years ... I'll love you for a thousand more.

    Great song. :)

    why do birds suddenly appear
    everytime you are near
    just like me they long to be
    close to you

    lol makes me think of my boyfriend

    I still remember the world
    From the eyes of a child
    Slowly those feelings
    Were clouded by what I know now

    Where has my heart gone
    An uneven trade for the real world
    Oh I... I want to go back to
    Believing in everything and knowing nothing at all

    I still remember the sun
    Always warm on my back
    Somehow it seems colder now

    Where has my heart gone
    Trapped in the eyes of a stranger
    Oh I... I want to go back to
    Believing in everything

    ...everybody carves a spot
    And fills the hole with light.
    And I pray someday I might
    Shine as bright as you..
