Your break up- As a song?


Recommended Posts

A coulel come to mind right now.

 

I do enjoy music a lot, but right now, I just can't handle much that way.

 

But,

 

I am able to relax and gain a moment's worth of peace with

 

Miles Davis "Flamenco Sketches" and Bill Evans piano verion "Peace Piece"

 

 

For lyrical words and catharsis,

 

Robert Earl Keen "Broken End OF Love" and Shelby Lynn's "Where Am I Now"

 

But right now even music stings TOO damn hard.

A spiteful ballad...

 

Apologize- One Republic

 

I’m holding on your rope

Got me ten feet off the ground

And I’m hearing what you say

But I just can’t make a sound

You tell me that you need me

Then you go and cut me down

But wait...

You tell me that you’re sorry

Didn’t think I’d turn around and say..

 

That it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late

I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late

 

I’d take another chance, take a fall, take a shot for you

And I need you like a heart needs a beat

(But that's nothing new)

Yeah yeah

 

I loved you with a fire red, now it’s turning blue

And you say

Sorry like the angel heaven let me think was you

But I’m afraid

 

It’s too late to apologize, it’s too late

I said it’s too late to apologizes, it’s too late

Woahooo woah

 

It’s too late to apologize, it’s too late

I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late

I said it’s too late to apologize, yeah yeah

I said it’s too late to apologize, a yeah

 

I’m holding on your rope

Got me ten feet off the ground...

 

And a sad song...

 

How my heart Behaves- Feist

 

What grew

What grew

What grew and inside who

First so simple was the vow

Then the chorus sang about

Your shoulder

The mooring for me

Like water lost in the sea

 

The cold heart will burst

If mistrusted first

And a calm heart will break

When given a shake

 

I'm a stem now

Pushing the drought aside

Opening up

Fanning my yellow eye

On the ferry

That's making the waves wave

Illumination

This is how my heart behaves

 

The cold heart will burst

If mistrusted first

And a calm heart will break when given a shake

 

(How her heart behaves)

The rain rain making me cry

(How her heart behaves)

Then the wind comes

Fanning my yellow eye

(How her heart behaves)

The waves wave the waves wave

This is how my heart behaves

 

A cold heart will burst

If mistrusted first

And a calm heart will break

When given a shake

The cold heart will burst

If mistrusted first

And a calm heart will break

When given a shake

 

What grew

What grew

What grew and inside who

Here's mine (my signature line comes from this song, BTW):

 

THE ALL-AMERICAN REJECTS LYRICS

"It Ends Tonight"

 

Your subtleties

They strangle me

I can't explain myself at all.

And all the wants

And all the needs

All I don't want to need at all.

 

The walls start breathing

My mind's unweaving

Maybe it's best you leave me alone.

A weight is lifted

On this evening

I give the final blow.

 

When darkness turns to light,

It ends tonight

It ends tonight.

 

A falling star

Least I fall alone.

I can't explain what you can't explain.

You're finding things that you didn't know

I look at you with such disdain

 

The walls start breathing

My mind's unweaving

Maybe it's best you leave me alone.

A weight is lifted

On this evening

I give the final blow.

 

When darkness turns to light

It ends tonight,

It ends tonight.

Just a little insight won't make this right

It's too late to fight

It ends tonight,

It ends tonight.

 

Now I'm on my own side

It's better than being on your side

It's my fault when you're blind

It's better that I see it through your eyes

 

All these thoughts locked inside

Now you're the first to know

 

When darkness turns to light

It ends tonight,

It ends tonight.

Just a little insight won't make this right

It's too late to fight

It ends tonight,

It ends

 

When darkness turns to light

It ends tonight,

It ends tonight.

Just a little insight won't make this right

It's too late to fight

It ends tonight,

It ends tonight.

 

Tonight

Insight

When darkness turns to light,

It ends tonight.

Smokey Robinson & The Miracles : Tracks of my Tears

 

People say I'm the life of the party

 

'cause I tell a joke or two

 

Although I might be laughing loud and hearty

 

Deep inside I'm blue

 

So take a good look at my face

 

You'll see my smile looks out of place

 

If you look closer, it's easy to trace

 

The tracks of my tears..

 

I need you, need you

 

Since you left me if you see me with another girl

 

Seeming like I'm having fun

 

Although she may be cute

 

She's just a substitute

 

Because you're the permanent one..

 

So take a good look at my face

 

You'll see my smile looks out of place

 

If you look closer, it's easy to trace

 

The tracks of my tears..

 

I need you, need you

 

Outside I'm masquerading

 

Inside my hope is fading

 

Just a clown oh yeah

 

Since you put me down

 

My smile is my make up

 

I wear since my break up with you..

 

So take a good look at my face

 

You'll see my smile looks out of place

 

If you look closer, it's easy to trace

 

The tracks of my tears, baby, baby,baby,

 

baby, take a good look at my face oh yeah

 

see my smile it's out of place ah look a little bit

 

closer it's easy to trace the tracks of my tears (FADE)

fiona apple and i are best friends recently.

 

her line from paper bag "i thought he was a man but he was just a little boy" is so fitting.

 

paper bag is a fantastic song, but i think sleep to dream is pretty much spot on how i feel right now.

 

I tell you how I feel, but you don't care

I say tell me the truth, but you don't dare

You say love is a hell you cannot bear

And I say gimme mine back and then go there - for all I care

 

I got my feet on the ground and I don't go to sleep to dream

You got your head in the clouds and you're not at all what you seem

This mind, this body, and this voice cannot be stifled by your deviant ways

So don't forget what I told you, don't come around, I got my own hell to raise

 

I have never been so insulted in all my life

I could swallow the seas to wash down all this pride

First you run like a fool just to be at my side

And now you run like a fool, but you just run to hide, and I can't abide

 

I got my feet on the ground and I don't go to sleep to dream

You got your head in the clouds and you're not at all what you seem

This mind, this body, and this voice cannot be stifled by your deviant ways

So don't forget what I told you, don't come around, I got my own hell to raise

 

Don't make it a big deal, don't be so sensitive

We're not playing a game anymore; you don't have to be so defensive

Don't you plead me your case, don't bother to explain

Don't even show me your face, 'cuz it's a crying shame

Just go back to the rock from under which you came

Take the sorrow you gave and all the stakes you claim -

And don't forget the blame

 

I got my feet on the ground and I don't go to sleep to dream

You got your head in the clouds and you're not at all what you seem

This mind, this body, and this voice cannot be stifled by your deviant ways

So don't forget what I told you, don't come around, I got my own hell to raise
