Today has turned out to be as surreal as yesterday and it's not like anything's actually happened. Maybe it's cos I feel it's 10 pm when it's only coming up on 9pm.
I have some lyrics to post tonight but I'm going to hide them behind the cut because, well, yeh.
crouchingmajor gave me the 13 going on 30 soundtrack for my birthday (yes, belated but so was mine, I think, lol. I got five lollipops the other day from another friend. Lol) and it's one of the songs from there that I don't remember from the film. The albumn is gorgeous though and I love it :o) I also want to get Raghav's albumn and We Are by Ana Johnsson. And the Ashley Simpson song which I'm also going to post up here.
Denzina posted her India story on HereIBelong; she had a great time. However, when she returned, she brought back her brothers...who seem to be in a better mood now. It's just awkward for me to talk to them right now. It's all about glass boxes and people never understand that image anyway.
I'm only posting these because they were worth something to me today. I've also been singing Tracy Chapman a lot this week. Love those songs!
"Why Can't I?"
Get a load of me, get a load of you
Walkin' down the street, and I hardly know you
It's just like we were meant to be
Holding hands with you when we're out at night
Got a girlfriend, you say it isn't right
And I've got someone waiting too
What if this is just the beginning
We're already wet, and we're gonna go swimming
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
It's inevitable, it's a fact that we're gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Isn't this the best part of breakin' up
Finding someone else you can't get enough of
Someone who wants to be with you too
It's an itch we know we are gonna scratch
Gonna take a while for this egg to hatch
But wouldn't it be beautiful
Here we go, we're at the beginning
We haven't fucked yet, but my heads spinning
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
It's inevitable, it's a fact that we're gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
High enough for you to make me wonder
Where it's goin'
High enough for you to pull me under
Somethin's growin'
out of this that we can control
Baby I am dyin'
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
It's inevitable, it's a fact that we're gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you

"Pieces of Me"
On a Monday I am waiting
Tuesday I am fading
And by Wednesday I can’t sleep
Then the phone rings I hear you
And the darkness is a clear view
Cause you’ve come to rescue me
Fall, with you I fall so fast
I can hardly catch my breath
I hope it lasts
Ohhhh
It seems like I can finally
Rest my head on something real
I like the way that feels
Ohhhh
It’s as if you know me better
Than I ever knew myself
I love how you can tell
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
I am moody and messy
I get restless and it’s senseless
How you never seem to care
When I’m angry you listen
Make me happy it’s your mission
And you won’t stop till I’m there
Fall, sometimes I fall so fast
When I hit that bottom crash
You’re all I have
Ohhhh
It seems like I can finally
Rest my head on something real
I like the way that feels
Ohhhh
It’s as if you know me better
Than I ever knew myself
I love how you can tell
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
How do you know?
Everything I’m about to say
Am I that obvious?
And if it’s written on my face
I hope it never goes away
Yea
On a Monday I am waiting
By Tuesday I am fading
Into your arms
So I can breathe
Ohhhh
It seems like I can finally
Rest my head on something real
I like the way that feels
Ohhhh
It’s as if you know me better
Than I ever knew myself
I love how you can tell
Ohhhh
I love how you can tell
Ohhhh
I love how you can tell
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
Ashley Simpson
