Walk On By, She's a Red Star - A Song Lyrics Blog Posting

Honestly, do I need a true reason to post why I feel the need to post there lyrics? Third Eye Blind is back and this is their first new song in what feels like forever. It is absolutely amazing and I suggest people give them a listen again...even if they never listened to them back in the late 90s and early 00s.

Third Eye Blind
- Red Star

The police high beam froze her perfect face
In white glow for a while
The politic bureau's on high alert
And her name showed up on file
There's trouble with their war effort
And she's been speaking out
Checkpoint Charlie's radioing in
She's compromised in doubt
There's trouble with their war effort and she's crossed the party line
You were so pretty in the days you spoke your mind

You were so pretty oh
And you were so pretty oh oh
Hiding out

The files have been filled
The regime won't be undermined
You were so pretty in the days you spoke your mind

Quiet now don't make a sound
The system shut us down now we find each other in the underground
She had the voice once of the people now
She's timid as a mouse
I would kiss you on the mouth in a safe house

Because you were so pretty, oh, hiding out, hiding out
You were so pretty oh hiding out, hiding out
walk on by, we're hiding out, hiding out
Walk on by, she's a red star, she's a red star

Tell me how did you let them in
We were silent secret agents
But the resistance is wearing thin
Dissent is now illegal
She must pay the consequence
In this thriller mystery baby
You are my suspense

Because you were so pretty yeah, hiding out, hiding out
You were so pretty oh hiding out, hiding out
Walk on by, hiding out, hiding out
Walk on by she's a red star
She's a red star
You've gone so far (she's a red star) don't back down now
You've gone (red star) so far don't back down now
You've gone so far, don't back down now
You've gone so far, don't back down now

The Last Blog That I Will Ever Write About a Girl

Lying next to me, fast asleep, is the most amazing person that I have ever met in this world. When I say amazing, I honestly mean AMAZING. I never ever thought that I would meet a girl with her charm, her humor, her emotion, her passion, her drive, her desire, her intelligence, her smile, her style, her wit, and to be superficial for a moment, her looks. She is the most beautiful girl, inside and out. As beautiful as her eyes are, as gracious as her smile is, it is the fact that she is genuine and her loving heart has made me fall in love with her. I really consider myself to be the luckiest person alive to have the opportunity to go to sleep next to her, wake up next to her, play video games with her, have deep talks with her, watch movies with her, go to playgrounds at night with her, lose track of time watching starry night skies with her, and just being in her life in general. I have known her for almost a year now, but we've only recently had the chance to get to know each other better. Everything that I have seen so far, everything that I have learned about her so far, I absolutely love. She doesn't try to be perfect. She just tries to be herself, and I love that. Our friendship has a strong foundation in honesty, and I believe that to be the best building blocks to a relationship that will surely start in the future.

I am in love with you Ashlee Whinery. I don't care who knows. I don't care who may be offended. I don't care who may be hurt. The world deserves to know that I found my happiness in you. I found myself again with you. I forgot how much fun I could be, how carefree, how open minded, how free spirited. You bring out the best in me. In return, I will always give you the best of me. I don't want this to only work for a year or two. I can honestly see myself growing old with you, teaching in the same school, working the same schedule, seeing the world together, having a family together. You are everything I've ever wanted and everything I never thought I'd find. I am so lucky you are in my life and I will be everything you've ever wanted...which is myself.

I love you baby. You're my everything. You're my only thing. Together, we truly are invincible. And this is for real.

"(6789:10) will be the beginning of forever"

Baby, Help Me Find The 4 Bananas

Has anybody else ever been woken up to this quote? Well, Ashlee woke me up today with it when she was searching for bananas in an ISpy video game. I found 3 of them, so I'm not too sure where there fourth one was.

EDIT: Ashlee just told me it was by the monkey. Who would have thought...a monkey with a banana.

Ashlee-ism - Lice or Eyebrows

Ashlee, awoken from her 2.54 hour nap, asked me a simple question.

"What would you rather have, your eyebrow shaved off or lice?"

Ashlee wants lice so she can call out of work.
She believes that you can put a band aid over the missing eyebrow. Now she wants me to get an ace bandage and wrap it around my head because then nobody would know I was missing an eyebrow.

She believes lice is an acceptable excuse to miss work. People will think you look ridiculous with only one eybrow, unless the seperation of a tri-brow turned three eyebrows into a resonable two eyebrows.

She is very intelligent. I am not being sarcastic. And that's not sarcastic. And neither was that. Or that. Yeah...I think I am just going to stop typing. She's pointing a Wii remote at me.

Feel free to comment your answers.

When We'll Be Lovers, Lovers At Last - A Song Lyrics Blog Posting

I Will Possess Your Heart by Death Cab For Cutie

How I wish you could see the potential.
The potential of you and me.
It's like a book elegantly bound,
But in a language that you can't read just yet.

You gotta spend some time, love.
You gotta spend some time with me.
And I know that you'll find love.
I will possess your heart.

You gotta spend some time, love.
You gotta spend some time with me.
And I know that you'll find love.
I will possess your heart.

There are days when outside your window,
I see my reflection as I slowly pass.
And I long for this mirrored perspective,
When we'll be lovers, lovers at last.

You gotta spend some time, love.
You gotta spend some time with me.
And I know that you'll find love.
I will possess your heart.

You gotta spend some time, love.
You gotta spend some time with me.
And I know that you'll find love.
I will possess your heart.

I will possess your heart.
I will possess your heart.

You reject my advances and desperate pleas.
I won't let you, let me down so easily, so easily.

You gotta spend some time, love.
You gotta spend some time with me.
And I know that you'll find love.
I will possess your heart.

You gotta spend some time, love.
You gotta spend some time with me.
And I know that you'll find love.
I will possess your heart.

You gotta spend some time, love.
You gotta spend some time with me.
And I know that you'll find love.
I will possess your heart.
I will possess your heart.
I will possess your heart.

I Watch Frozen Stars On The Way Back Home - A Song Lyrics Blog Posting

That Is Why by Say Anything

Today I sat and smoked myself to cancer
Thinking about the dancer at the bar
Well how was I to know
That a crush could just implode
'Til it became a grudge eclipsing every star

And yes I know my addictions run the gamut
The drugs, the smokes, the booze, the 24
But you can't make the turkey colder
Or skew me less bipolar
Let me list the things about you I abhor

Horrible, you're...
So easy, talk sleezy
You led me off the plank and left me queasy
And that is why
You can't rock my world

You swore that you were taken when I met you
But yes you did undress me from afar
A genteel concubine
You skip amongst the mines
Just a product of the endless empty grind

You lack the curves that prove a proper lady
A slender slave with sluttish, sleepy eyes
Though once I was emoting
And Bono lyric quoting
I have found another be my guest and die

With starry eyes, she's...
Warm-glancing, entrancing
And now I'm through with all your sick, sad ranting
And that is why
You can't rock my world

I've lost you
And now I glide through the silky sky
It's so blue
And you're just old news
That is why
You're so screwed
Cadaver gone blue
This has died
Your machine has grown gangrene
And now I see right through your lies

With...
Ripe wonder, I plunder
Your village now that I know that I've become her
And that is why
You can't rock my
That is why
That is why
You'll never ever in a god damn millennium
Be my girl

I watch frozen stars on the way home
I watch frozen stars on the way back home
I watch frozen stars on the way home
I watch frozen stars burn out on the way back home

There Was This One Time When Dracula Gave Me Fifty Bucks

I remember once in Canada, I put my last quarter into a Dracula slot machine, and I won fifty bucks. Thanks, Dracula!

Round Here, She's Always On My Mind - A Song Lyrics Blog Posting

Today marks the first day where I will be posting song lyrics to a song that I have either been listening to a lot at the time of the posting, or a song I can relate to at the time. I will always choose a lyric from the song that sticks out to me as the title of the blog, which in this case is "She’s Always On My Mind". Anyways, I just recently got into Counting Crows after about a year after I’ve been saying I wanted to. Their album "August And Everything After" is absolutely amazing. The song which I posted the lyrics for just has this special meaning to me for some reason. I guess we’ve all just felt like this at some point. Apparently, I am feeling like it now. One of my all-time favorite songs, hands down. Read and enjoy. Of course, if you want the song, hit me up with a Myspace message.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Round Here by Counting Crows

Step out the front door like a ghost
Into the fog where no one notices
The contrast of white on white.

And in between the moon and you
Angels get a better view
Of the crumbling difference between wrong and right.

I walk in the air between the rain,
Through myself and back again.
Where? I don’t know

Maria says she’s dying.
Through the door, I hear her crying
Why? I don’t know

Round here we always stand up straight
Round here something radiates

Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
She said she’d like to meet a boy who looks like Elvis
She walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land
Just like she’s walking on a wire in the circus
She parks her car outside of my house and
Takes her clothes off,
Says she’s close to understanding Jesus
She knows she’s more than just a little misunderstood
She has trouble acting normal when she’s nervous

Round here we’re carving out our names
Round here we all look the same
Round here we talk just like lions
But we sacrifice like lambs
Round here she’s slipping though my hands

Oh, Sleeping children better run like the wind
Out of the lightning dream
Mama’s little baby better get herself in
Out of the lightning

She says, "It’s only in my head."
She says, "Shhh...I know it’s only in my head."

But the girl on the car in the parking lot
Says: "Man, you should try to take a shot
Can’t you see my walls are crumbling?"

Then she looks up at the building
And says she’s thinking of jumping.
She says she’s tired of life
She must be tired of something.

Round here she’s always on my mind
Round here, Hey man, I got lots of time
Round here we’re never sent to bed early
And nobody makes us wait
Round here we stay up very very very very late

I... I can’t see nothing, nothing
Round here
(Ya) Catch me if I’m falling
(Ya) Catch me if I’m falling
(Will’ya) Catch me ’cause I’m falling down on you

I said I’m under the gun
Round here
Oh man, I said I’m under the gun
Round here
I can’t see nothing, nothing
Round here

May The Blogging Begin!

Hello all! Yeah, I know it has been a long time since I have been blogging. But I think the time has come for the blog to make a comeback...mine at least. I am going to try and write a bunch of stuff in here. I am going to write my feelings on life and the world, original or famous song lyrics from songs I have been listening to at the time, YouTube videos, etc. Anything and everything will be in my blogs future. So stay tuned!

EDIT - It’s actually been over a year since I blogged. Unacceptable!
