Song That Popped Into My Head For No Reason I Can Think Of

Sorry about ending the title with a preposition. I was brushing my teeth earlier and this song just popped into my head. I haven't listened to that Get Up Kids album in like a year so I have no idea where it came from. I just found myself singing the first line of the song out of nowhere. I'm not upset about it or anything, it's one of my favorite Get Up Kids songs, but it's just weird. So weird in fact that I actually had to dig the CD out because I don't have that album ripped onto my computer.


Don't Hate Me

Forgive me for running off to find the one thing I have to do.
Each night you can fall asleep assured that someday I’ll be coming home to you.
These constant reminders in everything I see.
The chance of a lifetime…what a great place to be.

Oh Amy, don’t hate me, for running away from you.
Oh Amy, don’t hate me. 'Cause I’m still in love with you!

I’m sorry I can’t be everything to you.
Your place is at the heart of what I do.
Everything’s for you.

Oh Amy, don’t hate me, for running away from you.
Oh Amy, don’t hate me. 'Cause I’m still in love with you!
Oh Amy, Oh Amy!
Oh Amy, Oh Amy!
Oh Amy, don’t hate me. 'Cause I’m still in love with you!

Every time I run away, it’s easier to stay.
At the heart, the heart is you in everything I do.
Every time I run away, it’s easier to stay.
At the heart, the heart is you in everything I do.


Also, I'm rereading High Fidelity for, like, the 15th time.

Sometimes The Radio Makes Me Happy

For some reason this song always makes me happy. I don't know why - it's not like it's a happy song. I think it just makes me nostalgic. I heard this and "Interstate Love Song" on the radio while driving home from work. It's hard to not love the mid to late 90s.



When I was young and knew everything
And she a punk who rarely ever took advice
Now Im guilt stricken,
Sobbing with my head on the floor
Stop a babys breath and a shoe full of rice

I cant be held responsible
Cause she was touching her face
I wont be held responsible
She fell in love in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and
Wed never comprimise
For the life of me cannot believe
Wed ever die for these sins
We were merely freshman

My best friend took a weeks
Vacation to forget her
His girl took a weeks worth of
Valium and slept
Now hes guilt stricken sobbing with his
Head on the floor
Thinks about her now and how he never really
Wept he says

Weve tried to wash our hands of all of this
We never talk of our lacking relationships
And how were guilt stricken sobbing with our
Heads on the floor
We fell through the ice when we tried not to
Slip, wed say

iTunes on Random

Something - The Beatles
Something in the way she moves
Attracts me like no other lover
Something in the way she woos me

- really random. this song has little to no meaning in my life right now.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One Week - Barenaked Ladies
It's been one week since you looked at me
Cocked your head to the side and said "I'm angry"



- a little more apt for a friend of mine than myself. relationships don't always go the way we plan, huh?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Right on Time - O.A.R.
I've been talking to the Moon all night, but the Stars won't say nothing to me.
And though I feel it's easy for a man to grow up
Much harder for a man to grow out.
You may not appear, but I'm standing here My God.
I'll never ask you.
....
It's crazy that we just can't feel the time
And lay down for awhile.
And let life catch your eye.

- this is going well. life always seems really busy lately, but sometimes
when i'm taking the time to relax i kind of feel like i'm just spinning my wheels.
and that reminds me - i need to buy tickets to see O.A.R. in November at the Cains
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Fa Fa - Guster

When you look in the mirror, wish you were somebody else
Just a perfect reflection, you and no one else
Minutes run into hours, hours run into days


- huh. it's like every morning. or at least, some mornings.

--------------------------------------------------------

Landed - Ben Folds

The daily dramas
She made from nothing
So nothing ever made it right

She liked to push me
And talk me back down
'Till i believed I was the crazy one
And in a way
I guess I was

- like i said, relationships are pretty fucked up sometimes. but you get over them.
sometimes you imagine what your life would be like if you had never been in it, but
that's pretty futile. you learn to accept the parts that were your fault and stop caring
about the parts that weren't.


that's enough i think. i don't really even know what i'm talking about - but in a good way.
i'm fairly content right now.

Some Songs

set out on the voyage of the conquering fools
looking for the gold and the modern day jewels
it come to pass what was stuck in my head
if i didn't quit on looking then i'm probably dead

i hit the road and i rolled up north
looking for the origin, the place of my birth
i didn't notice when i ran a red sign
hoping that everything would really be fine
uh huh huh

people come and people go
but they never know what is going on
so they gotta try to be what they wanna be
what the hell is happening to me

i hit the road and i rolled up north
looking for the origin, the place of my birth
i didn't notice when i ran a red sign
hoping that everything would really be fine
i set out about an hour ago
looking for some gold, said hey oh
then i went down looking for the big
the big brass show
so i went and then he started to go
walking down the same old, same old road
thinking to myself, this is quite a struggle
what can i gotta do tomorrow
gonna find that gold
and conquer me some fools
hey hey, hey oh

conquering fools
conquering fools
conquer some fools
hey we're conquering fools
-------------------------------------------------------

Light
And day
Is more than you’ll say
Cause all
My Feelings
Are more
Than I can let by
Or not
More than you’ve got
Just follow the day
Follow the day and reach for the SUN!
You don’t see me fly into the red one more you’re done
Just follow the seasons and find the time
Reach for the bright side
You don’t see me fly into the red one more you’re nuts
Just follow the day
Follow the day and reach for the SUN!
Just follow the day
Follow the day and reach for the SUN!
You don’t see me fly into the red – one more you’re done
Just follow the seasons and find the time
Reach for the bright side
You don’t see me fly into the red – one more you’re nuts
Just follow the day
Follow the day and reach for the SUN!
Just follow the day
Follow the day and reach for the SUN!
Just follow the day
Follow the day and reach for the SUN!
----------------------------------------------------------------------


SUN
Take some time, get away
SUN
Suicide is a shame
SUN
Soon you’ll find your own way
SUN
Hope as come, you are safe
And it makes me cry
Because I’m on my way
On my way
On my way
Hey, it’s the sun and it makes me shine
Hey, it’s the sun and it makes me shine
Hey now it’s the sun and it makes me shine
SUN
Soon you’ll be okay
SUN
Soon you’ll be okay
And it makes me smile
Because I’m on my way
Hey, it’s the sun and it makes me shine
Hey, it’s the sun and it makes me shine
Hey, it’s the sun and it makes me shine
Hey now it’s the sun and it makes me smile
All around
Hey now it’s the sun and it makes me smile
All around, all around!
Ba dada ba da
(Ba dada ba da switches to the background)
Hey now it’s the sun and it makes me smile
All around
Hey now it’s the sun and it makes me smile
All around, all around!
Ba dada ba da

How many special people change
How many lives are living strange
Where were you when we were getting high?
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannon ball
Where were you while we were getting high?

Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova in the sky
Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova
A champagne supernova in the sky

Wake up the dawn and ask her why
A dreamer dreams she never dies
Wipe that tear away now from your eye
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannon ball
Where were you when we were getting high?

Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova in the sky
Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova
A champagne supernova in the sky

Cos people believe that they're
Gonna get away for the summer
But you and I, we live and die
The world's still spinning round
We don't know why
Why, why, why, why

How many special people change
How many lives are living strange
Where were you when we were getting high?
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannon ball
Where were you while we were getting high?

Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova in the sky
Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova
A champagne supernova in the sky

Cos people believe that they're
Gonna get away for the summer
But you and I, we live and die
The world's still spinning round
We don't know why
Why, why, why, why

How many special people change
How many lives are living strange
Where were you when we were getting high?
We were getting high
We were getting high
We were getting high
We were getting high
