and I've won hundreds at the track,
but I'm not betting on the afterlife.

Then you kiss his lips,
he forgives you for it,
he forgives you for all you've done.
But not me, I'm still angry.

Let's pretend that everybody here wants peace

What are you changing?
Who do you think you're changing?
You can't change things,
We're all stuck in our ways.

I'd rather be lonely,
I'd rather be free,
I'm as sure as the moon rolls around the sea.

Because I can't remember why I hated you,
I can't remember why I still do.

And it's a surefire bet I'm going to die,
so I'm taking up praying on Sunday nights
and it's not that I believe in your almight,
but I might as well, as insurance or bail.

It's just you and God,
but what if God's not there?

Nothing is ever as good as it was
And what's good for your soul
will be bad on your nerves if you reverse it.

Are we killing time,
Are we killing each other?

When you're kissing someone who's too much like you,
it's like kissing on a mirror.

This is no great illusion,
when I'm with you I'm looking for a ghost,
or an invisible reason to fall out of love.

You are what you love,
and not what loves you back.-

-That's why I'm here on your doorstep,
pleading for you to take me back

And the phone is a fine invention,
it allows me to talk endlessly to you
about nothing disguising my intentions,
which I'm afraid my friend are wildly untrue.

But mostly I'm a hypocrite,
I sing songs about the deficit,
but when I sell out and leave Omaha, what will I get?

Reputation's changeable,
situation's tolerable,
baby, you're adorable.

I'm so tired of being lonely,
I still have some love to give,
won't you show me that you really care?

I've been uptight and made a mess,
I'll clean it up myself I guess,
Oh, the sweet smell of success,
handle me with care.

It'll take a lifetime to clear your name,
under the bridge of fame it's always nighttime.

I've gone and quit my worshipping
of the false Gods and golden sins.

"I've realized why I cannot fly",
said the bird with the broken wing.
"Though my lift is gone, my voice is strong,
and I can still sing."

And we've been up all night,
and our eyes are tired,
but now's there's light enough to see.
So if I leave right now,
would you come with me?

I didn't get what I want,
so I just took what wanted me.

We're like the places you just never see,
You read about them, you know you'd love them,
That's how you fell in love with me.

I head that we could be fulfilled,
like fireflies in a steel mill.

Would you come home, baby, if I took it all back?
Because I can take it all back.

Should we turn our tales and flee,
or should we just sit tight and breathe deep?

And that's just how I feel,
now that we've started to reveal,
all the things I thought I lost,
and the hard times I concealed.

And that's just how I know,
how I felt the solid glow,
how I felt the bitter cold.

I'm not going home,
sometimes you just wouldn't dare,
sometimes you can't go home,
sometimes, you're already there,
when I look at you, I'm there.

And it's true, I don't remember you,
But I'd believe you if you'd say that we've met

It was love to us, it was all that we had ,
and there's just days when you break the best thing you had.
And I still call it love, for now, it's the closest I've come

And I don't know where I'm going to,
when I get there, i'll send for you.
And I'll know when i see it,
but be patient, I swear I'll come through.

But your heart, I didn't break it,
No, it was taken from you years ago.

You're still as sad as you ever were.

And these tales, well they're not meant to,
but it's time that we make them come true.

 I'm on the left. :)))))

And the moon makes me sad,
for the love that we had,
It was you who did me good.

We'll stay up until we see the sun.

And love would feel brand new,
just like old times.

And I didn't hold you the day you cried.

Well, this is not a good sign,
You don't know when, but you're running out of time
and then the life that you had and your heart
Well, it passed on before you fell apart.

And you thought you'd live forever,
but you're not so sure today.

You've got to learn to lie to make everyone happy.
and you're going to have to cry to make it on your own.

But I can't see you now, put down your hands
no, I can't feel you now, give me your hands
Because I've been waiting as long as I can stand
so if you ever need someone, I'll be your man.

Her smile, it is the ocean, crashing on my eyes
her arms, they are the oak trees, and she's reaching for the sky
and she's the lake under the moon,
I've seen her twinkling the whole night through
and you know, something must be changing,
'cause I've seen a rainbow.

Lovely sites: Katie, Kaitlin, Jordyn, and Betty.

I will wait for you,
but please come soon.

Cryptic words meander,
Now there is a song beneath the song.
One day you'll learn,
You'll soon discern its true meaning.

There were always people there.
Maybe it was the music we played on the record player,
Or that everyone seemed so glad.

And those were the times, the quietest days
We'll sit and smile and remember
Nothing could feel the same
We were so free,
We were in each passing second.



And you can't sustain anything,
 everything must change.

 You're leaning down, gently you say "I want to leave"
Sure you can go but then you will sleep alone, 

 And don't expect too much, okay?
Cause the best, the worst might have passed anyway
And like the light house we watched it spin 'round and 'round
There's just some things, they aren't meant to touch the ground.

 And it's the subtle laugh that will keep ringing
And what was overlooked could now have meaning

There's no burden that will agonize you
No worry that will weigh you down
Not the memories that hypnotize you
You won't turn around.

A regret, it's undetectable
It's a shy display, nonemotional
It's a siren, barely audible
But it's all right.


Katie, or drivewayromace__quotes took this picture. More of her photography can be found here.The girl in the picture, Kaitlin, is neato__quotes. They are both lovely friends of mine.

I'm afraid my heart, it beats too slow
Or that I died and just didn't know
Or of a fate I will have to choose
And I'm afraid of how much I love you

It's just now that I've found a place where I can breathe.
It's just now that I've found a place where I can sleep.

And I still remember songs, pianos sing along
And the coloured sounds of spring, its harmony
Do you still remember?
Fireflies, four-leaf clovers, fingerpainted skin
Where life was a reaction,
And love was just laughing with a friend

 Flashlights under covers,
Raindrops on my tongue,
When life had no distractions,
And love wasn't hurting anyone.

 We'll bathe in rose petals, red
And lie in violet lilac beds
And through the darkness of the night,
We'll watch our future shining bright.

And out of everyone I've met,
It's you I can't forget.

And there was a time my heart was aching,
Yes there was the day I swore it was breaking,
Under a lucky star our love was born brand new.

And in the shadows of the night,
I'll trace your silhouette in candlelight.
And if you fall asleep when you rise,
I'll be there to kiss your eyes.

 So don't cry, Angel,
I will stay the whole night through
Forevermore, I'll be loving you.

You'll dream of a love that made you feel more alive

Do yourself a favor and check out these people: Katie, Kaitlin, Jordyn, & Betty. They all have wonderfully beautiful sites with icons, pictures, and quotes. & they're all great friends of mine. Also check out A Secret A Day.

All the quotes you see on this website are song lyrics. Each post is themed with a different band. You can find out the band and album by looking at Currently Listening.

Also, I may tweak some of the lyrics in order to reshape them into quotes. Consequently, the comments that consist of "The lyrics are really 'so and so'." Thank you, and I appreciate your help, but they are changed for a reason.

Thanks again, everyone. Here we go:

If you want to hold on to the first girl that you meet,
or if you want to settle down & plant roses at my feet,
go ahead.

I used to believe in a lot more,
now I just see straight ahead.

It's not to say I don't have good times,
but as for my days, I spend them waiting. 

and so it seems,
that you've grown up and over me.

and it's just my heart gets rejected by my veins.

and sometimes planes, they smash up in the sky.
and sometimes lonely hearts, they just get lonelier.

I'm a modern girl, but I fold in half so easily.

These are times that can't be weathered.

August, I'll see you soon,
under yellow moons,
where I'll gather whats left of you.

someday, we'll meet beyond the stars.

there's something in your eyes,
or was it that you lied,
you told me not to take it to heart.

If you think you're bulletproof, you're right.

Please, be kind, don't drop the rock on me,
don't go outside and discover that you like being free,
because if you did, I'd be droppping the rock on me.

and how do you do it? you make it seem delicate
when it's all the stupid things so damn confusing to me
like saying please forgive me,
for laughing at your jokes.

I have no idea what's going on lately,
and I just wish you would come over and explain things.

Let's try a new change, then we'll go back to the old one,
like we've done so many times before.

I've just begun a new phase,I'm trying these days,
I've watched you close, I'm versed in all your ways.
I'm just beginning to realize, I'll get you one of these days.

Something is changing inside of me,
colors seem darker in light.
and I don't know what that means,
but it's not a good sign.

I'm not that basic, I swear.

Judging from picture books,
apparently, heaven is a partly-cloudy place.

I should have known,
With a boy like you,
Your middle name is always,
I'd always love you.

And how long will it last,
before we go insane?

For the rest of my life,
I'm going to search for someone just like you.
