I woke up this morning feeling old . . .

Well yesterday was the BIG 22 and I must say I feel decrepit, as of late I am finding out people really do read this piece of self important crap , so maybe I should start to vent more often

Anyhow once again rather then unleash my thoughts upon this poor keyboard and risk being crucified or made to feel like a horrible person ( One and the same in this instance) for being honest and using this as a safe outlet for my emotions I will post some lyrics to songs that I feel better describe what i am going through rather then bring unnecessary drama upon myself I will just stick to posting lyrics about the aforementioned issue because I think each song will speak to the person its supposed to and only that individual will know what it means



Like a Star- Corinne Bailey Rae Lyrics
Just like a star across my sky
Just like an angel off the page
You have appeared to my life
Feel like I'll never be the same
Just like a song in my heart
Just like oil on my hands
Only to love you
Still i wonder why it is
I don't argue like this
With anyone but you
We do it all the time
Blowing out my mind
You've got this look i can't describe
You make me feel like I'm alive
When everything else is au fait
Without a doubt you're on my side
Heaven has been away too long
Can't find the words to write this song
Oh...Your love
Still i wonder why it is
I don't argue like this,With anyone but you
We do it all the time,Blowing out my mind
I have come to understand
The way it is, It's not a secret anymore,'cause we've been through that before
From tonight I know that you're the only one
I've been confused and in the dark
Now I understand,I wonder why it is
I don't argue like this
With anyone but you
I wonder why it is
I wont let my guard down
To anyone but you
We do it all the time
Blowing out my mind
Just like a star across my sky
Just like an angel off the page
You have appeared to my life
Feel like I'll never be the same
Just like a song in my heart
Just like oil on my hands

Why Did you mess with Forever? John Mayer( Not everything about this song applies but its the same general sentiment)(plus had to throw this one in because you are so fond of him)
I came by to get my things
Thank you for getting the door
But I don't feel right walking in no more
You think it's cold I did my crying at home
But I'm numb now, I'm numb now
Before I'm on my way
I've one more thing to ask
Was it worth the price you paid
For my never coming back
Why did you mess with forever?
Such a long time to be unkind
Why did you mess with forever?
Don't you call me cruel
Cruel's what you're making me do
I stick to my rules I'm at odds with me now
So stay, don't go ahead and stay
Before I'm on my way
I've one more thing to ask
Was it worth the price you paid
For my never coming back
Why did you mess with forever?
Such a long time to be unkind
Why did you mess with forever?
You asked to kiss me once goodbye
But you already did
On somebody else's lips
Tell the tiny chemicals
The ones you hold responsible
They lost me
YOU lost me
Now everything inside me tells me I should run to you and throw my arms around you
Hold your steamin,crying cheek against my own and tell you nothing's wrong
But wrong is what you were when you forgot that
We were going on
We were going on
We were going on
Tell me why did you, why did you mess with forever?
What a long time be unkind
Why did you mess with forever?


Waiting in Vain- Bob Marley
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
From the very first time I blessed my eyes on you, girl
My heart says, "Follow through."
But I know now that I'm way down on your line
But the waiting feel is fine
So don't treat me like a puppet on a string'
Cause I know how to do my thing
Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb I wanna know when you're gonna come
See, I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
'Cause it's summer is here
I'm still waiting there
Winter is here and I'm still waiting there
Like I said,It's been three years since I'm knocking on your door
And I still can knock some more
Ooh, girl, ooh, girl
Is it feasible, I wanna know now
For I to knock some more?
Ya see, in life I know there's lots of grief
But your love is my relief
Tears in my eyes burn
Tears in my eyes burn while I'm waiting
While I'm waiting for my turn.
See, I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
Oh, I don't wanna,
I don't wanna
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
No, I don't wanna, I don't wanna
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
I don't wanna wait in vain.
It's your love that I'm waiting on
It's my love that you're running from.

And to finish off Some of the simplistic lyrical genius that is Citizen Cope

My Way Home
Sometimes I miss a step
I stumble here and there
I'm findin' my way home
If I'm lost then I'll admit
Sometimes i plain forget
I'm findin' my way home
You can try and stand in my way
You can say what you're gonna say
But I'm finding my way home

Sideways
You know it ain't easy
For these thoughts here to leave me
There's no words to describe it
In French or in English
Well, diamonds they fade
And flowers they bloom
And I'm telling you
These feelings won't go away
They've been knockin' me sideways
They've been knockin' me out lately
Whenever you come around me
These feelings won't go away
They've been knockin' me sideways
I keep thinking in a moment that
Time will take them away
But these feelings won't go away. . .
