Favorite Song(s)- Slide, Iris, Name, Black Balloon, Before it’s too late, Here is gone, Let Love In, Big Machine

Favorite Album- Dizzy up the girl

Favorite Lyrics- “What you feel is what you are and what you are is beautiful.”

“I’ll become what you became to me.”

“And even though the moment passed me by, i still can’t turn away. Cause all the dreams you never thought you’d lose got tossed along the way. Letters that you never meant to send get lost and thrown away.Scars are souveiners you never lose, the past is never far. Did you lose yourself somewhere out there? Did you get to be a star? Don’t it make it sad to know that life is more than who we are? ”

“We grew up way too fast and now there’s nothing to believe, and re-runs all become our history. A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio and I won’t tell no one your name.”

“You and I got something but it’s all and then its nothing to me. And I got my defenses when it comes to your intentions to me. And we wake up in the breakdown of the things we never thought we could be.”

“When everything feels like the movies, you bleed just to know you’re alive.”

“Love and sex and lonliness, take what’s yours and leave the rest. So i’ll survive, god it’s good to be alive.”

“No one is as lucky as us, we’re not at the end oh but we’ve already won.”

“How did we get here? I used to know you so well.”

“If its not real and you can’t hold it in your hand, you can’t feel it with you heart, then I won’t believe it. But if its true and you can see it with your eyes oh even in the dark, then that’s where i want to be.”

“And I will crawl, theres things that aren’t worth giving up I know.
But I won’t let this get me I will fight.
You live the life you’re given with the storms outside somedays all I do is watch the sky.”

“At Cavanaugh Park
Where I used to sit all alone in the dark
And dream about things that I cannot say
you always said destiny’d blow me away
and nothing’s gonna blow me away

At Cavanaugh Park
Where you used to take me to play in the sand
And said to me, “Son, one day you’ll be a man
And men can do terrible things.”
Yes they can”

“Some things never do change”

“I have this dreams in them I learn to play guitar. Maybe cross the country, become a rock star. And there was hope in me that I could take you there, but damnit you’re so young. Well I don’t think I care, and if i hurt you then I’m sorry. Please don’t think that this was easy.”

Seen live? yes, twice and both times were amazing!!!

If anyone saw the Bill O’Reilly-Obama interview today, you know how fucking awesome Obama is. He handles everything with such poise and grace. I loved the way he laughed off every ridiculous comment made by Bill and answered every question cool calm and collected.

If only there had been some democratic propaganda spreading asshole reporter who spewed half as much hate as O’Reilly does when Bush was president. The man couldn’t put a sentence together when he was not under attack so I can’t imagine the shit show that would have ensued had he been under fire from an ignorant reporter (but that wouldn’t be possible since all ignorant, propaganda spreading, hate spewing people typically lean to the far right.)

O’Reilly even had the nerve to interupt the President of the United States…that is so unbelievably unprofessional. If only people who watch FOXnews were capable of taking their heads out of O’Reilly and Becks asses for 5 seconds, they’d see that people like them are ruining this country.

That is all.

Oh and just for good measure…Sarah Palin sucks.

Day 2/30 - Say Anything

Favorite Song(s)- I Want To Know Your Plans, Woe, Alive With the Glory of Love, Hate Everyone, Eloise, Crush’d, Cemetery, The Truth is You Should Lie With Me, About Falling

Favorite Album- Say Anything

Favorite Lyrics- “I want to know your plans, and how involved in them I am. You’re what keeps me believing the worlds not gone dead. Strength in my bones, put the words in my head. When they pour out to paper, they’re all for you. Cause that’s what you do.”

“Should they catch us and dispatch us to those separate work camps,
I’ll dream about you. I will not doubt you with the passing of time (oh yeah)
Should they kill me, your love will fill me, as warm as the bullets (yeah)
I’ll know my purpose. This war was worth this. I won’t let you down.”

“You took the world from me”

“If you want, then when we die
We’ll ascend to some place way up high
The gate will show you through
If they ask me, I’m with you
And I’ll face the one who made
My disgusting heart from a lump of clay
When he asks what got me through
When he asks me, it was you”

“Where those who bearing bodies in their barrels of fun
will be marched through museums that display what they’ve done.
They`ll be shot up through the sky by a cannon of sin
who will reluctantly let them in.”

“And as i drive tonight, the west coast guy is daring me to try. I feel alive tonight the possibility that I’m your guy…We should make a verbal agreement to only kiss each other!”

And the entire song of Hate Everyone because that is my anthem.

(And a million others but I need to show some restraint here)

Seen live?- Yes! Finally saw them live in Nov 2010 at Starland Ballroom and they were amazingggg!

“Forget all the reasons why it won’t work and believe in the one reason why it will.”

No. Just no. This quote is completely stupid in every single way. If there are SEVERAL reasons why something won’t work and ONE reason why it might work, that means it is most likely not going to fucking work! Don’t believe me? Take this philosophy and apply it to anything practical in life.

If you decide you want to get a running start off your roof and fly to the mall, and you forget all the reasons why it won’t work (i.e humans are incapable of flying on their own, it is scientifically impossible to take flight, you would need much more speed to go ANY distance than a running start) and focus on the one reason why it might (i.e a tornado happens to be near and the wind carries you) ….you will end up paralyzed or dead.

Using this philosophy in a relationship is the leading cause of the horrendous “relationships” you see playing out in sad lyrics statuses on Facebook. For instance, Jill is dating John.

Reasons why Jill & Johns relationship WON’T work:

1. John is a scumbag

2. John is serving a prison sentence

3. John cares about drugs and alcohol more than he cares about Jill

4. John has no ambition to turn his life around

Reason why Jill & John’s relationship WILL work:

1. Jill is happy when she talks to John

That one reason does not fucking matter in the grand scheme of things. You need to look at the big picture in a relationship. There are many, many factors that go into having a good relationship. So girls who live by this quote, you might want to focus on those other reasons or you will end up being miserable. And if you want to apply this quote to relationships then fine, whatever, i can’t change your mind…but for gods sake at least let me give you a ride to the mall.
