Middle of Nowhere 20 months ago

Middle of Nowhere by Hot Hot Heat

Don’t get mad if I’m laughing
Blame the caffeine for all the 5 am phone calls
I haven’t slept a single night in over a month
And not even once did you start to make sense to me
Well maybe I’m a little bit slow,
Or just consistently inconsistent
She said, “Unpredictability’s my responsibility, baby.”

But you’re waiting at the door
Where everybody’s hanging out
Just like they hung out before
You didn’t have to do it but you did it to say
That you didn’t have to do it but you would anyway

To give you something to go on
When I go off back to the middle of nowhere
To give you something to go on
When I go off back to the middle of nowhere

They chewed me up and then they spit me out
And I’m not supposed to let it bother me
But maybe I’m a little bit weak
I let my frailty take the wheel
She said, “Maybe there’s a bit of me
Waiting for a bit of you. baby.”

But you’re waiting at the door
Where everybody’s hanging out
Just like they hung out before
You didn’t have to do it but you did it to say
That you didn’t have to do it but you would anyway

To give you something to go on
When I go off back to the middle of nowhere
To give you something to go on
When I go off back to the middle of nowhere
But you’re waiting at the door
Where everybody’s hanging out
Just like they hung out before
You didn’t have to do it but you did it to say
That you didn’t have to do it but you would anyway

To give you something to go on
When I go off back to the middle of nowhere
To give you something to go on
When I go off back to the middle of nowhere



Everything 2 years ago

Everything by Michael Buble

You’re a fallen star
You’re the getaway car
You’re the line in the sand
When I go too far

You’re the swimming pool
On an August day
And you’re the perfect thing to say

And you play it coy
But it’s kinda cute
Oh when you smile at me
You know exactly what you do

Baby don’t pretend
That you don’t know it’s true
‘Cause you can see it when I look at you

And in this crazy life
And through these crazy times
It’s you, it’s you
You make me sing
You’re every line
You’re every word
You’re everything

You’re a carousel
You’re a wishing well
And you’ll hang me up
When you ring my bell
You’re a mystery
You’re from outer space
You’re every minute of my everyday

And I can’t believe that I’m your man
And I get to kiss you baby just because I can
Whatever comes our way
We’ll see it through
And you know that’s what our love can do

And in this crazy life
And through these crazy times
It’s you, it’s you
You make me sing
You’re every line
You’re every word
You’re everything

So laa, laa, laa, la, laa, la, laa

And in this crazy life
And through these crazy times
It’s you, it’s you
You make me sing
You’re every line
You’re every word
You’re everything

You’re every song
And I sing along
‘Cause you’re my everything

So laa, laa, laa, la, laa, la, laa
So laa, laa, laa, la, laa, la, la, laa, la, la, laa



Giving It Away 2 years ago

Giving It Away by Mae

By the way you brought me here, it makes believe
The best is yet to come and I don’t want to leave.
Forgive my hesitation, but I’m learning to trust in you.
Help me to dream these dreams, because I don’t have a clue.

If you’d be honest and say what you mean
You know I would promise, I’d do anything.
Because I know that without you I’m giving it away.

Is this what you wanted? Cause I’m willing to change.
Now that I’m certain that there’s much more to gain.
You’ve introduced me to the moment,
But I’m looking to stay for good.
You asked me to stay forever.
Well, you know that I would, I would do anything.

The nights are forever and maybe I’m wrong,
But it feels like I’m so lost without you.
So I step towards the heat, it’s the way I can see,
And it makes me believe that it’s you.

By the way you brought me here
It makes me believe the best is yet to come
And I don’t want to leave, I won’t, but anyway…

The nights are forever,
I can’t get to sleep cause I know there’s a reason.
I’m in this too deep,
And I’m not sure that without you,
I’m giving it away. Yeah.

Giving it away…



Give It Up 2 years ago

Give It Up by The Format

Well I made my way back down to the valley.
Right on past 83rd street.
Cause that’s where we once belonged.
But I’m gone. I swear, I’m long gone.

So give it up, throw your hats in the air.
And change just as they land you’re saying,
“We’ll get out of here.”
But something tells me that you’re too scared to go.

So the stairs that you could climb
Are the ones you’ve left behind
And your eyes light up when we talk about the past.
God, I miss those songs we used to sing;
Talking like getting away would be the greatest thing.
Well me, I got out, and you, you kept singing to me.
You think that’s really going to set this free?

So give it up, throw your hats in the air.
And change just as they land you’re saying,
“We’ll get out of here.”
But something tells me that your too scared to go.

Like a ghost, you’ve been haunting
All these dusty old roads and old homes.
The ones we swore we’d never go.

As for Joe, oh, I’ve seen him around.
Then there’s Adam, he’s afraid to go out.
I dont blame him, I just wanted to go out to eat.
Then there’s Mark, goddamn, I wish him the best,
cause we were kids back then, as if we could progress.
It’s.. sometimes I, I just can’t sleep
Thinking of all the things we could have been,
But give it up.



Hero/Heroine 2 years ago

Hero/Heroine by Boys Like Girls

It’s too late baby, there’s no turning around
I’ve got my hands in my pocket and my head in a cloud
This is how I do
When I think about you
I never thought that you could break me apart
I keep a sinister smile and a hold of my heart
You want to get inside
Then you need to get in line
But not this time

Cause you caught me off guard
Now I’m running and screaming

I feel like a hero and you are my heroine

I won’t try to philosophize
I’ll just take a deep breath and I’ll look in your eyes
This is how I feel
And its so so real
I got a closet filled up to the brim
With the ghosts of my past and the skeletons
And I don’t know why
You’d even try
But I won’t lie

You caught me off guard
Now I’m running and screaming

I feel like a hero and you are my heroine
Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?

And I feel a weakness coming on
Never felt so good to be so wrong
Had my heart all locked down
And then you turned me around
I’m feeling like a new born child
Every time I get a chance to see you smile
It’s not complicated
I was so jaded

And you caught me off guard
Now I’m running and screaming

I feel like a hero and you are my heroine
Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?

(I feel like a hero and you are my heroine)
And I feel a weakness coming on
Never felt so good to be so wrong
Had my heart on lockdown
And then you turned me around
(Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?)
I’m feeling like a new born child
Every time I get a chance to see you smile
It’s not complicated
I was so jaded

(I feel like a hero and you are my heroine)
And I feel a weakness coming on
Never felt so good to be so wrong
Had my heart on lockdown
And then you turned me around
(Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?)
I’m feeling like a new born child
Every time I get a chance to see you smile
It’s not complicated
I was so jaded



Weekend Warriors 2 years ago

Weekend Warriors by A Change Of Pace

Weekends are for the warriors
All those late nights walking through front doors at daybreak
Raise all, of the glasses high
This one’s to all of us sitting around here on Friday night
I remember eighteen
Hated Mondays
And sitting and staring at the clock dying to get away
Don’t look back
And have no regrets
We only got two days and time won’t wait for us

I couldn’t ask for a better place to be

This can’t last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn’t get much better
No better than
This can’t last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn’t get much better
No better than this

I’ve been to hell and back
All the snow storms
And the bathroom stalls which you pulled me out of
I’ll be there
Like you’ve been there
My word’s my bond
Don’t stand alone, you can count on me

I could’t ask for a better place to be

This can’t last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn’t get much better
No better than
This can’t last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn’t get much better
No better than this

We fight this fight to stay free
And never say ‘never’
If you leave this choice up to me
I’ll stay young (stay young) forever

This can’t last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn’t get much better
No better than
This can’t last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn’t get much better
No better than this

This can’t last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn’t get much better
No better than
This can’t last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn’t get much better
No better than this

This can’t last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn’t get much better
No better than
This can’t last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn’t get much better
No better than this

Weekends are for the warriors



To Kill This 2 years ago

To Kill This by This Providence

With a lack of self esteem
I walked into my teens
And six years later
I’m still frustrated
I’m still not who I want to be
And now it all comes down to
Am I treating her right?
And now it all comes down to
Am I treating her right?
Am I treating her right?

If I could just be
All that I can be for her
That’s when I’d be the man I long to be
I hate this cycle
It’s a neverending story
Of infinite last chances

And now it all comes down to
Am I treating you right?
And now it all comes down to
Am I treating you right?
Am I treating you right?
Yeah, yeah

I keep telling myself
Just grow up
But it’s so easy to say
And so much harder to do
I hear it each and every day
Just grow up
It’s the only thing left to do

It’s time to kill this
There’s no two ways about it
Ends today, right here, right now
But it’s time I learn that
It’s not a matter
Of saying the right words
Or singing the right songs

I keep telling myself
Just grow up
But it’s so easy to say
And so much harder to do
I hear it each and every day
Just grow up
It’s the only thing left to do

It’s so old but it’s not easy
To say goodbye to all this heartache
To just say no, just run away, endure pain
And suffocate every desire that hurts you

And now it all comes down to
Am I treating you right?
And now it all comes down to this
Am I treating you right?
Am I treating you right?
My words and actions don’t align
My heart is the victim of my mind

I keep telling myself
Just grow up
But it’s so easy to say
And so much harder to do
I hear it each and every day
Just grow up
It’s the only thing left to do

I keep telling myself
Just grow up
But it’s so easy to say
And so much harder to do
I hear it each and every day
Just grow up
It’s the only thing left to do



Tenth Street 2 years ago

Tenth Street by Valencia

There’s a place down on Tenth Street
Where I can go to rest my head
As I sit by the window
The city sleeps, I am home

It’s another day I’ll spend forgiving
And another night I wish I could get back
So if you’ll sit and stay and talk with me awhile
I’ll tell you to hold on
To this scene as it passes us by

Cause all of the days I wished for
Something just to begin, standing out
On top as the Philadelphia skyline caves in
Looking out from above
I’ll tell you what I really do love
I’ll let you know when I’m coming home

Cause every little thing that you said
I wish you could take back
Maybe the next time remember
Come December I wont be home
Cause I will be out on the road
To let you know, maybe one day
We can live with this and grow
Cause you know
Philadelphia makes me feel home

We can all relate to misunderstandings
We’re understanding now
With all the time it took for us to figure it out
Why can’t you see?

All of the days I wished for
Something just to begin, standing out
On top as the Philadelphia skyline caves in
Looking out, from above
I’ll tell you what I really do love
I’ll let you know
Philadelphia makes me feel home

Every little thing that you said
I wish you could take back
Maybe the next time remember
Come December I wont be home



All Of This Time 2 years ago

All Of This Time by Self Against City

Hey well, you figured me out
And that’s all right now, we got somethin to talk about
Month of September, fourth floor apartment
We were the leaves, careless and fallen
No amount of time can save us now
All of our secrets are coming out

Even though, it was perfect
You’ll just say…

That all of this time, we have been pretending
Believing our own lies, so we never have to give in

We question purity
As we dragged white sheets through the dirt of our jealousy
We’re still pretending that our hearts are mended
Safe from denial yet so offensive
So obvious we need a change
Telling the truth, it feels so strange

Even though, it was perfect
You’ll just say…

That all of this time, we have been pretending
Believing our own lies, so we never have to give in
It’s all so familiar, that I don’t remember
Where we went wrong, where did we go?

All of this time
We’ve been pretending
Believing our own lies
So we never have to give in

All of this time, we have been pretending
Believing our own lies, so we never have to give in
It’s all so familiar, that I don’t remember
Where we went wrong, where did we go wrong?
Go wrong, where did we go wrong?
