Burn The Perfect CD for EVERY mood.

Here are some lyrics I feel eveyone should know. Its Desiderata by Lazyboy TV. Enjoy!

(And I’m noticing now even before I post some of them are wrong, I’ll correct them later, You’ll get the gist though)

You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars
And you have a right to be here, and weather or not it is clear to you
No doubt the universe is unfolding as it should, therefore be at peace with god
Whatever you conceive him to be, what ever your labors and aspirations
In the noisy confusion of life, keep peace with your soul

I try to be I strive to be
All I wish to be happy
I try to be I strive to be
All I wish to be happy

Oh oh oh this is direction
Oh oh oh this is direction

As far as possible without surrender, be on good terms with all persons
Speak your truth quietly and clearly, and listen to the dull of the ignorant
They too have their stories
Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the sprit
If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter
For always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans
Keep interested in your career, however humble
It is a real possession in the forever changing fortunes of time

I try to be I strive to be
All I wish to be happy
I try to be I strive to be
All I wish to be happy

Oh oh oh this is direction
Oh oh oh this is direction

Be yourself especially do not fane affection
Nether be cynical about love
Take kindly the council of the years
Gracefully surrendering the things of youth
Nurture strength of sprit to shield you in sudden misfortune
But do not distress yourself with imaginings
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness
Beyond wholesome discipline be gentle to yourself
With wanted sham drudgery and broken dreams

I try to be I strive to be
All I wish to be happy
I try to be I strive to be
All I wish to be happy

I try to be I strive to be
All I wish to be happy
I try to be I strive to be
All I wish to be happy

Oh oh oh this is direction
Oh oh oh this is direction

Oh oh oh this is direction
Oh oh oh this is direction

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste
And remember what peace there maybe in silence

I’ll start with a bonfire CD, things like RHCP’s Road Trippin’ and José Gonzales’ Crosses.

Since I am so fascinated with love I feel it is only appropriate that it is the first mood I make a perfect CD for. I am open to any and all suggestions to great love songs. Traditional lovey dovey songs are great but I’m also interested in non-traditional as well. For example, Nine Inch Nails – Perfect Drug. Depending on how you interpret those lyrics, it is a great love song. I’ll run through my ipod and try to come up with a comprehensive list in the next day or so, which will of course have to be narrowed down to, AT MOST, two to three discs worth. MAAAAAAYBE five if it is a really really large list.

I never feel more hidious, nor more beautiful than I do with tears on my cheeks and snot in my nasal passages. In this moment, with this great joy of love I feel inside for a woman of divine perfection, let me nod my virtual head to the brilliance of the band Cake. This song has made my tears fall harder, my hands raise higher, and my smile grow wider. I hope you all enjoy Let Me Go.

when she walks
she swings her arms, instead of her hips
when she talks she moves her mouth, instead of her lips
i’ve waited for her for so long
i’ve waited for her for so long
i’ve wondered if i could hang on
i’ve wondered if i could hang on

“let me go,” she said
“let me go,” she said
let me go and i will want you more
let me go, let me go
let me go and i will want you

when she wants
she wants the sun instead of the moon
when she sees
she sees the stars inside of her room
i’ve waited for her for so long
i’ve waited for her for so long
i’ve wondered if i could hang on
i’ve wondered if i could hang on

“let me go,” she said
“let me go,” she said
let me go and i will want you more
“let me go,” she said
let me go
let me go, and i will want you

“let me go,” she said
“let me go,” she said
“let me go,” she said
let me go, let me go

I have had this song FORVER!!! Its only now I realize how very much me it really is. I hope you all enjoyw The First by Tegan & Sara.

stand up sit down baby
gonna be a formal dress down hey day
we decide why not go downtown
how about you and me we go get wasted
you’ll have, you’ll have to excuse me
please please, please excuse me
you’ll have, you’ll have to excuse me
this will be my first time
by definition from grade school to English 30
we quietly become strong so early
take it or leave it they can’t believe it
they go from kindergarten to killing sprees
they go from heartache to inner peace
100 foot ceilings 100 percent deceit
he said let’s leave this between you and me
my cats watch my stuff leave my house
between you and me the cat burglars are
what did you see what did you steal
tell me baby how does it feel
yeah how do you feel
it’s a top ten list of the things that move me the most
it’s a top ten list of the things that bother me the most
a top ten list of the things that scare me the most
I’d have to say that the future
wasting time in the fast food line
I decide to walk the fine line
and celebrate life celebrate death I choose
to celebrate the first
I celebrate the first
we decide to go out walking
the whole time that we’re talking
convinced that we’re living
the whole time that we’re dying
we decide to go out walking
the whole time that you’re talking
convinced that you’re living
the whole time that I’m dying
keeps me on my toes where did the time go
you keep me on my toes where did the time go
on the edge of town where the gravel’s thin they’re
gonna wear you down
until you’re thin and tired tired tired
of wasting time in the fast food line
I decide to walk the fine line and
celebrate life celebrate death I choose to celebrate
the first to come the first to go the first to say yes
the first to say no
I’m gonna seize this moment
the first to come the first to go the first to say yes
first to say no

Wow! This song hits home today! Here is Creep by Radiohead. (the version I have is live so lyrics may vary)

When you were here before
Couldn’t look you in the eye
You’re just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
You’re so very special
And I wish I was special

But I’m a creep, I’m a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don’t belong here.

I don’t care for love
I want to have control
I’ve got a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I’m not around
You’re so very special
I wish I was special

But I’m a creep, I’m a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don’t belong here.

She’s doesn’t love to run,
She’s doesn’t love to
run run run

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You’re so fuckin’ special
I wish I was special…

But I’m a creep, I’m a weirdo,
What the hell am I doing here?
I don’t belong here.
I don’t belong here.

I’ve had this song for sometime now, but i think today is my fragile day. I wish I could make the sun go away, I just want to lay in bed in the dark and try to “heal my broken heart.” I like that quote. This song is helping me. South’s Fragile Day

An angel lost it’s wings
Amongst the bags of things
Disclosed amounts of greed
Creep in daily

And though naive at first
You must be quick to learn
It’s not the words that hurt
so save them

Memories meant for me

Take all the time in the world
all the time you deserve
You’ll be lost but you’ll be free

Now that luck is found
Our feet wont touch the ground
Might not be first in line
Still we stand by

Cut like broken glass
Leaves splinters in our path
Been guided by your thoughts
So hold that

Memories meant for me

Take all the time in the world
all the time you deserve
You’ll be lost but you’ll be free

Take all the time in the world
all the time you deserve
You’ll be lost but you’ll be free

I wont guess forever
Given chance is slender
Forgive this fragile day
And fail to capture thoughts
The restless side has gone away
Breath out
Never forget this fragile day
Lift this fragile weight

Soul Sloshing by Venus Hum is just a fun song.

Indulging inaccuracy
I’m picking apart my friend Lizzie
Throw another word on me and watch me hurl it back
I know you! (I swear I do)
You’re just like me- You’re sipping a cup of pity
Aw!
Did I forget to mention I’m the centre of attention
In my universe my pain’s my pension
I know you! (I swear I do)
You’re just like me-You’re sipping a cup of dreams
Yeah!
Soul sloshing-don’t shush me
Just listen to me -pretty little kitty in the sky
The bass of my laughter-my gut is the speaker
Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
Sweet is my surprise!

Self involved security, yet you are such a part of me
And somehow what we do seeps into me, seeps into you
It’s subtle-it’s creepy knees
It’s condescension versus humility
I know you! (I swear I do)
You’re just like me- You’re sipping a cup of pity
Aw!
Did I forget to mention I’m the centre of attention
In my universe my pain’s my pension
I know you! (I swear I do)
You’re just like me-You’re sipping a cup of dreams
Yeah!
Soul sloshing-don’t shush me
Just listen to me -pretty little kitty in the sky
The bass of my laughter-my gut is the speaker
Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
Sweet is my surprise!

This song deserves to be heard. I think it goes well with my LOVE HURTS entry. Reconstruction Site by The Weakerthans.

How I don’t know how to sing. I can barely play this thing. But you never seem to mind, and you tell me to fuck off when I need somebody to. How you make me laugh so hard. How whole years refuse to stay where we told them to, bad dog, locked up whining in a word or a misplaced souvenir. How the past chews on your shoes, and these memories lick my ear. I know you might roll your eyes at this, but I’m so glad that you exist. How we waste our precious time marching in the picket lines that surround those striking hearts. How the time is never now, and we know who we should love, but we’re never certain how. I know you might roll your eyes at this, but I’m so glad that you exist.

This is one great song. Crazy. Fun. Full of Love. Its My Coco from Stellastarr

Cool my brains and soothe my head
Stimulate me my Co-co-co
Sneak into my empty bed
And educate me my Co-co-co

In the summer in the spring
In public places my Co-co-co
On an island far away
Lemonade me my Co-co-co

And when I was down and failing life
You came and saved me my Co-co-co
And when they said I’m telling lies
You believed me my Co-co-co

And through the noise I heard a song
You were singing my Co-co-co
And when you said that nothings wrong
I believed you my Co-co-co

But you were gone when I came through
And I remember you – first
When someday I’ll dance with you
When I’m dreaming my Co-co-co

I sat alone and I didn’t care Come along…don’t
I sat two years in the same old chair We laughed through it to bliss
I saw three roads and I didn’t know Somehow, you’re my god
Which way to go-go-go You see through my head

You sit on top between you
I need some help from a little love You need some power in your zones
I need some help from a little above And you were then uh when I
And you were there I’m still in love I didn’t think that…
I wont forget Coco
We felt a lonely goodbye
I won’t forget you Coco I sat this stage for you
I won’t forget you Coco And I awaited for her
I won’t forget you Coco To wait in my head

I won’t forget you no no We felt a lonely goodbye
I won’t forget you no no I sat this stage for you
I won’t forget you no no And I awaited for her
I won’t forget you no no Because you’re my coco

Because your my Coco, your my Coco, My Coco
Your my Coco, Yeah, my Coco
