  1. Seven Mary Three - Southwestern State:

     

    She’s got a ticket

    But you need more than a ticket to get you there

    You need a string of good intentions

    And an easy burn

    Maybe some good luck

    With the cash tucked in the back of your pocket

    Maybe it’s still not enough to ease your pain

    You get tired and say f--k it

     

    Each little mystery is safe in your heart

    You’ve got to wonder, is moving on the best that you can do?

    Need to have a little conversation

    Find the truth behind the questions that are haunting you

     

    She says there’s motivation

    Tucked into the crease between the seats

    I looked through the box

    For cigarettes, maps, keys

    There’s so much room in here

    You can put your feet straight out the dash

    She turns the radio on

    Pulls me close to hear me laugh

     

    Each little mystery is safe in your heart

    You’ve got to wonder, is moving on the best that you can do?

    Need to have a little conversation

    Find the truth behind the questions that are haunting you

     

    She rests her hand along the space

    Between my neckline and my back

    I can feel her fingers runnin’ through the feelings

    I didn’t think I had. like? br>maybe this road we’re on

    Is the very thing that’s come between us

    Maybe it’s the highway

    To the very place that might just save us

     

    Each little mystery is safe in your heart

    You’ve got to wonder, is moving on the best that you can do?

    Need to have a little conversation

    Find the truth behind the questions that are haunting you

     

    Each little mystery is safe in your heart

    You’ve got to wonder, is moving on the best that you can do?

    I hear you’ve got a little education

    It’s not enough to satisfy what’s haunting you


  2. It's sappy pop love song time!

     

    Super Deluxe - Years Ago

     

    We'd met one silent second once before

    Collided tension all for fear

    Walking a threshold that we musn't ignore

    Message received

    Loud and clear

     

    I lost my heart to you years ago

    Where are you where are you now

    And so I learn what I already should have known

    Years ago...

     

    Somewhere else again and with someone else

    My thoughts drift straight to you

    While i am bitterly betrayed by myself

    Despite the fight of intellect

    Instinct will rule

     

    I lost my heart to you years ago

    Where are you where are you now

    And so I learn what I already should have known

    Years ago...

     

    Love cures and love hurts

    Love is and isn't true love

    We're all alone....

     

    In my mind I see you silently while you seduce me

    I'd imagine every detail here as you're saying slowly

    Come on come on right or wrong...

    Your choice is only give in to me...

     

    I lost my heart to you years ago

    Where are you where are you now

    And so I learn what I already should have known

    Years ago...

    Lyrics - Secret Girl

     

    She

     

    She wasted no time

     

    Leaving town

     

    She wasted no time

     

    And Lord, Lord knows that I

     

    Am so tired

     

    Tired of fighting

     

    She

     

    She wanted to be

     

    A secret girl

     

    In her own world

     

    She, she wanted to be

     

    A secret girl

     

    A waking dream

     

    Forgiveness, and forget

     

    'Cause time is wastin, you're gonna regret it

     

    And Lord knows that I

     

    I've been seein' it seein' it comin'

     

    She

     

    She wanted to be

     

    A secret girl

     

    In her own world

     

    She, she wanted to be

     

    A secret girl

     

    A waking dream


  4. Kenny Rogers - Lady

     

    Lady, I'm your knight in shining armor and I love you

    You have made me what I am and I am yours

    My love, there's so many ways I want to say I love you

    Let me hold you in my arms forever more

     

    You have gone and made me such a fool

    I'm so lost in your love

    And oh, we belong together

    Won't you believe in my song?

     

    Lady, for so many years I thought I'd never find you

    You have come into my life and made me whole

    Forever let me wake to see you each and every morning

    Let me hear you whisper softly in my ear

     

    In my eyes I see no one else but you

    There's no other love like our love

    And yes, oh yes, I'll always want you near me

    I've waited for you for so long

     

    Lady, your love's the only love I need

    And beside me is where I want you to be

    'Cause, my love, there's somethin' I want you to know

    You're the love of my life, you're my lady!


  5. The Rockfords - Silver Lining

     

    Click For Spoiler
    What about me

    What about you

    Are we on our own

    I won't call you anymore

    And I'll find a silver lining

    I know you loved me

    Back when we were friends

    Back when I was cool

    Before I broke some rule

    Now you've moved into another place

    But I miss you still

    As I always will

    And then you say to me

    You can't deny

    There's something here that makes us hurt

    and you say, isn't it love?

    So what about me

    What about you

    Are we on our own

    And I won't call you anymore

    And I'll find a silver lining

    In my own black little cloud

    Maybe I was proud

    Maybe you were proud

    The way we talked it out and walked away

    Like ghosts in the day

    I have nothing new to offer you

    You're my own best friend

    And I'll say again

    As you said to me

    You can't deny

    There's something here that makes us hurt

    and you say, isn't it love?

    So what about me

    What about you

    Are we on our own

    And I won't call you anymore

    And I'll find a silver lining

    In my own black little cloud

    I'm alone

    Yes, I'm all right

    I know that I can make it through this night

    So what about me

    What about you

    Are we on our own

    And I won't call you anymore

    And I'll find a silver lining

    In my own black little cloud

    So what about me

    What about you

    Are we on our own

    And I won't call you anymore

    And I'll find a silver lining

    Yes I will

    So what about me

    What about you

    Are we on our own

    And I won't call you anymore

    And I'll find a silver lining

    Yes I will

    Yes I will

    So what about me

    What about you

    Are we on our own

    So what about me

    What about you

    Are we on our own

    Will we find a silver lining

    Will we find a silver lining

    Will we find a silver lining

  6. George Strait - "It Ain't Cool To Be Crazy About You"

     

    I thought you and me were something special;

    Thought you thought that way too.

    Now I know that this ol' boy just ain't

    The best you think you'll ever do.

     

    [Chorus:]

    It ain't cool to be crazy about you,

    It ain't suave or debonair

    To let you know I care, like I do.

    It ain't smart to be so reckless with my heart.

    (I) should have known right from the start

    I'd end up like a fool; believe me, it ain't cool.

     

    All of my friends, they tried to tell me

    What and what not to do.

    It took a while for them to sell me,

    But finally they got through.

     

    [Chorus]


  7. One of my friends serenaded me with this song a while back...

    Sometimes When We Touch - Dan Hill

     

    You ask me if I love you

    And I choke on my reply

    I'd rather hurt you honestly

    Than mislead you with a lie

    And who am I to judge you

    On what you say or do?

    I'm only just beginning to see the real you

     

    And sometimes when we touch

    The honesty's too much

    And I have to close my eyes and hide

    I wanna hold you til I die

    Til we both break down and cry

    I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

     

    Romance and all its strategy

    Leaves me battling with my pride

    But through the insecurity

    Some tenderness survives

    I'm just another writer

    Still trapped within my truth

    A hesitant prize fighter

    Still trapped within my youth

     

    And sometimes when we touch

    The honesty's too much

    And I have to close my eyes and hide

    I wanna hold you til I die

    Til we both break down and cry

    I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

     

    At times I'd like to break you

    And drive you to your knees

    At times I'd like to break through

    And hold you endlessly

     

    At times I understand you

    And I know how hard you've tried

    I've watched while love commands you

    And I've watched love pass you by

     

    At times I think we're drifters

    Still searching for a friend

    A brother or a sister

    But then the passion flares again

     

    And sometimes when we touch

    The honesty's too much

    And I have to close my eyes and hide

    I wanna hold you til I die

    Til we both break down and cry

    I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides


  8. Here's a current favorite of mine:

    Antigone Rising - "She's Not Innocent"

     

    SHE'S NOT INNOCENT

     

     

    Written by Cassidy, K. Henderson © 2005 Cassidy (BMI)/3 Third Avenue Music (BMI)

     

    CASSIDY: "This song's about loving a woman who doesn't need anyone. A survivor who lives on her own terms."

     

    He casts a shadow down the block

    he can't remember

    Just how to start or when to stop

    fight or defend her

    He shines the light into the dark

    and empty corner

    right where the past had left its mark

    Too late to warn her.

     

    Chorus:

    But she's fine

    she's not innocent

    She's fine

    in all her discontent

    She knows it's always been the same.

    It'll always be that way.

     

    He holds the secret in his fist

    a burning ember

    To stay or go now that's the twist

    hate or befriend her.

     

    Chorus 2:

    But she's fine

    she's not innocent

    She's cool

    in all her discontent

    She knows

    it's always been the same

    She's fine

    she's not ignorant

    She knows

    there's no main event

    She's fine

    It's always been the same

     

    (bridge)

    It'll always be that

    way

    It'll always be that way...be that way...

     

    (repeat 1st half of chorus)

    She's fine

    she don't give a damn

    You don't have to understand

    She knows it's always been the same

    and she'll always be that way.

     


  9. As much as I adore the home team, I am skeptical that they can pull it out! I would love to see the M's pull out an amazing second half, but I have that natural Seattle-area skepticism.

     

    We may not have a playoff team this year, but darnit, we will again. That I have faith in!


  10. I've got the first 1:13 of Second Coming "It Kills Me" on a continuous loop right now. It's a sound sample from an upcoming release so I don't have the whole song. :)

     

    First verse lyrics in spoiler:

    Click For Spoiler
    It Kills Me

     

    Take another look around

    It’s not quite what it used to be

    As I toss around these images

    And thoughts of what’s to be

     

    And you’re beautiful I know

    I just wish I could tell you so

    But my heart is so empty

    With nothing left

    Nothing left to show

     

    Love doesn’t make me stronger

    It’s what kills me

    Why must you make it harder?

    It just kills me


  11. Goo Goo Dolls are one of my "guilty pleasure" bands! :lol:

     

    Here's another of theirs I really like:

     

    Goo Goo Dolls - What A Scene (from Gutterflower)

     

    When you're feeling all wrong in the back of your mind again

    How does it feel?

    When you drop down

    Everything's all the same

    Oh, yeah

     

    Saccharine, caffeine, nicotine gum

    All tastes sweet but it's not for long

    And I just think you thought it would be

     

    And when you're looking for truth on the cover of a magazine

    How does it feel?

    When you found out what you're not going to be

    Oh, yeah

     

    They give you your image and the things you believe

    Open your eyes, tell me what did you see

    And I just think you thought it so real

     

    [Chorus]

    And how does it feel when you're out on your own?

    And now it's too late to go home

    And it's hard to be free when you're down on your knees

    Take it easy 'til you make it alone

     

    Now your supermarket, punk rock, television, comedy

    Out on the scene

    Yeah, I been down now there's no hand to feed

    Oh, yeah

     

    And all the beautiful images lining your walls

    Pop radio screaming down the halls

    And now you think you found something real

    When it's all about money and the things that you need

    Live a big lie and they all believe

    And I just find that somehow obscene

     

    [Chorus]

    And how does it feel to be out on your own?

    And now it's too late to go home

    And it's hard to be free when you're down on your knees

    Take it easy 'til you make it alone

    Take it easy 'til you make it alone

    What a scene

    (Yeah)

     

    It's all been said before

    And all been done

    Take it easy 'til you make it alone

    Take it easy 'til you make it alone

     

    [Repeated over and over]

    La na na na na

    La na na na na

     

    'Cause lies weigh more than truth

    Innocence looks good on you

    Now everybody wants to know your name

     

    [Repeated over and over to the end]

    La na na na na

    La na na na na


  12. She's Not Innocent - Antigone Rising

     

    They're a realtively unknown group whose CD is only being sold at Starbucks right now. My cousin's friend works for Starbucks and has been recommending this CD to everyone!

     

    I really, really like it. :P


  13. I like your work! I've been very into 35mm B&W stuff too. When I had a darkroom at my disposal, I always liked to do reversals and extremely high contrast stuff.

     

    I wish I could afford darkroom equipment of my own. The best I ever had at home was the ability to develop film in my bathroom. I was a teenager at the time and hocked my CD collection for developing chemicals and stuff. Boy, my mom hated it when I locked myself in there for hours! B) :(

     

    I bought a negative scanner many months ago in order to digitize all my work... it's taking this side of forever to even get through my first year of b&w stuff. :dude:

     

    I don't know if it's just me, but I can't stand the idea of using a digital camera for artsy stuff or portrait work. I think of my digital as something for snapshots and nothing more.

     

    Of course, that might just be because I can't afford the Pentax *ist DS I really want! B)

     

    I still do business with a one-hour place near my house for my color prints. The owner is very meticulous with his equipment and I have never gotten a single bad print from that store. B)


  14. My problem is that I'm too sarcastic for people to know I'm flirting. They think I'm just being a jerk. It's weird how you're open to all your guy "friends", even insanely dirty at times, but very closed off to those you really want... :-)

    [\quote]

     

    I've had that same problem. I'm a really goofy person and it never seems that the people I try to flirt with notice. They all think I'm just joking around.

     

    My current interest had to put me on the spot to get me to admit that I was interested. I had played some trick on him which had a double meaning and he was unsure of what the heck I meant by it.

     

    He finally called me one night and said, "You have three seconds to answer my question honestly or I'm hanging up on you. Are you flirting with me?"

     

    I was so shocked and tongue-tied, but I finally managed to blurt out, "Yes, yes, yes! I am attracted to you, okay?" :blush 2:

     

    We talked that night for over three hours and have been close friends ever since. We're taking things really slowly, but the potential is definitely there. :laugh:

     

    Love should always start with a sound friendship.

     

    This is so true! :laugh:


  15. I just want someone there when I need them the most. And also, not to use me for what they can get out of me.

     

    Odie, hon, I have definitely had enough run-ins with the types who just take advantage of the fact that you care about them. :dude:

     

    I'm so very lucky that I have a guy friend who is always there for me. Okay, well, he's not *always* there for me... he works long hours. But if I call him with some asinine problem, he always listens and give me practical advice that I had overlooked. He's always got a hug and a shoulder rub for me when I come over.

     

    They do exist... they're just very hard to find! :dude:

     

    Oh, and I think a lot of women tend to like outgoing guys because many of us are uncomfortable trying to find out if a shy guy is interested. :blush 2:


  16. Personality. Personality. Personality. :dude:

     

    I've never been attracted to a certain look. It's weird, most of the men I have been involved with in my life were people I clicked with immediately upon meeting them.

     

    I like a man who treats other people with respect, tells people the truth no matter what (but does so tactfully), can hold an intelligent conversation (but doesn't dominate a conversation so one feels like they are sitting in a college lecture), and who doesn't neglect the people in his life.

     

    I like a man who doesn't stereotype. He needs to see me for who I am and not pre-judge based on one interest or characteristic of mine. He needs to have similar but not exactly the same interests as I do... and he needs to not stifle my interests. He needs to have similar opinions as I do about poilitics and the world in general, but also needs to be willing to agree to disagree in a debate. I can't stand a person who beats you over the head with their opinion until you cave in.

     

    He should have a positive outlook but stand up for himself and the people in his life. He needs to have a good sense of humor and like to be silly at times.

     

    I also like a man who cooks and cleans. But of course, when I am around that man, I like to be able to help without him getting upset that I am in his way. :dude:

     

    (and yes, I did just decribe my "semi-boyfriend"... he's all those things and a million times more) :dude:
