Launchcast on Yahoo: Hear the songs I've shown here!!

Trapped in your mind, the swirling thoughts of dreams and woes surround your every aspiration and whim.
It consumes your attention, and plagues your thoughts, leaving you stranded... alone.
Only the subtle glow from the radio and it's lucid tones, hold you on the edge of reality.
It is here we laugh and cry, relate and hate all at the drop of a solitary note.
Someone seems to relate to us and hears our pleas.

Save us all...
We are trapped with music in our minds.

Just Like You
by Three Days Grace

I could be mean
I could be angry
You know I could be just like you

I could be fake
I could be stupid
You know I could be just like you

You thought you were sitting beside me
Your were only in my way
You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you

You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you
You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you

I could be cold
I could be ruthless
You know I could be just like you

I could be weak
I could be senseless
You know I could be just like you

You thought you were sitting beside me
Your were only in my way
You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you

You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you
You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you

On my own, cause I can't take livin' with you
I'm alone, so I won't turn out like you
Want me to

You thought you were sitting beside me
Your were only in my way
You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you

You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you
You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you

I could be mean
I could be angry
You know I could be just like you



*grins* I notice that as of late, I have been interested in some darker music... Darker, more angry music. Which is interesting because I have been in a great mood lately. I really like this song when I'm particularly angry. I noticed it this last week. Only taking 25 orders in the last week and not hitting goal was annoying and when I got into the car on Wednesday, this was playing. I love this song! It totally fit how I felt as I left without hitting goal during the week. It floods my mind when I am indredibly angry at stupid shit. I think there are some more angst filled songs to come. *shrugs* We can only wait and see.

My Stupid Mouth
by John Mayer

My stupid mouth
Has got me in trouble
I said too much again
To a date over dinner yesterday
And I could see
She was offended
She said "well anyway..."
Just dying for a subject change

Oh, another social casualty
Score one more for me
How could I forget?
Mama said "think before speaking"
No filter in my head
Oh, what's a boy to do
I guess he better find one soon

We bit our lips
She looked out the window
Rolling tiny balls of napkin paper
I played a quick game of chess with the salt and pepper shaker
And I could see clearly
An indelible line was drawn
Between what was good, what just slipped out and what went wrong

Oh, the way she feels about me has changed
Thanks for playing, try again.
How could I forget?
Mama said "think before speaking"
No filter in my head
Oh, what's a boy to do
I guess he better find one

I'm never speaking up again
It only hurts me
I'd rather be a mystery
Than she desert me

Oh I'm never speaking up again
Starting now

One more thing
Why is it my fault?
So maybe I try too hard
But it's all because of this desire
I just wanna be liked
I just wanna be funny
Looks like the jokes on me
So call me captain backfire

Oh, another social casualty
Score one more for me
How could I forget?
Mama said "think before speaking"
No filter in my head
Oh, what's a boy to do
I guess he better find one

I'm never speaking up again
It only hurts me
I'd rather be a mystery
Than she desert me

Oh I'm never speaking up again
Starting now



The world is stupid sometimes. We always want things to work out for us and for things to be perfect. That includes meeting possibly new romantic interests for the first time. Things never go according to plan, whether it be planned out, or you're wingin' it. Something always gets botched.

That's what happened with Greg and I. He ended up getting sick on our first date... Ahh... love... I must say, he had to be a good catch if I still liked him after getting sick at the restaurant. I had never known him before that day. Everything was sort of unplanned. And as it got late, we got hungry and then, he got ill. It's one of those stories that I won't forget and I'll giggle about it with my kids down the road.

You know, John Mayer is superb in getting right into the lives of everyday people with his music. It's so nice to see something refreshing like that. And the song is something that will always remind me of the first night I met Greg.

I love you honey.

Too Late
by No Doubt

I just want to take you away from everyone
And keep you stashed under my pillow
And then I'd take you out simply for my own pleasure
And hold you and the occasion's special then
I'd put you on like a diamond
So I can sparkle and be the envy of my friends
I'd probably hold the leash that I'd have you on
So you can't stray and follow me around all day

It's too late now
I don't think it can fade
It's too real now
Fulfillment just adds fuel to the blaze

Compulsion has stained me, I'm nervously cradling
My young love, without no limits love
Like a butterfly cupped in my hands I peek in
To see beauty trapped confined it flutters
Then it leaves behind colorful dust
To remind me of the special times we spent
But of course it has to leave my clutch
But enough's never enough to make a dent

It's too late now
I don't think it can fade
It's too real now
Fulfillment just adds fuel to the blaze

And in time it will end
And there is enough for two of us
But right now I give in

It's too late now
I don't think it can fade
It's too real now
Fulfillment just adds fuel to the blaze
Fulfillment just adds fuel to the...
Fulfillment just adds fuel to the blaze

It's too late, it's too late...
It's too late, too late...
Aaah



No Doubt is one of my favorite groups. Possibly my favorite of all time. This song is a great piece of theirs. I wonder sometimes what happens in their lives to create such songs. The song makes me think someone is in love with something she can't control. She's in love with a part of her life she wants to keep the same and never let grow or change. It's sad to know that there are people who think they can control love and make it what they want it to be. It only makes the other person involved sad and drift away from who they once loved. The controlled wants to make their love grow, and the controller wants to keep the love the way it is for fear of the unknown or the love going differently than how they think it should be.

Daughters
by John Mayer

I know a girl
She puts the color inside of my world
But she's just like a maze
Where all of the walls all continually change
And I've done all I can
To stand on her steps with my heart in my hands
Now I'm starting to see
Maybe it's got nothing to do with me

Fathers, be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers, be good to your daughters too

Oh, you see that skin?
It's the same she's been standing in
Since the day she saw him walking away
Now she's left
Cleaning up the mess he made

So fathers, be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers, be good to your daughters too

Boys, you can break
You'll find out how much they can take
Boys will be strong
And boys soldier on
But boys would be gone without the warmth from
A womans good, good heart

On behalf of every man
Looking out for every girl
You are the god and the weight of her world

So fathers, be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers, be good to your daughters too



I know this song is more about fathers being good to their daughters but I like this song. I figured now would still be a good time to post it because not only does it talk about dads needing to be good to their daughters but it also reminds us that they become mothers once they are out on their own and settle down. (side note about the photo on the page: please bear with me as I get this situation fixed. I need to get access to my harddrive so I can access my pictures and so I can link them from another place. Thanks :/ )

Toxic
by Britney Spears

Baby, can't you see
I'm calling
A guy like you
Should wear a warning
It's dangerous
I'm fallin'

There's no escape
I can't wait
I need a hit
Baby, give me it
You're dangerous
I'm lovin' it

Too high
Can't come down
Losing my head
Spinning 'round and 'round
Do you feel me now

With a taste of your lips
I'm on a ride
You're toxic
I'm slipping under
With a taste of poison paradise
I'm addicted to you
Don't you know that you're toxic
And I love what you do
Don't you know that you're toxic

It's getting late
To give you up
I took a sip
From my devil cup
Slowly
It's taking over me

Too high
Can't come down
It's in the air
And it's all around
Can you feel me now

With a taste of your lips
I'm on a ride
You're toxic
I'm slipping under
With a taste of poison paradise
I'm addicted to you
Don't you know that you're toxic
And I love what you do
Don't you know that you're toxic

Don't you know that you're toxic

With a tast of your lips
I'm on a ride
You're toxic
I'm slipping under
With a taste of poison paradise
I'm addicted to you
Don't you know that you're toxic

Intoxicate me now
With your lovin' now
I think I'm ready now
I think I'm ready now
Intoxicate me now
With your lovin' now
I'm ready now



This is one of those songs that the radio plays every hour, on the hour. It seeps into your brain and drenches it with sulky, sassy female pop singers who try desperately to be a bad girl when they were sticky sweet for most of their early years... It's just their publicists and managers want to make them more desireable so they want them to look raunchy. Then, one day after hating this song on the radio, day after day, hour after hour... you see the damn video. Ok, the video is cool. Not top of the line graphics or anything but the hair and makeup dept.'s get kudos as does wardrobe! Now I like the damn song!!?!?!! I am not a Britney fan or anything either. Actually, I am against most Britney songs because she was singing stuff that just sounded either too pop or when she went "sultry & sincere," she sounded too damned stupid. The first song that comes to mind when I think of this is I'm Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman. *plans to hurl* I'm sorry I can't see her sing that song and think that it was a reflection of her life in general. Yeah, not really a fan of her works. (Ok, maybe Oops! I did it again too because of the Titanic reference and the fact it's a touch on the retro side in the video, but not much of anything else of hers impresses me) Now, if I was a guy... there would be a whole other physical angle to go with here that I could enlighten everyone on, but this is purely a music thing, ya know what I mean?!? ;)
