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.

Right Here
by Staind

I know I've been mistaken
But just give me a break and see the changes that I've made
I've got some imperfections
But how can you collect them all and throw them in my face

But you always find a way to keep me right here waiting
You always find the words to say to keep me right here waiting
And if you chose to walk away I'd still be right here waiting
Searching for the things to say to keep you right here waiting

I hope you're not intending
To be so condescending it's as much as I can take
and you're so independent
you just refuse to bend so I keep bending till I break

But you always find a way to keep me right here waiting
You always find the words to say to keep me right here waiting
And if you chose to walk away I'd still be right here waiting
Searching for the things to say to keep you right here waiting

I've made a commitment
I'm willing to bleed for you
I needed fulfillment
I found what I need in you
Why can't you just forgive me
I don't want to relive all the mistakes I've made along the way
But I always find a way to keep you right here waiting
I always find the words to say to keep you right here waiting

But you always find a way
To keep me right here waiting
You always find the words to say to keep me right here waiting
And if I chose to walk away would you be right here waiting
Searching for the things to say to keep me right here waiting



Have you ever felt that you've tried to apologize forever? Like there's this issue that can't be resolved and you want to apologize (and do) but it seems that although you hear that "it's ok" or "no problem" that it just doesn't seem to make the problem dissipate? I think everyone has that happen at some point. Wanting things to be resolved is critical for some people. To have people just waive it off like it never happened... but act as though they are still hurt by that very situation can be so draining and emotional. Those who want forgiveness will hang on that person's every word just to hear resolution slip from their lips. But half-hearted "no, really, it's ok" and an immediate cold shoulder confuses and bewilders them. They have to do more. They have to apologize more. They have to prove how stupid and wrong they were over and over, reliving the past to prove they aren't the same as before. And the person who they are asking this forgiveness of, just thinks they want to live in the past and just can't get over things and the cold shoulder comes from just wanting to move on, but not seeming to give that person any more chances. Somewhere in all of this, nothing is resolved... and they are all back going through the vicious circle again. Go to Staind's homepage, right now the this song is the first one that comes up when you visit the page. You can hear the song and hear what I mean. But as always... the lyrics are above.

Breathe (2am)
by Anna Nalick

2 AM and she calls me 'cause I'm still awake,
can you help me unravel my latest mistake,
I don't love him, winter just wasn't my season
Yeah we walk through the doors, so accusing their eyes
Like they have any right at all to critisize,
hypocrites, you're all here for the very same reason

'Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable
and life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button girl,
So cradle your head in you hands
And breathe, just breathe,
Woah breathe, just breathe

May he turn 21 on the base at Fort Bliss
Just today he sat down to the flask in his fist,
Ain't been sober, since maybe October of last year.
Here in town you can tell he's been down for a while,
But my God it's so beautiful when the boy smiles,
Wanna hold him, maybe I'll just sing about it.

Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable,
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table.
No one can find the rewind button boys,
So cradle your head in your hands,
And breathe, just breathe,
Woah breathe, just breathe

There's a light at each end of this tunnel, you shout
'Cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out
These mistakes you've made, you'll just make them again
If you only try turning around.

2 AM and I'm still awake, writing a song
If I get it all down on paper, its no longer
inside of me, threatening the life they belong to
And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
Cause these words are my diary, screaming out loud
And I know that you'll use them, however you want to

Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable,
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button now
Sing it if you understand.
and breathe, just breathe
woah breathe, just breathe,
oh breathe, just breathe.



Anna Nalick is fairly new to the scene. She's about 20 or so but this song is so good. The song examines life's uncertainties and offers comfort. From what I understand it covers three situations that Anna was dealing with all at the same time with friends. I really love the song,and it's very revealing of her personal side. She is definitely worth listening to.

Last Train Home
by Lostprophets

One! Two! Three!

To every broken heart in here
Love was once a part, but now it's disappeared
She told me that it's all part of the choices that you make
Even when you think you're right
You have to give to take

But there's still tomorrow
Forget the sorrow
And I can be on the last train home
Watch it pass the day
As it fades away
No more time to care
No more time, today

But we sing
If we're going nowhere
Yeah we sing
If it's not enough
And we sing
Sing without a reason
To ever fall in love

I wonder if you're listening
Picking up on the signals
Sent back from within
Sometimes it feels like I don't really know whats going on
Time and time again it seems like everything is wrong in here

But there's still tomorrow
Forget the sorrow
And I can be on the last train home
Watch it pass the day
As it fades away
No more time to care
No more time, today

But we sing
If we're going nowhere
Yeah we sing
If it's not enough
And we sing
Sing without a reason
To ever fall in love

But we sing if we're going nowhere
Yeah we sing if it's not enough
And we sing
Sing without a reason to ever fall in love

But we sing
If we're going no where
Yeah we sing
If it's not enough
And we sing
Sing with out a reason to never fall in love
To never fall in love again



To be honest, I don't know why I posted this song. It just made me feel good. I haven't heard alot of Lostprophet's music so I don't know if this is the exception to the rule or how most of their music goes. Usually I list songs that I have heard a few of the artists' other recordings. Well, I like it and at this point, that's all that really matters, right?

Crazy
by Patsy Cline

Crazy
Crazy for feeling so lonely
I'm crazy
Crazy for feeling so blue

I knew
You'd love me as long as you wanted
And then someday
You'd leave me for somebody new

Worry
Why do I let myself worry
Wond'rin'
What in the world did I do

Crazy
For thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for tryin'
Crazy for cryin'
And I'm crazy
For lovin' you

Crazy
For thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for tryin'
Crazy for cryin'
And I'm crazy
For lovin' you



The first time I had ever danced with Greg was at our wedding... Funny that the next time we danced was just short of 5 years later. When Becky got married, they played this song and we were pushed out onto the dance floor by some friends. I found it a little fitting because Greg has the nickname "Crazy" because he has this phrase he loves to say over and over to drive people nuts. "Crazy? I was crazy once... They locked me in a padded cell... It was cold in there... I could have died... There were worms... Worms drive me crazy!" (repeat ad nauseum). I had to post this for the week of our anniversary. It made me cry when we were out on the dance floor, and for a moment, I forgot whose wedding we were at.

Chemical
by Simple Plan

Funny how it all just fades away
to soul decay
from the things the world can say
or can i say?
everybody needs a little moment of truth
when they find a new
a new way to live with themselves
nobody ever had a clue
or knew what to do
when they had a little feeling called love
and nothing ever had to wait
if it came to hate
cause you can hate anything before you even try to
love it

love is chemical
straight from your genitals
never is spiritual
never unconditional
love is a chemical
nature is radical
never is spiritual
it's mathematical
and everything you've ever known today
is all the world can give you
don't believe in love or hate
it's only a chemical

I'm sorry that you never understood
it'll do ya some good
if you look around and find out for yourself
you need a little push to shove
test your love
will that person burn for you?
love is a beautiful way to face the day
but everybody's got it wrong
everybody's got it wrong

love is chemical
straight from your genitals
never is spiritual
never unconditional
love is a chemical
nature is radical
never is spiritual
it's mathematical
and everything you've ever known today
is all the world can give you
don't believe in love or hate
it's only a chemical

and i don't wanna be the one who has to look back
knowing my whole life was a lie
and i don't wanna be the one who has to reget
everything i kept inside
and i don't wanna spend another minute caring for the
things that don't mean anything at all
I never gave a
damn about
I'll never be
I'll never be your sacrifice

love is chemical
straight from your genitals
never is spiritual
never unconditional
love is a chemical
nature is radical
never is spiritual
it's mathematical
and everything you've ever known today
is all the world can give you
don't believe in love or hate
it's only a chemical



and i don't wanna be the one who has to look back
knowing my whole life was a lie
and i don't wanna be the one who has to reget
everything i kept inside
and i don't wanna spend another minute caring for the
things that don't mean anything at all I never gave a
damn about
I'll never be
I'll never be your sacrifice


So many times people think "woulda, shoulda, coulda..." "If only..." "What if..." I have done so much thinking this last week I think my brain was oozing by Friday. Love shouldn't be something taken for granted... nor should opportunites. You become more alive when you experience life to the fullest. Take chances... get hurt... dump someone... try spicy food... skinny dip... Be adventuous. Don't take experiences for granted. You'll only regret it.
