FOUR SONGS THAT MATTER TO ME NOW
(August 1, 2006) NAÏVE (The Kooks). Someone said he likes this song…and he’s rite, its a cute song & its starting to grow on me. I wish iTunes would be kind enaff to include this in their
HANDS OPEN (Snow Patrol). "Are you giggling again, Khristina?" That was Tavis asking me the question one nite when this song was playing in the store. I just think it’s the sweetest song of all time…at least for now.) HOW TO BE DEAD (Snow Patrol). I thought this was a loovesong! Well even then, I still loove it. Really, really. I mean, read the lyrics below…
FLAKE (Jack Johnson). I heard someone singing along with this song and from then on, I started to dig on the song. Could it be his influence (that he likes the song), or is it because I could just relate to the lyrics…? It’s for you to find out.
download list…sigh. (And I’m dreaming too, when I think that this song IS for me, from him). …deeper sigh.
N - A- I- V -E
I’m not saying it was your fault
Although you could have done more
Oh you’re so naive yet so
How could this be done
Your such a smiling sweetheart
Oh and your sweet and pretty face
In such an ugly way
Something so beautiful
That everytime I look inside
I know that she knows that I’m not fond of asking
True or false it may be
She’s still out to get me
I know that she knows that I’m not fond of asking
True or false it may be
She’s still out to get me
I may say it was your fault
Cause I know you could have done more
Oh you’re so naive yet so
How could this be done
By such a smiling sweetheart
Oh and your sweet and pretty face
In such an ugly way something so beautiful
Everytime I look inside
I know that she knows that I’m not fond of asking
True or false it may be
She’s still out to get me
I know that she knows that I’m not fond of asking
True or false it may be
She’s still out to get me
How could this be done
By such a smiling sweetheart
Oh you’re so naive yet so
Such an ugly thing
Someone so beautiful
And everytime you’re on his side
I know she knows that I’m not fond of asking
True or false it maybe be she’s still out to get me
And I know she knows that I’m not fond of asking
True or false it maybe be she’s still out to get me
Just don’t let me down
Just don’t let me down
Hold on to your kite
Just don’t let me down
Just don’t let me down
Hold on to your kite
Just don’t let me down
Just don’t let me down
Hold on to this kite
"Hands Open"
It’s hard to argue when
you won’t stop making sense
But my tongue still misbehaves and it
keeps digging my own grave with my
Hands open, and my eyes open
I just keep hoping
That your heart opens
Why would I sabotage
the best thing that I have
Well, it makes it easier to know
exactly what I want with my…
Hands open and my eyes open
I just keep hoping
that your heart opens
It’s not as easy as willing it all to be right
Gotta be more than hoping it’s right
I wanna hear you laugh like you really mean it
Collapse into me, tired with joy

Put Sufjan Stevens on
and we’ll play your favorite song
"Chicago" bursts to life and your
sweet smile remembers you, my
+ HOW TO BE DEAD +
Please don’t go crazy, if I tell you the truth
No you don’t know what happened
And you never will if
You don’t listen to me while I talk to the wall
This blanket is freezing, it’s been out in the hall
Where you’ve had me for hours
Still I’m sure what I want
But darling I want the same thing that I wanted before
So sweetheart tell me what’s up I won’t stop no way
Please keep your hands down
And stop raising your voice
It’s hardly what I’d be doing if you gave me a choice
It’s a simple suggestion can you give me some time
So just say yes or no
Why can’t you shoulder the blame
Coz both my shoulders are heavy
From the weight of us both
You’re a big boy now so let’s not talk about growth
You’ve not heard a single word I have said…
Oh, my God
Please take it easy it can’t all be my fault
I haven’t made half the mistakes
That you’ve listed so far
Oh baby let me explain something
It’s all down to drugs
At least I remember taking them and not a lot else
It seems I’ve stepped over lines
You’ve drawn again and again
But if the ecstacy’s in, heroin is definitely out
Dr. Jekyll is wrestling Hyde for my pride
* FLAKE *
I know she said it’s alright
But you can make it up next time
I know she knows it’s not right
There ain’t no use in lying
Maybe she thinks I know something
Maybe maybe she thinks its fine
Maybe she knows something I don’t
I’m so, I’m so tired, I’m so tired of trying
It seems to me that maybe,
It pretty much always means no
So don’t tell me you might just let it go
And often times we’re lazy
It seems to stand in my way
Cause no one no not no one
Likes to be let down
I know she loves the sunrise
No longer sees it with her sleeping eyes
And I know that when she said she’s gonna try
Well it might not work because of other ties and
I know she usually has some other ties
And I wouldn’t want to break ‘em, nah, I wouldn’t want to break ‘em
Maybe she’ll help me to untie this but
Until then well, I’m gonna have to lie too
It seems to me that maybe
It pretty much always means no
So don’t tell me you might just let it go
And often times we’re lazy
It seems to stand in my way
Cause no one no not no one
Likes to be let down
It seems to me that maybe
It pretty much always means no
So don’t tell me you might just let it go
The harder that you try baby, the further you’ll fall
Even with all the money in the whole wide world
Please please please don’t pass me
Please please please don’t pass me
Please please please don’t pass me by
Everything you know about me now baby you gonna have to change
You gonna have to call it by a brand new name
Please please please don’t drag me
Please please please don’t drag me
Please please please don’t drag me down
Just like a tree down by the water baby I shall not move
Even after all the silly things you do
Please please please don’t drag me
Please please please don’t drag me
Please please please don’t drag me down
