soft caresses

Softly, deftly
Music shall caress you
Hear it, feel it
Secretly possess you
Open up your mind
Let your fantasies unwind
In this darkness which you know you cannot fight
The darkness of the music of the night

My favorite song from The Phantom of the Opera...Music of the Night 

losing ground

I'm losing ground
Well, you know how this world can beat you down
And I'm made of clay
I fear I'm the only one who thinks that way

I'm always falling down the same hill
bamboo puncturing this skin
and nothing comes bleeding out of me
Just like a waterfall
I'm drowning in

2 feet below the surface
I can still make out your face
and if I could just reach you
maybe I could leave this place

I do not want this
I do not want this
I do not want this
I do not want this

NIN, I Do Not Want This 

 

pow!!

 

 

What has happened to it all?
Crazy some are saying
Where is the life that I recognize?
Gone away

But I won't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow, I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Ordinary World, Duran Duran 

on and on and on and on and on.....

I tripped and fell. Did I fall?
What I want to feel, I want to feel it now

You know, with love comes strange currencies
And here is my appeal:

I need a chance, a second chance, a third chance, a fourth chance
A word, a signal, a nod, a little breath
Just to fool myself
To catch myself
To make it real
Real

from Strange Currencies, R.E.M. 

 

more than words

Saying "I love you"
Is not the words I want to hear from you
It's not that I want you not to say
But if you only knew
How easy it would be
To show me how you feel
More than words
Is all you have to do to make it real
Then you wouldn't have to say
That you love me
'Cause I'd already know

What would you do
If my heart was torn in two?
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real?
What would you say
If I took those words away?
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying, "I love you"

Extreme, More Than Words 

 

angst

Her feelings she hides
Her dreams she can't find
She's losing her mind
She's fallen behind
She can't find her place
She's losing her faith
She's fallen from grace
She's all over the place

She wants to go home
But nobody's home
It's where she lies
Broken inside

There's no place to go
No place to go to dry her eyes

Broken inside

She's lost inside
Lost inside

Part of Avril Lavigne's song, "Nobody's Home"
