The Cure- Tegan & Sara

Screaming like no one might call the cops and
arrest you this time.
Standing back against my building's back door,
you're hoping for a ride.
I know the world's been mean to you,
I've got a cure, hold tight.
I know the world's not fair to you,
I've got a cure for it's crimes.

All I dreamed up, all that seemed like luck seems silly to you now.
All I said to you, all I did for you seems so silly to me now.

Blame It On The Rain- He is We

Maybe im alone in this
But I find peace in solitude knowing if
I had but just one kiss this whole room would be glowing
We'd be glowing
We'd be glowing

Act 5, Scene 5

Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Listen Up


walking with the ghost....
tegan and sara!
Check it out

only to crush you into smithereens.

you're arguing with someone.. and i mean really arguing! And you feel like you're fighting for something that's truly life altering, you won't give it up, and you are completely heated. All you see is your side of the story, you won't even bother to look around to see what else is out there! You are drunk with fury over it all. It starts to ruin your day, as you see everything spiraling down. You are in shock with the words escaping your mouth and from hers. When finally you just give it up, no forgiving or forgetting just a solid time out. You catch your breath, maybe even go for a cruise, totally cool off... and you realize that what you're arguing.. what your fighting for means nothing. What matters is the things you're losing with every rude word and nasty remark. What you should be watching out for are the good times never coming, because you bitched out. You think about what you have and things begin to clear up. Not only are you calm but you are actually considering the other side of the story... her side, her life, her troubles. And a sudden weight just drops from the sky only to crush you into smithereens. You're starting to realize how selfish you've been and oblivious to her and her situation. Its a good thing you know you have something special.. a lot of people don't have anything with anyone to be proud of. But you're proud.. you know the two of you together create a masterpiece, that yea you'll argue and act like you don't care but at the end of the day, when the mood washes away, you know she's the one you'll run too. You are well aware she's the only one that knows you, and you certainly aren't ready to stop smiling. And now that she's got the darkness following her, you need to step up! Soon enough the two of you will be sharing lyrics and jamming to god knows what.. and you'll just look at each other and know that nothing can change, that you can bitch and fight all day long, but the more you fight the more there is to live for... to prove to one another.. and you both know that you were made for each other!

you're drawing crazy on my face.

to bleed with no recollection.
without red, or seen impurities.
beyond bad days, and forced smiles.
to bleed out, but not know at all.
to cry with no major sob
tears tracing the contours of my face
eliminating the crazy.

in control, and losing it.
level headed, and envious.

I'll smile, and know why I'm faking
grunt and scream, to feel alive
and alone you'll find me searching.
I figure your answers are weak
and my questions are rhetorical.
listening is habit,
you're drawing crazy on my face.

in truth, and lying to you.
seeking right, and you give me wrong

-feel blue, think green, shine yellow
adventure queen.

but he cannot give you his understanding.


Then said a teacher, "Speak to us of Teaching."
And he said:
No man can reveal to you aught but that which already lies half asleep in the dawning of our knowledge.
The teacher who walks in the shadow of the temple, among his followers, gives not of his wisdom but rather of his faith and his lovingness.
If he is indeed wise he does not bid you enter the house of wisdom, but rather leads you to the threshold of your own mind.
The astronomer may speak to you of his understanding of space, but he cannot give you his understanding.
The musician may sing to you of the rhythm which is in all space, but he cannot give you the ear which arrests the rhythm nor the voice that echoes it.
And he who is versed in the science of numbers can tell of the regions of weight and measure, but he cannot conduct you thither.
For the vision of one man lends not its wings to another man.

Kahlil Gibran.
