i hope its alright if you're still mine when we're older

These lyrics are incredible-


"I hope you don't mind if I fall asleep on your shoulder now
turn off the lights and let the night begin;
I hope its alright if you're still mine when we're older
cuz I won't spend another day wonderin' what might have been."
-Kate Voegele, 'Might Have Been'
*** This song reminds me of me. And how there are some people who I just want to keep forever, who I could actually fall asleep on their shoulders and feel completely secure. It also reminds me of how I just go for it when I see someone I want to be friends with, I just am. And I hope they don't mind.

"Red letter day, and I'm in a blue mood
wishing that blue would just carry me away;
I've been talkin to God, don't know if its helpin or not
but surely somethin has got to, got to give,
cuz I can't keep waitin to live.
How far do I have to go to get to you?
Many the miles..."
-Sara Bareilles, 'Many the Miles'
***Sometimes I just want to disappear. And sometimes I feel like praying is not helping, even though I know God is there. And I just keep wishing, and hoping, and wondering when the sun will rise again, because I can't function normally [aka happily] when I am consumed with unhappy thoughts.. which are usually caused by separation [physical or emotional] from someone I love.

"Do you catch a breath when I look at you?
Are you holding back like the way I do?
Because I'm tryin & tryin to walk away,
but I know this crush ain't goin away..."
-David Archuleta, 'Crush'
***Need I say more?

"I'm just a little bit caught in the middle
life is a maze, and love is a riddle,
I don't know where to go,
can't do it alone- I've tried,
and I don't know why.
I'm just a little girl lost in the moment,
I'm so scared that I don't show it
I cant figure out, its bringin me down I know.
I've got to let it go, and just enjoy the show."
-Lenka, 'The Show'
***Life is so effing complicated. I just feel like it is this roller coaster ride of highs and lows and there is no way to escape. I need people, and they don't need me; and that is one of the hardest things in the world to deal with. Then I just keep all these feelings bottled inside, only to reveal them to like.. the 4 people on earth I trust most. It is never-ending confusion over SOMETHING, and then I get all emo.. but I just need to remember to chill and enjoy the friends I do have.

"Don't break my heart,
I ain't never done nothin to deserve this
I'm torn apart & you've had your fun
do you suppose I earned it?
Do you not see how I'm beggin on my knees;
now don't speak, don't breathe,
you bring out the devil in me."
-Kate Voegele, 'Devil in Me'
***This pretty much explains itself. Sometimes it feels like the world is out to get you... and it sucks.


"I wanna come to the base of a statue built
before they counted the years,
and there I'll fall with my face in my hands & cry
& feel their hope in my tears."
-Brendan James, 'All I Can See'
***This is just a beautiful lyric. And I love it.


"And I won't be far from where you are
if ever you should call.
You meant more to me than anyone
I've ever loved at all;
you taught me how to trust myself
and so I say to you, that this is what I have to do...
Cuz I don't know who I am,
who I am without you;
all I know is that I should..."
-Missy Higgins, 'Where I Stood'
***Its true.
