12/26

This song is about the tsunami that hit Thailand a couple years ago... its a reminder about how thankful we all should be for what we have.. the lyrics to the song are a bit desturbing when you first begin to read them... but its a good song.


one of her babies is rotting in the sun
and the other one was found drowned in the ocean
her mom and dad are in their van crushed and bloated
and her husband was thrown from his fishing boat
so please give me a break from all your complaining
about who was mean to you and how your stepdad is a pain-
i care, i swear, but i just can't take it, not today
all i can think about are tsunamis and earthquakes
everything she's ever known is gone, gone, gone
everyone she's ever loved is gone, gone, gone
the only reason she's alive is
she grabbed a palm frond and held on
and held on
you can call me crazy but it seems to me we could
have sent more than we spend in one day killing iraqis
to help the hundreds of thousands
who are injured and diseased
and hungry and homeless and without families
i'm appalled by our government's initial reactionand the fact that they asked for a verbal retractionfrom the folks who called them stingy
they're just covering their assets
well, they thank their greedy god for wiping out the lower class
everything she's ever known is gone, gone, gone
everyone she's ever loved is gone, gone, gone
the only reason she's alive is
she grabbed a palm frond and held on
and held on
one of her babies is rotting in the sun
and the other one was found drowned in the ocean
her mom and dad are in their van crushed and bloated
and her husband was thrown from his fishing boat
we'd have 12/26 tattooed across our foreheads
if something this atrocious happened on our coast instead
well, a tragedy's a tragedy no matter where it happens
close your eyes really tight and try to imagine
that everything you've ever known is gone
and everyone you've ever loved is gone
and the only reason you're alive is you were lucky
and you were strong enough to hold on
while you watched your family die
while you watched your family die
while you watched your family die
while you watched your family die
everything she's ever known is gone, gone, gone
everyone she's ever loved is gone, gone, gone
the only reason she's alive is
she grabbed a palm frond and held on
and held on



Now really thinks about it...really close your eyes... how would it feel to louse EVRYONE.... to louse EVRYTHING ... and be the only one left???

kinda sucks a little more than your annoying little brother... or your stuck up loder siste... i think so...

This one is for Becca

Eleventeen - Kimya Dawson

Silver pink ponies flying over meyou may feel strange, well, you are an angel

stuck in tight pants stuck at a high school dance

stuck doing people things not knowing you have wings

you are my serenade you are my lemonade

you are my soul throw it all out the window

you are my training wheel you are my chamomile

you are my friend come again some other day

you are my pantomime and you are my moonshine

you are my sunshine you are my shooting star

you are my elbow you are my buttercup

*spoonful of puppycat bellyful of kittypup*

pretty pretty baby tin toy maybe

X marks the spot and it's not what they expected

sing that song again the one that makes me cry when

she walks into the room and you don't know what to do

every step of every day i love you

every single one of you

whenever you get in your own way ilove you, you love me too

no pain anymore nothing to feel sorry for

heaven is right here heaven is every

where

look at the trees dancing in the breeze

feel the raindrops on your knees

silver pink ponies flying over me

flying over me they're flying over you too

silver pink ponies flying over me

flying over me their flying over you too

silver pink ponies flying over me

you may feel strange, well, you are an angel

stuck in tight pants stuck at a high school dance

stuck doing people things not knowing you have wings

you are an angel

you are an angel

you are an angel

you are an angel

My Broken Friend

When i look into your eyes i see...

I see the boy in you come out
He is afraid to face reality
Because he truly belives it out to get him

I see some of the best times you had with her
Tun to the most painful memories you contain

I see your tears
They fall evry night as you try to sleep
And yet more come evry morning

I see your heart
Shaterd
Laying cold on the floor

I see your eyes
Darting away from the pictures you took together
Just to avouid tears

I see your soal
Begging desperately
To have just one last chance with the only person responsible for your loneliness

I see my friend
He's drowning some where inside of all that
He doesnt want to keep going
He doesnt think he can move along

And its one if the most helpless feelings in the world
Because i love you
I may now show it all the time
I may not say it often..
But its true..

You know what else i see?

I see glipses
Of how he used to be
His silly jokes
His boyish antics
the boy i miss
The boy i want so despratly to come back

I see healing
Its happening
Slowly
But it is
And i cant wait till you are compleate again

Caving In - Kimya Dawson

Love this song! Thougt maybe you would too...


Have you ever been swindled by a swindler who lies'cause he wants to see you smile, have a good time, be inspired
And he doesn't want for you to cry or know he cries inside
So he hides behind his great triumphant rock and roll disguise
We want things to be real but you really can't deny
We feel excited and on fire is it wrong to lie and say he's fine
When the reason he's not fine is the pressure of the power changing lives
And just for an hour all these people will be better people
Take this job and shove it, adios
I'm a ghost
I am leaving for the coast and I'll never work for anyone again
I am not your savior or your heavenly host
I'm just a piece of zwieback toast
Getting soggy in a baby's achin' mouth
I'm going south like the geese
I just goosed you and so maybe I seem loose to you
But I don't even want to screw
And I did once
But I don't now
Now that I see how you do things
The way you play and sing's amazing
But the way you play the game is crazyYou don't have to say you're sorry you don't owe me anything
Don't owe me anything
Sometimes it seems like I've got all the answers
But the answers aren't the same when the questions keep on changing
Like how will I react when I see my mother crying
Every single day 'cause she is afraid of dying?
And how will I contain my anger
When Delila plays Unchained Melody instead of Lost In Your Eyes?
And where will I go where I can feel safe
When my family sells it's place and we all split up and move away?
I'm trying to be brave 'cause when I'm brave
Other people feel brave
But I feel like my heart is caving in
I'm trying to be brave 'cause when I'm brave
Other people feel brave
But I feel like my heart is caving in
I'm trying to be brave 'cause when I'm brave
Other people feel brave
But I feel like my heart is caving in

A Love Letter

She is in love...

Not with a single person
Not with a man
Nor a woman
She is in love with a group
A mass of people
A heart built of many complex peices

She is in love with her friends

One large heart waiting with open arms
To congradulate her when she has accomplished things
To hold her when she cries
To listen to her problems
And is still there when she falls short


And its that group that has made life here possable
Its her smile for the day
Her emotion
Her motivation
Its her good morning
Her stability
Her sunshine

Without them life would be destitute
A waste land
Pins and needles in her feet
Burning tears that scorch chapped lips
Something she fears most
Being alone
Left in the dark
Placed with a being who knows her evry fear
What makes her jump
What keeps her up at night
The key to her undoing
So she could no longer be
She trusts that the hands of that masswill be there
To catch her
To keep her safe

She wants them to know
How much she loves them
How much they mean to her
How important they are
How necessary they are
What hell her life would be with out them
And even if she doesnt show it or say it all the time
It stands without boundries
Her love for them is uncomperable
And she doesnt ever want them to forget

I love you
