Sometimes there are no words....

Sometimes there are no words.
Sometimes it's too hard for me to express all of the things in my heart and on my mind.
Sometimes there are no words.
Sometimes there is a smile on my face and a tear in my heart.
Sometimes there are no words.
Sometimes my heart feels ready to burst from the love that I feel.
Sometimes there are no words. 

...Thank goodness there always lyrics......


"Everyone's Waiting"
I know all the lines to say
The part I’m expected to play
But in the reflection I am worlds away

As I put my costume on
Eyelashes one by one
Been doing this so long I can tie the knot
Behind my back

And everyone’s waiting
But it’s getting harder to hear what my heart is saying
Cos everyone’s waiting

"Just swallow and breathe," she says,
"Remember this ain’t for you it’s for them
And all of those painful lessons you’ve had to learn
You gotta use them now or never"

Cos everyone’s waiting
But it’s getting harder to hear
What my heart keeps saying
Turn it off, I wanna turn it all off

When everyone’s waiting
It makes it harder to hear what my heart keeps saying
Turn it off, I wanna turn it all off

But everyone’s waiting
I hear that answers appear when you just stand still
But make it all, how do you make it all stop
When everyone’s waiting?
Everyone's waiting.

"The Last Day on Earth"

In honor of the Mayans and all they have to say about today, it seems only appropriate to share this today:


The Last Day on Earth - Kate Miller-Heidke
Look downThe ground below is crumblingLook upThe stars are all exploding
It's the last day on earthIn my dreams, in my dreamsIt's the end of the worldAnd you've come back to me in my dreams
BetweenThe dust and the debrisThere's a lightSurrounding you and me
It's the last day on earthIn my dreams, in my dreamsIt's the end of the worldAnd you've come back to me in my dreams
And you hold me closerThan I can ever remember being heldI'm not afraid to sleep nowIf we can stay like this until
It's the last day on earthIn my dreams, in my dreamsIt's the end of the worldAnd you've come back to me
In my head I replay our conversationsOver and over 'til they feel like hallucinationsYou know me, I love to lose my mind
And every timeAnybody speaks your nameI still feel the sameI ache, I ache, I ache inside
I ache, I ache, I ache insideI ache, I ache, I ache insideI ache, I ache, I ache inside

Or perhaps you're more of an REM fan.  (They seem fine with it):


It's The End of The World by REM

That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes, an aeroplane -
Lenny Bruce is not afraid. Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn -
world serves its own needs, regardless of your own needs. Feed it up a knock,
speed, grunt no, strength no. Ladder structure clatter with fear of height,
down height. Wire in a fire, represent the seven games in a government for
hire and a combat site. Left her, wasn't coming in a hurry with the furies
breathing down your neck. Team by team reporters baffled, trump, tethered
crop. Look at that low plane! Fine then. Uh oh, overflow, population,
common group, but it'll do. Save yourself, serve yourself. World serves its
own needs, listen to your heart bleed. Tell me with the rapture and the
reverent in the right - right. You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright
light, feeling pretty psyched.

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.

Six o'clock - TV hour. Don't get caught in foreign tower. Slash and burn,
return, listen to yourself churn. Lock him in uniform and book burning,
blood letting. Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate. Light a candle,
light a motive. Step down, step down. Watch a heel crush, crush. Uh oh,
this means no fear - cavalier. Renegade and steer clear! A tournament,
a tournament, a tournament of lies. Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives
and I decline.

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.

The other night I tripped a nice continental drift divide. Mount St. Edelite.
Leonard Bernstein. Leonid Breshnev, Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs.
Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly bean, boom! You symbiotic, patriotic,
slam, but neck, right? Right.

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine...fine...

(It's time I had some time alone)

Maybe it's time to ....Begin Again



Begin Again by Taylor Swift

Took a deep breath in the mirror
He didn't like it when I wore high heels
But I do
Turn the lock and put my headphones on
He always said he didn't get this song
But I do, I do

Walked in expecting you'd be late
But you got here early and you stand and wave
I walk to you
You pull my chair out and help me in
And you don't know how nice that is
But I do

And you throw your head back laughing
Like a little kid
I think it's strange that you think I'm funny cause
He never did
I've been spending the last 8 months
Thinking all love ever does
Is break and burn and end
But on a Wednesday in a cafe
I watched it begin again

You said you never met one girl who
Had as many James Taylor records as you
But I do
We tell stories and you don't know why
I'm coming off a little shy
But I do

And you throw your head back laughing
Like a little kid
I think it's strange that you think I'm funny cause
He never did
I've been spending the last 8 months
Thinking all love ever does
Is break and burn and end
But on a Wednesday in a cafe
I watched it begin again

And we walked down the block, to my car
And I almost brought him up
But you start to talk about the movies
That your family watches every single Christmas
And I want to talk about that
And for the first time
What's past is past

And you throw your head back laughing
Like a little kid
I think it's strange that you think I'm funny cause
He never did
I've been spending the last 8 months
Thinking all love ever does
Is break and burn and end
But on a Wednesday in a cafe
I watched it begin again

But on a Wednesday in a cafe
I watched it begin again

A Little Bird


"A Little Bird" by Kasey Chambers


A little bird told me late last night 
If I hold my breath and do everything right 
You might come back 
If I colour my hair and I wear it down 
And I make you laugh like a circus clown 
You might come back 
And a little bird said with a wink of an eye 
If I beg real hard and I do not cry 
You might come back 
If I keep my opinion under my breath 
And I only bring it out when the master says 
You might come back 

Chorus: 
But I don't want you that bad 
No I don't want you that bad 

Well a little bird told me as plain as day 
If I change my name and I change my way 
You might come back 
If I sell my soul for the greater cause 
If I burn my records and I listen to yours 
You might come back 
And the little bird said in the middle of a dream 
If I shut my mouth and I don't make a scene 
You might come back 
If I cross my fingers and I curl my toes 
If I look like the other girls everybody knows 
You might come back 

Chorus 
But I don't want you that bad 
No I don't want you that bad 
No I don't want you that bad 
No I don't want you that bad 

Well a little bird told me 
A little bird told me 
A little bird told me 
A little bird told me 

A little bird told me 
A little bird told me 
A little bird told me 
A little bird told me

Nothing at all


"Nothing At All" by Kasey Chambers

One was the light in a candle
Two was the colour of the rain
Three was a fall in deeper
Four was a cry and shame
Five was a shiver in the winter
Six was a losing card
Seven was the hope I would never fall too hard

One was a breath under water
Two was a crash and burn
Three was a ghost of the lover
Four was a lot to learn
Five was the livin' in a cradle
Six was a mercy cry
Seven was the hope you would never say goodbye

You win
I lose
You leave with nothin' to prove
You rise, I fall
I leave with nothing
Nothing at all

One was a faith in a sorrow
Two was a waste of a dream
Three was a life in a bottle
Four was the last to believe
Five was a break in the weather
Six was back to the start
Seven was the hope it would never go this far

You win
I lose
You leave with nothin' to prove
You rise, I fall
I leave with nothing
Nothing at all

I was your waste time
You were my angel wing
I was your falling star
You were my everything

You win
I lose
You leave with nothin' to prove
You rise, I fall
I leave with nothing
Nothing at all

You win
I lose
You leave with nothin' to prove
You rise, I fall
I leave with nothing
Nothing at all

Nothing at all, Nothing at all
Nothing at all, Nothing at all
