Mae is playing on iTunes right now. The song is The Ocean. I love the calming, tranquil, yet not boring feel to this song (a lot of other Mae songs.) XD Don't you love it when the songs you're in the mood to listen to have lyrics that are completely relevant to your life? Here's the lyrics.
- You come over unannounced.
Silence broken by your voice in the dark.
I need you here tonight,
Just like the ocean needs the waves.
Fall around me now. (So fall around me now)
Like stars that shine and brighten the way.
I need you here tonight,
Just like this night it needs the rain. (Rain)
Mmmm... It's just a mellow, happy, uplifting song. Now iTunes switched to Wish You Were Here bu Incubus. XD How fitting to my current mood. Then again, I chose these songs for a playlist for when I want music to fit my "I miss you so much." mood. This song is pretty much written to, IMHO, narrate the feeling of finding a brief, but welcome sense of peace while you miss someone.
I've had a number of those times where, while you miss someone (actually, it's a bunch of people) to death and just really want to be there with them, you find temporary sanctuary doing something just to get your mind off of them.
Here's one -- I was swinging on the last unbroken swing on the playset in my yard. I was just swinging myself and just taking in my surroundings. For a while, I just felt at peace. Like, nothing could ever ruin that moment. I didn't think about anything or anyone. But of course, that didn't last long.
Another one -- I was laying in bed in my room and staring up at the ceiling. A blank, white, plain ceiling. I was swinging the golden butike lizard keychain from Kuya around my finger. No thoughts, nothing. Just a moment of zen, or whatever we can call that.
Now the song is This Photograph is Proof (I Know You Know) by Taking Back Sunday. I learned the intro to this on acoustic guitar. XD This song is slightly relevant to some of my thoughts and recollections, but I don't feel like typing that out. It's still a great song though. XD
OMG. It changed to my current favorite song -- The Night The Lights Went Out in NYC by The Ataris. You know, the song the lyric in my signature is from. <3 I'm going to post all the lyrics to this song. XD Why? Because almost every single word in this song perfectly captures my feelings.
The lights are out in the city tonight
So close your eyes, gaze up at the heavens
And see if you can point me out
If I could have one wish tonight
I'd wish upon a satellite
To bring me back to you
We spend our whole lives searching for
All the things we think we want
And never really knowing what we have
So many paths that we can take
To bring us to our destiny
Gaze up at the heavens
And see if you can point me out
If I could have one wish tonight
I'd wish upon a satellite
To bring me back to you
We spend our whole lives searching for
All the things we think we want
And never really knowing what we have
Be careful what you wish for
These stars are fading out.
I love this song so so so much. ;---;<3 It also brings back memories of the Philippines. Actually, everything I do brings back memories of the cousins and all the good times with the family in the Philippines.
Lmfao. It's Ohio is for Lovers by Hawthorne Heights. I believe I mentioned somewhere in everything I've written on Gaia that I listen to the bands everyone doesn't like. XD I'm not ashamed to say that I sang my heart out when they played this song at the Bamboozle. They were really good live. The frontsman is rather good-looking. XD Not like I'm obsessive over him or anything. He's just a good-looking character. But no one is better looking than my cousins, bish. That's just biased, you know me. Then again, everyone has a thing for saying Relative/Person X is the shiznit or whatever.
Mhm. Our Revoltion by Halifax. The first time I heard this song was live. Halifax was amazing. HELL, YEAAAHHH! Good times, good times. Thing is, the music video for this song was a let down. It's just a bunch of girls and the people.
Alright. This blog is fairly long, probably because of the lyrics. Knil wants the computer now. (Her lappy is on the brink of death, yes.)
I'm out.
