Wonderful Life - by Black

Here I go out to sea again
The sunshine fills my hair
And dreams hang in the air
Gulls in the sky and in my blue eyes
You know it feels unfair
There's magic everywhere

Look at me standing
Here on my own again
Up straight in the sunshine

No need to run and hide
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
No need to laugh and cry
It's a wonderful, wonderful life

-----------------

I'm glad that you're sentimental.

MLCS "feelings" are those same feeling you had as a preteen or teen

Which also explains why W is all about the radio right now. You should see her flip the channels, and get excited when her new favorite sex-rap artist plays that song that she loves now. And she's all about MTV, on all the time. She is identifying with the teen-emotions. She is giving full tilt to her emotions, that she "bottled" up for so many years (really?!?). Yeah, no more christian music for her. What's more troubling, is seeing her sing-along-with-my-pre-teen. Neither of whom I think should be listening to that garbage. W even told me "now I can listen to whatever I want".

There are quite a few songs that I feel are directly related to mid-life crisis.  This song by Mika speaks volumes on the confusion.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaEPCsQ4608

Eleanor Rigby lyrics
Songwriters: Mccartney, Paul; Lennon, John;

Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Eleanor Rigby, picks up the rice
In the church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream

Waits at the window, wearing the face
That she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Father McKenzie, writing the words
of a sermon that no one will hear
No one comes near

Look at him working, darning his socks
In the night when there's nobody there
What does he care?
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/b/beatles-lyrics/eleanor-rigby-lyrics.html]

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Eleanor Rigby, died in the church
And was buried along with her name
Nobody came

Father McKenzie, wiping the dirt
From his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved

All the lonely people
(Ah, look at all the lonely people)
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
(Ah, look at all the lonely people)
Where do they all belong?

I've Made a Mess of Me - Switchfoot

I am my own affliction
I am my own disease
There ain't no drug that they could sell
Oh, there ain't no drug to make me well

(There ain't no drug)
There ain't no drug
There ain't no drug
It's not enough
The sickness is myself

I've made a mess of me
I want to get back the rest of me
I've made a mess of me
I want to spend the rest of my life alive
I've made a mess of me
I want to get back the rest of me
I've made a mess of me
I want to spend the rest of my life alive
The rest of my life alive

We lock our souls in cages
We hide inside our shells
It's hard to free the ones you love
Oh, when you can't forgive yourself
Yeah, forgive yourself

(There ain't no drug)
There ain't no drug
There ain't no drug
The sickness is myself

I've made a mess of me
I want to get back the rest of me
I've made a mess of me
I want to spend the rest of my life alive
I've made a mess of me
I want to reverse this tragedy
I've made a mess of me
I want to spend the rest of my life alive
The rest of my life alive

Oh, right
And there ain't no drug
There ain't no drug
There ain't no drug
No drug to make me well
There ain't no drug
It's not enough
I'm breaking up
The sickness is myself
The sickness is myself

I've made a mess of me
I want to get back the rest of me
I've made a mess of me
I want to spend the rest of my life alive
I've made a mess of me
I want to reverse this tragedy
I've made a mess of me
I want to spend the rest of my life alive
The rest of my life alive

[With Gods Help!]

This track was sung at the 2011 awards ceremony, shes called Adele and she wrote this after her relationship broke down, she broke down after singing it :

Your Biggest Mistake - Ellie Goulding

Take cover
Signs don't show
You drove me off the road
But you let go
'Cause your hope is gone
And every question fades away

It's a shame you don't know what you're running from
Would your bones have to break
And your lights turn off
Would it take the end of time
To hear your heart's false start?

You know this is your biggest mistake
What a waste, what a waste, what a waste
And of all the things you never explained
You know this is your biggest mistake

You tread water
Fighting for the air in your lungs
Move, move closer
Maybe you can right all your wrongs
But you let go
'Cause your hope is gone
And every answer fades away

It's a shame you don't know what you're running from
Would your bones have to break
And your lights turn off
Would it take the end of time
To hear your heart's false start?

You know this is your biggest mistake
What a waste, what a waste, what a waste
And of all the things you never explained
You know this is your biggest mistake

Wipe the mud spray from your face
Stop the engine, stop pretending
Wipe the mud spray from your face
Stop the engine
Stop pretending that you're still breathing

It's a shame you don't know what you're running from
Would your bones have to break
And your lights turn off
Would it take the end of time
To hear your heart's false start?

You know this is your biggest mistake
What a waste, what a waste, what a waste
And of all the things you never explained
You know this is your biggest mistake.

[Metal]

Trusting,
I love Switchfoot.

Chloe1977 & Still,
Thanks for turning me to Skillet.
D11 likes them a lot, and we listened to the whole album yesterday.
This is D11's favorite song about our sit. We have both woken-up in the morning thinking it was a dream, and then -bam- right back to the painful reality. Sad to think that she feels this song, Sad to see her pain in all of this too. Only 11.

Skillet: Don't Wake Me

I went to bed I was thinking about you
Ain't the same since I'm living without you
All the memories are getting colder
All the things that I wanna do over
Went to bed I was thinking about you
I wanna talk and laugh like we used to
When I see you in my dreams at night
It's so real but it's in my mind

[Pre:]
And now
I guess
This is as good as it gets

[Chorus:]
Don't wake me
'Cause I don't wanna leave this dream
Don't wake me
'Cause I never seem to stay asleep enough
When it's you I'm dreaming of
I don't wanna wake up
Don't wake me
We're together just you and me
Don't wake me
'Cause we're happy like we used to be
I know I've gotta let you go
But don't wake me

I went to bed I was thinking about you
And how it felt when I finally found you
It's like a movie playing over in my head
Don't wanna look 'cause i know how it ends
All the words that I said that I wouldn't say
All the promises I made that I wouldn't break
It's last call, last song, last dance
'Cause I can't get you back, can't get a second chance

And now, I guess
This is as good as it gets

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
These dreams of you keep on growing stronger
It ain't a lot but it's all I have
Nothing to do but keep sleeping longer
Don't wanna stop cause I want you back

[Chorus]

I went to bed I was thinking about you
‘Cause I don’t wanna leave this dream
It ain’t the same since I’m living without you.
‘Cause I never seem to stay asleep enough
I know I’ve gotta let you go
But I don’t wanna wake up.

[Bewildered]

Mine by Ladt Antebellum
Need you Know
http://goo.gl/LQOv

Picture perfect memories
Scattered all around the floor
Reaching for the phone 'cause
I can't fight it anymore

And I wonder if I
Ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time

It's a quarter after one
I'm all alone
And I need you now
Said I wouldn't call
But I've lost all control
And I need you now

And I don't know how
I can do without
I just need you now

Another shot of whiskey
Can't stop looking at the door
Wishing you'd come sweeping
In the way you did before

And I wonder if I
Ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time

It's a quarter after one
I'm a little drunk
And I need you now
Said I wouldn't call
But I've lost all control
And I need you now

And I don't know how
I can do without
I just need you now

Whoa, whoa
Guess I'd rather hurt
Than feel nothing at all

It's a quarter after one
I'm all alone
And I need you now
And I said I wouldn't call
But I'm a little drunk
And I need you now

And I don't know how
I can do without
I just need you now
I just need you now

Oh baby, I need you now

This performance of "someone like you"  by Adele came on the tv the other day while I was doing something else - it stopped me in my tracks and sent shivers up my spine - heartbreaking but a beautiful beautiful performance"Someone Like You"

I heard
That you're settled down
That you
Found a girl
And you're
Married now

I heard
That your dreams came true.
Guess she gave you things
I didn't give to you

Old friend
Why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back
Or hide from the light

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over

Never mind
I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me I beg
I remember you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead."
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead,
Yeah.

You know how
The time flies
Only yesterday
It was the time of our lives
We were born and raised
In a summer haze
Bound by the surprise
Of our glory days

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over, yeah.

Never mind
I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me I beg
I remember you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead"

Nothing compares
No worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes
And memories made.
Who would have known
How bittersweet
This would taste?

Never mind
I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me I beg
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead"

Never mind
I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
Don't forget me I beg
I remember you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead"

Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead
