Words of a Poet

Oh Well Oh Well
by Mayday Parade

When you’re alone, do you think of me?
And my diamond rings thrown out to sea
And when you love, do you love for me?
Like harmony, a never ending dream

Oh well, oh well
I still hope for the best
Say goodbye and send me off with a kiss farewell
And I promise I’ll be just as strong as I can be
Maybe you could get some sleep tonight

So here’s your song, it’s twisting me
I’d give anything to make you scream
And I’ll just smile and make believe I don’t feel a thing
That doesn’t work for me

Oh well, oh well
Guess I’ll see you in hell
There’s a pretty little picture that’s in my head
And I’m starting to dream
Changing colors while I sleep
Maybe I’m just wasting time

Sit still and listen to the soundtrack
I’ll tell you how I took one straight through the heart
And it’s not easy to talk about
So we all scream loud

And that was it, I had made it clean just across the street with my new wings
So I’ll just fly and hope that I remember the good times when it’s done
Oh well, oh well
I can’t live with myself
As I’m climbing in your window to get to your bed
And I’ll be what you need
You can call me anything
Just as long as we’re still friends

Sit still and listen to the soundtrack
I’ll tell you how I took one straight through the heart
And it’s not easy to talk about
So we all sing

When she smiles, it’s got nothing to do with me
I’m not the one who sings her to sleep
And I’ve been talking to God
Asking for just a little help with you
But it’s hopeless

It’s not the first time, but this one really carved it in
Tell your new friends that they don’t know you like I do
It’s over
I wanna see you again
I wanna feel it again

Oh, it’s not the first time, but this one really carved it in
Tell your new friends that no one knows you like I do
It’s over
I wanna see you again
I wanna feel it again

I’ll keep you warm, safe in my arms
Till heaven calls, keep holding on

Apparently this has been her more popular song so far, but I still prefer Messed Up In The Head. I added the youtube at the bottom of this post again.

Beggar
by Alexandra Govere

I am just a beggar
who’ll accept anything I can get
and if i must i’ll steal the rest, it’s true

so you can let me have your heart
or i can snatch it in the dark
but either way, i’m getting all of you

gimme everything that you got
gimme every piece of your heart
gimme everything that i want
and don’t ever tell me to stop

yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

used to have a better name
before i gave myself away
and clearly, i gained nothing in return

now all i wanna do is take
a hundred hearts, and watch ’em break
and how you feel is none of my concern

gimme everything that you got
gimme every piece of your heart
gimme everything that i want
and don’t ever tell me to stop

yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

remember when we lived for each other, like
like when we used to give to each other right
you and i swam in the summer nights
so lovey dovey, we kissed in the candlelight
love turned into like
turned into fights
turned into goodbye
turned to attack
turned into black
now it’s regret, and i want you back, just

gimme everything that you got
gimme every piece of your heart
gimme everything that i want
and don’t ever tell me to stop

yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

If you watched the last episode of the real world you heard this song and probably liked it. After doing a search I found her Youtube channel, but no lyrics posted! Below I think I am pretty close to the song. I also included the Youtube video at the end.

Messed Up In The Head
by Alexandra Govere
featuring Pat Monahan and Kevin Whan

if you see a shadow
while you’re warm in bed
will you pull your blankets over your head
like i do
when you hear the wind blow
does it make you scared?
will you throw a pillow over your ears?
like i will

i don’t need no superhero
i don’t fall for supermen
i believe true love is equal
i want somebody bad
i want somebody as
me me messed up in the head as
me me messed up, and as scared as
me me messed up in the head as
i want somebody sad
so he can understand me

i can tell you’re crazy
cause i’m crazy too
maybe we could feel totally sane
together
i don’t need amazing
all i need is you
baby we could be totally plain
forever

i don’t need no superhero
i don’t fall for supermen
i believe true love is equal
i want somebody bad
i want somebody as
me me messed up in the head as
me me messed up, and as scared as
me me messed up in the head as
i want somebody sad
so he can understand me

maybe i’m a looney after all
throw me a room with padded walls
tell me could you fall for someone crazy
i’m crazy yeah
i don’t wanna take these silly pills
but they say my babe ain’t really real
got me looking stupid, foolish
is there anybody who is

This isn’t the first Real World cast member I have featured for their songs and lyrics. I also have some Brianna Taylor lyrics posted!

Ohio Is For Lovers Lyrics
by Hawthorne Heights

Hey there,
I know it’s hard to feel like I don’t care at all.
Where you are and how you feel.
With these lights off as these wheels
keep rolling on and on. (and on and on and on…)
Slow things down or speed them up.
Not enough or way too much. (and on and on and on…)
How are you when I’m gone?

[Chorus:]
And I can’t make it on my own.
(And I can’t make it on my own.)
Because my heart is in Ohio.
So cut my wrists and black my eyes.
(Cut my wrists and black my eyes)
So I can fall asleep tonight, or die.
Because you kill me.
You know you do, you kill me well.
You like it too, and I can tell.
You never stop until my final breath is gone.

Spare me just three last words.
“I love you” is all she heard.
I’ll wait for you, but I can’t wait forever.
[x2]

[Chorus:]
And I can’t make it on my own.
(And I can’t make it on my own.)
Because my heart is in Ohio.
So cut my wrists and black my eyes.
(Cut my wrists and black my eyes)
So I can fall asleep tonight, or die.
Because you kill me.
You know you do, you kill me well.
You like it too, and I can tell.
You never stop until my final breath is gone.

You know you do, you kill me well.
You like it too, and I can tell.
You never stop until my final breath is gone.

(YOU…KILL…ME…WELL)
So cut my wrists and black my eyes.
My final breath is gone
So I can fall asleep tonight

[Chorus:]
And I can’t make it on my own.
(And I can’t make it on my own.)
Because my heart is in Ohio.
So cut my wrists and black my eyes.
(Cut my wrists and black my eyes)
So I can fall asleep tonight, or die.
Because you kill me.
You know you do, you kill me well.
You like it too, and I can tell.
You never stop until my final breath is gone.

(YOU…KILL…ME…WELL)
You know you do, you kill me well.
You like it too, and I can tell.
You never stop until my final breath is gone.

I heard a few lines on this watching Ray and I had to look up the lyrics and hear the whole song.

You Don’t Know Me by Ray Charles

You give your hand to me
And then you say, “Hello.”
And I can hardly speak,
My heart is beating so.
And anyone can tell
You think you know me well.
Well, you don’t know me.
(no you don’t know me)
No you don’t know the one
Who dreams of you at night;
And longs to kiss your lips
And longs to hold you tight
Oh I’m just a friend.
That’s all I’ve ever been.
Cause you don’t know me.
(no you don’t know me)
For I never knew the art of making love,
Though my heart aches with love for you.
Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by.
A chance that you might love me too.
(love me too)
You give your hand to me,
And then you say, “Goodbye.”
I watched you walk away,
Beside the lucky guy
Oh, you’ll never ever know
The one who loved you so.
Well, you don’t know me
(For I never knew the art of making love, )
(Though my heart aches with love for you. )
Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by.
A chance that you might love me too.
(love me too)
Oh, you give your hand to me,
And then you say, “Goodbye.”
I watched you walk away,
Beside the lucky guy
Oh, you’ll never ever know
The one who loved you so.
Well, you don’t know me
(you don’t love me, you don’t know me)

This song was featured on Teen Mom 2, the season finale. Right after it was there I searched for it, as did many others. Today Automatic Empire uploaded a Youtube of the single.

The lyrics are pretty simple, but I couldn’t find them anywhere. I liked the song so I typed them up in case anyone else wanted them as well.

Where Do I Go? Lyrics
by Automatic Empire

Who am I supposed to be
It’s not easy when you’re free

Who am I suppose to be… When I’m lonely
When I need
Where could I run to
Who could I turn to
Where do I run to now

Where could I go
Who do I know
Where do I run to now

Who am I suppose to be when I’m angry… When I’m mean
Who am I suppose to be when I’m lonely… When I need

Who do I turn to
Who do I run to
Who do I turn to now

Where could I go… and who do I know
where do I run to now

Where could I run to
Who could I turn to
where do I run to now

Where can I go… and who do I know
Who can I turn to now

You can download the single or album on Amazon.

I always think the Disney movie songs they sing are a bit cheezy. But if you look past that into the lyrics some of them are pretty nice. Recently I saw Tangled and this song (besides the singing) was nice.

I See the Light Lyrics
From Tangled (Mandy Moore and Zachary Levi)

All those days
Watching from the windows
All those years
Outside looking in
All that time
Never even knowing
Just how blind I’ve been

Now I’m here
Blinking in the starlight
Now I’m here
Suddenly I see
Standing here
It’s oh, so clear
I’m where I’m meant to be

And at last, I see the light
And it’s like the fog has lifted
And at last, I see the light
And it’s like the sky is new
And it’s warm and real and bright
And the world has somehow shifted
All at once
Everything looks different
Now that I see you

All those days
Chasing down a daydream
All those years
Living in a blur
All that time
Never truly seeing
Things the way they were
Now she’s here
Shining in the starlight
Now she’s here
Suddenly I know
If she’s here
It’s crystal clear
I’m where I’m meant to go

And at last, I see the light
And it’s like the fog has lifted
And at last, I see the light
And it’s like the sky is new

And it’s warm and real and bright
And the world has somehow shifted
All at once
Everything is different
Now that I see you
Now that I see you

Eminem came back with a great CD, Recovery, that I just started listening to. There are a few songs I like, but this one is stuck in my head

Talkin’ 2 Myself Lyrics

Ayo Before I start this song man
I just want to thank everybody for being so patient
And baring with me over these last couple of years
While I figure this shit out

Is anybody out there?
It feels like I’m talkin to myself
No one seems to know my struggle
And everything I come from
Can anybody hear me?
It guess I keep talkin to myself
It feels like I’m going insane
Am I the one who’s crazy?

So why in the world do I feel so alone
Nobody but me, I’m on my own
Is there anyone out there
who feels the way I feel
That there is then let me in and let me know I’m not the only one

I went away I guess to open up some lanes
But there was no one who even knew what I was going through growin’ pains
Hatred was flowing through my veins
On the verge of going insane
I almost made a song dissin Lil Wayne
It’s like I was jealous of him cause the attention he was gettin’
I felt horrible about myself
He was spittin’ and I wasn’t
Anyone who was buzzin back then coulda got it
Almost went at Kanye too
God it feels like I’m goin’ psychotic
Thank god that I didn’t do it
I would of had my ass handed to me
And I knew it but proof wasn’t here to see me through it
Im in the booth poppin another pill tryna talk myself into it
Are you stupid? You gon’ start dissin people for no reason?
Especially when you can’t even write a decent punchline even
You’re lying to yourself, you’re slowly dying, you’re denying
Your health is declining with your self esteem, you’re crying out for help

Marshall you’re no longer the man, thats a bitter pill to swallow
All I know is some wallowin, self-loathing and hollow
Bottoms up of pill bottle maybe i’ll hit my bottom tomorrow
My sorrow echos in the hall though
But I must be talkin to the wall though
I don’t see nobody else (I guess I keep talkin to myself)
But all these other rappers suck is all that I know
I’ve turned into a hater, I’ve put up a false bravado
But Marshall is not a egomaniac that’s not his motto
He’s not a desperado he’s desperate its startin to bottle inside em
One foot on the brake one on the throttle
Fallin asleep with writers block in the parking lot of mcdonalds
But instead of feeling sorry for yourself do something about it
Admit you got a problem you brain is clouded you pouted long enough
It isn’t them its you, you fuckin baby
Quit worrying about what they do and do fuckin shady
I’m fucking going crazy

So I pick up myself off the ground and fuckin swim before I drown
Hit my bottom so hard I bounce twice suffice this time around
It’s different them last two albums didn’t count
Encore I was on drugs, relapse I was flushing em out
I’ve come up to make it up to you no more fucking around
I’ve got something to prove to fans I feel like i let em down
So please accept my apology I finally feel like im back to normal
Let me formally reintroduce myself to you for those of you who don’t know
The new mes back to the old me and homie I don’t show no
Signs of slowin up, pullin up, blowin up, all over no mo
My life is no longer a movie but the shows aint over homos
I’m back with a vengeance homie weezy keep ya head up
TI keep ya head up, Kanye keep ya head up
Don’t let up, keep slayin em
Rest in Peace to DJ AM
Cause I know what its like
I struggle with this shit every single day

So there it is, damn, feels like i just woke up or something
Guess I just forgot who the fucvk I was man
Ayo, and to anybody I thought about going at, It was never nothing personal
Just some shit that I was going through
And to the rest of you, I’m back!

I’ve been meaning to post these lyrics, I like the song.

Half Life Lyrics by Sneaker Pimps

Half life wastes before it goes
It’s funny how your bee sting touch
Never leaves me whole
It’s not enough to stay here almost trying
You keep your last laugh watch this dying
It’s just your half time vertigo
And if you want an answer
I don’t know

If you had completed me
Don’t think I’d be pleased with you
Don’t think I’d complete with you
With half of me to take

Half life nothing I’d call home
It’s lucky how these phantom limb
Bee stings never show
It’s not enough to leave this falling kindly
You burn my star down twice as brightly
It’s just your half light undertow
But if you need forgiveness
I don’t know

If you had completed me
Don’t think I’d be pleased with you
Don’t think I’d complete with you
With half of me to take

Half light breaks with nothing wrong
Just a corner of my bed
Where you don’t belong
It’s kind of you to notice no one’s dying
You had your last laugh almost crying
It’s just your half life long to know
And if you need a reason so it goes

If you had completed me
Don’t think I’d be pleased with you
Don’t think I’d complete with you
With half of me to take

I didn’t know that Taking Back Sunday had a new CD out (New Again
) until I was watching music videos today. This is their newest single out. The music video is pretty weird, but interesting.

Sink Into Me by Taking Back Sunday

Hey! [x6]

C’mon tell me that you’re better
And you rather just forget
That things have gone so far
Yeah, tell me that you’re better
And you rather just forget
That things have gone too far, oh

You’re all I see
Sink into me
Sharpen your teeth
Sink into me
(Sink into me)
Sink in, sink in

Well I’d like to see our roles reversed
To watch you hang on every word
I’d like to see you have your way…
I keep my grammar well rehearsed
Correct each stutter, every slur
C’mon and have your way with me…

Now tell me that you’re better
And you rather just forget
Yeah things have gone so far
You tell me that you’re better
And you rather just forget
Yeah, things have gone too far, hey!

Hey! [x12]

You’re all I see
Sink into me
Sharpen your teeth
Sink into me
(Sink into me)
Sink in, sink in

Well I’d like to see our roles reversed
To watch you hang on every word
I’d like to see you have your way…
I keep my grammar well rehearsed
Correct each stutter, every slur
C’mon and have your way with me
C’mon and have your way with me…

I’d like to be a note, the kind
You could sing but don’t because you’re shy
That way I live inside your throat
And hang from every word you…spoke

HEY!

Hey! [x12]

You’re all I see
Sink into me
Sharpen your teeth
Sink into me
(Sink into me)
Sink in, sink in

I’d like to see you have your way
Come have your way with me
(And hang from every word you spoke)
I’d like to see you have your way
Come have your way with me
(Sink into me)
