    "If he can't sleep how will he ever dream" - bad night sleep last night - this song is AWESOME - life is so full of pressure - I start every day with a jog and my PJ section of songs - always start with Given to Fly - love it!!! Would love to know the meaning though

    When I first heard this song I was amazed it was on a b-sides compillation.

    Rise. Life is in motion. I'm stuck in line.
    Oh rise. You can't be neutral on a moving train.
    One day... the symptoms fade. Think I'll throw these pills away.
    And if hope could grow from dirt like me. It can be done.

    Won't let the light escape from me.
    Won't let the darkness swallow me.

    About 4 years ago I lost a friend that took his own life. I remember this song, although the lyrics are very plain and simple, in the context of the music relaxed my mind a bit in a very difficult time.
    Don't it make you smile?
    Don't it make you smile?
    When the sun don't shine? (Shine at all)
    Don't it make you smile?

    Don't it make you smile?
    Don't it make me smile?
    When the sun don't shine, it don't shine at all
    Don't it make me smile?

    I miss you already... I miss you always
    I miss you already... I miss you all day
    This is how I feel...

    I miss you already... I miss you always
    Three crooked hearts and swirls all around... I miss you all day

    **Life sucks sometimes...**

    Don't you think you oughtta rest?
    Don't you think you oughtta lay you head down?
    Don't you think you want to sleep?
    Don't you think you oughtta lay your head down
    Tonight?

    Don't you think you've done enough?
    Oh, don't you think you've got enough? well maybe...
    You don't think there's time to stop
    There's time enough for you to lay your head down,
    Tonight, tonight

    Let it wash away
    All those yesterdays

    What are you running from?
    Taking pills to get along
    Creating walls to call your own
    So no one catches you?
    Drifting off and doing all the things...
    That we... all do

    Let them wash away
    All those yesterdays
    All those yesterdays
    All those paper plates
    All those yesterdays

    You've got time... you've got time to escape
    There's still time... it's no crime to escape
    It's no crime to escape... it's no crime to escape
    There's still time, so escape
    It's no crime, crime..
    If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.

    All hail the lucky ones, I refer to those in love, yeah
    If you're my only one, so could you only one?
    I want to be your one, enough...
    Your one...your one...your one...

    :)
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    the sun was in clout the sun looked out exposed a trail of mist and spout
    ships followed the aciently deceiving friends under the sea.

    they wont fight back, im sure they know how.
    means they love, or are too proud

    they swim, its really free, its a beuatiful thing to see
    they sing... ( vedder adds here, its amazing)

    hunters of land hunters of see exploit anything for money
    i refer to anybody who takes advantage of what that is free

    take their lives sell their parts, but theres not taking of there hearts.
    (kind of like the war in lebanon right now)
    if i was lost at sea that harpoon boat in front of me, its the whale id like to be.
    "If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace." John Lennon

    My god its been so long, never dreamed you'd return, but now here you are, and here i am.

    i have been quoting/thinking about this line endlessly lately..so obviously, in my mind . . .


    How I choose to feel,... Is how I am.
    How I choose to feel,... Is how I am.


    sooooo true! :)
    Stay with me...

    "You can spend your time alone re-digesting past regrets
    Or you can come to terms and realize
    You're the only one who cannot forgive yourself
    Makes much more sense, to live in the present tense"

    very simple yet VERY meaningful

    "Young men they pretend / old men comprehend"

    Seeing as how I'm right in the middle of young and old that line gets me every time.
    "Hello Oregonians. Hello Washingtonians. Hello Portland..where the fuck are we? We're in Ridgefield!"

    I'm gone

    Long gone
    This time I'm letting go of it all
    So long
    Cause this time I'm gone

    In the far off distance
    As my tail-lights fade
    No one thinks to witness
    But they will someday

    Feel like a question is forming
    and the answers far
    I will be what i could be
    Once I get out of this town

    For the lights of this city
    They have lost all feeling
    Gonna leave em all behind me
    Cause this time

    I'm gone


    Just because I am moving in two weeks to what I hope will be a brighter future...don't know why I am nervous about it
    I got scratches all over my arms, one for each day since I fell apart.

    Me you wouldn't recall for I'm not my former.

    "She seems to be stronger, but what they want her to feel is weak. She could play pretend , she could join the game, oh , she could be another joke."

    "I'll not loose my Faith . its an inside job today. oh i know this one thing well."
    A piece of my heart goes out with every single one of them. A PIECE OF MY HEART!!!

    And the days, they linger on
    And every night, what I'm waiting for
    Is the real possibility I may meet you in my dream
    Stay with me...

    To myself I surrender
    To the one I'll never please
    But I still try to run on
    No, I still try to run on
    But it's all or none
    All or none.
    We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.

    A man lies in his bed, in a room with no door
    He waits hoping for a presence, something, anything, to enter
    After spending half his life searching, he still felt as blank
    As the ceiling at which he's staring
    He's alive, but feels absolutely nothing
    So, is he?
    When he was six he believed that the moon overhead followed him
    By nine he had deciphered the illusion, trading magic for fact
    No trade-backs...
    So this is what it's like to be an adult
    If he only knew now what he knew then...

    I'm open
    I'm open
    Come in
    Come in
    Come in
    Come in

    I'm open
    I'm open
    Come in
    Come in
    Come in
    Come in

    Lying sideways atop crumpled sheets and no covers
    He decides to dream...
    Dream up a new self... for himself
    If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.
