I Believe I Can Fly

When I was younger, I decided to represent how I felt towards my brothers and their Autism (mental disability) by listening to this song. It stills tears me up when I hear it, because it reminds me that no matter what, they are still capable of living their lives the best way they can, and they inspire me to try my hardest every day, no matter what the obstacles are.

Random Lyrics I Wrote #2

It's time to listen to the sound
It's time to listen to the songs that we're playing
It's time to listen to the drums
The beats that echo off the walls of your cranium

We're so confused
Please tell us what to do
Please tell us all the rules of this game
We're tired of being serious
(Why so serious?)
I think it's time for us to play

So throw off your ties with the world and come climb to the sky with us
We're tired of the pain
We're all going insane
It's time for us to find a new universe
I'm sorry
(I'm sorry)

Random Lyrics I Wrote #1

you gotta roll with the punches!
you can't just stand still
because the more you take, the more you shake
you're losing your will

don't fight back!
cause you'll only end up stuck!
you gotta keep rolling
or else you're fucked!

Best Of You by Foo Fighters (Boyce Avenue acoustic cover)

 I know this isn't my writing, but this song says it all for me, and Boyce Avenue gives it the emotion I feel.


Best Of You by Foo Fighters (Boyce Avenue acoustic cover)

I've got another confession to make
I'm your fool
Everyone's got their chains to break
Holdin' you

Were you born to resist, or be abused?

Is someone getting the best
The best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best
The best, the best, the best of you?

Or are you gone and onto someone new?

I needed somewhere to hang my head
Without your noose
You gave me something that I didn't have
But had no use
I was too weak to give in
Too strong to lose

My heart is under arrest again
But I'll break loose
My head is giving me life or death
But I can't choose
I swear I'll never give in
I refuse

Is someone getting the best
The best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best
The best, the best, the best of you?

Has someone taken your faith?
It's real, the pain you feel
You trust, you must confess

Is someone getting the best
The best, the best, the best of you?

Has someone taken your faith?
It's real, the pain you feel
The life, the love
You'd die to heal
The hope that starts
The broken hearts
You trust, you must confess

Is someone getting the best
The best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best
The best, the best, the best of you?

I've got another confession my friend
I'm no fool
I'm getting tired of starting again
Somewhere new

Were you born to resist, or be abused?
I swear I'll never give in, I refuse

Is someone getting the best
The best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best
The best, the best, the best of you?
Has someone taken your faith?
It's real, the pain you feel
You trust, you must confess

Is someone getting the best
The best, the best, the best of you?

When words fail, music speaks.

Okay Okay this is my last blog today I swear (technically it's tomorrow so ha!). I just had to comment on this:

When words fail, music speaks.

This is pure blasphemy to me. I mean, sure I've used lyrics as my Facebook status numerous times, and even put a song on repeat because it said exactly what I was feeling. But I don't think that music is taking place of words then because THE MUSIC USES WORDS. I think what people mean to say is "When OUR words fail, music speaks for us." Sometimes we can't phrase or express what we want to say, but with music, it's mainly the lyrics we use to express our feelings for us. However in some situations, when you're really sad or pissed or happy, you just blast the song because the beat or melody show what your mood is. But when people use the line "When words fail, music speaks" they mean the lyrics, and I just think it's kind of redundant.
