“Next time around” by Little Joy 



One to many goals
The measure of your worth
Can sink your weight in gold
Sat by the ivory sail
The further out you look
The further out you’ll be    

It’s not enough to set the curve
With nothing ventured, nothing learned
The words I’ve said agin, still die

I’ll belong to you, it’s how it’s meant to be

Settle on your own
Sweeping dust from stone
With the letter “ohm”
Back where the hours roam
The simplest things they buy the thrill
Just by noticing at will

It’s not enough to set the turn
With nothing ventured nothing learned
It’s how it’s always been

(In Portuguese)
E onde a sorte ha de te levar, saiba o caminho e o fim mais que chegar
E quiera o dia ser, gentil a tua mao, aberta pra quem e

I’ll belong to you, it’s how it’s meant to be
It’s how it’s always been

What?

“For Reasons Unknown” by The Killers



I pack my case
I check my face
I look a little bit older
I look a little bit colder   

With one deep breath
And one big step
I move a little bit closer
I move a little bit closer

For reasons unknown…

I caught my stride
I flew and flied
I know if destiny’s kind
I’ve got the rest on my mind

But my heart
It don’t beat
It don’t beat the way it used to
And my eyes, they don’t see you no more
And my lips, they don’t kiss
They don’t kiss the way they used to
And my eyes don’t recognize you no more…

For reasons unknown
For reasons unknown

There was an open chair

We sat down in
The open chair
I said if destiny’s kind
I’ve got the rest on my mind

But my heart
It don’t beat
It don’t beat the way it used to
And my eyes, they don’t see you no more
And my lips, they don’t kiss
They don’t kiss the way they used to
And my eyes don’t recognize you at all

For reasons unknown
For reasons unknown

Said my heart it don’t beat
It don’t beat the way it used to
And my eyes don’t recognize
You no more

And my lips they don’t kiss
They don’t kiss the way they used to
And my eyes don’t recognize you
No more

For reasons unknown
For reasons unknown
For reasons unknown
For reasons unknown

1... That's all?

“This years love” by David Gray

This years love had better last
Heaven knows it’s high time
And I’ve been waiting on my own too long
But when you hold me like you do
It feels so right
I start to forget
How my heart gets torn
When that hurt gets thrown
Feeling like you can’t go on   

Turning circles when time again
It cuts like a knife oh yeah
If you love me got to know for sure
Cos it takes something more this time
Than sweet sweet lies
Before I open up my arms and fall
Losing all control
Every dream inside my soul
And when you kiss me
On that midnight street
Sweep me off my feet
Singing ain’t this life so sweet

This years love had better last
This years love had better last

So whose to worry
If our hearts get torn
When that hurt gets thrown
Don’t you know this life goes on
And won’t you kiss me
On that midnight street
Sweep me off my feet
Singing ain’t this life so sweet

This years love had better last
This years love had better last
This years love had better last
This years love had better last

"Grand Canyon"

On the subject of Uncategorized

The Grand Canyon beautiful place. You would think that a huge hole in the middle of nowhere should be less appealing to the eye but it’s completely the opposite. Well just wanted to share a few pictures that I took while I was there so you can see for yourself.

Ain’t no reason by Brett Dennen. He has an amazing voice and all his songs have a great message! lucky me I get to go see him in  concert March 28 yay!!!!



There ain’t no reason things are this way.
Its how they always been and they intend to stay.
I can’t explain why we live this way, we do it everyday. 
Preachers on the podium speakin’ of saints in seance,
Prophets on the sidewalk beggin’ for change,
Old ladies laughing from the fire escape, cursing my name.
I got a basket full of lemons and they all taste the same,
A window and a pigeon with a broken wing,
You can spend your whole life workin’ for something
Just to have it taken away.
People walk around pushing back their debts,
Wearing pay checks like necklaces and bracelets,
Talking ‘bout nothing, not thinking ‘bout death,
Every little heartbeat, every little breath.
People walk a tight rope on a razors edge
Carrying their hurt and hatred and weapons.
It could be a bomb or a bullet or a pen
Or a thought or a word or a sentence.    

There Ain’t no reason things are this way.
It’s how they always been and they intend to stay
I don’t know why I say the things I say, but I say them anyway.

But love will come set me free
Love will come set me free,I do believe 
Love will come set me free, I know it will
Love will come set me free, yes.    

Prison walls still standing tall,
Some things never change at all.
Keep on buildin’ prisons, gonna fill them all,
Keep on buildin’ bombs, gonna drop them all.
Working your fingers bear to the bone,
Breaking your back, make you sell your soul.
Like a lung that’s filled with coal, suffocatin’ slow.
The wind blows wild and I may move,
The politicians lie and I am not fooled.
You don’t need no reason or a three piece suit to argue the truth.
The air on my skin and the world under my toes,
Slavery stitched into the fabric of my clothes,
Chaos and commotion wherever I go, love I try to follow.

Love will come set me free
Love will come set me free, I do believe
Love will come set me free, I know it will
Love will come set me free, yes.

There ain’t no reason things are this way
It’s how they always been and they intend to stay
I can’t explain why we live this way, we do it everyday.
