Just another lemon tree?

I'm sitting here in the boring room
It's just another rainy Sunday afternoon
I'm wasting my time
I got nothing to do
I'm hanging around
I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever happens and I wonder

I'm driving around in my car
I'm driving too fast
I'm driving too far
I'd like to change my point of view
I feel so lonely
I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever happens and I wonder

I wonder how
I wonder why
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree
I'm turning my head up and down
I'm turning turning turning turning turning around
And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree

I'm sitting here
I miss the power
I'd like to go out taking a shower
But there's a heavy cloud inside my head
I feel so tired
Put myself into bed
Well, nothing ever happens and I wonder

Isolation is not good for me
Isolation I don't want to sit on the lemon-tree

I'm steppin' around in the desert of joy
Baby anyhow I'll get another toy
And everything will happen and you wonder

I wonder how
I wonder why
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree
I'm turning my head up and down
I'm turning turning turning turning turning around
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree
And I wonder, wonder

I wonder how
I wonder why
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
And all that I can see, and all that I can see, and all that I can see
Is just a yellow lemon-tree

Have you ever thought about what protects our hearts?

Have you ever thought about what protects our hearts?
Just a cage of rib bones and other various parts.
So it's fairly simple to cut right through the mess,
And to stop the muscle that makes us confess.

And we are so fragile,
And our cracking bones make noise,
And we are just,
Breakable, breakable, breakable girls and boys.

You fasten my seatbelt because it is the law.
In your two ton death trap I finally saw.
A piece of love in your face that bathed me in regret.
Then you drove me to places I'll never forget.

And we are so fragile,
And our cracking bones make noise,
And we are just,
Breakable, breakable, breakable girls and boys.

And we are so fragile,
And our cracking bones make noise,
And we are just,
Breakable, breakable, breakable girls-
Breakable, breakable, breakable girls-
Breakable, breakable, breakable girls and boys.

"Bitter"

In my heartsent my confession my condolence,
You're indefinite you're incompetent inconsiderate.
You're so childish,
I will push you out of what is real out of my head.
You can stick and drown at your residence of dissapointments,
Are of yours to come.
So embrace them oh my shallow one today,
If I could change anything then I would change everything.
These bitter days shall remain.
I don't ask for your forgiveness I don't care much for your actress.
That's just you though shallow and selfish.
So I go now oh my hollow one today.
If I could change anything then I would change everything.
These bitter days shall remain.
You carry your blues behind your eyes,
Don't flatter yourself I will survive.
So carry your blues your own denial.
Your feathers are gone you'll never fly.
If I could change anything,
Then I would wipe the years away.
If I could change anything,
Then I would wipe the years away.
If I could change anything,
Then I would change everything.
These bitter days shall remain.
Since you're gone I'm much better than you.
You carry your blues behind your eyes,
Don't flatter yourself I will survive.
So carry your blues your own denial.
Your feathers are gone you'll never fly.
She'll never fly.

A Relient K moment...

I've been listening to this song: Who I am hates who I've been. Its very interesting how the acoustic version makes the song so much meaninful rather than the usual "punk" version. This is what came to my mind...


I watched the proverbial sunrise
Coming up over the Pacific and
You might think I'm losing my mind,
But I will shy away from the specifics...

'cause I don't want you to know where I am
'cause then you'll see my heart
In the saddest state it's ever been.

This is no place to try and live my life.

[Pre-Chorus]
Stop right there. That's exactly where I lost it.
See that line. Well I never should have crossed it.
Stop right there. Well I never should have said
That it's the very moment that
I wish that I could take back.

[Chorus]
I'm sorry for the person I became.
I'm sorry that it took so long for me to change.
I'm ready to be sure I never become that way again
'cause who I am hates who I've been.
Who I am hates who I've been.

I talk to absolutely no one.
Couldn't keep to myself enough.
And the things bottled inside have finally begun
To create so much pressure that I'll soon blow up.

I heard the reverberating footsteps
Synching up to the beating of my heart,
And I was positive that unless I got myself together,
I would watch me fall apart.

And I can't let that happen again
'cause then you'll see my heart
In the saddest state it's ever been.

This is no place to try and live my life.

[Pre-Chorus x2]
[Chorus]

Who I am hates who I've been
And who I am will take the second chance you gave me.
Who I am hates who I've been
'cause who I've been only ever made me...

So sorry for the person I became.
So sorry that it took so long for me to change.
I'm ready to be sure I never become that way again
'cause who I am hates who I've been.
Who I am hates who I've been.

Do you dream or do you sleep?


If you leave where will you go
Before the regret you hold in your heart will start to show...?
If you leave how will you know
If our ever after ever had a chance to grow?
Do you dream or do you sleep?
Do you pick and choose amongst the jewels for one to keep?
Do you will upon a star?
Or does everything just out of reach seem just too far away?
nothing seems to change
Let alone you won't forget my name
Just don't lose what you know
Just don't lose what you know
When you're so far away...
...so deep you say
and no matter where you go it all ends up the same...
Do you wish upon a star?
Or does everything just out of reach seem just too far away?
What you lose is what you know
Where you go is where you grow
How near we've come is yet to show
We've come so close yet so far away...
what did I do to you
so far away...what did I do to you?

Nine days-- So far away

Step 1: We need to talk


More than 9 months after the original post
The Fray - How to Save a Life--Revisted

The original post depicted someone sad wondering where she had gone wrong, this one on the contrary shows what I've imagined would've been previous to all that. Kind of like a prequel.
The moment before "the talk" of the song.

And why has it been revisited? well, Grey's Anatomy Soundtrack Volume 2 starts with this song, hehe, after listening to the whole thing for a couple of times, this came up to mind.

And just for the sake of understanding here are the song lyrics:

Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
And you begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

(how to save a life, The fray)

A long time ago, we used to be friends
But I haven't thought of you lately at all
If ever again, a greeting I send to you,
Short and sweet to the soul is all I intend.

A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh

Come on now, honey,
Bring it on, bring it on, yeah.
Just remember me when you're good to go
Come on now, sugar,
Bring it on, bring it on, yeah.
Just remember me when.

It's something I said, or someone I know.
Or you called me up, maybe I wasn't home.
Now everybody needs some time,
And everybody know
The rest of it's fine
And everybody knows that.

Come on now, sugar,
Bring it on, bring it on, yeah.
Just remember me when you're good to go
Come on now, honey,
Bring it on, bring it on, yeah.
Just remember me when.

waiting for the big fall
to take us all
quiet nights and desperate love
we need it all

spring came
rain fell
we ended up nowhere
then june came
sun shone
are we still nowhere?

someone come and take me away
no need to stay
when life itself is making you old
just take my soul

spring came
rain fell
we ended up nowhere
then june came
sun shone
are we still nowhere?

if you want me now
you don't have to try so hard
if you want me now
you don't have to try at all

spring came
rain fell
we ended up nowhere
then june came
sun shone
are we still nowhere?

Spring Came, Rain fell

Snow Patrol...WOW

El concierto, que cosa...valió la pena la espera...(Por si nos sabían...lo postpusieron desde el 14 de Marzo hasta hoy por cuestiones de logistica!!!)

No abrió ningun grupo (yey!) y el concierto comenzó pasadas las 9 de la noche...al principio no parecía que la gente se fuera a prender mucho, pero después de las primeras canciones esto agarró muy buen ritmo...

Entre los comentarios de Gary hacia el público fue que estaban sorprendidos de la respuesta, ya que siempre habían escuchado de que el publico mexicano tenía muy buen ambiente, y que pese a que se iban a ausentar un poco durante el tiempo en que graben el próximo disco, aseguraron que iban a regresar.

También comentó que se sentían un poco agobiados ya que nunca habían estado a esta altitud mas que en aviones. Y durante la canción de Hands Open en lugar de "Chicago bursts to life", le cambio por "Mexico city" lo cual obviamente generó grandes ovaciones.

Y por supuesto se disculpó por toda la espera (vaya que fue larga!!)

El set list fueron 18 canciónes...las que tienen "*" son las que abajo pueden ver el video =) (disculpen el pulso en algunas, pero digo habia que disfrutar el concierto!!!)

Hands Open
Chocolate*
Beginning to Get to Me*
Headlights
Signal Fire*
Grazed Knees*
How to be Dead*
Ways and Means*
Spitting Games
Make this go on Forever*
Chasing Cars*
Shut Your Eyes
Set The Fire*
Run*
Tiny Little Fractures

Finish Line*
Open Your Eyes
You're All I Have

Yo solo digo: Valió la pena la espera!!!!

Y como una imagen dice mas que las palabras como bien lo dice mi blog...aquí están los videos de la noche...
























No olviden visitar Jen's Design Corner...hay 2 diseños inspirados en las canciones de "Chasing Cars" y "Finish Line" Snow Patrol!!
