venetian snares - my crutch

this is me, it describes my mind and my headspace so perfectly...

what is yours?

(it could be anything, the lyrics could describe you or your beliefs or raison d'etre or the music could...)

Yesterdays by Guns N' Roses.

Yesterday, there was so many things
I was never told
Now that I'm startin' to learn
I feel I'm growing old

'Cause yesterday's got nothin' for me
Old pictures that I'll always see
Time just fades the pages
In my book of memories
Prayers in my pocket
And no hand in destiny
I'll keep on movin' along
With no time to plant my feet

'Cause yesterday's got nothin' for me
Old pictures that I'll always see
Some things could be better
If we'd all just let them be

Yesterday's got nothin' for me
Yesterday's got nothin' for me
Got nothin' for me

Yesterday, There was so many things
I was never shown
Suddenly this time I found
I'm on the streets and I'm all alone

Yesterday's got nothin' for me
Old pictures that I'll always see
I ain't got time to reminisce old novelties

Marina & The Diamonds - Are You Satisfied?

Are you satisfied with an average life?
Do I need to lie to make my way in life?

Are you satisfied with an easy ride
Once you cross the line
Will you be satisfied?

Stay Awake (Dreams Only Last For A Night) - All Time Low

Caught in a cold sweat
Stuck splitting hairs
And drinking too much
I'm on my way to striking out

Go to sleep with the pressure of everyone
Watching and waiting
They're yours for the taking
But I still have my doubts
(I still have my doubts)

Before you ask which way to go
Remember where you've been


Stay awake
Get a grip and get out
You're safe
From the weight of the world
Just take
A second to set things straight
I'll be fine
Even though I'm not always right
I can count on the sun to shine
Dedication takes a lifetime
But dreams only last for a night

Figure it out
Boy, you're tripping
So pull yourself together
Or you'll wash up like the rest

This ship is sinking
I'm thinking I'm done for
I'll watch as the sails
Disappear underwater
'Cause I'm no captain yet

Believe you me
I'll give them everything
I'd tell them anything
To show them everything

'Cause you ain't the only ones
Who wanna live it up
You ain't the only ones
You ain't the only ones
Who wanna live it up
You ain't the only ones
You ain't the only ones
Who wanna live it up
You ain't the only ones
You ain't the only ones
Who wanna live it up
You ain't the only ones


Especially the bit in bold.

And 7 Minutes In Heaven - Fall Out Boy
Scary how much that song is me.

These songs also sum me up word for word:
This River Is Wild - The Killers
Fingerprints - Katy Perry
Half the World Away - Oasis
New Perspective - Panic! At The Disco (apart from the "go down on me" line, that's tacky. Only included cos the song was for a Megan Fox film, Brendon said)
Weightless - All Time Low

That Lady by The Isley Brothers

Who's that lady? (Who's that lady?)
Beautiful lady. (Who's that lady?)
Lovely lady. (Who's that lady?)
Real fine lady. (Who's that lady?)

Hear me calling out to you,
Cause that's all that I can do.
Your eyes tell me to pursue.
But you say, "Look, yeah, but don't touch."

Who's that lady? (Who's that lady?)
Sexy lady. (Who's that lady?)
Beautiful lady. (Who's that lady?)
Real fine lady. (Who's that lady?)

I would dance upon a string.
Any gift she'd want, I'd bring.
I would give her anything,
If she would just do what I say.

Who's that lady? (Who's that lady?)
Beautiful lady. (Who's that lady?)
Lovely lady. (Who's that lady?)
Real real fine lady. (Who's that lady?)

I would love to take her home,
But her heart is made of stone.
Gotta keep on keeping on.
If I don't, she'll do me wrong.

Brand New's Deja Entendu album is an album that defines me perfectly.

But some songs I can think of:

For sure one song would be
The Prayer - Bloc Party
Lord give me grace and dancing feet
And the power to impress
Lord give me grace and dancing feet
Let me outshine the moon

Is it so wrong to crave recognition?
Second best, runner-up
Is it so wrong to want rewarding?
To want more than is given to you?
Than is given to you

Tonight make me unstoppable
And I will charm, I will slice
I will dazzle them with my wit
Tonight make me unstoppable
And I will charm, I will slice
I will dazzle, I will outshine them all


This line always has me
The Archers Bows Have Broken - Brand New
Who do you carry that torch for, my young man?
Do you believe in anything,
or do you carry it around just to burn things to the ground?

Oh No! - Marina and the Diamonds
In fact several songs on Marina's album seem to define me. It's weird

Misunderstood - Robbie Williams

And btw you are misunderstood if you think this is in any way self-indulgent.

I remember when I was a teenager, it was always The Jesus and Mary Chain - Never Understand.

Not sure I could think of a single track these days though!

You have a shyness that is criminally vulgar? You are the son and heir of nothing in particular? You go to a club and you stand on your own, and you leave on your own, and you go home and you cry and you want to die?

Cheer up love.

Quite corny, but..

Ace of Base - The Sign.

Not just love, but in a wider perspective. I swear my life goes in 6 month cycles, so many times and so many people I've looked back on in hindsight and thought "how could I". Always moving on but never getting anywhere.

Oh dear, I think the winter blues are setting in.
