One for Steve

Steve recently told me that my music lyrics (as read on my blogs) are kinda depressing!
I think that if folks would listen to the songs (words and music), the true meaning would come through, actually a positive experience!
(Reminds me of Ozzy Osbornes' song, "Suicide solution", where some misguided soul interpreted the song as a "solution" to his problems was suicide, when actually Ozzy meant that the "suicide solution" was really the solution of alcohol, where constant imbibing would eventually end in death!
Anyhow, heres' a more hopeful song that I dearly love...

Paramore "Hallelujah"
Somehow everything's gonna fall right into place
If we only had a way to make it all
Fall faster everyday
If only time flew like a dove
We gotta make it fly faster than I'm falling in love

This time we're not giving up
Let's make it last forever
Screaming "hallelujah"
We'll make it last forever

Holding onto patience, wearing thin
I can't force these eyes to see the end
If only time flew like a dove
We could watch it fly and just keep looking on

This time we're not giving up
Let's make it last forever
Screaming "hallelujah"
We'll make it last forever

And we've got time on our hands
And we've got, got nothing but time on our hands
Got nothing but, got nothing but
Got nothing but time on our hands

This time we're not giving up
Oh, let's make it last forever
Screaming "hallelujah"
"Hallelujah"
"Hallelujah"

More Sum 41

Send "Thanks For Nothing" Ringtone to your Cell
I'll never take part in the growing population
Or waste my time with further education
Forget what we know
It's just a big show
What they want to control

So jaded, frustrated
Its all so complicated
Fashion, no passion surrounds me

All I know is
I've heard this all before
Reality's a bore
You ask me to believe in something fake
Well I can't bring myself to
Do what you want me to
This is who we are and
Nothing's gonna change
Nothing's gonna change

I can't take part in the businessman illusion
I'll take my chance in the real world confusion
Don't blame us
Who do we trust
When they're so dishonest?
No patience, this nation's obsessed with exploitation
Lying, denying surrounds me

All I know is
I've heard this all before
Reality's a bore
You ask me to believe in something fake
Well I can't bring myself to
Do what you want me to
This is who we are and
Nothing's gonna change

Don't think you can ignore us
Don't tell me that we're to blame
Don't pick our future for us
Or act like we're the same

All I know is
I've heard this all before
Reality's a bore
You ask me to believe in something fake
Well I can't bring myself to
Do what you want me to
This is who we are and
Nothing's gonna change

(Thanks for nothing)
I've heard this all before
(Thanks for nothing)
Reality's a bore
(Thanks for nothing)
It'll never be the same
(Thanks for nothing)
And nothings gonna change...
