*heart* Reik *heart*

Me duele amarte 
Los sueños que eran para ti  
Se pierden con cada palabra  
Con cada momento que espere vivir 

Me duele mas imaginar 
Que tu te vas y dejaras  
Detras de ti
Tu ausencia en mis brazos  


Me duele tanto sospechar  
Que ni tu sombra volvera  
Para abrigar 
Mi alma en pedazos
 
[...]

Me duele aquel Abril  
Cuando te vi
Por vez primera y dije que eras para mi 

Me duele amarte tanto

What about...me?

What about everything?
What about aeroplanes? 
And what about ships that drank the sea?
What about...
What about the moon and stars? 
What about soldier battle scars?
And all the anger that they eat
What about...
What about aliens? 
What about you and me? 
And what about gold beneath the sea?
What about....
What about when buildings fall? 
What about that midnight phone call?
The one that wakes you from your peace
Well I am not, I am not, I am not in need

...

I wanna sing a song, that’d be just ours
But I sang them all to another heart
And I wanna cry, I wanna fall in love
But all my tears have been used up

On another love, another love
All my tears have been used up
On another love, another love
All my tears have been used up
On another love, another love
All my tears have been used up

And don't ever stop

Live high
Live mighty
Live righteously
Taking it easy
Live high, live mighty
Live righteously

Decisions decisions

Propped up by lies with promises 
Saving my place as life forgets 
Maybe it's time I saw the world 
I'm only here for a while 
But patience is not my style 
And I'm so tired that I gotta go
 ... 
I'm over existing in limbo  
I'm over the myths and placebos  
I don't really mind if I just fade away*

Late


I never should'a let her go
So many things I should'a let her know
Should'a held her in my arms said baby no, please wait
I woke up to find, she had changed her mind
I'd run out of time, 'bout a million kisses too late.

I let her walk away, I lost it all that day
Don't make the same mistake

Not a mistake

Los errores no se eligen
para bien o para mal
no fallé cuando viniste... y tu, y tu
no quisiste fallar
...
Tengo una mala noticia
no fue de casualidad
yo quería que nos pasara... y tu, y tu
lo dejaste pasar
...
Y nada nada de esto
nada de esto fue un error (nada) oh oh
nada fue un error
nada de esto fue un error oh oh
nada fue un error (y nada)*

Until...

This is how it works
You're young until you're not
You love until you don't
You try until you can't
You laugh until you cry
You cry until you laugh
And everyone must breathe
Until their dying breath*

Run away! Run away!!!

And maybe I'll find out
A way to make it back someday
To watch you, to guide you
Through the darkest of your days.

If a great wave shall fall
And fall upon us all
Well, then I hope there's someone out there
Who can bring me back to you.

If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low
I'll go wherever you will go

Run away with my heart
Run away with my hope
Run away with my love

I know now, just quite how
My life and love might still go on
In your heart, in your mind
I'll stay with you for all of time.*

Learning...the hard way

Head under water
And they tell me to breathe easy for a while
The breathing gets harder, even I know that
Made room for me but it's too soon to see
If I'm happy in your hands

A singular fear *tears*

Settle down, it'll all be clear
Don't pay no mind to the demons
They fill you with fear
The trouble it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found

Just know you’re not alone

Cause I’m going to make this place your home*

I surely hope so

When you find it in your heart
Look this way and I'll never stop
When you can't find what words to say
I'll know what you mean anyways
...
I tell you somebody knows what you're talking about
I tell you somebody knows

I tell you somebody knows what you're talking about

I tell you somebody knows

And I'll do it again, oh, I would gladly do it
Oh, I'll do it again, oh, again now, oh, I would gladly do it

Oh, I'll do it again, oh, I would gladly do it
Oh, I'll do it again, ooh, I would gladly, gladly do it

Love is the answer

A poco no está duro pa' ti
Pa' que sigues así
Sí aquí estoy yo

Nunca te haz sentido que ya

parece el final
Pues fijate en mí
Tú encontrarás contestación

Fijate en ti

Muy dentro de ti
Tú vas a encontrarme a mi
Para darte amor*

Have you FELT music on your skin?! I did! Tonight!


Save me from this prison
Lord help me get away
Cause only you can save me now
From this misery
Cause I've been lost in my own place
And I'm getting' weary
How far is heaven
And I know I need to change
My ways of livin'
How far is heaven, Lord can you tell me*

I wanna go!

I wanna go to Marz
Where green rivers flow
And your sweet sixteen is waiting for you after the show
I wanna go to Marz
We'll meet the gold dust twins tonight
You'll get your heart's desire, I will meet you under the lights*

Honored

And all I can say
Is you blow me away

Like an apple on a tree
Hiding out behind the leaves
I was difficult to reach
But you picked me
Like a shell upon a beach
Just another pretty piece
I was difficult to see
But you picked me
Yeah you picked me*

Chills & Tears


* "If I Be Wrong" by Wolf Larsen

Saturday, September 15, 2012

Ugh! Didn't need to hear this one today

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me*

Mary's shame...and redemption

The room grew still
As she made her way to Jesus
She stumbles through the tears that made her blind
She felt such pain

Some spoke in anger
Heard folks whisper
There's no place here for her kind
Still on she came
Through the shame that flushed her face
Until at last, she knelt before his feet
And though she spoke no words
Everything she said was heard
As she poured her love for the Master
From her box of alabaster

And I've come to pour

My praise on Him
Like oil from Mary's alabaster box
Don't be angry if I wash his feet with my tears
And I dry them with my hair
You weren't there the night He found me
You did not feel what I felt
When he wrapped his love all around me
and
You don't know the cost of the oil
In my alabaster box*

**  This song has been cathartic for me for a few years now.  I heard it yesterday and thought about posting it but decided against it.  It was serendipity...as I was going to be needing it tonight after receiving an email that tore my heart up yet again.  I need love wrapped around me. Seriously! Something's gotta give.
