Whats in my head.....

Ok.
I seriously would marry this song and make babies with it if I could. 
I LOVE IT!!!
Here are the lyrics and it is the first one on my playlist.

Give it a listen. If you love me, you will. (I am aware of manipulation tactics)

There are actually 2 different songs on the one track, but just listen to first one.
Well, you can listen to both. 
But I am not in love with the second one like I am with this one. 
THIS is why I love Brandi Carlile

Again Today-

Broken sticks and broken stones
Will turn to dust just like our bones
It's words that hurt the most now isn't it
Are you sad inside, are you home alone
If I could just pick up the phone
Maybe you could see a better day
And you won't waste away
under my watchful eye
Because I'm your hero and you're my weakness

Who's gonna break my fall
When the spinning starts
The colors bleed together and fade
Was it ever there at all
Or have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again today


-----I LOVE THIS PART-----
****I'm broken down, not good enough
The broken promises add up
To twice their weight in tears which I have caused****


I'm afraid to sink, I'm afraid to swim
I'm sad to say I miss my friends
I know that I'm supposed to step away
But they need me to stay and keep a watchful eye
On all my heroes and all their demons

But who's gonna break my fall
When the spinning starts
The colors bleed together and fade
Was it ever there at all
Or have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again
Not today
Not today

Was it ever there at all
And have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again today

Broken sticks and broken stones
Will turn to dust just like our bones again today
I'm broken down
Not good enough
The broken promises add up again today

Was it ever there at all
And have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again today
Again today 



ISNT THAT FREAKING AWESOME????


K, this next song (and the second one on my playlist as well) is the reason why I ever fell in love with Brandi. I have history with this song and represents someone very particular. 


Long is the day, take it away
Hold it up and you don't let it fall
Cause devils play, was yesterday
And I don't care about that at all

I just smile, once in a while
Because I don't want the lines on my face
I sit right here, holding the years
And I count all the stars in space

You fall apart again and you can find a friend
Don't turn to someone else because they won't understand...

Self respect, goes unexpressed
I don't dream because I cannot sleep
And I think the world of myself
But the world doesn't think much of me
***FAVORITE PART IN THE SONG***
As long as the day is full of time, there will always be room
for your hand in mine


You fall apart again and you can't find a friend
Don't turn to someone else because they won't understand
I don't want to hear
You say that you miss yesterday
If you don't like what you see
That means nothing to me

****Kick ass Guitar time******

No one's home I'm alone with my music and my tv
And I still say that yesterday is best when left to sleep

You fall apart again and you can't find a friend
Don't turn to someone else because they won't understand
I don't want to hear
You say that you miss yesterday
If you don't like what you see
That means nothing to me 




OH MAN!!! I just LOVE Brandi! Listen to her other stuff on here. She is AMAZING!!!!


Whew!

  1. alisa, i think you are hilarious. your interactions with your daughter could be it's very own tv show. thanks for giving me endless entertainment for when i'm slow at work!

    seriously though, what happened to your brother in law is completely horrifying and i'm so sorry for you and your family. jake and i were shocked to read about it, you all seem to be dealing with it wonderfully. i would have much hatred towards the police department if i were you. i hope that cop got fired. (he would have here)
