The Real Me by Natalie Grant

10 01 2009

Foolish heart looks like we’re here again
Same old game of plastic smile
Don’t let anybody in
Hiding my heartache, will this glass house break
How much will they take before I’m empty
Do I let it show, does anybody know?

But you see the real me
Hiding in my skin, broken from within
Unveil me completely
I’m loosening my grasp
There’s no need to mask my frailty
Cause you see the real me

Painted on, life is behind a mask
Self-inflicted circus clown
I’m tired of the song and dance
Living a Charade, always on parade
What a mess I’ve made of my existence
But you love me even now
And still I see somehow

But you see the real me
Hiding in my skin, broken from within
Unveil me completely
I’m loosening my grasp
There’s no need to mask my frailty
Cause you see the real me

Wonderful, beautiful is what you see
When you look at me
You’re turning the tattered fabric of my life into
A perfect tapestry
I just wanna be me

But you see the real me
Hiding in my skin, broken from within
Unveil me completely
I’m loosening my grasp
There’s no need to mask my frailty
Cause you see the real me

And you love me just as I am

Wonderful, Beautiful is what you see
When you look at me






At 15 you feel like there is nothing to figure out…

30 12 2008

I posted the song and lyrics to Taylor Swift’s song Fifteen. I like it not only because it was done by an inspirational artist but also of the lyrics. I am 15 and I guess that is another reason why I like it. It is being directed to me. It was made for girls of the age of 15.

I can tell you from experience, being 15 is… I don’t know how to explain it. You’ve been through it ( if you haven’t you definately will).

Her song is truth. It is complete truth. I don’t mind going through it, telling you all my favorite lines and lines that are very meaningful.

And when your 15, feeling like there’s nothing to figure out. Count to ten take it in this is life be for you know who your gonna be. That is an amazing and true line. There is nothing to figure out. That’s life. You have no idea who you are going to be in the future at 15. Who am I gonna be? I don’t know. I don’t even know how my life will change after 15.

cause when your 15 and someone tells you the love you you’re gonna believe them. when all you wanted was to be wanted wish you could go back and tell yourself what you know now. At 15, I’m stupid. the moment you feel wanted you turn into the stupidest person. I hate getting to emotionally attached because the moment I get comfortable, I get hurt. But time can heal most anything.so i’ll let time come.

I love the last line of the last chorus. I didn’t know who I was suppose to be at 15. Being 15, it’s like…that’s it you know. There is nothing else to life for you but dating and getting good grades, making friends, losing friends, making enemies. The biggest thing about being a 15 year old young lady is the boy friend part and everyone is like “Oh we must have a boy friend”. Trust me I feel that way sometimes but Ms Swift put it very clearly. We don’t know who we will be. We don’t know who we are suppose to be at 15.

Yeah 15….Someone please give all the 15 year olds you know a wake up call.





Average girl by barlow girl

3 11 2008

“Average Girl”

So what I’m not your average girl
I don’t meet the standards of this world
Chasing after boys is not my thing
See I’m waiting for a wedding ring

No more dating
I’m just waiting
Like sleeping beauty
My prince will come for me
No more dating I’m just waiting
‘Cause God is writing my love story

Boys are bad that’s certainly not true
‘Cause God’s preparing one for you
If you get tired waiting till he comes
Gods arms are the perfect place to run

Sleep that’s the only thing
For me ’cause when I sleep Gods
Preparing one for me





EVERY GOD DAMNED THING I AM NOT

11 10 2008

If you listen to this, you might think it is a love song and that I am going to rant about some guy but I am not. The ,yrics to me are very meaning-ful. If I would have to dedicate it, I would dedicate it to my friends and not a guy.

Angels, specifically Emo and Serenity, I can’t be someone I am not and you keep hitting me when I try to be who I am. What kind of friend does that? Don’t call me childish. Don’t call me insensitive. I hate negative and I block all of it out. I hate it when you’re so negative in the morning, Emo. You might have had a bad day yesterday and may be I did too, but I don’t bring my attitude to school the first thing in the morning. Serenity, stop siding with her. She is over powering both of us and I don’t even know if you notice. I am not going to let any of you over power me or tell me what to do. If you don’t like it, we seriously can;t be friends anymore.

The Veronicas
Everything I’m Not lyrics

Oh no
Don’t go changin’
That’s what you told me from the start
Thought you were somethin’ different
That’s when it all just fell apart
Like your so perfect
And i can’t measure up
Well i’m not perfect
Just all messed up

I was losing myself to somebody else
But now i see
And i don’t wanna pretend
So this is the end of you and me
’cause the girl that you want
She was tearin’ us apart
’cause she’s everything
Everything i’m not

It’s not like i need somebody
Telling me where i should go at night
Don’t worry you’ll find somebody
Someone to tell how to live their life
’cause your so perfect
And no one measures up
Yeah all by yourself
Your all messed up

I was losing myself to somebody else
But now i see
I don’t wanna pretend
So this is the end of you and me
’cause the girl that u want
She was tearin’ us apart
’cause she’s everything
Everything i’m not

Now wait a minute
Because of you
I never knew all of the things that i had
Hey don’t you get it
I’m not going anywhere with you tonight
’cause this is my life

I was losing myself to somebody else
But now i see
(now i see yeah)
I don’t wanna pretend
So this is the end of you and me
(end of you and me)
Cause the girl that you want
(that you want)
She was tearing us apart
Cause she’s everything
Everything i’m not

But now i see
(i don’t wanna)
I don’t wanna pretend
So this is the end of you and me
Cause the girl that you want
She was tearing us apart
Cause she’s everything
Everything i’m not





Yes We Can video-Obama and Will I Am

20 09 2008

This was really great. Very creative and original. Also, this will get Obama’s message across. It was his speech and putting it in a song was really creative.

Here is also another website that you might wanna check out.

Fall for you by Secondhand Serenade

10 08 2008

Why on earth did I get hooked on this song? Its so sad and brings back sad memories; memories that I never wanted to remember. I’ll share it anyway.

Fall For You lyrics

The best thing about tonight’s that we’re not fighting
Could it be that we have been this way before
I know you don’t think that I am trying
I know you’re wearing thin down to the core

But hold your breath
Because tonight will be the night
That I will fall for you
Over again
Don’t make me change my mind
Or I won’t live to see another day
I swear it’s true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
You’re impossible to find

This is not what I intended
I always swore to you I’d never fall apart
You always thought that I was stronger
I may have failed but I have loved you from the start

Oh, But hold your breath
Because tonight will be the night
That I will fall for you
Over again
Don’t make me change my mind
Or I won’t live to see another day
I swear it’s true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
It’s impossible
So breathe in so deep
Breathe me in
I’m yours to keep
And hold on to your words
Cause talk is cheap
And remember me tonight
When you’re asleep

Because tonight will be the night
That I will fall for you
Over again
Don’t make me change my mind
Or I won’t live to see another day
I swear it’s true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find

Tonight will be the night
That I will fall for you
Over again
Don’t make me change my mind
Or I won’t live to see another day
I swear it’s true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
You’re impossible to find





One step at a time

26 06 2008

“One Step At A Time”Hurry up and wait
So close, but so far away
Everything that you’ve always dreamed of
Close enough for you to taste
But you just can’t touchYou wanna show the world, but no one knows your name yet
Wonder when and where and how you’re gonna make it
You know you can if you get the chance
In your face as the door keeps slamming
Now you’re feeling more and more frustrated
And you’re getting all kind of impatient waiting

[Chorus:]
We live and we learn to take
One step at a time
There’s no need to rush
It’s like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It’s gonna happen and it’s
Supposed to happen that we
Find the reasons why
One step at a time

You believe and you doubt
You’re confused, you got it all figured out
Everything that you always wished for
Could be yours, should be yours, would be yours
If they only knew

You wanna show the world, but no one knows your name yet
Wonder when and where and how you’re gonna make it
You know you can if you get the chance
In your face as the door keeps slamming
Now you’re feeling more and more frustrated
And you’re getting all kind of impatient waiting

[Chorus]

When you can’t wait any longer
But there’s no end in sight
when you need to find the strength
It’s the faith that makes you stronger
The only way you get there
Is one step at a time

[Chorus x2]

 

 

 

 





Finally!

9 06 2008

Fergie is an inspirational artist. She started out being the only female in the band The Black Eye Peas. In 2006, she released her first solo album entitled the Dutchess. Fergie’s music ranges from the craziest of beat ( example clumsy) to the most sentimental of songs ( example: finally, big girls don’t cry). Fergie is a great female artist. This is the lyrics to her song finally.

Finally lyrics

MMMMMMMMMM

Ever since I was a baby girl I had a dream
Cinderella theme
Crazy as it seems
Always knew that deep inside that there would come a day
When I would have to way
Make so many mistakes
I could’nt comprehend
As I watched it unfold
This classic story told I left it in the cold
Walking through an open door that led me back to you
Each one unlocking more of the truth

I finally stopped tripping on my youth
I finally got lost inside of you
I finally know that I needed to grow
And finally my maze has been solved

[chorus]
Finally
Now my destiny can begin
Though it will have a different set
Something strange and new is happening
Finally
Now my life doesn’t seem so bad
Its the best that I’ve ever had
Give my love to him finally

MMMMMMMM

I remember the beggining you already knew
I acted like a fool
Just trying to be cool
Fronting like it didn’t matter
I just ran away
On another face
Was lost in my own space
Found what its like to hurt selfishly
Scared to give of me
Afraid to just believe
I was in a jealous, insecure, pathetic place
Stumbled through the nets that I have made

Finally got out of my own way
I’ve Finally started living for today
I finally know that I needed to grow
And finally know that

[chorus]
Finally
Now my destiny can begin
Though we will have a different set
Something strange and new is happening
Finally
Now my life doesn’t seem so bad
Its the best that I’ve ever had
Gave my love to him Finally

MMMMMMMM

Finally, Finally

Finally
Now my destiny can begin
Though it will have a different set
Something beautiful is happening, happening
Finally
Now my life doesn’t seem so bad
Give my love to him finally

Ohhhhhhh, Finally, Finally, finally





Be the bestfriend you fall in love with in the end

1 06 2008

Girls, have you ever had a point in your life when you are friends with the guy of your dreams and he’s your bestfriend and one day he tells you about this girl he kissed. You feel like all your hopes and dreams have just been flushed down the drain. I had that feeling today… I tried to flirt then he told me about her and I just pretended I was happy and fine. Ha! I’m such a bad liar. Anyways here is a song you all might relate to.

If We Were A Movie lyricsUh Oh!

 

There you go again talking cinematic

Yeah you!

Your charming…
Got everybody star struck
I know how you always seem to go
For the obvious
instead of me
But get a ticket and you’ll see

if we were a movie
You’d be the right guy
And I’d be the best friend
That you’d fall in love with,
In the end we’d be laughing
Watching the sunset
Fade to black,
Show the names,
Play the happy song

Yeah,yeah
When you call me
I can hear it in your voice
Oh sure!
Wanna see me and tell me all about her
La la!
I’ll be acting through my tears
Guess you’ll never know
That I should win
an oscar for this scene I’m in

If we were a movie
You’d be the right guy
And I’d be the best friend
That you’d fall in love with,
In the end we’d be laughing
Watching the sunset
Fade to black,
Show the names,
Play the happy song,

Wish I could tell you there’s a twist
Some kind of hero in disguise
And we’re together,it’s for real
Now playin’
Wish I could tell you there’s a kiss
Like something more than in my mind
I see it could be amazing

If we were a movie
You’d be the right guy
And I’d be the best friend
That you’d fall in love with,
In the end we’d be laughing
Watching the sunset
Fade to black,
Show the names,
Play the happy song

If we were a movie
You’d be the right guy
And I’d be the best friend
That you’d fall in love with
In the end we’d be laughing
Watching the sunset
Fade to black,
Show the names,
Play the happy song

If we were a movie
You’d be the right guy
And I’d be the best friend
That you’d fall in love with,
In the end we’d be laughing
Watching the sunset
Fade to black,
Show the names,
Play the happy song
