Jade-Don't Walk Away :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:











All this love, waiting just for you
I just gotta know that your love is true
Can't keep running boy in and out my life
Wanna be your girl, not 'cause the mood is right

If I let you come inside, tomorrow will you hide?
Will you be there for me, when I need someone to hold?
Baby, don't misunderstand, I do want for my man
I just need a little time, before I invest you my love

Don't walk away, boy (don't walk away)
My love won't hurt you (no, no)
Don't walk away boy
I'll be right there for you

You said all the things that I like to hear
You push all my buttons baby love to have close to me
Wanna feel your love, wanna be for sure
That it's me you need baby each and every night

If I let you come inside, tomorrow will you hide?
Will you be there for me, when I need someone to hold?
Baby, don't misunderstand, I do want you for my man
I just need a little time, before I invest my love

Don't walk away (don't walk away, boy)
My love won't hurt you (no)
Don't walk away, boy (don't walk away)
I'll be right there for you

Baby, don't misunderstand, I want you for my man
I need a little time before I give you my love

Don't walk away, boy (don't walk away)
I'll be right there for you

Don't walk away
This is what is sounds like when we make love
Don't walk away boy
Don't walk away, boy
I'll be right there for you

Pantera-Walk :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:










Can't you see I'm easily bothered by persistence
One step from lashing out at you
You want in to get under my skin
And call yourself a friend
I've got more friends like you
What do I do?

Is there no standard anymore?
What it takes, who I am, where I've been
Belong
You can't be something you're not
Be yourself, by yourself
Stay away from me
A lesson learned in life
Known from the dawn of time

Respect, walk

Run your mouth when I'm not around
It's easy to achieve
You cry to weak friends that sympathize

Can you hear the violins playing your song?
Those same friends tell me your every word

Is there no standard anymore?
What it takes, who I am, where I've been
Belong
You can't be something you're not
Be yourself, by yourself
Stay away from me
A lesson learned in life
Known from the dawn of time

Respect, walk

Are you talking to me?
No way punk
Walk on home boy

One of my favorite albums by my all time favorite band turns 18 years old today, so thought I'd share even though they're popular.

The song is "Get Busy Living or Get Busy Dying (Do Your Part to Save the Scene and Stop Going to Shows)" from Fall Out Boy's album From Under The Cork Tree.

The spoken word at the end still hits incredibly hard 18 years later:

"From day one, I talked about getting out
But not forgetting about how all my worst fears are letting out
He said, "Why put a new address
On the same old loneliness?"
When breathing just passes the time
Until we all just get old and die
Now talking's just a waste of breath
And living's just a waste of death
And why put a new address
On the same old loneliness?
And this is you and me, and me and you
Until we've got nothing left."

The Kills - Black Balloon


Elevator straight into my skull
The escalator rises as it falls
I swear our chant is crashing in my mind
You can hold on but I wouldn't waste your time

Farewell my black balloon
Farewell my black balloon

I've stood in a thousand street scenes
Just around the corner from you
On the edge of a dream that you have
Has anybody ever told you it's not coming, true?

Farewell my black balloon
Farewell my black balloon, the weather had it's way with you
Farewell my black balloon, the weather had it's way with you
Farewell my black balloon

Da, da, da, da...
Ah, ah, ah, ah...

Farewell my black balloon
Farewell my black balloon, the weather had it's way with you
Farewell my black balloon, the weather had it's way with you
Farewell my black balloon

Kane Brown-One Mississippi :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:










You and I had this off and on so long
You've been here, then you've been gone
So many times

And every night
I'm always bumping into you
We do the same things we used to
It's your place or it's mine, so

Ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh
We'll lie and swear we're through
With the lonely drunk and déjà vu
Ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh
Five minutes out of downtown
Ain't nothin' but a countdown

One Mississippi, two Mississippi, three shots of whiskey
Are you on your way
We're tipsy, baby, come kiss me, I can't wait, I can't wait
One Mississippi, two Mississippi, three in the mornin'
We'll be on our way
So tipsy, can't stop kissin', I can't wait, I can't wait forever

Every time I'm at this bar, tap on the shoulder, turn around
And baby, there you are
And it's fire, you're like this Bourbon, hundred proof
Yeah, they don't burn the way you do
Yeah, we're better in the dark, so

Ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh
We'll lie and swear we're through
With the lonely drunk and déjà vu
Ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh
Five minutes out of downtown
Ain't nothing but a countdown

One Mississippi, two Mississippi, three shots of whiskey
Are you on your way
We're tipsy, baby, come kiss me, I can't wait, I can't wait
One Mississippi, two Mississippi, three in the mornin'
We'll be on our way
So tipsy, can't stop kissin', I can't wait, I can't wait forever

Kinda like that Georgia wind
We'll be gone and back again
But always wind up right back where we are
Playing roulette with our hearts
And blowing smoke rings in the dark

Yeah, Ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh
We'll lie and swear we're through
With the lonely drunk and déjà vu
Ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh
Five minutes out of downtown
Ain't nothin' but a countdown

One Mississippi, two Mississippi, three shots of whiskey
Are you on your way
We're tipsy, baby, come kiss me, I can't wait, I can't wait
One Mississippi, two Mississippi, three in the mornin'
We'll be on our way
So tipsy, can't stop kissin', I can't wait, I can't wait forever

Every time I'm at this bar, tap on the shoulder, turn around
And baby, there you are

Banarama-Love Truth & Honesty :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:










Never trust your own emotions
They'll always let you down
And the one that's closest to you
May not always be around

I never questioned
The promises you made
Every time I gave my heart
I was betrayed

What a fool
That I should ever believe
In love, truth and honesty
All the time
You just keep on hurting me

Maybe everyone's a stranger
I watch them come and go
But I think everyone's in danger
If they let their feelings show

There's a lesson
And a price you have to pay
If you give your heart
Don't let it be betrayed

What a fool
That I should ever believe
In love, truth and honesty
All the time
You just keep on hurting me

What a fool
Every time I find I'm deceived
Where is the love, truth and honesty
If you see it
Won't you bring it on home to me

There's a lesson
And a price you have to pay
If you give your heart
Don't let it be betrayed

What a fool
That I should ever believe
In love, truth and honesty
All the time
You just keep on hurting me

What a fool
Every time I find I'm deceived
Where is the love, truth and honesty
If you see it
Won't you bring it on home to me

What a fool
That I should ever believe
In love, truth and honesty
All the time

Any Given Sin-Calm Before The Storm :heart:







I don't give up
I don't wave white flags
Never surrender
No quarter to be had
If I said it
That I meant it
You better believe
I'm making no apologies

I am the fire
Relentless undying survivor
I am the fire
Ready or not, seek shelter in the calm before the storm
The calm before the storm

Blowing it up
'Cause I can't hold back
Never enough
Till there's nothing left to have
Pushing the limit
Coming relentless
You better believe
I'm making no apologies

I am the fire
Relentless undying survivor
I am the fire
Ready or not, seek shelter in the calm before the storm

(All my life)
The calm before the storm
(All my life)
(All my life)

Wake me up when I'm done yeah
If it's not impossible yeah
Wake me up when I'm done yeah
If it's not impossible
I must be unstoppable

Judge me by the enemies I've made
Trust me, some days gonna come someday
No regrets 'cause I don't hesitate
Nothing to lose, nothing to gain
But we gotta play, gotta play the game

(We gotta play, we gotta play, we gotta play, we gotta play)

I am the fire
Relentless undying survivor
I am the fire
Ready or not, seek shelter in the calm before the storm
The calm before the storm
Seek shelter in the calm before the storm​

When I get you all alone
I'm gonna take off all your clothes
Ain't nobody gonna interrupt my game, oh no
Ever since you've been hangin' around
I've been trying to figure out
What I'm gonna say to you to get something, yeah

Couldn't we do what we did last night again
Baby you and I could be better friends
Don't you think it's time we went a bit further, oh yeah
Every night when we say goodbye
how can I help looking in your eyes
Wondering why you and I haven't hit it
Can we get it on

[Chorus:]
Kind of faded, but I feel alright
Thinkin' about making my move tonight
I can't pretend that you're only my friend when you're holdin' my body tight
'Cause I like the way you're making your move
I like the way you're making me wait
At the end of the night, when i make up your mind
You'll be coming on home with me, yeah, yeah, yeah

Don't you know you've got it?
And you know I want it
I can't wait to take you home (you know you've got it tonight)
I don't want to be rude at all
I just want to be where you go
Think what we could do alone? (yeah)

Couldn't we do what we did last night again
Baby you and I could be better friends
Don't you think it's time we went a bit further, oh yeah
Every night when we say goodbye
How can I help lookin' in your eyes
Wondering why you and I haven't hit it
Can we get it on

[Rap:]
When we first met yo that deal was stated,
You spent like my D's the way we compensated;
Just another day around the way
With me up close so every thing OK.
'cause I'm not like the rest
Indecision with the best
Plus for my full court press
Because they hated-
How's it go?
Hah-
Yo, faded.

[Chorus x5]

Come on!

Get into the groove
Boy, you've got to prove your love to me, yeah
Get up on your feet, yeah, step to the beat

Music can be such a revelation
Dancing around, you feel the sweet sensation
We might be lovers if the rhythm's right
I hope this feeling never ends tonight

Only when I'm dancing can I feel this free

I'm tired of dancing here all by myself
Tonight I want to dance with someone else

Boy, you've got to prove your love to me, yeah
Get up on your feet, yeah, step to the beat
Boy, what will it be?

Don't try to hide it, love wears no disguise
I see the fire burning in your eyes

Only when I'm dancing can I feel this free
At night I lock the doors, where no one else can see
I'm tired of dancing here all by myself
Tonight I want to dance with someone else

Hush now, don't you cry
Wipe away the teardrop from your eye
You're lying safe in bed
It was all a bad dream spinning in your head
Your mind tricked you to feel the pain
Of someone close to you leaving the game of life
So here it is, another chance
Wide awake you face the day, your dream is over
Or has it just begun?
There's a place I like to hide
A doorway that I run through in the night
Relax child, you were there
But only didn't realize and you were scared
It's a place where you will learn
To face your fears, retrace the years
And ride the whims of your mind
Commanding in another world
Suddenly you hear and see this magic new dimension
will be watching over you
(I) am gonna help you see it through
(I) will protect you in the night
(I) am smiling next to you, in silent lucidity
I can't do this
Visualize your dream, record it in the present tense
Put it into a permanent form
If you persist in your efforts, you can achieve dream control
How's that then, better?
Dream control, dream control
Help me
If you open your mind for me
You won't rely on open eyes to see
The walls you built within
Come tumbling down, and a new world will begin
Living twice at once, you learn
You're safe from the pain in the dream domain
A soul set free to fly
A round trip journey in your head
Master of illusion, can you realize
Your dream's alive, you can be the guide but
will be watching over you
(I) am gonna help you see it through
(I) will protect you in the night
(I) I'm smiling next to you

I love this part of this song:

Hey
I know I shouldn't say it
But
There could be someone else that doesn't look away when I
Tear my heart out of my chest


I believe there's something very special about you exposing your heart completely to someone, in the rawest, dirtiest, most unfiltered way, and them being able to not look away. Of accepting, understanding, and appreciating the sincerity of the moment, simply staying there, without looking away.
