Oh,oh,oh
Ice cold milk and an Oreo cookie.
They forever go together what a
classic combination.
When a dark delicious cookie
meets an icy cold sensation
Like the one and only creamy,
crunchy, choc-o-late

This from my favorite song. It’s Way Over Yonder by Carole King
Way over yonder is a place that I know
Where I can find shelter from hunger and cold
And the sweet tasting good life is easily found
Way over yonder – that’s where I’m bound
I know when I get there, the first thing I’ll see
Is the sun shining golden – shining right down on me
Then trouble’s gonna lose me – worry leave me behind
And I’ll stand up proudly in true peace of mind
Way over yonder is a place I have seen
In a garden of wisdom from some long ago dream
May be tomorrow I’ll find my way
To the land where the honey runs in rivers each day
And the sweet tasting good life is so easily found
Way over yonder – that’s where I’m bound
I smell sex and candy. – Marcy Playground
I like the lyrics in this Hot Chip song:
I’m looking for a face to attack
it could be that im kissing your kneck
you will not know because im laid back
so watch yourself i’ll come with a smack
I’ve hit you hard it’s time for some bounce
i’ve left a scar there’s blood in our dance
i rock the club straphobia stance
now fix yourself your heart’s in my lungs
Sip on something sleepy why not get a little overdose
Sip on something sleepy why not get a little overdose
Sip on something sleepy why not get a little overdose
Sip on something sleepy why not get a little overdose
What can you find in parade
what can you find a rave
what can be drunk in a dream
what can be dreampt in a dream
It’s all a tech it’s all a tongue talk
i’ll spell it out just pass me the chalk
if i could teach you soon would be taught
we’re looking for something to report
What can you find in parade
what can you find a rave
what can be drunk in a dream
what can be dreampt in a dream
I don’t have an all time favorite but my at the moment favorite is:
Someone must have loved you but not the way that I do
Your missing what I’m trying to say ain’t nothin’ getting’ in my way
Tell me that’s fantastic, promise me you’ll always sigh
I love it when you look into my beautiful eyes and lose control. The Killers.

“the sun poured in like butterscotch and stuck to all my senses”

“I’m gonna find me a man, love him so well, love him so strong, love him so slow
We’re gonna go way beyond the walls of this fortress
And we won’t be afraid, we won’t be afraid, and though the darkness may come our way
We won’t be afraid to be alive anymore
And we’ll grow kindness in our hearts for all the strangers among us
Till there are no strangers anymore”
No Bad News, Patty Griffin

“My Best Girl”- Lucero
“I got a twenty dollar bill, that says no ones ever seen you without make up. Your always made up. And I’m sick of your tattoos, and the way you always criticize the smiths, and morrisy. And I know that your a sucker for anything acoustic. When I say let’s keep in touch, I really mean I wish that you’d grow up. This is the first song for your mix tape, and its short just like your temper. Somewhat golden like the afternoons we used to spend before you got to cool.”
“Mix Tape”- Brand New
“Can we count on our conversations to restore us like energon cubes?
Made one wish for a permanent kiss that would echo through these bones like arsenic.

Rick Astley-Never gonna give you up
We’re no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitment’s what’s I’m thinking of
You wouldn’t get this from any other guy
I just wanna tell you how I’m feeling
Gotta make you understand
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
We’ve know each other for so long
Your heart’s been aching
But you’re too shy to say it
Inside we both know what’s been going on
We know the game and we’re gonna play it
And if you ask me how I’m feeling
Don’t tell me you’re too blind to see
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
Repeat Chorus
Give you up, give you up
Give you up, give you up
Never gonna give,
Never gonna give, give you up
Never gonna give,
Never gonna give, give you up
Last four lines repeated
I just wanna tell you how I’m feeling
Gotta make you understand
Chorus times three
“Zero” by Smashing Pumpkins.
Emptiness is loneliness
And loneliness is cleanliness
And cleaniless is godliness
And god is empty just like me
“Are we alive, or just breathing?”
-Killswitch Engage
“I have opened my eyes to see the world that surrounds me daily
I refuse to be led by the majority can’t compromise I and I to pass judgement
judgement will be passed upon you I will stand up for who I am never moved
by condemnation no one is placed higher than another no matter race
or creed or gender we must teach forgiveness and compassion for all life
through understanding of our differences we will find respect for one
another we are all flesh and blood I am not afraid to speak my mind no matter
the consequences stay true to myself through the humble eyes of a child
we will realize true equality they cannot take me from me
they cannot take you from you they cannot take I from I”
-Killswitch Engage
