spin

miss jamming with the lads
:|

broken bottles in the hotel lobby

seems to me like i'm just scared of never feeling it again

i know it's crazy to believe in silly things

but it's not that easy

i remember it now, it takes me back to when it all first started

but i've only got myself to blame for it, and i accept that now

it's time to let it go, go out and start again

but it's not that easy

but i've got high hopes, it takes me back to when we started

high hopes, when you let it go, go out and start again

high hopes, ooohhh when it all comes to an end

but the world keeps spinning around

and in my dreams, i meet the ghosts of all the people who've come and gone

memories, they seem to show up so quick but they leave you far too soon

naive, i was just staring at the barrel of a gun

and i do believe that

yeah but i've got high hopes

it takes me back to when we started

high hopes, when you let it go, go out and start again

high hopes, ooohhh when it all comes to an end

now the world keeps spinning

yeah the world keeps spinning around

high hopes

it's all ending...

real, real soon.

OAOA

我相信 苦涩的眼泪

我不信 甜美的誓言

我相信 音乐就该音乐

我相信 爱情的纯粹

我不信 华丽的诗篇

我相信 热烈的争辩

我不信 无声的和谐

我相信 秒秒的瞬间

我不信 年年的永远

我相信 摇滚就能万岁

快张开你的嘴 OA OA

再不管你是谁 OA OA

人生都太短暂

别想 别怕 别后退

现在 就是 永远

出生的那一年 OA OA

转眼就这一天 OA OA

人生都太短暂

去疯 去爱 去浪费

和我 再唱 OA OA OA

she is

do not get me wrong, i cannot wait for you to come home

for now you're not here and i'm not there, it's like we're on our own

to figure it out, consider how to find a place to stand

instead of walking away, and instead of nowhere to land

this is going to break me clean in two

this is going to bring me close to you

she is everything i need that i never knew i wanted

she is everything i want that i never knew i needed

it's all up in the air and we stand still to see what comes down

i don't know where it is, i don't know when, but i want you around

when it falls into place with you and i, we go from if to when

your side and mine are both behind, it's indication 

this is going to bring me clarity

this'll take the heart right out of me

she is everything i need that i never knew i wanted

she is everything i want that i never knew i needed

this is going to bring me to my knees

i just want to hold you close to me

incomprehensible

if it's wrong to be honestly concerned then i don't think anything else can even make sense anymore.

i can't even begin to say how baffling it was... try as i might, i am unable to understand why, and i only wish that my true intentions could have been more apparent.

then again, aren't they all the time?

it's too cold outside

for angels to fly

and an angel will die

covered in white

closed-eye, and hopin' for a better life

this time

we'll fade out tonight

straight down the line

idealistic fool

whenever i am blessed with the opportunity to own something perfect, i swear i'd give it the best care and protection it deserves. i'd keep it safe and far away from harm, and keep it just the way it is - perfect.
and i'd always want to keep it that way, shiny and unblemished...
with each time i set my eyes upon it again, it would trigger the same elation and joy that i initially experienced when i first saw it.

i would really hate to see the first signs of wear and tear, when they appear.
even be it a tiny scratch underneath where people would hardly notice.
and many would just say that "oh it's just a small scratch that can't be seen... don't worry about it."

but no, i cannot accept that.
it's simply giving an excuse, which will only lead to more and more excuses in the future.
constantly telling yourself that "hey it's just this one time..." will not help the matter, and in fact, i believe that it will only lead to increased tendency to let your guard down and then make up more excuses when scratches occur again.

in the end, the effort to maintain your perfect object just diminishes to a near zero.
and then, what happened to that drive in the beginning?
worse still, what happens to the poor object?
it just slowly crumbles, and the cuts become longer and deeper with each additional time it is dropped... touch wood it shatters completely.

which is why i have always made the conscious effort to not loosen my grip on such matters, because it will only result in terrible things to come. we stop caring, we stop making the effort, we lose the sense of responsibility we once had, we become apathetic to something that is in fact so very dear to our hearts.

so, am i too idealistic?
and is it too much to ask for?

it's unrealistic to keep something perfect forever.
but i refuse to give up these stubborn efforts of mine.

all i want is to protect my dream come true.

虽然眼里没出现泪滴，

但心里的雨却其实下得很大，

很大。

vanilla twilight

the stars lean down to kiss you

and i lie awake and miss you

pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere

'cause i'll doze off safe and soundly

but i'll miss your arms around me

i'd send a postcard to you, dear

'cause i wish you were here

i'll watch the night turn light-blue

but it's not the same without you

because it takes two to whisper quietly

the silence isn't so bad

'til i look at my hands and feel sad

'cause the spaces between my fingers are right where yours fit perfectly

i'll find repose in new ways

though i haven't slept in two days

'cause cold nostalgia chills me to the bone

but drenched in vanilla twilight

i'll sit on the front porch all night

waist-deep in thought because when i think of you

i don't feel so alone

i don't feel so alone

i don't feel so alone

as many times as i blink

i'll think of you tonight

i'll think of you tonight

when violet eyes get brighter

and heavy wings grow lighter

i'll taste the sky and feel alive again

and i'll forget the world that i knew

but i swear i won't forget you

oh, if my voice could reach back through the past

i'd whisper in your ear

"oh darling, i wish you were here."
