Rainy Day..



So, I'm avid listener of my ipod at work. It helps me to escape the world and not feed into the drama of others lives. It is a good Friend to me, I believe he deserves a name, I will work on it. Anyways, recently in the past few days I have been finding a song on shuffle and listening to on repeat a good part of the day. The past two days have been 'A Bird Song' by Ingrid Michaelson and in today's line up the winner was 'Fix You' by Coldplay.
So as I sit here in tears watching it rain and listening to music, today fix you was just kind of the way of expressing how I felt through lyrics--not the whole song just parts. Lyrics have a beautiful of expressing life to me. I feel like I use everything thats important to me in life to express how I feel to an extent instead of actually being able to write /speak it. Anywho here are the lyrics, feel free to read.

When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse.

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

And high up above earth or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream, down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face and I...


When I would play my song You used to sing along. I always seem to forget How fragile are the very strong. I'm sorry I can't steal you I'm sorry I can't stay So I put band-aids on your knees And watch you fly away I'm sending you away tonight I'll put you on a bird's strong wing I'm saving you the best way I know how I hope again one day to hear you sing You know we're not so far away Get on a boat, get on a train And if you ever think you're drowning I'll try to slow the rain In two years or so Drop me a line Write me a letter I hope to find you're doing better, better than today, better everyday I'm sending you away tonight I'll put you on a bird's strong wing I'm saving you the best way I know how I hope again one day to hear you sing I'm saving you the only way that I know how I hope again one day to hear you sing I hope again one day to see you bring your smile back around again
