Song of the Week

just because of my recent buffy spree (yes i'm an effin' geek) i figured i'd do a song from the infamous musical episode. feel free to watch it on youtube if you don't own it...

Something to Sing About
The Cast of Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Once More, With Feeling (yes, there is an album)

Life’s a show,
And we all play our parts,
And when the music starts,
We open up our hearts.

Its alright if something’s come out wrong,
We’ll sing a happy song,
And you can sing along.
Where there’s life, there hope

Everysdays a gift,
Wishes can come true,
Whistle while you work,
So hard all day…

To be like other girls,
To fit in, in this glittering world.

Don’t give me songs,
Don’t give me songs.

Give me something to sing about.

Anya and Tara:
Ah ah ah ahhhhhh

Buffy:
I need something to sing about….

Anya and Tara:
Ah ah ah ahhhhhh

Buffy:
Life’s a song,
You don’t get to rehearse,
And every single verse,
Can make it that mush worse.

Still my friends,
Don’t know why I ignore…
The million things or more,
I should be dancing for.

All the joy,
Life ends.
Family and friends
All the twists and bends,
Knowing that it ends.
Well that depends….

On if they let you go,
On if they know enough to know,
that when u vow,
You leave the crowd.

There was no pain.
No fear,
No doubt,
Till they pulled me out,
Of heaven.

So that’s my refrain,
I live in hell,
Cause I’ve been expelled from heaven.
I think I was in heaven

So give me something to sing about,
Please, give me something…

Spike:
Life’s not a song,
Life isn’t bliss
Life is just this,
It’s living.

You’ll get along,
The pain that you feel
Only can heal,
By living.

You have to go on living,
So one of us is living.



it was surprisingly hard to choose one of the songs to post, so do me a favor and listen to all of them. :D

hehehe yea

[welcome.]

navigating around the school hallways and seeing the people walk by, i look into their faces. i notice their hair color, whether they wear glasses, what color eyes they have, who they walk with... its corny, but i try to look past all of that, too. once and awhile its nice for someone as shy as me to pass another person in the hall, a complete stranger no less, who dares to make eye contact and sends my heart into flutters. i can't help thinking, "that person saw me." but its not really the act of "seeing" itself, its more the act of "searching," that means most to me. i feel lost. i feel disposable; a picture frame that gets a scratch across the glass and is thrown away, just to be replaced. i don't really have a problem with that, i don't feel like i need to be pitied or ... that i need to seek attention. its the replacement that bothers me. i want to offer something that no one else can, i just haven't found that thing yet. this is just the ramblings of a high school no one who likes to watch rather then do. i like to think of myself as rather quiet, yet excitable and fun to be around. but there's always that underlying feeling of unease and awkwardness, that i've only been able to overcome a few times in my life. i don't want to change who i am. i don't want others to pretend to see in me what they don't. i want people to see the bad side of me, and spend the time searching for the good. i look for the best in others, and often times face the flaws in myself. welcome to my public diary...
