Don't they make a medicine for heart break?

Songfession: Song of the Week

Justin Timberlake - Drink You Away


Bitter sweet thing, could this be a dream
Or just the same nightmare that keeps me awake
Feel it in my brain, a tall shot of pain
Pour a little up now, for the love that we've made

I feel it in the morning, you’re still here in the morning
I see you, but you're gone
Telephone a doctor, I’m not okay
The bottom of the bottle, to fill this empty heart up
A thousand proof don’t change the truth
I tried it, but I can’t

I can’t drink you away
I’ve tried Jack, I’ve tried Jim,
I’ve tried all of their friends
But I can’t drink you away
All these rocks, I can’t swim out of this skin I'm living in, say
Now tell me, baby, don't they make a medicine for heart break
Ooh, tell me baby, oh yeah
Now don't they make a medicine for heart break

Got a pounding on my brain, so I drowned it away
When the sun comes up tomorrow
You can find me doing the same
'Cause I just can’t forget
The way we turned out this bad
And now the only thing that sleeps here is a ghost of you instead

And then I feel it in the morning, you’re still here in the morning
I see you, but you're gone
Telephone a doctor, I’m not okay
Bottom of the bottle, to fill this empty heart up
A thousand proof don’t change the truth
I tried it, but I can’t

I can’t drink you away
I’ve tried Jack, I’ve tried Jim,
I’ve tried all of their friends
But I can’t drink you away
All these rocks, I can’t swim out of this skin I'm living in, say
Tell me, baby, don't they make a medicine for heart break
Oh, tell me baby, one time
Now don't they make a medicine for heart break

Break it down

I can’t drink you, no I can’t drink you away, away
I can’t drink you, no I can’t drink you away, away
I can’t drink you, no I can’t drink you away, away
I can’t drink you, no I can’t drink you away, away, away

Ooh, I can’t drink you, I can’t drink you away
I can’t drink you away
I’ve tried Jack, I’ve tried Jim,
I’ve tried all of their friends
But I can’t drink you away
All these rocks, I can’t swim out of this skin I'm living in, say
So tell me, baby, don't they make a medicine for heart break
Oh, tell me baby, one time
Now don't they make a medicine for heart break

Tell me, baby, can't they make a medicine for my heart break, heart break
Tell me baby, yeah
Can't they make a medicine for my heart break
'Cause I can't drink you away
I’ve tried Jack, I’ve tried Jim,
I’ve tried all of their friends
I can’t drink you away
All these rocks, I can’t swim out of this skin I'm living in,

Now tell me, baby, don't they make a medicine for heart break
Ooh, no, tell me baby, oh yeah
Now don't they make a medicine for heart break

When we first kissed, I may have had a few drinks

Songfession: Video Edition



Curtis Peoples - Made For Me (Forever)

This video is from the 8-bit Heartbeat tour. I believe this was from the Wilmington, DE show. This song is Curtis' new single, and in his new music video, he is turned into a video game character. It's a great video and a cute song. I will be posting a recap of my few days following the tour very soon!

Your arms, they keep away the lonely

Songfession: Song of the Week

Brian McKnight - Never Felt This Way

There will never come a day
you'll ever hear me say
that I want and need to be without you.
I want to give my all.
Baby, just hold me.
Simply control me.
'Cuz your arms, they keep away the lonelies.

[chorus]
When I look into your eyes
then I realize
that all I need is you in my life.
All I need is you in my life.
'Cuz I've never felt this way about lovin'.
Never felt so good.
Never felt this way about lovin'
It feels so good.
How it takes my breath,
starts a pounding in my chest,
makes me weak, when I think about you.
Makes me wanna give my all,
Life wouldn't mean a thing.
Not a happy song to sing,
just emptiness if I had to live without you.

[repeat chorus]
'Cuz I've never felt this way about lovin', darlin'
Never felt so good.
Never felt this way about lovin'

It feels so good. woo!

It's like I'm not me

Songfession: Song of the Week

Kelly Clarkson - Addicted

It's like you're a drug
It's like you're a demon I can't face down
It's like I'm stuck
It's like I'm running from you all the time
And I know I let you have all the power
It's like the only company I seek is misery all around
It's like you're a leech
Sucking the life from me
It's like I can't breathe
Without you inside of me
And I know I let you have all the power
And I realize I'm never gonna quit you over time

It's like I can't breathe
It's like I can't see anything
Nothing but you
I'm addicted to you
It's like I can't think
Without you interrupting me
In my thoughts
In my dreams
You've taken over me
It's like I'm not me
It's like I'm not me

It's like I'm lost
It's like I'm giving up slowly
It's like you're a ghost that's haunting me
Leave me alone
And I know these voices in my head
Are mine alone
And I know I'll never change my ways
If I don't give you up now

It's like I can't breathe
It's like I can't see anything
Nothing but you
I'm addicted to you
It's like I can't think
Without you interrupting me
In my thoughts
In my dreams
You've taken over me
It's like I'm not me
It's like I'm not me

I'm hooked on you
I need a fix
I can't take it
Just one more hit
I promise I can deal with it
I'll handle it, quit it
Just one more time
Then that's it
Just a little bit more to get me through this
I'm hooked on you
I need a fix
I can't take it
Just one more hit
I promise I can deal with it
I'll handle it, quit it
Just one more time
Then that's it
Just a little bit more to get me through this

It's like I can't breathe
It's like I can't see anything
Nothing but you
I'm addicted to you
It's like I can't think
Without you interrupting me
In my thoughts
In my dreams
You've taken over me
It's like I'm not me
It's like I'm not me

I never thought you'd let me go

Songfession: Song of the Week

Tristan Prettyman - I Was Gonna Marry You

I gotta go
Time to spread my wings and fly
Higher than the blue sky
Never did me any good
Waiting around
Only so much that my heart can take
It doesn’t matter what you say
Wishing for all we could have been

Just so you know, just so you know
I never thought you'd let me go
I don’t even know the truth
Yeah we were fine, yeah we were fine
Then all at once you changed your mind
And I was gonna marry you

I gotta stay
As far away as I can get
Cause a part of me hasn’t left
If I get too close you're gonna pull me back in to
Thinking everything you said was true
But the ring around my finger proved
That I was your girl
But in the end it wasn’t what you wanted

Just so you know just so you know
I never thought you'd let me go
I don’t even know the truth
Yeah we were fine, yeah we were fine
Then all at once you changed your mind
And I was gonna marry you
Yeah I was gonna marry you

Take all the words you've spoken
And the promises you've broken
And throw them all into the ocean
And let it be
And late at night
When you're lying in your bed alone
Wishing it was still our home
But we both know its too late

Just so you know just so you know
I never thought you'd let me go
I don’t even know the truth
Yeah we were fine, yeah we were fine
Then all at once you changed your mind
And I was gonna marry you

I was gonna marry you.

You take me back like Nintendo

Songfession: Song of the Week

Anyone that knows me knows that I love me some Todd Carey. He had a new single hit iTunes this week, and I love it. Here are the lyrics, and feel free to check the song out on iTunes.

Todd Carey - Nintendo

Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa Whooooa

I met you at the grocery spot
With the sweat pants lookin all kinds of hot
And a box of Captain Crunch in your hand
Said, 'hmm, baby girl, that's my jam'
You ain't the kind of girl that needs fancy things
You like staying up late playing video games
Got a cherry ring pop, that's your only bling and

Chorus
You take me back like Nintendo
Like when we were 10 yo
Our hands out the window where ever we go
You bring me back like Atari
Like sleepover parties
Baby, I'm sorry but I'm not letting go
You got my heart blowing up 
Like the shoes with the pumps
Got my battleship sunk
And you already know
You take me back like Nintendo
Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoooa

You got a body that can make me scream
I wanna take you for a ride in my superman sheets
Got a old mix tape full of work out songs
Gonna take you to the point and make out all night long
Something about you I can't explain
But man you got me feeling like a kid again
And damn you got me crushing like way back when and

Chorus

Baby there's no denying
Light me up like Simon
Even when the cards are down
Yeah, I'm He-man, You're She-ra
Never gonna leave you
Always gonna be arooooound
Roooound

Something about you I can't explain
But man you got me feeling like a kid again
And damn you got me crushing like way back when 

Chorus

You take me back like Nintendo
Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoooa
