Everything seemed so absurd until the night I finally heard the sound of Coltrane - it brought me to my knees

Why can't someone like you be with someone like me?

Fefe Dobson - Kiss Me Fool

Tell me who should I be to make you love me?
Tell me what does it mean to be alone?
Can't you see me standing staring out from the distance,
Hear my cry if you'd only listen...
Out of focus, into me and you

Kiss me fool, if you care
If your words have any meaning.
Playing it cool is so unfair
Why this veil of secrecy?
God forbid, your friends found out what we did
Why can't someone like you be with someone like me?

Tell me who should I be to make you love me?
Tell me what does it mean to be alone?
Can't you see me standing staring out from the distance,
Hear my cry if you'd only listen...
Out of focus, into me and you

Touch me fool, if your allowed.
I'll be dancing in the corner
It's so cruel to play it proud, take your hands and cover me.
I'm aware that all in love is fair, but that's no reason to make me feel this way.

Tell me who should I be to make you love me?
Tell me what does it mean to be alone?
Can't you see me standing staring out from the distance,
Hear my cry if you'd only listen...
Out of focus, into me and you

And it hurts me so bad to deny it, oooh
These feelings are out of control.
Do you know what it's like to want something so bad...
And then having to let it go?
And it hurts me to know that this time in our lives...
So soon will be in the past
And you spend it pretending your playing it cool.
Never knowing,
Never knowing,
Never knowing what,
Never knowing what we should've been.

Tell me who should I be to make you love me?
Tell me what does it mean to be alone?
You've got me wondering if I'm good enough.
Pretty enough, giving enough, special enough

Tell me who should I be to make you love me?
Who should I be? Who should I be? Ooooh...
To make you love me?
Who should I be? Who should I be? Ooooh...
To make you love me?
Who should I be? Who should I be? Ooooh...
To make you love me.........?

All that love got you nowhere

Curtis Peoples - Exit Scene

She said
Take a breath and take me somewhere
Away from here, to somewhere new
All that love got you nowhere
A better life driving to

She just needed to go
She just needed to know
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight

I see the tears falling so hard
With nothing here, she screams out loud
It'll take a while to heal up those scars
It'll make it better for her somehow

She just needed to go
She just needed to know
Just needed to see for herself
That there was something else
She just needed to go
Tonight, tonight

One more mile to find your way
One more hour to make the day
One more mile it will be okay
Yeah, yeah

She just needed to go
She just needed to know

She just needed to go
She just needed to know
Just needed to see for herself
That there was something else
She just needed to go
She just needed to know


Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight

Take me as I come 'cause I can't stay long

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - Mary Jane's Last Dance

She grew up in an Indiana town
Had a good-lookin' mama who never was around
But she grew up tall and she grew up right
With them Indiana boys on them Indiana nights

Well, she moved down here at the age of eighteen
She blew the boys away, was more than they'd seen
I was introduced and we both started groovin'
She said, "I dig you baby, but I got to keep movin' on
Keep movin' on"

Last dance with Mary Jane, one more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creepin' in and I'm tired of this town again

Well, I don't know, but I've been told
You never slow down, you never grow old
I'm tired of screwin' up, tired of going down
Tired of myself, tired of this town

Oh, my my, oh, hell yes
Honey, put on that party dress
Buy me a drink, sing me a song
Take me as I come 'cause I can't stay long

Last dance with Mary Jane, one more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creepin' in and I'm tired of this town again

There's pigeons down on Market Square
She's standin' in her underwear
Lookin' down from a hotel room
Nightfall will be comin' soon

Oh, my my, oh, hell yes.
You got to put on that party dress
It was too cold to cry when I woke up alone
I hit my last number and walked to the road

Last dance with Mary Jane, one more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creepin' in and I'm tired of this town again

You can run and tell that, homeboy.

Songfession: Video Edition

This is the Ode to Antoine Dobson performed by Tony Lucca and Ernie Halter.

This video is from my first year at Hotel Carolina. Words cannot describe how much fun this event was. It was a hefty drive (about 11 hours one-way,) and I hit a tire on my way there and did $1000 worth of damage to my car, but I would say that was all worth it. Rock Ridge procured a phenomenal line-up, and the location couldn't have been any more gorgeous. The Windjammer is right on the beach, and the hotel where most people stayed is right next door. Unfortunately, this event has kind of gone downhill since certain people left the record label, but I have heard of another event that may be happening in its place. *Fingers crossed*

Don't you care about me anymore?

Maroon 5 - Wake Up Call

[Verse]

I didn't hear what you were saying.
I live on raw emotion baby
I answer questions never maybe
And I'm not kind if you betray me.
So who the hell are you to say we
Never would have made it babe.

[Bridge]

If you needed love
Well then ask for love
Could have given love
Now I’m taking love
And it’s not my fault
Cause you both deserve
What is coming now
So don’t say a word

[Chorus]

Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don't you care about me anymore?
Don’t you care about me? I don't think so.
Six foot tall
Came without a warning so I had to shoot him dead
He won't come around here anymore
Come around here? I don't think so.

[Breakdown]

Would have bled to make you happy
You didn't need to treat me that way
And now you beat me at my own game
And now I find you sleeping soundly
And your lovers screaming loudly
Hear a sound and hit the ground

[Bridge]

If you needed love
Well then ask for love
Could have given love
Now I’m taking love
And it’s not my fault
Cause you both deserve
What’s coming now

So don’t say a word

[Chorus]

Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don't you care about me anymore?
Don’t you care about me? I don't think so.
Six foot tall
Came without a warning so I had to shoot him dead
He won't come around here anymore
Come around here?
I don’t feel so bad, I don’t feel so bad, I don’t feel so bad

[Breakdown]

I'm so sorry darling
Did I do the wrong thing?
Oh, what was I thinking?
Is his heart still beating?

Woah oh ohh

[Chorus]

Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don't you care about me anymore?
Don’t you care about me? I don't think so.
Six foot tall
Came without a warning so I had to shoot him dead
He won't come around here anymore
Come around here anymore? I don’t feel so bad

Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don’t you care about me anymore?
Don’t you care about me? I don’t think so.
Six foot tall
Came without a warning so I had to shoot him dead
He won’t come around here anymore
No, he won’t come around here. I don’t feel so bad

I don’t feel so bad (Wake up call)
I don’t feel so bad (Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed)
I don’t feel so bad (Don’t you care about me anymore?)
Care about me? I don’t feel so bad.
Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don't you care about me anymore?

I melt in your mouth when you talk to me

David Ryan Harris - Prettygirl

You are as close as a girl can be
To ideal somehow you disagree
The world sees perfection but all you see
Is room for more improvement

Silly girl pretty girl
If you don't see
What a spell your sweet love has cast on me
Girl and I pray that never will this trance be broken

I melt, in your mouth when you talk to me
I wanna kiss you so slow and sweet
You are, the book that I want to read
In braille cover to cover

You're so deep inside
You're my DNA
You're how tall I am
You're how much I weigh
You're the reason someone had to pen the phrase:
"To know her is to love her"

Silly girl pretty girl
If you don't see
What a spell your sweet love has cast on me
Girl and I pray that never will this trance be broken

Everything you do is like a movie scene
Every pose you strike is from some magazine
And I want to turn your pages

Silly girl pretty girl
If you don't see
What a spell your sweet love has cast on me

Silly girl pretty girl
If you don't see
What a spell your sweet love has cast on me
Girl and I pray that never will this trance be broken

No no, no no

Silly girl pretty girl
If you don't see
What a spell your sweet love has cast on me
Girl and I pray that never will this trance be broken
