Rumored Nights

I walked you home most days
to beat the traffic after class
with all my best intentions.
But when the weather changed,
like fine print, you were hard to read.
Blind-folded, eyes wide open,
staring through me.

I never heard the words that were spoken,
with the rumored nights, with the rendezvous.
I never thought the whispers were true ‘til now…

I saw things that I shouldn’t have tonight, tonight.
I know now what I couldn’t have,
I’ve gone too far to turn it back
I’ve gone too far to turn it back

Followed you home halfway,
over the fence to your backyard,
with all my best intentions.
And through your window frame,
outstretched and lying on your bed,
Blind-folded, eyes wide open,
staring through me.

I never heard the words that were spoken,
with the rumored nights, with the rendezvous.
I never look at you like I used to now

I saw things that I shouldn’t have tonight, tonight.
I know now what I couldn’t have,
I’ve gone too far to turn it back
I’ve gone too far to turn it back

Uninvited, no one knows
how much I care, how bad you are,
How good we’d be, but you won’t let me in
Goodnight I’m leaving.

I never heard the words that were spoken,
with the rumored nights, with the rendezvous.
I never thought the whispers were true ‘til now…

I saw things that I shouldn’t have tonight, tonight.
I know now what I couldn’t have,
I’ve gone too far to turn it back
I saw things that I shouldn’t have tonight, tonight.
I know now what I couldn’t have,
I’ve gone too far to turn it back

I walked you home most days
I had the best intentions
I walked you home most days
I had the best intentions

I walked you home most day

Day One of concert week has come and passed and I have nothing more to say other than that I love The Academy Is... (what else is new?). From waiting in line for 15 hours in -10ish degree weather with my bestie, to sketched out drug transactions (or so it seemed), to annoying teenage hipsters, and to bitches in green pants, and finally to 20 minutes of painful kneeling before the show even started... I can safely say that all that was worth it once the lights were off and The Academy Is... took to the stage. They played songs from all three albums. I was surprised how much of Fast Times they played because it just went by so quick. Here's a list (in no particular order) of the songs that were played...

Fast times：
Summer Hair = Forever Young
About A Girl
Rumored Nights
His Friday Girl
After The Last Midtown Show
One More Weekend
The Test (Acoustic)

Santi:
Neighbors
Everything We Had
Seed
Big Mess

Almost Here:
Slow Down
CLASSIFIEDS!
Checkmarks
Black Mamba
Phrase That Pays
Almost Here

It was an incredible set and memories to last a lifetime (especially for Jenicka, ask her lol). The day was full of laughter, love and friends. What more could I ask for? In the end, everything happens for a resaon and it wouldn't be the same if it didnt. And, I would do it all again.

Wake Up

I'm going to ride this plane out of your life again.
I wish that I could stay but you argue.
More than this I wish you could've seen my face
In backseat staring out the window.

I'll do anything for you,
Kill anyone for you.

So leave yourself intact
'Cause I will be coming back.
In a phrase to cut these lips,
I love you.

The morning will come
In the press of every kiss
With your head upon my chest
Where I will annoy you
With every waking breath
Until you decide to wake up.

I've earned through hope and faith
The curves around your face
That I'm the one you'll hold forever.
If morning never comes for either one of us,
Then this I pray to you wherever.

I'll do anything for you.
This story is for you.
('Cause I'd do anything you want me to... for you.)
I'll do anything for you,
Kill anyone for you.

So leave yourself intact
'Cause I won't be coming back.
In a phrase to cut these lips,
I loved you.

The morning will come
In the press of every kiss
With your head upon my chest
Where I will annoy you
With every waking breath
Until you decide to wake up.

The morning will come
In the press of every kiss
With your head upon my chest
Where I will annoy you
With every waking breath
'Til you decide to wake up.

Things are getting a little more intense each day I choose to do nothing... maybe I should start doing my work? Anyways, love is in 8 days. Translation: The Academy Is... in fucking 8 days! I am so excited. New songs, new fun, new people, and new adventures. For the first time in the fall/winter season, I'm going to be camping out with Jenicka to secure our spot in Bill's direct line of vision! It has to happen. Like seriously. Or serious ass kicking will occur. Don't say I warned you teenage hipsters. All my training has come to this moment (when I say 'training' I mean visualization of kicking ass xP). I have 'combat' boots for a reason.
