Don't Be So Hard

Don't be so hard on yourself
The name of the game is humiliation,
And thanks for your admiration.
I never thought I'd say this:
The way that we play has such confrontation:
And guilt by association.

"Hold me, hold me..."
"If I were to..."
"I can't, can't, I swear I can't let you."
"It's all in your hands but I'll do what I can,
So you can do what you have to."

Don't think too hard about it,
You never thought I'd get this far,
Would get this far without you.
Relax, stand back and watch it happen.
I'll wave my goodbyes into the night and say

"Hold me, hold me..."
"If I were to..."
"I can't, can't, I swear I can't let you."
"It's all in your hands but I'll do what I can,
So you can do what you have to."

Say you'll never, ever. Say you'll never, ever.
Say you'll never let me go.
Say you'll never, ever. Say you'll never, ever.
Say you'll never tell a soul.

"Hold me, hold me..."
"If I were to..."
"I can't, can't, I swear I can't let you."
"It's all in your hands but I'll do what I can,
So you can do what you have to."

Disappointment.
All I can do is hope for the best the next time around.

Believe Me I'm Lying

Hey, you always seem to catch me when I lying
About the stupidest of things.
Okay, you stand there while I stab you in the back
With the words (that I told you)
"I never, never, never, should have taken this so far."

Go ahead and buy yourself a drink
Cause you know you're deserving of it
Go ahead and cry yourself to sleep
And think how you hate me so bad.
You know hate me so bad.

I could write about a thousand songs to impress you.
But I wouldn't want to do that
I could make you feel like queen of the world but I won't
Because you’re full of imperfections.

This is coming from a third perspective
All I’m saying is you need to be selective
This is coming from a gentleman
With your needs in mind, I got his on the sideline

Go ahead and buy yourself a drink
Cause you know you're deserving of it
Go ahead and cry yourself to sleep

Go ahead and buy yourself a drink.
Cause you know you’re deserving of it.
Go ahead and cry yourself to sleep,
And think how you hate me so bad.

Fast times this week.

Tuesday was pretty awesome. Cobra Fucking Starship!
OK. We ended up lining up for about 12 hours with a bunch of other girls. 10 minutes separated us from them. We're awesome. Anyways, this was the day I hate all Meet and Greets. Of course, when it's me, its ok xP. Enough about that. The show was awesome. It was awkward during Sing It Loud and Hit The Lights. I didn't know any lyrics, just song titles. I have them on my iTunes, yet hardly any plays. Oh well. FTSK came on. Pretty awesome. It was my first FTSK experience and it was quite entertaining. They played ''Catastrophe'' which I hear they don't play very often which was a bonus for a first-timer like me. Then before Cobra came on, my dear Jenicka, kind of.. passed out. But it was all cool when she came back during the middle of the set...

The show ended at around 11pm. It was freaking cold by this time. But the end of the show means chillage with band members. I must say that I freaking love Suarez! Thinking of him just makes me go, "awwww''. While taking our picture, he pulled my arm over his shoulder, saying "Come on, get your arm around me", which I thought was so cute. Because I usually just put the arm/hand on the back, and it was cute how he told me to do that. While waiting for this photo, I was drinking a can of coke, and Jenicka asked if I wanted her to hold it during the pic and I don't remember who it was but we decide to have a bit of product placement in this photo. So, me holding a can of coke, with my arm around Suarez, waiting for a pic. Then, he joins in on the action and holds the can of coke with me, which I thought was super cute. And the cherry on top, which I didn't realize, was the face he was making which was adorable. Mind you, this man is probably at least 25.
I heart Suarez.

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.

Happy Ending

This is the way you left me,
I'm not pretending.
No hope, no love, no glory,
No Happy Ending.
This is the way that we love,
Like it's forever.
Then live the rest of our life,
But not together.

Wake up in the morning, stumble on my life
Can't get no love without sacrifice
If anything should happen, I guess I wish you well
A little bit of heaven, but a little bit of hell

This is the hardest story that I've ever told
No hope, or love, or glory
Happy endings gone forever more
I feel as if I'm wasted
And I'm wastin' every day

This is the way you left me,
I'm not pretending.
No hope, no love, no glory,
No Happy Ending.
This is the way that we love,
Like it's forever.
Then live the rest of our life,
But not together.

2 o'clock in the morning, something's on my mind
Can't get no rest; keep walkin' around
If I pretend that nothin' ever went wrong, I can get to my sleep
I can think that we just carried on

This is the hardest story that I've ever told
No hope, or love, or glory
Happy endings gone forever more
I feel as if I'm wasted
And I'm wastin' every day

This is the way you left me,
I'm not pretending.
No hope, no love, no glory,
No Happy Ending.
This is the way that we love,
Like it's forever.
Then live the rest of our life,
But not together.

A Little bit of love, little bit of love
Little bit of love, little bit of love[repeat]

I feel as if I'm wasted
And I waste everyday

This is the way you left me,
I'm not pretending.
No hope, no love, no glory,
No Happy Ending.
This is the way that we love,
Like it's forever.
To live the rest of our life,
But not together.

I don't know how much longer I can wait. It's hard knowing something better will come along, but does it have to take so long? I'm just a impatient girl who wants only what the heart wants.
