drink up, baby down
mmm, are you in or are you out
leave your things behind
'cause it's all going off without you
excuse me, too busy you're writing your tragedy
these mishaps
you bubble wrap
when you've no idea what you're like
so let go, jump in
oh well, whatcha waiting for
it's alright
'cause there's beauty in the breakdown
so let go, just get in
oh, it's so amazing here
it's alright
'cause there's beauty in the breakdown
it gains the more it gives
and then it rises with the fall
so hand me that remote
can't you see that all that stuff's a sideshow
such boundless pleasure
we've no time for later now
you can't await your own arrival
you've 20 seconds to comply
so let go, jump in
oh well, whatcha waiting for
it's alright
'cause there's beauty in the breakdown
so let go, just get in
oh, it's so amazing here
it's alright
'cause there's beauty in the breakdown
so let go, jump in
oh well, whatcha waiting for
it's alright
'cause there's beauty in the breakdown
so let go, just get in
oh, it's so amazing here
it's alright
'cause there's beauty in the breakdown
'cause there's beauty in the breakdown.
So I have no idea what that music video is about, But Frou Frou doesn't have a video for this song, so it's like somebody's compilation from the Garden State movie, which is ok cause that's where I just heard it...
I long to taste adventure like the nature of the sea,
Always moving, always hiding all the creatures from beneath.
Singing silent songs of sadness my heart waits for its chance,
To dance upon the ashes of my burned up little plans.
And I stand alone before the night.
My nakedness is so clear in the glow of the moonlight.
Life is old but so short.
We are young we want more.
I'm drowning, but I don't care, Cause when you got what I got, what I got, what I got
Who needs air?
I don’t need air.
My addiction to danger like the rush of the sea,
Like a wave on the rocks the lessons crash down on me.
I don’t need to prove the world to you only to myself.
So step back and look away as I dive into the swell.
I'm drowning, but I don't care, Cause when you got what I got, what I got, what I got
Who needs air?
Take me down to the river like a little child,
Take my hand and tell me its okay to be wild.
I never knew the world until I saw through your eyes,
I never knew my self until I ripped off my disguise.
I’m drowning, but I don’t care, Cause when you’ve got what I got, what I got, what I got
Who needs air?
I’m drowning, but I don’t care, Cause when you’ve got what I got, what I got, what I got
Who needs air?
(I have come to the realization that life is more than what I have accomplished.
And life is more then the realization that we have accomplished nothing at all.
True success is so selfless so drown in the lyrics of your life and give up the air that you breathe.
You don’t need anything.)
(This is not the actual music video btw...)
Anyone else read the book "Black" by Ted Dekker? It's an excellent book and you should read it. Definitely. But anyways, there's this one part of it where the main character throws himself into the lake of Elyon (God) and basically is underwater for over an hour, drowning in this water, but still alive because of the life that God gives...
Anyways... this book is really touching me and painting such a real picture in my mind of God's will and love for us...
And this song pretty much sums up that chapter in an amazing song.
The band "The Classic Crime" is a Christian band and I'd reccommend it to anyone.
For anyone who cares, i was quoted in episode eighteen of "i.". I was stoked out of my mind, I'm obsessed with that show. Check out 1:00. That's me. I posted that comment on episode seventeen. And they used it.
Friggin ridiculous.
In other 'Tube news... Anyone been keeping up with Transformers trailers??? This new one almost gave me a heart attack, I swear; you can ask Sommer she was sitting right next to me.
This movie is going to be off the hook. That 76 Camaro is off the hook.
I'm getting tickets for midnight. Anyone that wants to come with is welcome to.
I feel like I should have all these words about the feelings that I'm feeling but I don't. I don't have any words at all.
Which is strange because usually I have a lot to say about anything at random...
Also my voice is gone. My mom thinks it might be strep... or however you spell it... But that might be why I don't have anything to say...
But typing? hmmm....
I don't feel any different, I don't look any different... Well sure I sound different but that's just cause I don't sound like anything...
BigFoot crossed the Flaming River on Saturday... Went and got himself graduated...
I know its official because my mom just got home from Wal-Mart and she bought me this little stuffed smiley face with a "2007" grad cap on and when you throw it, it says things like "Congrats Grad!!"
It actually feels kinda empty... like something, this HUGE thing, that like... lived inside me just got ripped out and thrown away...
13 years of my life came and went and where was I? I was in there somewhere... probably wishing for the world that I could be where I am now, but now that I'm here... I wish for the world that I could be back there...
I'm really looking forward to starting college next year. The same way I looked forward to starting grade school, middle school, and high school... But this time its about me about the things that I WANT to do and I'm really looking forward to seeing how that goes... Probably not all it's cracked up to be but we'll see...
Right now I need to be at work... I'm eventually going to post all the pictures I took at graduation on Facebook so be looking for that.

Turn my mic up louder, I got to say somethin. Lightweights steppin' aside, when we comin. Feel it in your chest, the syllables get pumpin. People on the street, they panic and start running. Words on loose leaf, sheet complete coming. I jump on my mind, I summon the rhyme of dumping. Feeling the blind, I promise to let the sun in. Sick of the dark ways, we march to the drumming. Jump when they tell us they want to see jumping. Screw that, I want to see some fist pumping. Risk something. Take back what's yours Say something that you know they might attack you for cause I'm sick of being treated like I have before. Like it;s stupid standing for what I'm standing for. Like this war is really just a different brand of war. Like it doesn't cater to the rich and an abandoned the poor. Like they understand you in the back of the jet, When you can't put gas in your tank. These jerks are laughing their way to the bank and cashing their cheque asking you to have compassion and to have some respect.
For a leader so nervous in an obvious way Stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay and the rest of the world watching at the end of the day in the living room laughing like what did he say?
Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen
In my living room watching, But I am not laughing. 'Cause when it gets tense, I know what might happen. The world is cold, The bold men take action. Have to react, To getting blown into fractions. 10 years old is something to see, Another kid my age drugged under a G, Taken and bound and found later under a tree, I wonder if he thought the next one could be me. Do you see? The soldiers that are out today. That brush the dust with bulletproof vests away. It's ironic. At times like this you pray, But a bomb blew the mosque up yesterday. There's bombs in the buses, bikes, roads, inside your markets,your shops, your clothes, My dad, he's got a lot of fear I know but enough pride inside not to let that show. My brother had a book he would hold with pride A little red cover with a broken spine. In the back he hand wrote a quote inside, "When the rich wage war, it's the poor who die"
Meanwhile, the leader just talks away Stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay and the rest of the world watching at the end of the day both scared and angry like what did he say?
Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen.
With Hands Held High into a sky so blue the ocean opens up to swallow you.
With Hands Held High into a sky so blue the ocean opens up to swallow you.
With Hands Held High into a sky so blue the ocean opens up to swallow you.
With Hands Held High into a sky so blue the ocean opens up to swallow you.
With Hands Held High into a sky so blue the ocean opens up to swallow you.
With Hands Held High into a sky so blue the ocean opens up to swallow you."
