sleepless nights.

I seem to find myself up at this late (or early depending how you look at it) hour of the morning. Me and Nadia watched the movie 27 dresses (I'm sensing a chick flick movie pattern from today...) and now the DVD menu has repeated about 100 times because I don't wanna get up to turn it off. Nads is asleep on the couch by me snoring away. I'm not entirely sure why I am still up, but nonetheless I am. Hmm...so what to post about. There are endless possibilities, so I think I will make this one about whatever comes to mind first, which happens to be music (surprise, surprise). I wanted post a youtube vid on here or something but youtube has decided that it has a disability today and I can't figure out how to post a video on here anyways. Oh well. I guess maybe this calls for something else...

some music lyrics anyone?

One band that I have grown to love over the past year and summer especially has been a band called The Script. I will probably do a post entirely on them a little later, but I have decided that many of their lyrics describe my life situations over the past year or so. Since they have such a high meaning to me, maybe I can turn the post into a sort of dedication to them and their great skill for lyricizing (is that a word?)
Here are the lyrics to my favorite song of theirs:

"Before the Worst" - The Script

It's been a while since the two of us talked
About a week since the day you walked
Knowing things would never be the same
With your empty heart and mine full of pain
So explain to me, how it came to this
Take it back to the night we kissed
It was Dublin city on a Friday night
You were vodkas and coke,
I was Guinness all night
We were sitting with our backs against the world
Saying things that we thought but never heard
Who would have thought it would end up like this?
Where everything we talked about is gone
And the only chance we have of moving on
Is try to take it back Before it all went wrong

Before the worst, before we mend
Before our hearts decide
It's time to love again
Before too late, before too long
Lets try to take it back
Before it all went wrong

There was a time, that we'd stay up all night
Best friends talking till the daylight
Took the joys alongside the pain
With not much to loose, but so much to gain
Are hearing me?
Cause I don't wanna miss,
Set you a drift on memory bliss
It was Grafton Street on a rainy night
I was down on one knee and you where mine for life
We we're thinking we would never be apart
With your name tattooed across my heart
Who would have thought it would end up like this?
Where everything we talked about is gone
And the only chance we have of moving on
Is try to take it back Before it all went wrong

Before the worst, before we mend
Before our hearts decide
It's time to love again
Before too late, before too long
Lets try to take it back
Before it all went wrong

If the clouds don't clear
Then well rise above it, well rise above it
Heavens gate is so near
Come walk with me through
Just like we use to, just like we use to
Lets take it back
Before it all went wrong

Before the worst, before we mend
Before our hearts decide
It's time to love again
Before too late, before too long
Lets try to take it back
Before it all went wrong





Sometimes I find that its amazing that someone else could write a song that describes something that happened in your life so well. It only makes me appreciate music that much more.

Very much awake,
