That's just off the top of my head.

I turned your picture to the wall

I don't wanna see you anymore

You once were nice to me

Sugar and spice to me

Now you're as salty as you can be

 

We had some good times, I recall

We don't ever have them anymore

Now you just lie to me

Then say goodbye to me

I can't believe this is happening to me

 

When I call you on the phone

You are never there

And I sit home all alone

You don't even care

 

So I'll just turn your picture to the wall

I ain't gonna see you anymore

It's all a memory

Now it can never be

I'll never see you at all

'Cause I will just turn your picture to the wall

Him and I were having drinks one night in a bar at Newport Beach. We were both silent most of the night and very hostile towards each other. We sat at the small bar overlooking the ocean. This song played on the jukebox and I wanted to cry. At that moment my heart felt like it was over.

 

BLACK-PEARL JAM

 

Hey... oooh...



Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay

Were laid spread out before me, as her body once did

All five horizons revolved around her soul, as the earth to the sun

Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn

Ooh, and all I taught her was everything

Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore

And now my bitter hands shake beneath the clouds

Of what was everything

All the pictures had

All been washed in black, tattooed everything

I take a walk outside, I'm surrounded by some kids at play

I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear?

And twisted thoughts that spin round my head

I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning

How quick the sun can, drop away

And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass

Of what was everything

All the pictures had

All been washed in black, tattooed everything

All the love gone bad, turned my world to black

Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be, yeah

Uh huh... uh huh... ooh...

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life

I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky

But why, why, why can't it be, can't it be mine?

Ugh, this song is a killer. The first time my ex and I kissed, this was the song that started to play on my iPhone. Throughout the course of our relationship he kept reminding me of it. We are both really into music so it was a special thing for us. I knew we were doomed from that moment on because it's a really sad song. Not a good song for a first kiss. I'm a potter as well so the whole clay reference is kind of uncanny. I can't stand to listen to it anymore. It's such a great song.

Maybe not a good song for a first kiss but now when he hears it, it will remind him of you guys. It holds a special meaning for both of you. And if he has it on his ipod or playlist I'm sure he comes across it. That song is more relevant now that you guys are broken up. When we first kissed our song was "Knockin on Heaven's Door" by Guns N Roses. After about a year he got a tattoo of a old spanish like gun with roses around it. Said it was for us but I dont think so...he was such a liar.

Regardless, he still has that memory. I don't have any tattoos (this being one of the reasons why), but I would imagine; Looking at a tattoo, I would automatically think of the day I got it. Or the day it started (if it was a big one). And the events that were happening in my life at that time would pop up. For most people that have tattoos in Western culture get them for specific reasons, and they each have a story behind them. It may not a direct reference to you (such as a name) but that memory is forever embedded in his skin. Even if he gets another tattoo to cover it up. It's still there. Forever. GnR was your thing as a couple. The gun with a rose is a pretty direct reference. Anyways, being an artist, this is what kind of things go through my head. I may be completely over thinking it, but it's a safe bet to say you are forever with him. In the least cheesiest way possible. xo :bunny:

I've been listening to Matchbox Twenty's album "Yourself or Someone Like You" on repeat for days on end now.

 

Long Day, Kody, and Busted are the 3 that are really hitting home for me right now.

  • collide - Howie day
  • superman - five for fighting
  • End where I begin - The script
  • You'll think of me - Keith Urban
  • Smoke in the rain - Chad Brownlee
  • This = love - The script

I have a few tattoos and you are right. I think about the day i got them, who was there , why i got it and what does it mean. At times I dont notice them but when people ask about them i think about all that. I guess I never really saw it like that. He's covered in tattoos kind of so idk if he thinks of me but he did tell people it was for us so I guess lol You made my day a little brighter today china cat sunflower. At times I think I wasnt that important to him but little things like this make me see that at some point I meant a lot to him.

So he has a lot of tattoos-some may have more significance than the others. Thus, all are significant enough to have made it a permanent mark on his body. Take it for what it is. Own it. You deserve it, Petunia. And I'm glad I could make your day a little brighter. I speak whole heartedly.

 

To get back on topic, if you want a REAL feel good song...puff a little tree, pour yourself a nice glass of red wine and take 5 minutes of your busy life to listen to this song:

 

 

It will put a little jump in your step, take you away from the harsh realities of everyday life, and remind you life is really great. At least that's what it does for me.

Your sorry eyes; they cut through bone

They make it hard to leave you alone

Leave you here wearing your wounds

Waving your guns at somebody new

 

Baby you're lost

Baby you're lost

Baby you're a lost cause

 

There's too many people you used to know

They see you coming they see you go

They know your secrets and you know theirs

This town is crazy; nobody cares

 

Baby you're lost

Baby you're lost

Baby you're a lost cause

 

I'm tired of fighting

I'm tired of fighting

Fighting for a lost cause

 

There's a place where you are going

You ain't never been before

No one left to watch your back now

No one standing at your door

That's what you thought love was for

 

Baby you're lost

Baby you're lost

Baby you're a lost cause

 

I'm tired of fighting

I'm tired of fighting

Fighting for a lost cause

My immortal



 

 

I'm so tired of being here

Suppressed by all my childish fears

And if you have to leave

I wish that you would just leave

'Cause your presence still lingers here

And it won't leave me alone

 

 

These wounds won't seem to heal

This pain is just too real

There's just too much that time cannot erase

 

 

[Chorus:]

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears

When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears

And I held your hand through all of these years

But you still have

All of me

 

 

You used to captivate me by your resonating light

Now I'm bound by the life you left behind

Your face – it haunts my once pleasant dreams

Your voice – it chased away all the sanity in me

 

 

These wounds won't seem to heal

This pain is just too real

There's just too much that time cannot erase

 

 

[Chorus]



 

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone

But though you're still with me

I've been alone all along

 

 

[Chorus]



 

...me, me, me.

Don't know what to do anymore

I've lost the only love worth fighting for

I'll drown in my tear storming sea,

That would show you, that would make you hurt like me

 

All the same

I don't want mudslinging games

It's such a shame

To let you walk away

 

Is there a chance?

A fragment of light at the end of the tunnel?

A reason to fight?

Is there a chance you may change your mind?

Or are we ashes and wine?

 

Don't know if our fate's already sealed

This day's spinning circus on a wheel

I'm ill with the thought of your kiss

Coffee laced intoxicating on her lips

 

Shut it out

I've got no claim on you now

Not allowed to wear your freedom down

 

Is there a chance?

A fragment of light at the end of the tunnel?

A reason to fight?

Is there a chance you may change your mind?

Or are we ashes and wine?

 

I'll tear myself away

That is what you need

There is nothing left to say

But

 

Is there a chance?

A fragment of light at the end of the tunnel?

A reason to fight?

Is there a chance you may change your mind?

Or are we ashes and wine?

The day's still ashes and wine

Or are we ashes?

 

 

 

Your fingertips across my skin

The palm trees swaying in the wind

Images

 

You sang me Spanish lullabies

The sweetest sadness in your eyes

Clever trick

 

I never want to see you unhappy

I thought you'd want the same for me

 

Goodbye, my almost lover

Goodbye, my hopeless dream

I'm trying not to think about you

Can't you just let me be?

So long, my luckless romance

My back is turned on you

I should've known you'd bring me heartache

Almost lovers always do

 

We walked along a crowded street

You took my hand and danced with me

Images

 

And when you left you kissed my lips

You told me you'd never ever forget these images, no

 

I never want to see you unhappy

I thought you'd want the same for me

 

Goodbye, my almost lover

Goodbye, my hopeless dream

I'm trying not to think about you

Can't you just let me be?

So long, my luckless romance

My back is turned on you

I should've known you'd bring me heartache

Almost lovers always do

 

I cannot go to the ocean

I cannot drive the streets at night

I cannot wake up in the morning

Without you on my mind

So you're gone and I'm haunted

And I bet you are just fine

Did I make it that easy

To walk right in and out of my life?

 

 

A Fine Frenzy - Near to You

 

He and I had something beautiful

But so dysfunctional, it couldn't last

I loved him so but I let him go

'Cause I knew he'd never love me back

 

Such pain as this

Shouldn't have to be experienced

I'm still reeling from the loss,

Still a little bit delirious

 

Near to you, I am healing

But it's taking so long

'Cause though he's gone

And you are wonderful

It's hard to move on

Yet, I'm better near to you.

 

You and I have something different

And I'm enjoying it cautiously

I'm battle scarred, I am working oh so hard

To get back to who I used to be

 

He's disappearing

Fading subtly

I'm so close to being yours

Won't you stay with me

Please

 

Near to you, I am healing

But it's taking so long

'Cause though he's gone

And you are wonderful

It's hard to move on

Yet, I'm better near to you.

 

I only know that I am

Better where you are

I only know that I am

Better where you are

I only know that I belong

Where you are

Girlfriend in a coma, I know

I know - it's serious

Girlfriend in a coma, I know

I know - it's really serious

 

There were times when I could

Have "murdered" her

(But you know, I would hate

Anything to happen to her)

 

 

NO, I DON'T WANT TO SEE HER

 

 

Do you really think

She'll pull through ?

Do you really think

She'll pull through ?

Do ...

 

 

Girlfriend in a coma, I know

I know - it's serious

My, my, my, my, my, my baby, goodbye

 

 

There were times when I could

Have "strangled" her

(But you know, I would hate

Anything to happen to her)

WOULD YOU PLEASE

LET ME SEE HER !

 

 

Do you really think

She'll pull through ?

Do you really think

She'll pull through ?

Do ...

Let me whisper my last goodbyes

 

 

I know - IT'S SERIOUS

mine is toni Braxton- he wasn't man enough.

 

Rather than be there supportive, appreciate my love and kindness but instead abused it, he used me financially, emotionally and then ran to his mothers when my money was running low.

 

Thank god he ran. Best thing he did. Otherwise would be in even more debt than i'm in :)

 

upward and forward!!!
