Airplanes
So, this one will be short, I promise. I just want to write about this amazing song by B.o.B. and Hayley Williams of Paramore. It's called Airplanes. The chorus is my favorite part. "Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars? I could really use a wish right now." I was walking tonight, listening to this song, and it makes me just want to stay outside and look up at the sky. I feel kind of stupid lately, kind of hopeless. As I already said, I can't function like I used to. I want to just forget it all. I've been trying so hard to be discovered, when in the end, all that really matters is that I enjoy doing what I do. I've been trying so hard, and it's starting to make me bored. I've decided that I'm just going to do what I do because I WANT TO. In the song, B.o.B. keeps saying that he was rapping for fun before he started doing it for money. He says that he wants to pretend it's like that again. So that's what I'm going to do... well, not rap, because obviously I suck at that. But you know what I mean.

Totally Unprepared
Okay, so I haven't been writing in this blog long enough to not write for a long time and suddenly show up again. I just really haven't been inspired lately. I've totally lost all my swag and I don't know why. I haven't been writing any of my stories lately, I haven't been drawing, not much singing, no self-lessons for piano, no cooking (excluding eggs. WOW), and I CAN'T EVEN TALK TO PEOPLE. I feel like a total idiot (which is also my status on facebook at the moment). I just can't figure out what's wrong with my brain. My creativity is GONE. No trace of it.
That's the exact reason why this blog is going to be complete crap.
So, I'm going write about my favorite song of all time. I found this about a year ago when I was listening to Jarrod Matthew (look him up on Youtube) with my friend. The song is by The Spill Canvas, who, at the moment, I'm quite into at the moment.
>>>> http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/spillcanvas/thetide.html <<< Lyrics. I decided to save some space and just give you guys the link. :)
The Tide is a very sad but amazing song about three siblings growing up on the beach with their parents. In the beginning of the song, everything seems like it's so nice and perfect for them, but as the song goes on, it shows how disfunctional the falling apart family is. The mother and father are constantly fighting, thus giving the children the wrong view of love. The father eventually leaves and the mother is left heartbroken. She tells her son about how Heaven and love are lies, and that he should just live his life the way he wants to and live for all the good moments.
When Mom finally just gives up at trying to fix things with Dad, she just doesn't care anymore, and she continues to tell her children about the lies of heaven and love. Soon enough, she realizes her kids are gone, and she can't find them anywhere. And as a matter of fact, I'm still not sure where they went. The song says that the tide swept them into the ocean. But does that mean the literal tide from the ocean? Or the tide of life? Not positive. You guys tell me.
Anyways, this song leaves me breathless everytime I listen to it. It gives me so much emotion. It's been tugging at my heart to write about it for so long; I just never got to it. And I had absolutely NO idea what to say.
So, yeah... I'm just gonna stop now, thank you very much. The music video is below.
