Words you say never seem
To live up to the ones inside your head
The lives we make never seem
To ever get us anywhere but dead

Soundgarden – The Day I Tried To Live

Do you ever get the feeling that your thoughts are grand and composed in your head, but when you try to express them it all falls to pieces?

I get this a lot.

Perhaps there is nothing but a pile of broken pieces to start. I’m not sure.

It’s been a little while since I’ve posted random song lyrics. If you haven’t heard of this song Sowing Season by Brand New I recommend that you do.

Was losing all my friends
Was losing them to drinking and to driving
Was losing all my friends and I got them back

I am on the mend
At least now I can say that I am trying
And I hope you will forget the things I still lack

Yeah
Yeah

Is it in you now?
To bare to hear the truths that you were spoken
Twisted up by knaves
In a trap for fools

Is it in you now?
To watch the things you gave your life to broken
You stoop and build them up with worn out tools

Yeah

Nothing gets so bad
A whisper from your father couldn’t fix it
Your whispers like a bridge, he’s a river span

Take all that you have
and turn it into something you were missing
Somebody threw that brick
And shattered all your plans

Yeah

Time to get the seeds and put them in the cold ground
It takes a while to grow anything
Before its coming to the end yeah

Before you put my body in the cold ground, take some time to warm it with your hands
Before it’s coming to an end, yeah

It’s coming to an end

Do you miss the blend
Of colors she left in your black and white field
Do you feel condemned just being there?

I am not your friend
I am just a man who knows how it feels

I am not your friend
I am not your lover
I am not your family

Yeah

Time to get the seeds and put them in the cold ground
It takes a while to grow anything
Before it’s coming to the end yeah
