Sing for me, key - your dearest aunt.

Look at me, and listen close
So I can tell you how I feel before I go
Just a year, it's not much time
For me to show you
I am proud that you are mine
I wish I had known
The future in my heart was just about to start


Say tomorrow, I can't follow you there
Just close your eyes and sing for me
I will hear you, Always near you
And I'll give you the words
Just sing for me


Every lock, on every door
I put them there
To try and hide you from the world
And you kicked, yeah you screamed
You never understood you're everything to me
I just hope you know
The future in your heart is just about to start


Say tomorrow, I can't follow you there
Just close your eyes and sing for me
I will hear you, Always near you
I'll give you the words
Just sing for me


No looking back when I am gone
Follow your heart its never wrong
No looking back when I am gone
Don't second guess the note you're on


Out of time, all out of fight
You are the only thing in life that I got right


Say tomorrow, I can't follow you there
Just close your eyes and sing for me
I will hear you, Always near you
I'll give you the words
Just sing for me

Just close your eyes
And sing for me
Just close your eyes
And sing for me

This was something I just had to do, even being at work now and just logging onto Blogger should be illegal. (alright fine i'm slacking :P)

Why this song?

The song is written from the perspective of Key's terminally ill aunt, Aunt Stephanie, who was mentioned in "Rock Star Land", another song of Yellowcard's. (source : Alternative Press)

Unfortunately that was all I got from online sources, I'd probably have to buy the magazine to get the full story.

One reason why I have Yellowcard in my favourites is because they write songs with meaning, be it for someone or because of someone. This is what makes their songs just beautiful in design, these songs that touch the heart and soul.

p.s. Oh and when I get a pet someday I'll name it Theo :3 (got that name from a typo when trying to type out thetophertimes, it came out as theophertimes lol)

Illusions

I've probably been hoping for too much. So yeah, have to remind myself to forget about it, get on without it playing on my mind, after all its not gonna happen anyway. Give me a miracle then I'd reconsider :/

Will probably have some farewell party soon, not sure who i'm going to invite. Tried coming up with a list, ended up being barely 10 people. Just shows how little people I know nowadays, barely a handful. Well, 2 hands. Not even sure of its purpose, i'm not really a fan of celebrations/farewells, or plainly being the center of things. Almost a decade of my life I've lived without a single celebration involving myself. Gotten really used to it, good at it.

Gotta go. Till then.

Just got back from swimming, I officially declare that it really calms my mind, at least I like to think so. Going to try swimming at least twice a week from now, gradually increasing the frequency.

Love playing music too, but its been pretty boring lately, I want to play what they(Trace Bundy, Ben Konstantinovic) play (they're friggin' awesome!! O_O). But I just am not that good I suppose.
