It's Friday, yet again! This week FLEW by...Time for an uplifting song so get me through the work day :) Hope you're all putting your nose to the grindstone as we wind down these last few weeks of school. I miss my Bridgewater friends and I can't wait to see you guys. You know who you are. The world isn't ready for us, but we'll take it by storm anyway :)

Rent - Another Day

Who do you think you are?
Barging in on me and my guitar
Little girl, hey, the door is that way
You better go you know
the fire's out anyway
Take your powder
Take your candle
Your sweet whisper
I just can't handle
Well take your hair in the Moonlight
Your brown eyes - Goodbye, Goodnight

I should tell you I should tell you
I should tell you I should --No!

Another time, another place
Our temperature would climb
There'd be a long embrace
We'd do another dance
It'd be another play
Looking for romance
Come back another day
Another day

The heart may Freeze - Or it can Burn
The pain will ease - If I can learn


There is no Future
There is no Past
I live this moment as my last

There's only Us
There's only This
Forgret regret
Or Life is yours to miss
No other Road
No other Way
No Day But Today

Excuse me if I'm off track
But if you're so wise
Then tell me - why do you need smack?

Take your needle
Take your fancy prayer
Don't forget get the Moonlight out of your hair

Long ago you might've lit up my heart
But the fire's dead
and ain't never ever gonna start

Another time

Another place
The words would only rhyme
We'd be in outer space
It'd be another song
We'd sing another way
You wanna prove me wrong
Come back Another Day
Another day!

There's only Yes
Only Tonight
We must let go
To know what's right

No other Course
No other Way
No Day But Today

I can't control (Control your temper!)
My Destiny (She doesn't see...)
I trust my Soul (Who says that there's a soul?)
My only goal
Is just - to Be (Just let me be!)

There's only now (Who do you think you are?)
There's only here
Give in to love (Barging in on me and my guitar?)
Or live in Fear

No other Path (Little girl, hey)
No other Way (The door is that way)

No Day But Today (The Fire's out anyway)
No Day But Today (Take your powder, take your candle!)
No Day But Today (Take your brown eyes, your pretty smile, your silhouette)
No Day But Today (Another Time, Another Place, Another Rhyme, a Warm Embrace)
No Day But Today (Another Dance, Another Way, Another Chance)
No Day But Today (Another Day)

You've been lying in bed for a week now
Wondering how long it'll take
You haven't spoken or looked at her in all that time
For that was the easiest line you could break

She's been going round her business as usual
Always with that melancholic smile
But you were too busy looking into your affairs
To see those tiny tears in her eyes

Tiny tears make up an ocean
Tiny tears make up a sea
Let them pour out, pour out all over
Don't let them pour all over me

How can you hurt someone so much you're supposed to care for
Someone you said you'd always be there for
But when that water breaks you know you're gonna cry, cry
When those tears start rolling you'll be back

Tiny tears make up an ocean
Tiny tears make up a sea
Let them pour out, pour out all over
Don't let them pour all over me

You've been thinking about the time, you've been dreading it
But now it seems that moment has arrived
She's at the edge of the bed, she gets in
But it's hard to turn the opposite way tonight

Tiny tears make up an ocean
Tiny tears make up a sea
Let them pour out, pour out all over
Don't let them pour all over me


The Tindersticks - Tiny Tears

I first heard this song in The Sopranos Season 1 maybe 5 or 6 years ago now. One of my most favorite episodes ever too. They use it when the attempted hit is made on Tony. I don't know why but I find the episode and that part particularly so moving. I see myself in Tony sometimes and vice versa. Maybe because I'm Italian. Maybe because I'm from NJ. Maybe because there's some things in him that are common to us all. I should make a list sometime of movies/shows scenes that movie me like this. Oh well back to work :D

Well it's snowing in Syracuse again. It's going to snow all week. And my professors think it's a fun idea to push all of the work up in the syllabi. It's going to be a tough month, but it's going down baby. Oh yes it is. Time to get some sleep, tommorrow is a long long day!
Well I'm back in 'Cuse. I don't know if I'm happy or not to be. The landscape is dismal. The buildings look sad to me. I'm not motivated whatsoever, and the sun is nowhere to be seen. It's the perfect time of year, somewhere far away from here. Sometimes the last thing you need is the first you get, and the first thing the last. Love...I get so lost sometimes.


When the day is long
And the night, the night is yours alone
When you're sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on
Don't let yourself go
'Cause everybody cries
And everybody hurts, sometimes
Sometimes everything is wrong

When your day is night alone, (hold on, hold on)
If you feel like letting go, (hold on)
When you think you've had too much of this life, well hang on.

'Cause everybody hurts. Take comfort in your friends.
Everybody hurts.
Don't throw your hand. Oh, no. Don't throw your hand.
If you feel like you're alone, no, no, no, you are not alone

If you're on your own in this life, the days and nights are long,
when you think you've had too much of this life to hang on.

Well, everybody hurts sometimes,
Everybody cries. And everybody hurts sometimes.
And everybody hurts sometimes. So, hold on, hold on.
Hold on...

Well I leave to go back to school this morning... Why is the worst part of spring break always going back to school? Sometimes I wish I could take everything bad for everyone I know, and right it all in one effort. I wish that things would happen for people who truly deserve it. I wish I could do that, but most times it's not upto me.


So it ended up being a great break. I'm sad to go back like after every break there's a bit of my heart tugging in the opposite direction. I'll miss my parents, the new dog, sleeping in, no stress, and seeing the sun every day.

But what I'll miss the most is somone here in Florida. You know who you are. Thanks for being a bright light when all others seemed to have dimmed. We'll meet up again in the future. It's not a matter of if...Only when.


::sigh::

Cold and frosty morning there's not a lot to say
About the things caught in my mind
And as the day was dawning my plane flew away
With all the things caught in my mind
And I wanna be there when you're...
Coming down
And I wanna be there when you hit the ground
So don't go away, say what you say
But say that you'll stay
Forever and a day...in the time of my life
Cos I need more time, yes I need more time
Just to make things right
