the world is not enough by garbage

I know how to hurt
I know how to heal
I know what to show
And what to conceal
I know when to talk
And I know when to touch
No one ever died from wanting too much

The world is not enough
But it is such a perfect place to start, my love
And if you're strong enough
Together we can take the world apart, my love

People like us
Know how to survive
There's no point in living
If you can't feel alive
We know when to kiss
And we know when to kill
If we can't have it all
Then nobody will

The world is not enough
But it is such a perfect place to start, my love
And if you're strong enough
Together we can take the world apart, my love

I feel safe
I feel scared
I feel ready
And yet unprepared
The world is not enough
But it is such a perfect place to start, my love
And if you're strong enough
Together we can take the world apart, my love

The world is not enough
The world is not enough
No Nowhere near enough,
The world is not enough



notus: oh, when will i ever be satisfied? never. people like ethan are not toys. i want him so badly but i know i have to stop myself from ruining him. he deserves the best. argh!

Cool by Gwen Stefani

It's hard to remember how it felt before
Now I found the love of my life...
Passes things get more comfortable
Everything is going right

And after all the obstacles
It's good to see you now with someone else
And it's such a miracle that you and me are still good
friends
After all that we've been through
I know we're cool

We used to think it was impossible
Now you call me by my new last name
Memories seem like so long ago
Time always kills the pain

Remember Harbor Boulevard
The dreaming days where the mess was made
Look how all the kids have grown
We have changed but we're still the same
After all that we've been through
I know we're cool

And I'll be happy for you
If you can be happy for me
Circles and triangles, and now we're hangin' out with your new
girlfriend
So far from where we've been
I know we're cool


notus: for ed... who else?!

Lemon Tree by Fool's Garden

I'm sitting here in a boring room it's just another rainy
Sunday afternoon I'm wasting my time I got nothing to do
I'm hanging around I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever happens- and I wonder

I'm driving around in my car I'm driving too fast
I'm driving too far I'd like to change my point of view
I feel so lonely I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever happens- and I wonder

I wonder how I wonder why yesterday you told me
'bout the blue blue sky and all tall that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree
I'm turning my head up and down
I'm turning turning turning turning turning around
And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree

I'm sitting here I miss the power I'd like to go out
taking a shower but there's a heavy cloud in side my head
I feel so tired put myself into bed where nothing
ever happens- and I wonder

Isolation - is not good for me
Insolation - I don't want to sit on a lemon-tree
I'm steppin' around in a desert of joy Baby anyhow I'll get another toy and every thing will happen-and you'll wonder

I wonder how I wonder..



notus: this is a really fun song. pretty much like me when i am uber bored --- i wonder.

Secretly by Skunk Anansie

I've been biding my time
Been so subtly kind
I got to think so selfishly
'Cos you're the face inside of me

I've been biding my days
You see evidently it pays
I've been a friend
With unbiased views
Then secretly lust after you

So now he's gone rusty
You're bored and bemused
You wanna do someone else
So you should be by yourself
Instead of here with me
Secretly

Trying hard to think pure
Bloody hard when I'm raw
You talking out so sexually
'bout boys 'n girls and your friggin' dreams
So now you feel lusty
You're hot and confused
So now you've been busted
You're caught feeling used

You had to do someone else
You should've been by yourself
Instead of here with me
Secretly
Secretly



notus: i've been a friend with unbiased views then secretly lust after you...

athena by marry me jane

Nothin' really makes sense
the azure in the sky
never had it on my wish list
It caught me by surprise
All we needed was a river to follow
and fall in

Lay down Athena
in your sea of wine
Lay down Athena
lay down tonight
and fall

Looking through the wrong lens
with shadows in my eyes
You were hiding in the open
standing by my side
All we needed was a river to follow
and dance in

Lay down Athena
in your sea of wine
Lay down Athena
lay down lay down

Crimson river we follow
(we collide, we collide)
We'll be safe in tomorrow
(we glide, we rise, we rise)

Lay down Athena
in your sea of wine
Lay down Athena
Lay down tonight and fall



notus: this is for raeny fairy who'll be off to piyayaland. may she find what she's looking for.

drive-by kiss by the dambuilders

i still see the two of us together
when the winter wind blows cold
you can't get lost as long as you remember
if you know where the highway goes

i may never find out where it is
but i might reach you with a drive-by kiss

and its wrong to think about forever
when you know it doesn't last
but if you try to run away from your memory
you can't ever drive too fast

you may never find out who it is
but i might reach you with a drive-by kiss

and it's a sad way
to say hello
but if you sleep it off,
will you let me know?

say good-bye
but don't let me go

i may never find out where it is
but i might reach you with a drive-by kiss
say good-bye to part of me i miss
with a drive-by kiss

i didn't know it would come to this
i hope i can say what i never did
with a drive-by kiss



notus: this is for ed. this is for the times i can no longer spend with him... for the thoughts left unsaid... for things left undone. he may be off with someone else but i hope he remembers me. yes, it went pretty fast. i can just seal everything with a drive-by kiss.

waiting in vain by bob marley

1, 2, 3:

I don’t wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don’t wanna wait in vain for your love.
From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl,
My heart says follow t’rough.
But I know, now, that I’m way down on your line,
But the waitin’ feel is fine:
So don’t treat me like a puppet on a string,
’cause I know I have to do my thing.
Don’t talk to me as if you think I’m dumb;
I wanna know when you’re gonna come - soon.
I don’t wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don’t wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don’t wanna wait in vain for your love,
’cause if summer is here,
I’m still waiting there;
Winter is here,
And I’m still waiting there.
---
/guitar solo/
---
Like I said:
It’s been three years since I’m knockin’ on your door,
And I still can knock some more:
Ooh girl, ooh girl, is it feasible?
I wanna know now, for I to knock some more.
Ya see, in life I know there’s lots of grief,
But your love is my relief:
Tears in my eyes burn - tears in my eyes burn
While I’m waiting - while I’m waiting for my turn,
See!

I don’t wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don’t wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don’t wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don’t wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don’t wanna wait in vain for your love, oh!
I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna -
I don’t wanna wait in vain.
I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna -
I don’t wanna wait in vain.
No, I don’t wanna (I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna -
I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna wait in vain) -
No I - no I (I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna - I don’t
Wanna - I don’t wanna wait in vain) -
No, no-no, i, no, I (I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna -
I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna wait in vain) -
It’s your love that I’m waiting on (I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna -
I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna wait in vain);
It’s me love that you’re running from.
It’s jah love that I’m waiting on (I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna -
I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna - I don’t wanna wait in vain);
It’s me love that you’re running from.

you and me by lifehouse

what day is it
and in what month
this clock never seemed so alive
I can't keep up
and I can't back down
I've been losing so much time

cause it's you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to lose
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

all of the things that I want to say
just aren't coming out right
I'm tripping inwards
you got my head spinning
I don't know where to go from here

cause it's you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to prove
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

there's something about you now
I can't quite figure out
everything she does is beautiful
everything she does is right

you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to lose
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to prove
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

what day is it
and in what month
this clock never seemed so alive



notus: this, while reading Lullaby by Chuck Palahniuk... odd, is it?

White Shadows by Coldplay (Morgan Page Remix)

When I was a young boy I tried to listen
And I wanna feel like that
Little white shadows that sparkle and glisten
I'm part of a system plan
Do you ever feel like there's something missing?
Things you'll never understand
Little white shadows that blink in the distance
Part of a system plan

When all our fears are waking up
All the space they're taking up
I said I cannot hear you, you're breaking up

Ohhhh...

Maybe you get what you wanted
Maybe you stumbled upon it
Everything you ever wanted
In a permanent state

Maybe you'll know when you see it
Maybe if you say it, you mean it
When you find that you keep it
In a permanent state
A permanent state

When I was a young boy
I tried to listen
I don't think I'll ever feel like that

We're part of the human race and
All of the stars and outer space
We're part of the system plan

When all our fears are waking up
And all the space, they're taking up
I said I cannot hear you, you're breaking up

Maybe you get what you wanted
Maybe you'll stumble upon it
Everything you ever wanted
In a permanent state

Maybe you'll know when you see it
Maybe if you say it, you'll mean it
When you find that you keep it
In a permanent state
A permanent state

I swear I'm only seeing faces
Tired of the human races
Oh, answer now is what I need...

See it in a new sun rising
See it breaking on your horizon
Oh, come on love, stay with me...



notus: this is for kenny... for bringing back to me my love for music.

Snow on The Sahara by Anggun

Only tell me that you still want me here
When you wander off out there
To those hills of dust and hard winds that blow
In that dry white ocean alone
Lost out in the desert
You are lost out in the desert

But to stand with you in a ring of fire
I’ll forget the days gone by
I’ll protect your body and guard your soul
From mirages in your sight

Lost out in the desert
You are lost out in the desert

If your hopes scatter like the dust across your track
I’ll be the moon that shines on your path
The sun may blind our eyes, I’ll pray the skies above
For snow to fall on the sahara

Just a wish and I will cover your shoulders
With veils of silk and gold
When the shadows come and darken your heart
Leaving you with regrets so cold

Lost out in the desert
You are lost out in the desert

If your hopes scatter like the dust across your track
I’ll be the moon that shines on your path
The sun may blind our eyes, I’ll pray the skies above
For snow to fall on the sahara

If that’s the only place where you can leave your doubts
I’ll hold you up and be your way out
And if we burn away, I’ll pray the skies above
For snow to fall on the sahara

Just a wish and it will cover your shoulders
With veils of silk and gold
When the darkness comes and darkened your heart
Leaving you with regrets so cold

Lost out in the desert


notus: i am not sure to whom this song goes out to. whenever i hear this song, it is kalinaw i think of... i can't seem to get him out of my thoughts. odd.

Days Go By by Dirty Vegas

You
You

You are still a whisper on my lips
A feeling at my fingertips
That's pulling at my skin

You leave me when I'm at my worst
Feeling as if I've been cursed
Bitter cold within

Days go by and still I think of you
Days when I couldn't live my life without you
Days go by and still I think of you
Days when I couldn't live my life without you
Without you
Without you

You are still a whisper on my lips
A feeling at my fingertips
That's pulling at my skin

You leave me when I'm at my worst
Feeling as if I've been cursed
Bitter cold within

Days go by and still I think of you
Days when I couldn't live my life without you
Without you
Without you

Days go by and still I think of you
Days when I couldn't live my life without you
Days go by and still I think of you
Days when I couldn't live my life without you
Without you
Without you
Without you
Without you
Without you



notus: to whom do you pledge your allegiance? you, self, yes, you. would you betray yourself at that delusional moment?

Island in the Sun by Weezer

Hip hip
Hip hip
Hip hip
Hip hip

When you’re on a holiday
You can’t find the words to say
All the things that come to you
And I wanna feel it too

On an island in the sun
We’ll be playing and having fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can’t control my brain

Hip hip
Hip hip

When you’re on a golden sea
You don’t need no memory
Just a place to call your own
As we drift into the zone

On an island in the sun
We’ll be playing and having fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can’t control my brain

We’ll run away together
We’ll spend some time forever
We’ll never feel bad anymore

Hip hip
Hip hip
Hip hip

On an island in the sun
We’ll be playing and having fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can’t control my brain

We’ll run away together
We’ll spend some time forever
We’ll never feel bad anymore

Hip hip

We’ll never feel bad anymore
No no
We’ll never feel bad anymore
No no
No no
No no



notus: because i can't come home for the holidays, lemme just imagine the warm weather, the sea, sun, sand of davao.... hip hip!

Waves by Marjorie Fair

Feels as if the things I thought about
Silly boy, you're off to what I thought about
In a way, the sun is setting on my side
But it's alright unless it's gone
Away from here for good

[BRIDGE]
But it's so hard, watching you fade away
And it's too hard, watching you fade away

[CHORUS]
These are the ways that I talked about, silly boy
Don't you forget about what I have said
These are the ways that I talked about, silly boy
Don't you forget about what I have said
It's all in your head

The person that I thought I was
Is something that I don't think is coming true
And to say things that surround me now
Are the same things that I seem to see right through



notus: who is this lady i knew, i know and i'll know someday? i know i am daddy's frustration... i have been following all his orders, grooming me. i could have been an exact replica of him... only somewhere, somehow, i took a different path. now, "the person that i thought i was is something that i don't think is coming true and to say things that surround me now are the same things that i seem to see right through"

all the young dudes by world party

Well Billy rapped all night about his suicide
How he kick it in the head when he was twenty-five
Speed jive don't want to stay alive
When you're twenty-five
And Wendy's stealing clothes from Marks and Sparks
And Freedy's got spots from ripping off the stars from his face
Funky little boat race
Television man is crazy saying we're juvenile deliquent wrecks
Oh man I need TV when I got T Rex
Oh brother you guessed
I'm a dude dad
All the young dudes (Hey dudes)
Carry the news (Where are ya)
Boogaloo dudes (Stand up Come on)
Carry the news
All the young dudes (I want to hear you)
Carry the news (I want to see you)
Boogaloo dudes (And I want to talk to you all of you)
Carry the news

Now Lucy looks sweet cause he dresses like a queen
But he can kick like a mule it's a real mean team
But we can love oh yes we can love
And my brother's back at home with his Beatles and his Stones
We never got it off on that revolution stuff
What a drag too many snags
Now I've drunk a lot of wine and I'm feeling fine
Got to race some cat to bed
Oh is there concrete all around
Or is it in my head
Yeah
I'm a dude dad
All the young dudes (Hey dudes)
Carry the news (Where are ya)
Boogaloo dudes (Stand up)
Carry the news
All the young dudes (I want to hear ya)

Wake Me Up When September Ends by Green Day

Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends

like my fathers come to pass
seven years has gone so fast
wake me up when september ends

here comes the rain again
falling from the stars
drenched in my pain again
becoming who we are

as my memory rests
but never forgets what I lost
wake me up when september ends

summer has come and passed
the innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends

ring out the bells again
like we did when spring began
wake me up when september ends

here comes the rain again
falling from the stars
drenched in my pain again
becoming who we are

as my memory rests
but never forgets what I lost
wake me up when september ends

Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends

like my father's come to pass
twenty years has gone so fast
wake me up when september ends
wake me up when september ends
wake me up when september ends



notus: waiting room turned comfort room. wake me up when september ends...

No Woman No Cry by Bob Marley

No woman no cry, no woman no cry
No woman no cry, no woman no cry
Say, say, say I remember when we used to sit
In a government yard in Trenchtown
Obba, obba, observing the hypocrites
As we would mingle
With the good people we meet
Good friends we have,
Oh, good friends we've lost
Along the way
In this great future,
You can't forget your past
So dry your tears, I say

No woman no cry, no woman no cry
Little darling, don't shed no tears,
No woman no cry
Say I remember when we use to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Gorgie would make the fire lights
As it was, log would burnin'
Through the nights
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
So I've got to push on thru
Oh, while I'm gone

Everything 's gonna be alright,
Everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright,
Everything 's gonna be alright
No woman no cry,
No, no woman no cry
Oh, my little sister
Don't shed no tears
No woman no cry


notus: karen, this is for you on your 23rd year.

Ever After by Bonnie Bailey with Hed Kandi

Three years ago, our journey began.
Chasing down this cure, no plan in hand.
Just your pulse, my racing guide in the dark.
Just knowing with conviction from the start.

The moment your eyes made an introduction,
I felt my second violent breath of life.
Flawless to the point of being godly,
Yet I fell hard for your imperfections.

And now we're slightly weathered, we're slightly worn.
Our hands grip together, eye to eye through the storm, yet
I still believe in ever after with you, yeahhhhh.
Cuz life is a pleasure with you by my side,
And there ain't no current in this river we can't ride.
I still believe in ever after with you.

Nothing compares to the good times.
Feels like we're floating, when the rest have to climb.
You made me believe in love, and not the perfect kind.
A real messy beautiful twisted sunshine.

Emotions, volcanic eruptions,
We both still care, so we're still alive.
Tunnel vision, determination,
I want you, I want to make it right.

And now we're slightly weathered, we're slightly worn.
Our hands grip together, eye to eye through the storm, yet
I still believe in ever after with you, yeahhhhh.
Cuz life is a pleasure with you by my side,
And there ain't no current in this river we can't ride.
I still believe in ever after with you.

You are my twisted sunshine.
You are my twisted sunshine.

And now we're slightly weathered, we're slightly worn.
Our hands grip together, eye to eye through the storm, yet
I still believe in ever after with you, yeahhhhh.
Cuz life is a pleasure with you by my side,
And there ain't no current in this river we can't ride.
I still believe in ever after with you.

And now we're slightly weathered, we're slightly worn.
Our hands grip together, eye to eye through the storm, yet
I still believe in ever after with you, yeahhhhh.
Cuz life is a pleasure with you by my side,
And there ain't no current in this river we can't ride.
I still believe in ever after with you.


notus: oh. my. god. this is for allin. for most part, the song tells so much about how it is with him except the mushy party bcuz we never really had any of those... but... oh, how i wish. i still believe in ever after with you...

Hurt by Nine Inch Nails

I hurt myself today.
to see if I still feel.
I focus on the pain.
the only thing that's real.
the needle tears a hole.
the old familiar sting.
try to kill it all away.
but I remember everything.
what have I become?.
my sweetest friend.
everyone I know.
goes away in the end.
you could have it all.
my empire of dirt.
I will let you down.
I will make you hurt.
I wear my crown of shit.
on my liar's chair.
full of broken thoughts.
I cannot repair.
beneath the stain of time.
the feeling disappears.
you are someone else.
I am still right here.
what have I become?.
my sweetest friend.
everyone I know.
goes away in the end.
you could have it all.
my empire or dirt.
I will let you down.
I will make you hurt.
if I could start again.
a million miles away.
I would keep myself.
I would find a way.



notus: i wonder if this songs holds true for krystel and i... just a passing thought.

Runaway Train by Soul Asylum

Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a slow torch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning

So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep

It seems no one can help me now
I'm in too deep
There's no way out
This time I have really led myself astray

CHORUS
Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here no there

Can you help me remember how to smile
Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
How on earth did I get so jaded
Life's mystery seems so faded

I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else knows
Here I am just drownin' in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway train

Everything is cut and dry
Day and night, earth and sky
Somehow I just don't believe it

CHORUS

Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughin' at the rain
Little out of touch, little insane
Just easier than dealing with the pain

Runaway train never comin' back
Runaway train tearin' up the track
Runaway train burnin' in my veins
Runaway but it always seems the same



notus: this song truly reminds me of that night Nap called up and roused me from my sleep. that night i decided to get rid of him... and get rid of him fast.
