while listening to FOB, on this very rainy night, i was reminded of my YM picture back in 2010 (i checked my YM message archive to verify the time i used this YM picture since someone made a comment about it). i havent used YM for quite some time now and after going online for just a few seconds, seeing a few friends online, im still not in the mood to use it. maybe by the end of the year. i dunnow
anyway, i ended up listening to two FOB albums. i really like the way they give titles to their songs. reminds me of how i used to think of my email subjects. and to a certain extent, blog titles.
i wish its september 24 already. i want to watch a TV series.
a just read a tweet that said "happy people listen to music while sad people listen to the lyrics". i was listening to the music then i took notice of the lyrics. i guess that's when the YM picture entered the...picture.

"Oh baby, you're a classic like a little black dress. You're a faded moon stuck on a little hot mess"
"I don't just want to be a footnote in someone else's happiness."
"I wanna scream, "I love you," from the top of my lungs but I'm afraid that someone else will hear me."
"So boycott love. Detox just to retox. And I'd promise you anything for another shot at life"
"We had a good run; even I have to admit. Life's just a pace-call on death. Only less diligent. Hell or Glory, I don't want anything in between"
"Blame everyone but me for this mess and my back has been breaking from this heavy heart. We never seemed so far. I'm hopelessly hopeful, that you're just hopeless enough. But we never had it at all"

"It's just past eight, and I'm feeling young and reckless."
"You're just the girl all the boys want to dance with and I'm just the boy who's had too many chances
I don't blame you for being you but you can't blame me for hating it. So say, what are you waiting for? Kiss her, kiss her I set my clocks early 'cause I know I'm always late. Write me off, give up on me, cause darling, what did you expect. I'm just off a lost cause, a long shot, don't even take this bet"
"Oh baby, when they made me, they broke the mold. Girls used to follow me around, then I got cold"
"You only hold me up like this. Cause you don't know who I really am. I used to waste my time dreaming of being alive. Now I only waste it dreaming of you"
"What makes you so special? I'm gonna leave you, I'm gonna teach you. How we're all alone"
"Am I more than you bargained for yet? I've been dyin' to tell you anything you want to hear 'Cause that's just who I am this week"
"Cause I'll keep singing this lie if you'll keep believing it"
"I must confess, I'm in love with my own sins."
"I keep my jealousy close, 'cause it's all mine. and if you say this makes you happy, then I'm not the only one lying."
"Keep quiet,nothing comes as easy as you. Can I lay in your bed all day? I'll be your best kept secret and your biggest mistake."
"I keep telling myself I'm not the desperate type but you've got me looking in through blinds"
"I found the cure to growing older and you're the only place that feels like home. Just so you know, you'll never know and some secrets weren't meant to be told."
"I don't care what you think as long as it's about me. The best of us can find happiness in misery."
