From Snow Patrol's Final Straw Album. It's from the song run which is really AWESOME.
I'll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
You've been the only thing that's right
In all I've done
And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we'll make it anywhere
Anyway from here
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
Louder louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say
To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbyes
I nearly do
Light up..
Slower slower
We don't have time for that
I just want to find an easier way
To get out of our little heads
Have heart my dear
We're bound to be afraid
Even if it's just for a few days
Making up for all this mess
Wat A cool song. I would insert it in hear for U guys to hear if I knew how to insert
People now a days can't really light up can they? I mean why are U so serious about things. Sometimes even if U tell them the Funniest Jokes in the whole wide world, they will stare at U as if U were some kind of alien and then start scrutinizing the joke. *SPoiling the fun*
Sometimes U can't really change fate. I mean people kinda take things so seriously. There is "Always Look on The Brightside of Life" by Monty Python which can cheer up anyone. Beautiful song. People shouldn't take things forgranted I mean things won't always be there when U want it to. U should embrace things, appreaciate them.
I mean U may have one thing today but U may lose it 2morrow. Let me just tell a little short story *I hope*
Let's see, this is purely fictional.
Ok, Thomas came from a middle class family. Loving parents though he lost his grandparents when he was really young. Only child in the family. Has a snobbish and self sbsorbed uncle who's married to a stuck up, stubborn, bitchy woman. Anyway Thomas is the type of guy that can't wait to get his driving license. As soon as he got it he asked his parents whether he could take it for a spin. Well the parents said no. and gave him a probation. Thomas obviously wasn't happy bout it but well one day his parents went out. And this was the perfect chance for Thomas to drive the car. A few minutes after his parents left, Thomas drove the car out. He knew his parents would be back quite late. So he went to a party, got quite drunk and as he was drivin home. He lost control of the car. The car spun and hit several cars then slammed into the back of a chevy which was following a huge lorry. The chevy was slammed into the lorry, the impact of the Thomas's car pushed the chevy under the lorry. Thomas passed out and the people in the chevy died on the spot.
Now so far the moral of the story is "do not sneak out at nite" or "do not get ur driving license" or "don't attend a party". But the story hasn't ended.
A couple of mornings later, Thomas woke up in a hospital and was told that his parents were involved in an accident a couple days before by his aunt. He demand to see them. The aunt brought him to their grave and told him wat happen. The people in the chevy which was hit that nite was none other than his parents.
So well people don't take things for granted.
Well there is this other verse from Snow Patrol as well about responsibility.
It's a simple suggestion can you give me sometime
So just say yes or no
why can't you shoulder the blame
Coz both my shoulders are heavy
from the weight of us both
It's from the first song of the album. How to Be dead
Chocolate talks bout wat mistakes can do.
Basically the Album is a bomb. Poeple out there just LIGHT UP before I get Pissed off. People like the person in the pissed off entry should really light up.
ANyway I'm not trying to promote Snow Patrol's Final Straw CD which is currently in stores nationwide at I don't know wat price but instead people just light up. Appreaciate what U have. Hey since I already talked bout the Snow Patrol CD, U should really try it out. I mean it is cool. Plus if U don't like it I don't mind another copy. Though I'm kinda sad one of the members parted ways with em. Still they even have a quote inside the album that said "Mums and Dads of the World be Patient with your Children". Imean what sort of band puts that in their album anyway.
So Guys LIGHT UP ok?
