  • Run Run Away, Don't Let Him Mess With Your Mind by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-11-17 16:26:20
    Today wasn't too bad.

    I wasn't too happy about lunch though.
    We ditched this weird girl that sits with us.
    And I looked over and she looked sad and lonely... I felt bad.

    After school, this girl asked me about my English class, last quarter... because apparently my teacher brought my name up.
    Something about me being good at figuring out what words meant.
    ----
    Then I was unlocking my car to go home, and this kid (Who I'm pretty sure has been in my class before) said Hey.. so I gave a head nod.. and hes like "Would you mind giving me a ride, I only live right over there"
    Alright.

    So he gets in the car, and he's like "I'm Ace" I believe he said.
    ((That wasn't his name in the class, maybe its a nickname)
    But he as wearing an army uniform.

    And he heard I had country on the radio... I Was about to say "If you want to mess with the radio, you can"
    But he said
    "Your listening to Country?? Turn that Up!"
    "You like country?"
    "Yeahh"
    Then he told me about how he's been to concerts.

    I drop him off, and turns out he lives Right next door to my friends sister.
    -But he gave me like 3 handshakes.
    And I'm guessing I'll be giving him a few more rides in the future.

    --Note, though. If it IS the same guy that I have had in class, then he has changed a Lot.

    ------
    Also, sometimes I hate having my mom in facebook. She sees Everything of mine before I get to..
    so when I'm tagged or messaged.. she usually sees it first.. and it's annoying.. Its My stuff.

    Yeah.
    I guess that's my day.
    so
    Au Revoir.
    • Ugh. by ringsinmypocket at 2009-11-20 21:24:11
      my mom has facebook too.
      But seriously????
      Farmville???
      Come on, thats so lame.
      Ninja Warz FTW!!!!
    • haha by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-11-17 20:16:46
      Farmville. My mom is my neighbor on farmville. I just dont like the noseyness.
    • oh dear.. by thinkpeace at 2009-11-17 17:17:51
      ...the thought of having my mum on facebook makes me want to cry! but i guess it would be an extra neighbour on farmville =P
  • Yeah, This Is As Good As It Gets by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-11-15 01:56:33
    Today was a really fun day.

    But basically everything I would say about today will just be a repeat of previous journals.

    But some isn't .. like this.
    We went to a park, that I have never been to before.
    When we were driving up to it.. I realised.. OMG I Dreamed About this Park!!! It looked pretty much Exactly the same.. all the hills were deffinately the same...

    And I was like WOAH My God. It was creepy. I dreamt about a park that I've never been to!.
    It's a really fun park though!
    -------
    And It is still frustrating me with that girl I like...
    I can't hang out with her without thinking about how I like her.
    It's frustratingly frustrating!!
    Frowny Face.
    -------

    Hmm.. that's all I can think of.

    So, yeah..

    Au Revoir.

  • Didn't you that I was always there beside you? by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-11-12 19:18:28
    In addition to the last post. because I forgot about it.

    I, again, feel like moving.

    To start fresh. Rid myself of my passed mistakes and be reborn into a new world (town).

    Because, I feel that I'm not an odd person where people wouldn't want to talk to me. I can feel that there are more popular people that don't find me an untouchable.. but the fact that I grew up with that tag makes me feel that I'm not the full person I could be.
    And, maybe, if I moved, I'd be more of who I'm supposed to be in my social life.

    Because I'm not the nerdy, quiet kid who you don't really talk to.
    I'm quiet, yes... I'm not "cool" yes.. but I'm not like I used to be.

    I usually spend my summer vacation thinking "I've changed..." but then go back to school and realise I haven't changed.
    But this summer was different.

    I spent it thinking "I've changed" and I came back to school actually Feeling like I've changed.

    So yeah. I want to move.
    ----
    I'm starting to break away from my one group of friends more and more.
    I haven't talked to half of them since, like, Last year.. and the other two I still hang out with, but I find myself veiring (sp?) off of their group.
    But I have a whole other group of people that I like (as friends). They are the ones I sit with at lunch, and hang out with after school.
    And at lunch, there is this girl who sits there, and I'm probably going to start being her friend, because she talked to me today as if there wasn't any barrier between us. So that is good.
    She is also friends with 2. ... that is how I first "met" her.

    So I may have gotten the short end of the stick for my new English class... but it made up for it in my lunch group.

    But yeah, I felt like i had to say that.

    So.
    Au
    Revoir

  • I never really thought of you until I heard you sing the blues. by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-11-12 17:50:16
    Do you want to know a secret?
    I watched UP!
    And I cried... a lot.

    That was a really sad movie. I won't say anything about it because I don't want to give anything away, but It was really sad... and it kept bringing the sadness into the movie, and It made me really sad.

    Then it made me really want a hug.. But I really don't have anyone to give/receive hugs.
    But when we turned off the movie, The Office was on and Andy said "I need a hug... unless you're going to give me one"

    I thought that was odd.

    I went to bed, and my dog followed me upstairs.. so I turned around and pet her. Then she headed towards me door. I told her no, because my room is a mess... But I thought it was weird that she chose That night to want to sleep in my room.
    ---------

    I really need to get away from the world for a little bit.
    I'm sick of it at the moment.

    People are annoying me, and the world has just gotten too everyday for me. If you know what I mean?
    -----

    Today after school I started getting really paranoid.
    I got into my car, and I just felt off.
    And while driving, I felt like something was not right.
    Then I was waiting for a red light.. and I turned my head for like 2 seconds, and I hear a car honk... the light changed green... I hope he wasn't honking at me...
    But I go to turn, and I still have to wait anyways because I'm taking a left turn.. so now I REALLY hope he wasn't honking at me, that douche bag.

    Then I'm driving and I just feel wrong... And I'm having a minor freak out... minorly minor.
    I went to the Library... and I'm walking in the Isle, and images of horror movies popped in my head... because it felt very Horror Movie-esque.

    Yeah,

    I guess that is my day(s)?

    soo.
    Au Revoir.
    • Wts. by ringsinmypocket at 2009-11-16 16:01:33
      Damnit.
      I want to watch "up" sooo bad.
      >:[

      ((I wanted to get the right smiley face for wanting to watch the movie.
      First I tried: >:/ . But it looked to thoughtful, then I tried:
      >:], but it sounded like I was kidding around too much. So I went with the actual mad face.))

  • You Don't Know What It's Like To Be Nameless by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-11-09 21:00:11
    If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times...
    I want to be famous.

    I want to be in movies.
    I want to be on a fun TV Show.
    I want to host SNL.
    I want people to love me.
    Or even hate me.
    I want to be known.

    I don't want to live the life of some less than average 9to5 employee.
    I don't want to waste my life in boredom.
    I want to have fun
    I want to be part of things.
    I want to be recognized.

    It's hard to believe, but a handful of my friends do NOT want to be famous. They would rather keep their life.
    So Maybe it's not all that cliche that I want to be a celebrity.

    Yeah, I don't want people constantly giving me attention. I don't want tons of paparazi.
    But I do want to be famous.
    And crowds are something I could get used to, I guess.

    But it gets me upset when I think about it.. because it's just a stupid pipe dream.
    And I know I'm going to grow up to be a loser employee who has nothing out of life.

    My life is going nowhere fast.

    People think I'm funny.
    And the few people that have read my poems have said they liked them..
    So I can't say I have no chance in the industry.
    I could be an actor... with a little practice.. I don't think I'd do That bad.
    ------------

    I just want to experience the fame.
    Being on set and realising I'm not average.
    Realising that people love me. And that I am doing something worthwile. I want that excitement
    ------------

    Is it Too Much to Ask???
    lol.. it is... but I wish it wasn't.

    Yeah... post two for the day.
    My wish list.

    Au Revoir.
    • yea by Stroodle2134 at 2009-11-16 17:32:10
      no its not too muck to ask for.

      you know what? you and me both buddy. i dream of being famous, i wanna be known, and NOT be a slightly dorky/nerdy/ugly girl that some people (and sometimes myself) think of me.

      you and me keep dreamion and maybe someday, we will be famous and hear of one another.
  • Never Bite Off More Than You Can Chew....Trust me, I've tried. by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-11-09 17:04:25
    We got our new classes today.

    I don't have to go to school until 9:00 now. Instead of the normal 7:30.
    Second Hour stays the same.
    Third hour changes to English.
    Fourth hour stays.

    I don't like my new English class.

    It is FILLED with those popular jerks. I hate it.
    It'd be one thing if it were the popular nice people... There's people who are Popular, and you know they are, but they aren't jerks, and think they are all that... at least not in the sense that the jerks are.

    And it's basically All guys.

    There are only 2 people in it that I am friends with. 1 who I am aquainted with because of Math class. That's it.
    But this one kid looks like he might not be that popular and jerky... so I have hopes he won't be bad.
    ------------

    Sleeping in a bit longer is pretty nice, but I realised last night that I lost my mornings alone.
    I used to have a chance of having 30 minutes to myself in the morning, depending on if my dad worked or not.
    I'd use this time to relax, listen to music, watch youtube videos. Stuff I don't do when people are in the room, due to rudicity.

    But now I don't have that.. so now I only have Friday and Saturday nights if my parents go to bed before me.
    -------------------
    I do like my new lunch. It's the whole gang that I usually hang out with.
    Except every other day some of them switch off.
    So that's cool.
    ------

    Soo, I guess that is my day.

    So
    Au Revoir.
  • Even If The Sky Is Falling Down by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-11-07 01:37:47
    Tonight was a really fun night.

    I think we said "That's What She Said" about 100 times each.

    But the girl that I liked last year was there... and I know I've said this already, but I still like her.
    And I don't really realise it until we hang out like this, because we sit and watch movies, and talk and stuff, and I realise I like her.

    But it's too bad because she has a boyfriend.
    And it frustrates me..

    Gbfia, I'm frustrated.
    -------
    Other news.. today was the last day of the quarter.
    I get rid of two classes and start one new one.
    So I now don't have to go to school for first hour, and my 3rd hour is Literature. I feel I'm going to hate it.

    BUT . . I now have lunch with my friends that I hung out with today.. I think it's every single one of them, some every day.. some every other day.
    The one I've been liking is every other day.

    I guess that is my news.
    I'm really tired.

    Soo
    Au Revoir.
  • Je vous fais tout mes excuses. by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-11-04 22:01:47
    I didn't get to post this last night, so I'm shortening it (just because I don't want to give a whole story about a previous day) and posting it today.
    -----

    After school, I hung out with this kid in my class..
    Went to subway-had subway... later his mom brought us McDonalds, so I had a big fast food day.
    And I forgot that I know his mom. She was a teacher-helper in my freshman s.s. class, and apparently she still remembers me. I didn't think she would.

    We met at the library, and leaving the Library after I met him, I was pulling out of my parking space, and I swiped a car with the corner of my car.
    I hope there isn't a scratch.
    I remember pulling out thinking "EHHH That car is really close.... cshh (The noise of the touch)"
    OOPS. I looked and didn't really see anything.. so I kept driving.
    Although I think i did see a little bit of a paint alteration.
    Ikes. I'm not used to pulling out of parking spots.. I've only done it once before.. Every other time, I've always been able to get my car to face outward, because of an adjacent parking spot.

    Now I have to go do finals. Today I have English and Math.
    My two hardest finals.

    It's my last day of this english class, and I'm pretty sad about it, actually.

    Well, Wish me luck!

    Au Revoir.
  • Odd Girls Love Me by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-10-31 02:01:39
    This is inspired by the fact that all the socially awkward girls have a thing for me... and it's cuz I'm too nice.
    ---------
    Odd girls love me
    What can I say
    When they come up to me
    I don’t make ‘em go away
    I’m too polite
    When they tell me ‘bout their day
    Yeah, Odd girls love me
    But it’s the price that I pay

    They’re sitting there hiding behind chemistry books
    You see them reading
    I catch them giving me looks
    They come up to me, tell me about Boron
    I don’t know what that is, she must think I’m a moron
    But no
    She teaches me it’s atomic weight
    And the fact that I listen, she thinks she’s got a date

    At lunch, find ‘em all at the table furthest away
    It’s right by the bathroom, so I give them spray
    They take it too far
    Think I’m showing them love
    It’s just a kind gesture
    Don’t know what they’re thinking of

    I go to my locker to get my coat
    I hear a strange voice say “My mom has a goat”
    I look up to see the girl that sits by me in French
    No one else sits by her cuz she has a bad stench
    But I’m too nice to say take a shower
    So I have to deal with my nose burnin’ all hour

    I hop on the bus, and I see her in the back
    She sees me and almost has a heart attack
    I don’t get what the big deal about me is
    Until she goes in her backpack, and pulls out her Cheez Whiz
    Then dips in a piece of her strawberry gum
    And asks me if I wanna try some

    To anyone else, this would be too gross
    The kid on her right side up and bolts
    But I stay, ‘cause she’d be alone if I left
    I have a conscience, and that’s what I regret

    She invites me to her party
    Of course I’m gonna go
    I’m trying to be late
    But I’m the first one to show
    So now I’m sitting on the couch with her dog named Puffer Snuffer
    I’d hate to be that dog, he sees too much of her

    Finally everyone else arrives
    They’re all dressed up as Harry Potter guys
    Little did I know, there’s a quidditch match tonight
    They’ve dubbed me seeker, Wow, I’m in Nirvana
    Actually, I’m not, I really don’t wanna
    Don’t think I can beat this? Just watch me, I’m gonna

    Oh, I broke my arm, accidentally
    I’m at the doctors, and the party followed me
    Since the game wasn’t finished, they took their book out and read it
    Said “This is how the game was supposed to have ended”

    I’m in the waiting room, not waiting for them to fix my bone
    Just waiting for curfew, so I can have some time alone

    Odd girls love me
    What can I say
    When they come up to me
    I don’t make ‘em go away
    I’m too polite
    When they tell me ‘bout their day
    Yeah, Odd girls love me
    But it’s the price that I pay
    • lmao. by ringsinmypocket at 2009-11-01 18:42:35
      Dude!.
      I had to do something in advanced biology about atoms.
      And I got assigned BORON!!.
      lmao.
      I love this, its so cool.

  • Tell me one thing, and I'll tell you two. Give me a foot, I'll give you a shoe. by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-10-29 00:11:06
    Today in class, someone was telling me about how at lunch someone asked her if she knew ".1 and me" and said she thinks we like eachother.
    Idk who this person is.
    But I'm pretty sure I decided I don't like her anymore.
    She doesn't really have much of a sense of humor, and she's crabby a lot.

    We all went to Banana Republic.

    There was this scarf there that I actually wanted.
    And also these sunglasses.

    I think I actually looked good on those ones... but Idk, I didn't really see what I looked like, But I was feeling it,
    Same with the scarf... it matched my coat and hoodie, and hair, and belt. All things I am always wearing when I would need a scarf.

    I didn't even look to see the price.. i forgot to look.

    I need to go shopping. I need to get a shopping buddy and go shopping this weekend. Someone who will actually shop though. in all seriousness. Our mission is to buy at least something.

    And I still want to go to GoodWill.

    Hmm.. that's all I can think of for today.

    Sooo Au Revoir
  • And Everytime You Shine, I'll Shine For You by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-10-27 16:55:36
    I am in love with Taylor Swift's song Jump Then Fall.
    It Is AmAZing!

    Ohh, Taylor Swift. I love Taylor Swift.
    ----
    I listened to that song about 4 times before school. 3 times on the computer, once on the ride to school.
    It put me in the BEST mood during school. It made me hyper and excited and amazing.
    ---
    We got the judgements of our speeches we made in English back today.
    Every student judged each speech.

    I got really good comments.
    Not a single bad comment.
    --The ComPLETE opposite of the project I did at the beginning of the year.. those all said stuf about my bad eye contact, and bad vocal presentation.
    THIS one said stuff like Great eye contact and Great voice.

    AwESOme!
    ---
    Math, I actually connected with all the other people in my group today.. all the more popular people.
    I started talking to this one kid about a presentation this one kid did, and one of the most popular girls in school was like "OMG I Heard about that!! I can't believe he did his project on that!"
    And then we said what it was, and others joined in.. other popular people.
    and the girl was like "Yeah, he is so weird." then told me a story about something he did to her one day..

    So that was nice.
    -------
    French, I was just not in the mood for french... it went straight through me.. even stuff that I knew well.
    But I was really hyper in that class.
    And my teacher thuoght I was REALLY weird because I connected the moles on my arm. (They aren't ugly moles, they look like big frekles)
    ----
    After school I gave 1. a ride home.
    I think I've decided I don't like her like that anymore.
    She just always seems to be complaining about Something.
    And when I see her in the halls, she never has any enthusiasm to say Hi.

    So for right now... 2. is #1 on my list. We seem to connect a lot better.
    And she reminds me of taylor swift, personality wise. And body figure wise too. So that probably biases my vote, but it's really not like a bad bias.
    -------------

    I feel like I had something else to say, but I can't think of anything else.
    So

    Au Revoir.
  • Following The Headlights by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-10-25 00:03:14
    I picked you up out of the pouring rain
    I figured everything would stay the same
    Just like it always has

    Making our way throughout the day
    We’re taking our time, and that’s ok
    ‘Cause that’s how you make things last

    Well, I didn't know that
    You were alone and
    You didn't have to go back home

    I could have kept driving
    Just you and I then
    We wouldn't need to go right now
    Everything would work out

    But you waved goodbye
    With your head sunk low
    I thought that meant you wanted me to go

    So I pulled out of the drive
    Following the head lights
    Looking for reasons to keep it alright

    I never thought it'd be so hard
    For me to leave behind something I'm not used to

    I caught up to the morning sun
    I saw you undoing what has been done

    You were running along
    And you were singing that song
    That we heard before I dropped you home

    You said you couldn't get to sleep that night

    And you were alone
    Well, you didn't have to go back home

    I could have kept driving
    Just you and I
    And we could have waiting for the morning light
    We didn’t have to say goodbye

    No, we didn’t have to say goodbye
  • I don't care about a subject today. by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-10-23 17:27:37
    Today started off good... ended on a lesser note.

    English, we didn't do much at all.
    Math we just worked on our work.
    Web Design, before class even started I could tell she was in a bad mood.
    I was talking with my friends before the bell, and she came out in the hall and just stood there, without a happy face, like she usually has. The bell rings so I say buy, and me and my friend who is also in that class go in, but she shuts the door almost all the way. We get in and she has a mad look on her face.
    Next thing we know, she is YELLING at us. Almost in tears, because we had a sub yesterday and we didn't do out work, we kinda just sat around.
    She got rid of her 'tude quickly, but she marked us all tardy.

    French, we had a sub, she was nice. But the people who sit around me were all being mean to me. Telling me to shut up because I was reading the homework aloud.. and they just kept being mean to me.
    Most of it was a joking mean, but some I dont think it was.
    Ugh.

    Then I get to my locker, and 1. is there. She looks upset, and starts ranting about how she didn't do good on her test, and has a crappy volleyball team.
    I understand...
    But she was dramaqueening it on the test issue, I think.

    Driving us all home, a cop car starts following me. What The Hell? I didnt do anything. I pull over, but he keeps passing. Then the fire truck comes out of the fire department.
    I'm safe.

    And now my whole family is in a pissy mood.
    So I'm not in a good mood right now, I want to leave and go somewhere, but I cant.

    errrrrere..

    I really hate today... I just want to be alone.

    Au Revoir.

    You know, I don't like the whole going to college idea.
    And I've completely neglected it.
    ACT??? To hell with it. I should have taken it Last year.
    I haven't given it a lick of thought.
    So I'm pretty much butt-fucked.

    I'm going to be going to the reject community college.
    -----------------
    But, I want the whole college experience.
    The freedom of the college experience.

    Like on Community. I want that.
    But going to college for me is just going to be a more expensive High School.
    I will be living at home. Still have the whole guarded life that I do now.
    It will all be the same.... just more expensive.
    -----------------
    I think it would be cool to go to a Tennessee community college. That way I will actually MOVE to Tennessee.

    I'm not actually going to move if my college is in my home city.
    I'm going to end up just living here my whole life.

    Not that I don't like it here... I do.
    I just don't like a lot of the people.
    And I hate the weather... it's too cold.

    BUT This week has been SOO Friggen nice. It's like spring. Such the contrairy of last week, which was like winter.
    ----
    So I guess this is time for:

    Au Revoir.
  • On second thought... by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-10-20 18:02:57
    Let's not play a love game.

    So, you all know I kinda like 1. Annie, right?
    ...Well I kinda do.
    ---
    So I get to my locker after school and she was waiting by my locker because she wanted a ride.
    Alright. I can give her a ride.

    Well as I pull out of the school, she tells me "Go straight. I don't want to go home."

    And all I could think was... "This is like a love song"
    "Please Don't Drive Me Home" - At The Stars
    "I wanna stay right here in this passenger seat" - Fearless

    Etc.
    So That was a nice moment. So we drove around a little bit.
    (But I was so tired.. at school I was planning on just going home and falling asleep).

    But the problem that made me start thinking was that I think she might be careless with money.
    She wanted a bunch of food, and she was telling me how when she has kids, she doesn't care how much it costs, if they want to do something, she isn't going to take them out of it.
    -I'm really stingy with money. I'm pretty cheap, it's almost like I'm a full-blooded Jew.

    -Driving out of there, she wanted to go somewhere else, but it was across the highway, so I'd need to do a U-Turn, and I have no idea where we are going, because she didn't say.

    So I make my U Turn, and an oncoming car is oncoming. Well, I figured they saw me in their lane, and they would slow down. Nope. They kept their speed until close to me, laying on their horn like a jackass.
    I know I didn't make the best move, but she could have done better on her part.
    (And I'm assuming it's a girl... I felt a PMS vibe coming from that horn).
    -----------
    For the most part, it was nice. Just hanging out for an hour after school. But it just made me think about the fact that I kinda like her, and making me come to reality that I'm not a relationship person.
    Which I always end up doing.

    I'm just not a relationship person. I must not have that gene.
    I can't take being close to someone. Once I start getting close, I end up pushing myself away. I start to nit-pick, and find flaws, and I can't deal with them... and I'm afraid of getting close.
    -----------
    Yeah. Well I haven't posted in forever.
    I was kind of happy that I found inspiration.

    Au Revoir.
  • There's A Hole In It. by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-10-14 20:38:10
    I went to the doctor today.

    Apparantly my blood pressure is kinda of high.
    She said it was borderline high. So it's not high, but it's close.
    130/80

    I got two shots. So one of my arms hurts. If I didn't get that shot, they would have kicked me out of school, and charged us 25 dollars a day or something like that.
    ------

    Then I went to do my school project. The video tape of a commercial.
    Amazingly we finished.
    It's pretty hilarious.

    During the writing of it, someone calls one of our partners and we hear her say "OH MY GOD!!!" When she hangs up, I asked if everything was alright, and she said that the girl she was talking to, her step brother killed her (the girl she was talking to) dad.
    Thats soo bad.
    ---
    The persons house we lived at started playing Rock Band, even though we were supposed to be working.
    He did Nine In The Afternoon, special request from me.

    He told me to sing it. I said no. But I really wanted to.
    I just was embarassed and shy. so I didnt.
    But I want to.

    I love that song.

    So now I want to play rock band.
    I just want to sing that song.
    ---------
    I guess that was my day.

    Au Revoir
    • Well by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-10-14 21:12:54
      I dont have playstation three, so that doesnt quite help me. But congradulations.
    • Haha. by ringsinmypocket at 2009-10-14 21:06:39
      Did you know that Nine in the afternoon is on the playstation 3, singstar?.
      Its like singing it only.
      I sang it so many times, I have the high score. :3.
      We can sing it together if your SHY!
      silly XD.
  • I know, I know. by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-10-14 01:06:34
    So I hung out with the people I went to homecoming with, tonight.

    Blast.

    I learned that 1. Annie is not that great to watch a movie with.
    She gets too into it, and doesn't like any communication. So she gets mad when you talk. That's not really a good way to watch a movie, just watching the movie, i mean.

    We watched THe Proposal.
    Halfway through, when the wedding part started coming up... I started realising I'm still alone.
    It was sad.
    Sometimes all I want is just a person I can watch a movie with, and snuggle up together. (I don't like that word, snuggle. But It's better than cuddle. They all sound so feminine)
    You know, though?

    But otherwise I had lots of fun.

    Though, I should get to bed. I have a doctors appnt in the morning. I gotta get 2 shots and a physical.
    I hate physicals. I don't want someone touching me in certain areas.
    Then right after that I have to work on a project.
    We are friggen improving our video for the English project.
    This is retarded.
    • err by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-10-14 01:52:08
      Haha I meant Improvising.
  • Chicks cannot hold their smoke, that's what it is. by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-10-12 23:11:35
    I just watched the Breakfast Club for the first time.

    I really liked it.

    -
    Spoiler
    -
    I hate that Brian was left alone at the end.
    Everyone else had a nice leave with one other, but Brian was left alone with his paper and himself. All he got was the punch on the shoulder that he gave to himself.

    It was cute though.
    .... yeah?.
    ------------------
    But that kinda made me want an 8 hour saturday detention.

    Just to have an experience like that.

    Break out of the clique for just a bit.

    I really don't have a clique. I'm not classified as anything.
    I just have friends.
    But there are people in cliques.
    --------------------------------------------------------------


    Life seems to be getting SO much better for me.
    I've said this a lot lately, and I'm repeating myself a lot, but it's true.

    My friendships with my aquaintances are building, and my friendships with my friends are becoming stronger.

    I actually have people who stop to talk to me.
    Not because they have to, but because they want to.

    I get invited to things on weekends. Not because they feel obligated, but because they enjoy my company.

    I am not just an awkward face anymore. I'm not just a quiet figure.
    I'm a person.

    I'm still not noticed by a lot of people, but I'm noticed by a lot more people. I'm noticed by a few more people who matter.

    And i'm liking it.

    Alright, without further repetition, I will go.
    Au Revoir.
  • "This is a peacefull couch" "Well, then take some peas out" by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-10-10 01:35:10
    Homecoming day!

    I tried my shirt on for the first time. I love it.
    It's soft, and an amazing blue, and fits, and just looks sweet.

    I need to wear dress clothes more often!
    ----------

    So.. I had a good time.

    We had a fancy dinner at my friends house
    like, a 5 course meal. with Candles and properly placed silverware
    Salad
    Dinner
    Dessert
    Dessert #2
    ok 4 course

    We get to the dance, they split guys and girls up into two different lines. Lame.
    We waiting in line forever, my and my friends boyfriend.
    Then we finish and the girls are still in line.. the line is ever worse!
    We finally all get out, but then have to wait in ANOTHER line to put our coats away.
    That was like 40 minutes of our dance.

    I saw two people I know who said "OH MY GOD YOUR HERE! YOU LOOK AMAZING! You should wear that everyday!"
    Then soon later, "OMG! You Look So Cute!"
    Then more like that later on.

    I didn't dance at first.. I just stood there awkwardly as well as my friend and her boyfriend.
    Busted my ear drum, pretty much.
    I had random guys butts rubbing on me.
    And beeing pushed by the "motion of the ocean"
    I did do the "Right foot stomp, left foot stomp" dance.

    But then later on, I started joking around with lame dances, then it got into actually dancing..... poorly.

    But I danced the rest of the night.
    Poorly.

    But it was fun.
    Then one girl who I know (Who's kinda whorish... not skanky, but she gets around)
    She started dancing with me during that "Jump on it" song.
    And she was like Grind dancing me, or whatever. I wasn't used to it.

    Then this boy who everyone thinks is weird... He is a big Dork. Not really in the good way.. started dancing in my group... like a dork.
    And at one point he grabbed my arms and started dancing with me.. I'm like "uhmm... ohkkkay"
    ---
    I felt like Jim from the Office during it. And the boyfriends girlfriend was Pam.
    Because I kept looking over at her, and she would look at me, and we'd both give some facial expression.

    And later in the dance, this nerdy girl came by us and danced, and it was Priceless.
    And I looked at my friend, and gave a huge smile, and she did the same. And we kept looking at eachother and laughing.
    And I thought "Wow, this is like Pam and Jim"
    --
    I attempted the Electric Slide.
    I got to dance a Liiitle bit with 1. Annie. Wasn't the type or time I wanted.

    I made a new friend. She's a foreign exchange student.
    I felt bad because I could barely understand her... but that's just me, I can't even understand fluent English people.
    But some of her accent was so cute. I took pictures of her, and she didn't want them, she had her pillow over her face in them all, and she's like "You already took pictures of me" "No, you had a pilow over you" Then we are arguing about how they don't count.
    "Ok.. you can delet (pronounced dee-let). You prefer this one?"
    "Yes" "Ok, (Then presumes to delete) "NONO, that one you keep" "No, you said you prefer to delet" "You Are A Tricky Girl!!"

    haha it was fun.
    ----
    Then we went back to my friends house and watched a movie. It was me and 7 girls. They all slept over, I couldnt..
    But I stayed til 2:30 cause we watched a movie.
    -----

    That's about it I guess.

    I feel like I'm missing something, but I can't think of it.
    ------------------------------
    Off topic.
    My car singing voice is getting so much better.
    At first it SUCKED. It was so nervy.
    Then it was better, I was less shy, but it still sucked.
    But now I'm not shy with it, and I actually sing, and It's not that bad, I think.

    I only do it alone, though. Have yet to car-sing in front of people.
    Except for "Row Row Row Your Boat"

  • But I Know That I Don't Wanna Look No More. by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-10-09 17:38:46
    Homecoming Weekend!

    It is starting off pretty darn good.

    Half day of school.
    We got donuts in english class.

    But I got a 64% on my test... the teacher saw me walk in the room and said my name three times. I said "I know, it's [my id] in my pocket"
    "No, that's not what I'm talking about" Then she motioned me to come.
    "Did you study?"
    "Did I do bad?? Yeah, I did, because I skipped a lot of questions"
    "yeah... but it's a good thing.... (I missed the last part

    I like that teacher... she is so nice.
    When other teachers would be real mad at me, she is so calm and kind.
    ---
    Math.. we just played games.. it was boring.

    Then Thats it.
    ---
    I went to subway with my two friends, but I saw 1. Annie on my way to my locker... I said I'd give her a ride, but then we decided she will go to Subway with us, even though she didn't know my friends.

    I baught her sub. She didn't want a drink

    But half way through my drink, she put a straw in it and we shared the drink.
    !!!!!!!!!

    Then I dropped her off, and me and the other two went and watched a movie. My one friend kept asking if I liked her, I wouldn't answer.. partially because the other girl likes me, I guess.
    But when I was giving the girl a ride home, she freaked out and asked me, so I told her.

    So that's about it...


    Up next is Homecoming Football Game.

    Idk how much will happen there.

  • Leather Hands by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-10-08 19:16:52
    I think I saw you standing alone
    Crying his name
    Looking for home

    I think I saw you standing alone
    Crying his name

    Oh, it's not easy
    Bidding your heart away
    And it's not easy
    Watching it all blow up in flames

    I saw a man
    Black tie
    Leather hands
    I saw him walk into the water
    He walked before your father

    He said he couldn't see straight
    I took a look at his face
    Something wasn't right
    I didn't know until it was too late

    I saw you with him days before
    He was standing at your door
    That's when the lights went out
    You just didn't notice yet

    I watched a cab drive away
    It started off the parade
    I didn't know what to say
    But I stayed
    There wasn't any way I could leave

    I saw your father by the window
    His face was warm
    His eyes were cold
    He was telling a woman in a long black dress
    That when the moon finds the sun
    The day will fall down
    And the night will have won

    Her eyes were cross
    For his words were off
    She didn't know what he was talking about
    I knew
    Well, he's your father
    But, I just couldn't go

    I think I saw you standing alone
    Crying his name

    I think I saw you standing alone
    Crying his name
    Looking for home

    Well I don't know where time brings you
    All I know is it cut through
    Everything
    Everything you had
    And I don't know if there's still light
    But they say the futures bright
    They key to it all
    It's sitting in your hands

    Oh, it's not easy


    ---------
    I tried to make it dramatic, not another Boy love girl.
    So here's what I at least was TRYING to say

    A boyfriend and girlfriend are together
    Dad doesn't like the boyfriend in the first place
    Boy and Girl get busy
    Girl gets pregnant
    Dad finds out.
    Kills the boy
    There at the funeral
    Dad's telling this girl (in code) that he killed the boy
    I kill the dad
    The girl is sad, cuz she lost the two men in her life.
  • I wanted this subject to be perfect, but with the time I was given, I just couldn't find a quote good enough. by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-10-07 07:10:17
    Is it wrong to want perfection out of life?

    I'm not a perfectionist... no where near... but there are some big pictures that I want perfect.

    Like relationships.
    I have this image in my mind of what I want out of a relationship.
    This is what I want, and this is what I look for.

    But is it wrong to be looking for this?
    Am I supposed to be looking for love, or is love supposed to find me?

    Maybe you're meant to be with a certain person, and maybe that person won't give what you want.
    But you make it work?

    I don't know.
    But I was watching "Away We Go" last night, and it reminded me of what I want.
    I want a love where you are Literaly the "other half."

    Everyone says their significant other is their "other half." but it's not always true. It's just a shallow phrase. I want the real deal.

    I want little surprises.

    I want cute stories that make your day brighter than you thought possible.
    I want stories that turn into tradition.

    I want it all.

    But is it bad that I'm looking for this?
    Or am I supposed to let it find me?

    -'Cause last night, I started thinking. And I think I'm back down to not liking anymore.

    1. Annie, she never seems happy when she sees me in the hall. Whenever I know she can see me, I'll wave, or say 'hey,' but her response is always a slight wave, with not much facial expression.
    It's not like a bitchy tone, it's just effortless, and lacks emotion.
    Maybe I'm just taking it too personal?

    2. Annie, it seems like we are getting closer. Not like Close closer, but more like, aquainted closer. But I'm not sure about liking her anymore. Although she seems like more of a type I'm looking for.

    And then Taylor, I gave that up a while ago.

    --I suck at this relationship thing.
    I've never been good at it.

    I can never actually truely like someone. Either I don't find the right people, or I just make a mess out of it. I think it's a bit of both.

    I want to know how long this will last, because I hope it isn't stained.

    hmmmm... well I guess that's all.
    I was going to do a Porky the Pig impression here, but I thought that was too tasteless for this topic.

    so.
    Au Revoir.




    ----
    Away from this specific topic.... I want memories. It's sad when your own life doesn't even read you bedtime stories.

    I'm tired of making them up myself.

    ------

    Edited now.... my english class has a project to make a commercial using propoganda. It could be fun. 2. Annie is in that class.
    I wrote a jingle for it in my math class.
    "If your stockings have holes
    And you can see your toes
    Don't try to mend it
    Just buy new clothes
    You will feel sweet
    With new socks on your feet
    So don't try to mend the holes
    Get out and buy new Clothes!!"

    Yeah.

    Au Revoir encore.
  • Can't You See That I'm The One Who Understands You? by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-09-30 16:37:01
    It's amazing how just a couple of words can dramatically change your outlook on the day.

    10 minutes before school ended I thought: "Hey, I'm going to go on songmeanings when I get home and talk about my good day. I just feel today was really good"

    but then my teacher plays this song, and no one really wanted to listen to it, but we did, cuz we had to.
    It was ending, so I told my partners "This reminds me of school house rock"
    We started a little conversation about it, forgetting the song was technically still playing.
    My teacher got SOOO MAD and upset. And it's basically all my fault.

    So I ended the day in a bad mood. And I just felt like such a bad person.

    Then, being in my bad mood... this girl who annoys me (Who talks to me all the time) asked for a ride home. She always wants a ride to or from school.
    UGH. I wanted to be in peace.

    BUT I drop her off and drive home, and guess what the radio played.
    YOU BELONG WITH ME.
    For some reason, everytime I am in a Really bad mood going home, Taylor Swift plays on the radio. I love it.

    ---------
    I'm going to jot down some things about today, in case you care.

    •Before school, I saw Annie #1 sitting at this table, alone, doing her homework. I went and talked to her for the rest of the time before school. It was nice.

    •English: Really good. We did group projects. I like my group. Annie #2 is in it. She was fun. And i think we are closer now. It was nice.

    •Math- We got new stupid seats. So now I don't sit by Taylor anymore, or the other girl I talk to (more than Taylor). No, I sit by this kid who I sit by in Web Design who ANNOYS ME. UGH.

    •Web Design- Before class I turned all the locks on the locks outside the room to set at "00." I've always wanted to do that. And I felt while I was doing it, that once I completed it, The wall would like, open, and treasures would be hiding behind it. All I got was a high five from this girl (Who I liked for the first week of class, not anymore. Turns out she's engaged")

    •French- I laughed like, the whole class. It was fun. ALL until that whole song fiasco. Then that put me in a bad mood, and I feel really bad about it.

    So yeah, that's my school day.

    Au Revoir.
  • You Know I Don't Believe You When You Say That You Don't Need Me. by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-09-28 17:39:39
    So I bet you've noticed. . . It did not take 3 minutes for this page to load.
    That's cuz I deleted all of my journals, except the lyrics/poems.

    But I will still add more "Daily Journals", it just might not be daily.

    I think I'll delete these ones quicker though, just keep them posted for a while, then delete.
    I guess people like to read my journals?

    What's new with me since the last time I've posted:
    I-I decided I'm going to homecoming. I'm going with a big group. It includes: Me, 5 girls, and one of the girls' boyfriend. One of the girls in the group is the girl I like.

    II-The girl I like- I gave her a ride home last friday. I told her how these ReLiGiOuS people kept me after school for FORTY MINUTES talking about the Bible. (I'm not religious). She got upset, because she thinks I should believe, so she invited me to Youth Group. I wasn't fond of the idea, but I said I'll go, anyways, because I like her, and I couldn't say no. Well, I gave her my number, she never called. I hope I gave the right number, because otherwise she is probably mad at me, then.
    That was MUCH longer than I thought it would be

    III-I guess there isn't a three. Hmm, I guess I could say I've been sick since Friday night. Saturday was worst. Sunday started healing, but it still is crappy. Almost gone.

    So, yeah.
    Au Revoir, then.
  • Farmville by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-09-27 22:43:09
    I was playing Farmville on Facebook, and I typed the first stanza of this as a "Message Sign" as a joke, but then I decided I should create a whole song out of it.
    So here you go.
    It's a parody of "You Belong With Me" by the one and only Taylor Swift
    ---------------

    You're on the farm with your chicken, it lays eggs
    You're going off about having a great breakfast
    You've been waiting 24 hours

    I’m in my field
    I’m harvesting my grapefruit
    I’m picking out the next seeds that I’ll use
    I’m thinkin’ I’m gonna plant sunflowers

    Well you have horses
    I have sheep
    So will you give me something
    That will make my farm complete
    I’ll send you green hay
    Well, I hope you don’t mind
    That you wanted red
    At least you were in mind

    Can’t you see that I am going to beat you
    I’ve been working all day long
    I’ll plant my seeds
    And buy some trees
    Standing here by the white fence post
    Waiting, ‘cause my peaches are growing
    Off of my peach tree
    Off of my peach tree

    I walk out to meet the cows of my neighbor Steve
    Looks like I’m gonna have to pick some weeds
    Well, I’m wondering why he can’t do it himself
    Never mind, this is easy

    And you’ve got a sign that says “You’re the new Farmer Brown”
    I sent it to you last night, you were out of town
    You saw it and couldn’t help but laugh
    It wasn’t funny, but, hey, I’ll take that

    Well, you have cabbage
    I’ve got coffee
    will you give me something
    That will make my farm complete
    I’ll send you green hay
    Well, I hope you don’t mind
    That you wanted red
    At least you were in mind

    Can’t you see that I am going beat you
    I’ve been working all day long
    I’ll plant my seeds
    And buy some trees
    Standing here by the white fence post
    Waiting, ‘cause my peaches are growing
    Off of my peach tree
    Off of my peach tree

    Oh, I remember you rushing through my house
    It was a quarter after nine
    You said you had to check your plants
    ‘Cause you’re sure they’re about to die
    You’ve waited for so long
    You had to check your broccoli
    Well, look who’s got it wrong
    You’re gonna have to wait ‘til 3:00

    Can’t you see that I am going to beat you
    I’ve been working all day long
    I’ll plant my seeds
    And buy some trees
    Standing here by the white fence post
    Waiting, ‘cause my peaches are growing
    Off of my peach tree
    Off of my peach tree

    Off of my peach tree
    It has dark green leaves
    Well, It’s my peach tree
    Yeah, it’s my peach tree
  • One More Chance by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-09-26 12:26:02
    I remember the first time
    When I looked into your eyes
    I can't forget what I saw
    It was a perfect sight
    I fell in love that night
    But now all of that's gone

    Since you left I've been here
    Trying to fight back my tears
    But they still fall
    Now I'm lying in my bed
    Where you used to rest your head
    I'm praying you would call

    In my dreams I see
    A life with you and me
    Together once again
    So listen, my old friend
    Please give me one more chance
    And I can be your man
    Because it's true
    I can't live without you
    Come and take my hand
    If you'll give me one more chance

    I'm listening to our song
    I know it might be wrong
    But it brings back sweet memories
    I don't know why I'm doing this
    I guess I want the things I miss
    And I want you here with me

    In my dreams I see
    A life with you and me
    Together once again
    So listen, my old friend
    Please give me one more chance
    And I can be your man
    Because it's true
    I can't live without you
    Come and take my hand
    If you'll give me one more chance

    In my dreams I see
    A life with you and me
    Together once again
    So listen, my old friend
    Come and take my hand,
    If you'll give me one more chance

      Awesome! Great, loved it.
  • Dark Waters by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-09-26 12:23:45
    The lightning strikes as you turn the porch lamp on
    And walk down to your car
    The thunder rolls as you turn on the ignition
    And drive down the boulevard

    Tonight the world started to turn a little hazy
    Fog's rolling over my home
    In dark waters now, my life's changing right in front of me
    What happens next is unknown

    Oh, oh, and now

    The rain is falling down
    Over this Georgia town
    And I can see the sun trying to break through
    But you're there
    Stopping the sun from shining to
    Anywhere
    And now I'm stuck in the darkness
    Oh, I'm so far away from you

    Now I'm sitting here alone in my bedroom
    Listening to the rain fall
    I'm not sure what I am going to do
    I guess some guys can't have it all

    Oh, oh, and still

    The rain is falling down
    Over this Georgia town
    And I can see the sun trying to break through
    But you're there
    Stopping the sun from shining to
    Anywhere
    And now I'm stuck in the darkness
    Oh, I'm so far away from you

    I'm so far away from you
  • Melted Butter by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-09-26 12:19:19
    Go trip the light fantastic
    As you stumble 'cross the floor
    Show the world a smile
    There's no need for nothing more

    They all can see right through you
    They can see the hurt inside
    And all your liquid cover-up
    Is known to all those eyes

    So keep it calm, prove them wrong

    You're a young heart with a tattered soul
    Trying to get by in this hellhole
    And no one seems to understand

    They think you're crazy, half insane
    But you don't want to play that game
    You know it's out of your hands

    They'll never know the real you
    But you never show them what's true

    Your stammer doesn't help your case
    It's a disappointing sound
    And those scars upon your wrist
    Are just more faults that they have found

    But you're right; if it helps you sleep at night

    Everybody sees the signs
    They can read between the lines
    Don't tell me every one is wrong

    I know in your mind, you are ok
    But listen to what they have to say
    You don't have to act so strong

    Take a look inside yourself
    You might find out you're someone else
  • Don't Fall Down by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-09-26 12:17:54
    You woke me up
    To show me the day
    And with that look in your eyes
    I thought it would never go away

    The air was crisp
    There was a sparkle on the grass
    I paused a moment to take it all in
    Then came to my senses. I can't let this pass

    But time moves quicker than expected
    I wasn't ready for you to go

    Don't fall down
    I can't let you leave
    Before I let you know
    Don't fall down
    We can make it right
    If you could just stay for me tonight

    I didn't mean to keep you waiting
    Or seem like I didn't care

    Don't fall down
    I know we can make it right
    Don't fall down
    Could you stay with my tonight
  • As Bad As You by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-09-26 12:15:14
    It doesn't matter what I do or say
    I know it won't make a difference
    You've built your pedestal too high
    And now you won't listen

    I've tried to make it out
    And leave a little sun behind
    But you're making it too hard
    To keep the decency in mind

    Someday I hope you see
    I wasn't quite as bad as you made me out to be

    Now we can't go back
    We've dug ourselves too deep
    Crawling up these walls
    Is nothing more than something left to dream

    When you look at me like that
    Disbelieving what I say
    There's no wonder why you think
    I don't treat you the right way

    Maybe I didn't say "I love you"
    Enough to make you feel at home
    But if you took the time to think about
    All the other things I've done

    Maybe you'd see
    I wasn't quite as bad as you made me out to be

    But now we can't go back
    We've dug ourselves too deep
    Crawling up these walls
    Is nothing more than something left to dream

    We've lost it all
    Ripped apart at the seams
    Just let it be known
    I wasn't quite as bad as you made me out to be
  • I (Don't) Need You by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-09-26 12:08:29
    I can’t tell if you’re really there
    I can’t tell if you really care
    All I know is right now, I am alone

    You kept me on the wall
    Helped me up in case I’d fall
    But that last time, you left me on my own

    I thought I knew you
    Inside and out
    You left me here
    Filled with all doubt

    Where did I go wrong?
    What did I do to you?
    Was there something there
    That I never knew?

    Did I look too far
    To see in front of me?
    Was I making up excuses
    For our instability?

    Where did I go wrong?

    I tried to call your way
    But everything that I’d say
    Lacked a listener, and lacked a reply

    Weren’t you the one who told me that you’d be
    Everything I’d ever need?
    Does that mean I don’t need you tonight?

    I thought I knew everything about you
    I guess I was mistaken
    Because I thought you wouldn't leave

    Where did I go wrong?
    What did I do to you?
    Was there something there
    That I never knew?

    Did I look too far
    To see in right front of me?
    Was I making up excuses
    For our instability?

    Where did I go wrong?

    Where did I go . . .?
  • The Masterpiece We've Created by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-09-26 09:21:42
    I cannot wait for the day our eyes meet

    And there’s that moment
    When I know it’s meant to be

    ‘Cause everything in you
    And everything in me
    Everything around us
    Starts the masterpiece we’ve created
    And the lives we’ll grow to know

    Though at times we might hate it
    We’ll make it work

    ‘Cause when we’ve finally made it
    There’ll be no reason to say good-bye

    When we’ve made it
    There’ll be no reason we can’t fly

    When we’ve made it
    There’ll be no use for the word good-bye
  • Like Romeo And Juliet by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-08-30 02:50:49
    An Original
    --
    I have to say, I'm proud of myself for getting these allusions.
    Although I ended up making Titanic sound more like their love died, not that death "delayed love."

    And I do realise now I rhymed Again twice, Who cares?

    And I ended up taking more of a humorous tone at the end.. The whole Titanic thing, I couldn't help myself.
    -------------------------------

    And when you look at me that way
    It’s almost like you want me to stay
    Well, I know you’re just caught up in the night
    It’s not so easy that these things change

    Like the way my name flowed from your lips
    And the shock that sparked off your fingertips
    It hasn’t been like this for a while
    And I don’t know how it got like this

    We were once a perfect set
    Like Romeo and Juliet
    Or Marie and Pierre
    But our chemistry we had
    Sparked too quick, then disappeared

    And now our paths have crossed again
    With a room full of our old friends
    It’s all a big flash from the past
    But I doubt that it will happen again

    ‘Cause you were Cher, singing your song
    But it wasn’t Sonny for too long
    You were Scarlett, I was Rhett
    And now, my dear, I don’t give a damn
    That’s another thing you can’t get

    Oh, I was Jack, you were Rose
    Our love was strong until it froze
    You let me go

    We were a perfect set
    Like Romeo and Juliet


    --------------
    Marie and Pierre (curie) were partners in love and science.
    I think those would be the only ones people wouldn't commonly know.

    Maybe Scarlett and Rhett. . they are from Gone With The Wind
  • Stand By by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-08-25 12:10:57
    So, I wrote this to sound like an Old time song. Kinda . . Elvisy/60's(50s? idk) idk.
    Aand, Jackie isn't a real person, it just rhymed with Me and I couldn't think of a better name.

    ----------------------

    We’ve been out
    Out all night
    And we’ve got plans until the morning light

    Don’t be crazy
    You know I’m a fool for you

    Don’t you think, maybe
    We could start something new

    Beneath our footsteps, the world becomes alive
    That’s the only feeling I want to feel tonight

    Oh, but I know
    I know it’s hard for you
    To make believe
    Believe your dreams come true
    Oh, But Jackie
    Would you stand by me

    And when you hold me
    Can’t you feel something there

    Your whispers told me
    The feelings softened the air

    And when the city lights become too bright
    Well, we’ll wait it out until the morning light

    Oh, but I know
    I know it’s hard for you
    To make believe
    Believe your dreams come true
    Oh, but Jackie
    Would you stand by me

    Oh, Jackie
    Won’t you stand by me

    An Original (Just like all others, just making it clear)
    ------------
    I want to say, first. This lyric makes me glad to have written because Like Two years ago I wrote a little poem, I always wanted to create it into a full lyric (Along with others) but never did, not until now.
    I was writing the first two lines, and realised "OMG I can mix this with that poem" So I did. And I'm Glad
    ---------------------------------------------------------------
    We’re too young to see it all clear
    Well, it comes through best in the rear view mirror
    So let’s see it how we’re meant to
    Lets make this our breakthrough

    What do you say? We could leave this place
    Start our lives in another way
    Let the roads
    Lead us where we should go

    Maybe we could be down in Tennessee
    Or Carolina, set along the beach
    Let me know
    Where would you rather go?

    We’re too young to see it all clear
    Well, it comes through best in the rear view mirror
    So let’s see it how we’re meant to
    Lets make this our breakthrough

    The sooner the better
    We don’t have forever

    We’re too young to see it all clear

  • Go My Way by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-08-03 13:15:42
    An original

    A moment of perfection
    A minute’s worth to mention
    Somebody help because I’m losing my senses

    A second destination
    A flash of hesitation
    I don’t have a choice, but I think I know what the best is

    Looking back to the mystery
    Of what could be
    With you and me
    Wondering what could change
    If just that one day
    Could go my way

    But just ‘cause dreams don’t always come true
    That doesn’t mean we can’t believe sometimes they do

    So the sand falls down the line
    Hours steal away my mind
    Continuing the scenes of last night

    The days blend and they combine
    Making a week of lost time
    Some may say this road isn’t right

    Looking back to the mystery
    Of what could be
    With you and me
    Wondering what could change
    If just that one day
    Could go my way

    So the sand falls down the line
    Hours steal away my mind
    Continuing the scenes of last night

    I was going to rearrange the first two verses, making the times sequention, rising up from smallest to largest, but It seemed better this way.

  • Tomorrow's Not Today by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-07-24 23:24:25
    I would just like everyone to know _----_ All of these lyrics and poems are poems I've written myself, not ones That I am copy/pasting.
    So if you read them, read them with critique. Not like "Im gonna pass this up cuz it's just a stupid post of some random song that he thinks relates to him" All of the posts I post are my own.
    ---------------

    It’s a shame the way you danced around under the moonlit night
    Like you were free of the world that’s been holding you down
    Because we all know tomorrow you will change
    And you won’t be yourself

    And we all know tomorrow won’t be the same
    Tomorrow’s not today

    I think I’d believe it more if you danced under the sky
    Like you would break the fall if you were to crash down
    Because we all know the clouds have yet to rain
    And you’re not by yourself

    And we all know tomorrow won’t be the same
    Tomorrow’s a different day
    Tomorrow’s bringing change
    Tomorrow’s not today

    Sitting where everyone can see
    You can’t believe it’s happening
    It’s happening

    And we all know tomorrow won’t be the same
    Tomorrow’s a different day
    Tomorrow’s bringing change
    Tomorrow’s not today
    Not today
    Not today

    Tomorrow’s not today
  • We Find A Way by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-07-15 01:49:45
    Cold and quiet
    You’ve stolen the crowd
    And suddenly yesterday
    Isn’t a nightmare anymore

    Still and silent
    As they all gather ‘round
    Listen to them say
    It’ll never be the same as it was before

    We change our lives
    Making promises we,
    We keep tonight
    Lost in ourselves, we find,
    We find a way
    To make it out and we
    We find a way to make it right
    We find a way to make it right

    Slowly moving
    Down the darkened path
    And we all see what it means
    To live eternity

    Parked aside
    While the world is moving passed
    We all think it’s a dream
    Because, really, it’s just too hard to believe

    We change our lives
    Making promises we,
    We keep tonight
    Lost in ourselves, we find
    We find a way
    To make it out and we
    We find a way to make it right
    We find a way to make it right

    One day you’ll be waiting
    Waiting for the day to prove
    Everything’s not what it seems
    And we mistake it for a chance to make it through

    We change our lives
    Making promises, we
    We keep tonight
    Lost in ourselves, we find
    We find a way
    To make it out and we
    We find a way to make it right
    We find a way to make it right

    Find a way to make it
    Right
    Find a way to make it

    He’s a star
    With the perfect scenery
    And he captured your heart
    Kept it under lock and key

    In the cellar of dust
    Never polished like it should be
    Hidden behind the rust
    Where the heartaches ones stood

    And I don’t think you’d ever hear
    The words you’d expect him to say
    Coming from the lips you’d expect them
    To be said that way

    And I don’t think you’d ever live
    A life in a Fairytale day
    He may look like Prince Charming
    But he just doesn’t have the right words to say

    I don’t know what you see
    In the way he looks at you
    And he stars in your dreams
    But he’s not the one for you
    I wish you could see
    The way I look at you
    And in my dreams
    Standing next to you

    He’s the one
    That’s what you tell all your friends
    He’s the picture perfect someone
    To be with ‘til the end

    But you are blind
    To see the reality
    You see things in your mind
    But that’s all only a dream

    And I don’t know what you see
    In the way he looks at you
    And he stars in your dreams
    But he’s not the one for you
    I wish you could see
    The way I look at you
    And in my dreams
    When I’m standing next to you

    But he’s a star
    With the perfect scenery
    And he’s captured your heart
    Kept it under lock and key

    I realise I keep rhyming You with You with You with You in the Chorus. But I couldn't think of anything better to change it to without changing the point of the words.
    But this is songmeanings and anything can be interpreted into having meaning, so let's say that me saying YOU so much is putting emphasis on the girl, making her important. idk
  • The Coffee's Cheap by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-06-30 12:27:29
    Sitting down
    To an old story
    Of an old friend

    It’s a tragedy
    And I don’t think
    The pieces could possibly mend

    Playing cards
    In the light
    Of a citronella candle

    There aren’t any moves left
    But I keep turning over the deck

    I don’t know what I expect to find
    Maybe that it’s all in my mind

    Waiting out
    This calm before the storm
    The storm should wash it all away

    Opening doors
    To unfamiliar rooms
    Hoping I can leave today

    Making toasts
    To my own pride
    It’s been one hell of a ride

    Now the needle’s running on empty
    But there’s nowhere to fill up my tank

    I don’t know what I expect to find
    Maybe that it’s all in my mind

    And standing here
    Waiting for
    The clouds to clear
    When I know they won’t disappear
    Is not what I intended
    But I guess that I’ll pretend it’s not as bad as it seems

    And I don’t know what I expect to find

    I’m sorry I called you every night
    And I’m sorry that you answered
    Because I know how much It must have hurt
    To listen to me care

    I guess you have all the right
    To leave this question unanswered
    I was so wrong to have said it first
    I was so unaware

    You were woken up
    By a dreamer
    Who was thinking of
    How great his future might be
    And you couldn’t
    Be more wrong
    And I wouldn’t
    Just let it be

    I guess this is where we end
    With potential to be forgotten
    But I don’t know how we got this far
    If that’s really what you think

    I don’t think I’ll see you again
    ‘Cause I know what it was like back when
    Something tells me it won’t be too hard
    Remembering how you made your rank

    You were woken up
    By a dreamer
    Who was thinking of
    How great his future might be
    And you couldn’t
    Be more wrong
    And I wouldn’t
    Just let it be

    Because some of us have a little bit too much fun
    And some of us couldn’t care less for what we’ve done
    Or what we’ve become

    Dreams begin
    And Dreams end
    Then they’re forgotten
    After the sun breaks through

    Nights are short
    Days drag on
    And I’ve forgotten
    The last time I saw you

    I like the way in your eyes
    I can see the reflection of mine
    And the way our heartbeats
    Matches so perfectly

    But I’m being dragged away
    And I can’t quite hear what you say

    You know, hearts like yours never die
    You can’t die when your never alive

    Restless nights
    And wandering thoughts
    Bring me back
    To where you are

    But I’m being dragged away
    And I can’t quite hear what you say

    You know, hearts like yours never die
    You can’t die when your never alive

    Hearts like yours can’t die
    Hearts like yours are never alive

    First of all - - it's about The Girl Of My Dreams. I only see her when I sleep. She doesn't really exsist.

    The line "I've forgotten the last time I saw you"
    That is because earlier I said "[dreams] are forgotten when the sun breaks through" So I've forgotten the dream/I've forgotten the time I saw her

    "I'm being dragged away" Means, I'm waiting through the day. Earlier I say "Days drag on" so . . the day is dragging me

    I just wanted to get that out there, it was puzzled together to compliment other parts in the poem.
  • Left To Right, Top To Bottom by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-06-19 16:21:59
    Someday
    I am going to wake up and I
    Won’t wake up the same because I will
    Be in a new bed and you’ll be
    Here, called by a different name

    Someday
    I am going to walk the street and you
    Will see my face, but I will
    Not be by your side, and maybe you’d
    Care that I kept walking by

    And don’t you know that
    You were my life. I said forever, and I
    Will say it again, but
    Not for the same reason. I will not
    See you. Yes, I think
    It is sad, and thank you for
    Coming to me, and for the memories

    Because they meant so much
    You know, people change. Exhibit A.
    Keep telling yourself it’s only the start
    You’re only hurting yourself. You fill your
    Head with lies and they bury you
    So deep that you are left
    High and dry

    ------------
    I title it "Left To Right, Top To Bottom" because if you read the first word of each line Down, then it says something.

    Also, I was unsure if the last Paragraph reading Down made sence. I dont know if that can be an idiom for Not Paying Attention....

  • Let's Just Admit We All Want To Make It To Ever Ever After by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-06-18 00:18:10
    Maybe there isn't True Love... maybe True Love is just The Love that makes you stop looking for Love in other places because you know you have found it. True Love might just be the Certainty of knowing you are in love and nothing can change that...
    Maybe there isn't that ONE person you are meant to be with.... but I do believe there are people out there who hold the "true love" key to your heart.
    -

    I was talking to my Ex-Best-Friend because she was doubting if she was in love or not. And she said something about how she isn't sure if she believes in True Love anymore... So I said that.

    I kind of like it.

    And that whole talk makes me want to watch Enchanted now.. No, I'm not a girl...

    Alright, well have a great night!

  • Hear My Voice by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-06-14 17:07:50
    Winter’s long
    And the snow is falling
    Down on my eyes
    I can’t keep them open
    And I don’t know why
    But I
    Traded away
    Everything in my possession
    I’ve Lost my way
    Turned another direction
    You can’t hear my voice
    This way

    A shadow in the mirror
    It glares back at me
    Tells me I’d see clearer
    If I just opened up

    I couldn’t break the silence
    Of the world starting to die
    It’s amazing I can’t hide this
    When I keep it bottled up inside

    Through the dust
    I might see sunlight rising
    Over this town
    Maybe I’d try
    To awaken somehow
    Lately I’ve
    Been hiding away
    I’ve been unspoken
    I’ve covered my name
    You may think I’m broken
    But you’ll hear my voice
    Today

    A shadow in the mirror
    It glares back at me
    Tells me I’d see clearer
    If I just opened up

    I couldn’t break the silence
    Of the world starting to die
    It’s amazing I can’t hide this
    When I keep it bottled up inside

    But you’ll hear my voice
    Today
  • Unusual by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-05-30 19:10:13
    Your eyes are flooded with visions of the world
    Couldn’t get much clearer
    This diamond in the rough
    This is who we were

    Your life’s burning in the center of your heart
    Believe me when I tell you
    That you won’t begin to realize
    This is who we are

    No one knows
    No one can see
    No one can hear
    The words we speak
    It doesn’t matter what we do
    Everything’s unusual to me

    A drop of life falls upon your cheek
    Keep it up until the end
    I know it’s not going to change
    This is who we’ll be

    No one knows
    No one can see
    No one can hear
    The words we speak
    It doesn’t matter what we do
    Everything’s unusual to me

    This is who we are
    This is what we’ll be
    But everything’s unusual
    Everything’s unusual
    Everything’s unusual to me
  • Names In The Sand by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-05-28 21:01:46
    Well, here we are, where I first met you
    On the shores of this beach, with sand of white
    It’s been a while
    Since the tide was high

    We tried to write our names in the sand
    But we knew the water would wash it away
    That didn’t stop us
    We tried anyway

    Because, for that moment
    The time it was there
    We were happy
    And we didn’t care
    That time would end
    Our moment to share

    Since we couldn’t finish writing
    Both of our names at once
    We’d start a new game
    Away from the ocean

    We carried wet sand over to the dry
    And combined the two to make our art
    A perfect castle
    Carefully carved

    But the beach isn’t only ours
    And little kids create big scars
    We knew this
    But we built our castle anyway

    Because, for that moment
    The time it was there
    We were happy
    And we didn’t care
    That time would end
    Our moment to share

    Well, here we are, where I first met you
    On the shores of this beach, with sand of white
    It’s been a while
    Since the tide was high
  • The Eyes Of A Different God by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-05-22 17:18:27
    I wrote this just now because my English teacher said we are going to be writing a peom about the Holocaust. I figured I'd write something now so I'm prepared for when we do write it.
    Idk if this is what she is looking for, but it's what I have at the moment.
    -----

    This isn't our home
    But these are my people
    We aren't alone
    But we feel lost at sea

    Like a fish with no water
    We can't live much longer
    Not like this, at least

    I'm losing my mind
    My heart
    My soul
    My faith in life before me

    They took it from my hands
    All they left are crumbs
    Small crumbs

    But why did I lose it
    Why did they take it
    From me
    From my neighbors
    Just because we are not them

    We aren't wrong
    We may not be perfect
    But imperfection is human

    Now I lay here
    Splintered and broken
    The marks of man

    Because I was born
    Born under the eyes of a different god
  • Twist Off The Stem by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-05-17 15:15:43
    Under the tree
    After the fall
    We don't see
    Half of it all

    Count all the leaves
    Count all the colors
    Count them with me
    As we become covered

    Tell your friends you aren't only human
    You've seen the lights and you've walked up to them
    Tell her your dreams and share all your secrets
    Tell him you can't believe he don't see it

    You know what’s wrong
    And I know what’s right
    Fate can't be called
    But you might as well try

    The future of two
    The counters in winter
    Waiting for June
    To receive an answer

    Can we take leaves
    After they’ve fallen?
    Put them on the tree
    Mix them with pollen

    Out with the old
    And in with the older
    We can’t be told
    That it will get colder

    Tell your friends you aren't only human
    You've seen the lights and you've walked up to them
    Tell her your dreams and share all your secrets
    Tell him you can't believe he don't see it

    Take a bite out of the largest apple
    The climb may be long, but it’s well worth the hassle
    Twist off the stem, name off some letters
    Wish for a moment when it will get better

    Tell your friends you aren’t only human
    You’ve seen the lights and you’ve walked up to them
  • This Town Of Mine by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-05-15 23:31:20
    This town
    It’s not on the map
    It’s lost under the pavement
    Of the new generation

    This town
    It’s not extraordinary
    It’s small and it’s simple
    But it’s the heart of it all

    You pass it by everyday
    On your way to where your eyes lead you
    You overlook this town
    Because it doesn’t shine and steal your view

    This town
    It has it all
    A wooden heart
    And a soul of stone

    This town
    It gets older every day
    And nothing’s gonna change
    Not in this town

    You pass it by everyday
    On your way to where your eyes lead you
    You overlook this town
    Because it doesn’t shine and steal your view

    If you drove through this town
    You may like what you see

    In this town
  • Desperate For Another by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-05-15 21:46:45
    Well there it is
    Your hands are shaking
    The body’s warm
    But your mind is cold

    You never thought
    That you’d be taken in
    By something so sweet
    A story so old

    There you are
    Covered up
    Lying bare-foot on the rug

    Oh, and don’t forget about your heart
    You know, the one you stole so graciously

    You’re quite the connoisseur of it all
    Maybe, if you knew what the hell you were doing

    So now you’re desperate for another glass of wine
    Repression soaking up your mind

    Monday Morning
    Memories
    Calling you through the breeze

    Shh, I can hear the whisper
    Of your voice
    You hear it too?
    It’s coming from the room
    Never used since you abandoned your bliss

    Won’t you come home
    To your sheltered stage
    Your gown of white
    Well, a darker shade

    You’re not here anymore
    Not in reality
    The voices are crying
    "Come home to me"

    Oh, they are crying for you
    Answer
    I know you hear their scream

    ---------
    What it's about - -

    I guess.... A person with a severe case of Multiple Personality, or some kind of Psychiatric Disorder where her mind changes completely, and now she is insane.
    Yeah, because she switches between personalities a bit.
    That's basically the surface of the lyrics.

    If you noticed, I used one of my Journal Titles in there.. "Monday Morning Memories" Yea, Allusions!!!
  • Ay Ay Ay (The Mariachi Band) by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-05-10 22:01:32
    I was playing my guitar yesterday
    Down on the corner of the Café Ole
    A man came up, “Hola, Mi Amigo!” he cried
    “Would you like to be in my band tonight?”

    How could I say no
    I’m all he could find
    But the music isn’t quite what I had in mind

    Tomorrow is coming just as slow as it can
    ‘Cause I’m stuck playing in this Mariachi Band

    Ay, Ay, Ay, why did I comply
    I have to wear this strange disguise
    A big ol’ moustache down to my chin
    And these weird clothes matching the mood I’m in

    Arriba, Arriba, come here Senorita
    I’ll play you a song just like my Padres did
    No sé comer una tortilla
    I have no idea what I just said

    So Jose made us churros after our first show
    Down at the mall, in front of Pet Co
    I danced with Juanita down the gravel street
    Until the rats got in the way of our tapping feet

    I never thought this is what you’d hear
    But I can’t truly say “I really hate it here”

    Ay, Ay, Ay, why did I comply
    I have to wear this strange disguise
    A big ol’ moustache down to my chin
    And these weird clothes matching the mood I’m in

    Arriba, Arriba, come here Senorita
    I’ll play you a song just like my Padres did
    No sé comer una tortilla
    I have no idea what I just said

    Now I play my guitar every day
    Down at the corner of the Café Ole

    -------

    No sé comer una tortilla
    I dont know if that is accurate
    It is suppose to say "I don't know how to eat a tortilla"
    But idk if its right, i might change it, maybe make it goofier.

    The downsides of taking French class, not Spanish class... I couldn't care less
  • C'est La Vie Dans La Ville by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-05-10 16:14:28
    Carry her on
    In a place without
    Stained glass windows
    Or a country house

    No front porch swings
    In a summer breeze
    No grass to see
    Off the balcony

    Everyone’s walking
    In their concrete shoes
    Can’t travel on
    Through the scenic route

    Nothing to see
    In the midnight sky
    Nothing to feel
    When the wind blows by

    Dreams of cotton
    Painted in green
    They aren’t forgotten
    When they can’t be reached

    Walking down a one way avenue
    We’ve gone too far
    And we can’t get out

    No, we can’t get out
    We’ve walked too far
    Down this one way avenue
  • The Moon Is Ours by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-05-09 20:56:03
    I wish I could mold her in my own way
    A perfect orange sunrise to start the day
    And a whistle from the blue birds, soft and Heaven-made
    We could all use perfection every once in a little while

    The grass would be green, the flowers all bloomed
    I could meet you there, at the park, by noon
    And we will wait, wait for the moon
    To rise above us, so we can steal it from the sky

    Take it under your arm
    Don't let it slip away
    It'll be ours until we let go
    So keep it safe
    Lock it up
    Polish it
    So it doesn't lose its glow

    I think we'll be fine if we keep in mind
    The moon is ours tonight
    Tonight

    Even if I lost my grip, and the clouds started to rain
    We could dance it off, we don’t need to run away
    Because I don’t want to lose my smile today
    And your smile, I think it should stay

    We don’t need to stay inside
    We don’t have to keep from the night
    Take out the moon, let it shine
    Let it shine up to the sky

    Take it under your arm
    Don't let it slip away
    It'll be ours until we let go
    So keep it safe
    Lock it up
    Polish it
    So it doesn't lose its glow

    I think we'll be fine if we keep in mind
    The moon is ours tonight
    Tonight

    So take it all tonight
    The moon is ours tonight
    Tonight
    Tonight
  • Tired Cry by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-04-15 15:33:21
    We walk a fragile road
    But I know I’m safe when you’re with me
    There’s nothing I can’t be

    Holding on, holding tight
    We can’t fall down without a fight
    And I know tomorrow you’ll be better
    ‘Cause I promise we’ll be here together

    Come along, I’ll take you home
    Nothings wrong, we’re all alone
    Lay down beneath the withered sky
    Everything will be alright

    A tired cry
    Middle of the night
    I know
    There’s nothing I can do
    When those sea blue eyes fall down

    Lying here next to you
    And the morning, it’s calling our name
    We will never be the same

    A subtle laugh behind the sigh
    You can’t help but show a smile
    Stronger now than ever before
    And I know by your knock on my door*

    Crowded in, emptied out
    We got rid of all our doubt
    And I know I feel fine
    With your hands holding mine

    And a tired cry
    Middle of the night
    I know
    There's nothing I can do
    When those sea blue eyes fall down

    When those sea blue eyes fall down

    *Was originally "And I know from our clothes on my floor"
    But if im going to post it while someone I know reads it [Mainly, Mom], I'd rather them read the first one. Plus I think it makes more sence, with the door.
  • The Gravel by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-03-29 20:08:27
    I’ve walked this road before
    And I know what lies ahead
    Take my hand
    Close your eyes
    Hold on tight
    Ignore the glares that follow
    And the words they throw our way
    As for now
    Push them aside

    They are only paupers
    They won’t surrender as long as your footsteps match mine
    We have what they want
    But we cannot give it
    So they’ll tear us apart
    Until our steps and the march of the caviler intertwine
    And we become our enemy
    Ridding ourselves of the words we caught
    As we try to make it out

    But I am ready and willing to make this thing last
    And if you want to make it through
    Take my hand
    Close your eyes
    Hold on tight
    It takes two to make it past
    Any minute now they will tire
    And this road will become bright

    The gravel that once pierced our feet
    Has been washed away
    And now we walk on water
    Our shadows dance in the ripples of the moonlight
    A new chapter in our life has begun
    Take my hand
    Close your eyes
    Hold on tight
    As we sail away into the rising sun
  • When The World Fell Apart by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-03-28 20:17:04
    If today was our last day alive
    Would you say you love me?
    Could you look me in the eye?

    If tomorrow never arrives, never arrives
    Would you stay here with me?
    Would you be right there by my side?

    If the sky was falling down upon the world
    Would you be happy knowing you're the girl
    The girl in my arms
    When the world fell apart

    And how would you feel in my arms
    Would you be alright there?
    Would my love keep you warm?

    And when thoughts of me and you cross your mind
    Do your eyes light up,
    Light up like the Fourth of July?

    As the explosions in the sky shake the ground
    And you and I are the only two around
    Would it be okay
    That it’s only me today?

    If today was our last day alive
    Would you say you love me?
    Or would this be our goodbye?
  • Why Isn't It Raining? by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-03-28 19:28:50
    I woke up to the smell of faded amour
    All that’s left from the nights before

    It won’t be there for too long
    Just the smoke from the last flame of a candle
    Rising before its gone

    Loneliness isn’t something I’m used to
    Though, loneliness is something I have

    But why isn’t it raining?
    Why doesn’t it hurt so bad?
    What did we say
    To make it go away,
    And take all that we had?

    Why isn’t the sun
    So afraid to rise
    And give me my breath?
    This should be the death
    Of the light carried on in my eyes

    I’m looking off the top of a bridge
    And all I can see is the moonlight
    A smile passes my face
    From the simplicity of the sight

    But that’s all that’s on my mind
    I’ve forgotten something I cannot find
    It’s been torn from my memory
    Carelessly left behind

    So why isn’t it raining?
    Why doesn’t it hurt so bad?
    What did we say
    To make it go away
    And take all that we had?

    Why isn’t the sun
    So afraid to rise
    And give me my breath?
    This should be the death
    Of the light carried on in my eyes

    Where did it go?
    What happened to the things we knew
    And the life I’ve grown so used to
  • Everything Would Come Around by Cest-La-Vie at 2009-03-28 15:56:09
    I've been thinking... SongMeanings.com.... must have to do with Songs and their meanings. Most all of my journals don't have to do with songs.. so why is my journal Here.?
    I figured I would post Poems/Lyrics i've written
    So heres my latest.


    I’ve been counting up the days
    Since I last saw your face
    I lost track

    Nothing’s been the same
    Now that we’ve changed
    I tried to call
    I tried to call it all back

    I can’t believe that I ever believed
    Everything would come around
    And a big part of me seems to be
    Broken
    Scattered on the ground

    And no matter how hard I try
    To find these missing pieces
    I only get colder

    I know they were there
    I remember them well
    I wish I knew where they’ve gone
    Where have they gone?

    Remember when you smiled
    And I wasn’t so shy
    Don’t you remember it all?

    There’s something special about the past
    You can’t get it back
    You can’t fix the fall

    I’ve lost my hold
    You’ve slipped away
    Won’t you come back to me?
    Can’t you come back?
    ------------------------------------

    There's no chorus... Most all the lyrics don't have chorus'
    I have problems writing them.. idk, i guess I don't like repeating myself, and chorus' need to be really good to repeat yourself.
    *Just thought I would share that bit about my style.*
  • Wrong Again by Cest-La-Vie at 2008-11-15 15:51:49

    Ok, well I was reading my myspace blogs and read a parody i wrote, and i thought I'd post it on here.  It's a parody of Wrong Again by Martina McBride.

    On the internet
    When I am upset
    With my peers
    When things don’t go my way
    Just like every day
    I come here

    And now I’m so glad I’ve finally found
    Something to help me expound
    On all of my problems, and then
    I’ll put all my heart and thought into
    These stories of the secret truth
    And how this pain will never end
    Blog again

    Everybody knows
    Misery and woe
    And hard time
    But if you know me

    You know that I need
    To complain online

    And all day this will be what I do
    I’ll tell my problems to you
    As long as you read them
    You will learn a lot about my night
    My crappy day and useless life
    And how I don’t have any friends
    Blog again

    And it seems to me this pain won’t pass
    I’ve lost all hope for happiness
    I wish they would just make amends
    Well as for now, I am done
    I’ll let you go and have your fun
    I will update when the day ends
    Blog again
    Blog again
