pianissimo

I have discovered the most incredible thing. Friday, sitting at a piano with my discman, I was able to listen to a song and actually figure out how to play it. I haven't been playing since I quit my classes in like grade 9, since then all I did was learn Konstantine.
But now, I know two Straylight Run songs :) It makes me soooo happy!

I love to play songs that I love...
Right now, I know "It's for the best" and "Existentialism on Prom Night".

Here are the lyrics:
Straylight Run - It's For the Best

and it takes more time than i've ever had
drains the life from me
makes me want to forget
as young as i was, i felt older back then
more disciplined, stronger and certain

but i was scared to death of eternity
i was saved by grace
but destroyed by naivety
and i lied to myself
and said it was for the best

so now faith is replaced with a logic so cold
i've disregarded what i was
now that i'm older
and i know much more than i did back then
but the more i learn
the more i can't understand

and i've become content with this life that i lead
where i drink to much and don't believe in much of anything
and i lie to myself
and say "it's for the best."

we're moving forward, but holding ourselves back
and we're waiting on something that will never come


Straylight Run > Existentialism on Prom Night

when the sun came up
we were sleeping in
sunk inside our blankets
sprawled across the bed
and we were dreaming

there are moments when i know it
and the world revolves around us
and we're keeping it
keeping it all going
this delicate balance
vulnerable
all knowing

(sing like you think no one's listening)

you would kill for this
just a little bit

so, sing me something soft
sad and delicate
or loud and out of key
sing me anything
we're glad for what we've got
done with what we've lost
our whole lives laid out right in front of us
