Grey Street by Dave Matthews Band

I've been listening to the Dave Matthews Band on pandora a lot these day. This song says so much! I love to listen to it loud! "She feels like kicking out all the windows, And setting fire to this life, She could change everything about her, Using colors bold and bright!!!"

Oh look at how she listens
She says nothing of what she thinks
She just goes stumbling through her memories
Staring out onto Grey Street
But she thinks hey
How did I come to this
I dreamed myself a million times around the world
But I can't get out of this place

Oh, there's a loneliness inside her
And she'd do anything to fill it in
But all the colors mix together
To grey, and it breaks her heart

Oh how she wishes it was different
She prays to God most every night
And though she swears he doesn't listen
There's still a hope in her he might
She says I pray
But my prayers all fall on deaf ears
Am I supposed to take it on myself
To get out of this place

Oh there's a emptiness inside her
And she'd do anything to fill it in
And though it's red blood bleeding from her now,
It feels like cold blue ice in her heart
When all the colors mix together
To grey, and it breaks her heart

There's a stranger speaks outside her door
Says take what you can from your dreams
Make them as real as anything
Oh it'd take the work out of the courage
But she says please
There's a crazy man that's creeping outside my door
I live on the corner of Grey Street
And the end of the world

Oh there's an emptiness inside her
And she'd do anything to fill it in
And though it's red blood bleeding from her now,
It's more like cold blue ice in her heart
She feels like kicking out all the windows
And setting fire to this life
She could change everything about her
Using colors bold and bright
But all the colors mix together
To grey, and it breaks her heart
Oh it breaks her heart
To grey

Lost In My Mind by The Head and the Heart

I am absolutely loving this song! It's been played one too many times the past couple of days:) And I'm totally belting it out! "You're already home where you feel loved..."

Put your dreams away for now
I won't see you for some time
I am lost in my mind
I get lost in my mind

Momma once told me
You're already home where you feel loved
I am lost in my mind
I get lost in my mind

Oh my brother
Your wisdom is older than me
Oh my brother
Don't you worry 'bout me!!!!!!!!!!

Don't you worry
Don't you worry, don't worry about me

How's that bricklayin' comin'?
How's your engine runnin'?
Is that bridge gettin' built?
Are your hands gettin' filled?
Won't you tell me, my brother?

'Cause there are stars
Up above

We can start
Moving forward

How's that bricklayin' comin'?
How's your engine runnin'?
Is that bridge gettin' built?
Are your hands gettin' filled?
Won't you tell me, my brother?

'Cause there are stars
Up above

We can start
Moving forward

Lost in my mind
Lost in my mind
Oh I get lost in my mind
Lost, I get lost

I get lost in my mind
Lost in my mind
Yes I get lost in my mind,
Lost, I get lost
I get lost

Oh I get lost

Oh I get...

Rise by Eddie Vedder

Perfect Sunday funday music on a beautiful Fall day! "Gonna rise up, find my direction magnetically..."

Such is the way of the world
You can never know
Just where to put all your faith
And how will it grow?

Gonna rise up 
Burning black holes in dark memories
Gonna rise up
Turning mistakes into gold...

Such is the passage of time
Too fast to fold
Suddenly swallowed by signs
Low and behold

Gonna rise up
Find my direction magnetically
Gonna rise up
Throw down my ace in the hole

Bird Song by the Grateful Dead

Perfect cold weather morning music! "Laugh in the sunshine, Sing, Cry in the dark, Fly through the night..."

All I know is something like a bird within her sang 
All I know she sang a little while and then flew on

Tell me all that you know
I'll show you
Snow and rain

If you hear that same sweet song again, will you know why?
Anyone who sings a tune so sweet is passing by

Laugh in the sunshine
Sing, cry in the dark
Fly through the night

Don't cry now
Don't you cry
Don't you cry any more
La da da da

Sleep in the stars
Don't you cry
Dry your eyes on the wind
La da da da da da

All I know is something like a bird within her sang
All I know she sang a little while and then flew on

Tell me all that you know
I'll show you
Snow and rain

Like a Stone by Chris Cornell

Love this version of this song! "In your house, I long to be, Room by room patiently, I'll wait for you there, like a stone..."

On a cob web afternoon,
In a room full of emptiness
By a freeway I confess
I was lost in the pages of a book full of death;
Reading how we'll die alone.
And if we're good we'll lay to rest,
Anywhere we want to go.

In your house I long to be;
Room by room patiently,
I'll wait for you there like a stone.
I'll wait for you there alone.

And on my deathbed I will pray to the gods and the angels,
Like a pagan to anyone who will take me to heaven;
To a place I recall, I was there so long ago.
The sky was bruised, the wine was bled, and there you led me on.

In your house I long to be;
Room by room, patiently,
I'll wait for you there like a stone.
I'll wait for you there alone, alone.

And on I read until the day was gone;
And I sat in regret of all the things I've done;
For all that I've blessed, and all that I've wronged.
In dreams until my death I will wander on.

In your house I long to be;
Room by room, patiently,
I'll wait for you there like a stone.
I'll wait for you there alone, alone.
