My Thoughts & Songs

"To dream the impossible dream,
To fight the unbeatable foe,
To bear with unbearable sorrow,
And to run where the brave dare not go...
To right the unrightable wrong,
And to love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary,
To reach the unreachable star...
This is my quest:
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless,
No matter how far,
To fight for the right
Without question or pause...
To be willing to march,
march into hell
For that heavenly cause...
And I know
If I'll only be true,
To this glorious quest
That my heart
Will lie peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest
And the world will be
better for this...
That one man, scorned
and covered with scars,
Still strove with his last
ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable,
the unreachable,
The unreachable star
And I'll always dream
The impossible dream
Yes, and I'll reach
The unreachable star..."


/Luther Vandross/

"This time, I'll be sailing...
No more bailing boats for me.
I'll be out there on the sea -
Just my confidence and me.

And I'll be awful sometimes,
Weakened to my knees...
But I'll learn to get by,
On little victories...

This time, I'll have no fear;
I'll be standing strong and tall,
Turn my back towards them all...

And I'll be awful sometimes,
Weakened to my knees,
And I'll learn to get by,
On the little victories...
And if the world decides to catch up with me:
It's a little victorie... "

/M.Nathanson/Little victories/ 

 
"If I bent like you said was best
Would that change a thing?
If I spent myself 'till nothing's left
Would you still leave me here?

You're so sorry about it all
Now that it's over
Should i thank you for that dear?
You're so sorry about it all
And I hope you'll always be

I remember you best
Hating all the boys who got to you
And all the things they took
That you'd kept for yourself
Every car crash, every misstep, every word

You're so sorry about it all
Now that it's over
Should I thank you for that dear?
You're so sorry about it all
And I hope you'll always be
Always be

I remember you best
Hating all the boys who got to you
And all the things they took from you again
It's all wrong, it's all wrong

You're so sorry about it all
Now that it's over
Should I thank you for that dear?
You're so sorry about it all
And I hope you'll always be
Always be

Good night, farewell
Is this everything you wanted?
Is this everything you wanted?

Good night, farewell
Is this everything you wanted?
Is this everything you wanted now?"


/Matt Nathanson/Bent

" I could bless the water,
But it wouldnt turn to wine;
Paint a picture of the sunset,
Hanging there in your eyes,
But it'd just be some compromise...

I could write a million verses,
Every word youve heard before
Steal some of dylans best,
But it'd leave me wanting to say more!...
Cause theres so much more...

If you could love somone like me,
Theres no end to the possibility...
Hopes and dreams push away the pain and regret
But loving you just lets me know:
There might be hope for me yet.
Hope for me yet...

Sometimes when I look back,
I dont even know myself...
It blows my mind to think that ive found grace in someone else - 
Your grace is something else...

For a man whos done nothing,
I've been blessed with so much more than i deserve!
I'm smart enough to know that ive been handed something,
Can't put a price on what its worth!...

If you could love somone like me,
Theres no end to the possibility...
Hopes and dreams push away the pain and regret
But loving you just lets me know:
There might be hope for me yet.
Hope for me yet..."
