Lyrics ...

Too Close for Comfort - McFly

I never meant the things I said
To make you cry
Can I say I'm sorry

It's hard to forget

And yes I regret
All these mistakes
I don't know why you're leaving Me
But I know you must have your reasons
There's tears in your eyes
I watch as you cry
But it's getting late

Was I invading in on your secrets
Was I too close for comfort
You're pushing me out
When I'm wanting in
What was I just about to discover
When I got too close for comfort
Driving you home
Guess I'll never know

Remember when we scratched our names into the sand
And told me you loved me
But now that I find
That you've changed your mind
I'm lost for words
And everything I feel for you
I wrote down on one piece of paper
The one in your hand
You won't understand
How much it hurts to let you go

Was I invading in on your secrets
Was I too close for comfort
You're pushing me out
When I'm wanting in
What was I just about to discover
I got too close for comfort
Driving you home
Guess I'll never know

All this time you've been telling me lies
Hidden in bags that are under your eyes
And when I asked you I knew I was right

But if you turn your back on me now
When I need you most
But you chose to let me down

Won't you think about what you're about to do to me
And back down...

Was I invading in on your secrets
Was I too close for comfort
You're pushing me out
When I'm wanting in
What was I just about to discover
I got too close for comfort
You're pushing me out
When I'm wanting in
(Yeh yeh yeh)

What was I just about to discover
When I got too close for comfort
Driving you home
I guess I'll never know...

All About You - McFly

It's all about you
(It's about you)
It's all about you, baby
(It's all about you)
It's all about you
(It's about you)
It's all about you

Yesterday, you asked me something I thought you knew.
So I told you with a smile 'It's all about you'
Then you whispered in my ear and you told me too,
Say 'If you make my life worthwhile, it's all about you'


And I would answer all you're wishes, if you asked me to.
But if you deny me one of your kisses, don't know what I'd do.
So hold me close and say three words, like you used to do.
Dancing on the kitchen tiles, it's all about you.
Yeah...

And I would answer all you're wishes, if you asked me to.
But if you deny me one of your kisses, don't know what I'd do.
So hold me close and say three words, like you used to do.
Dancing on the kitchen tiles,
Yes you make my life worthwhile,
So I told you with a smile...
It's all about you.

It's all about you
(It's about you)
It's all about you, baby
(It's all about you)
It's all about you
(It's about you)
It's all about you

War on Terror...

     So, this whole thing on pulling out of Iraq is really starting to piss me off.  Why the HELL would you want to pull out of the war this far into it?  Then, all of the lives lost would have been for nothing.  What kind of message do we want to send to the terrorists?  That we're weak and want to surrender?  After 9/11 everyone was so pumped up about comming back stronger than ever and showing them that we will NOT back down.  So, was that just a phase? Has everyone had their time of grieving and given up?  Those lives that were lost that day and in the bombing of 1993 are quickly fading everyones minds and I think it shows that as Americans, we are to lazy to stand up for what we know is right.
     Imagine all of the problems that pulling out of this war will cause.  You have muslim extremists over there who will stop at nothing to avenge the power of Allah.  Their mentality is that all non-believers should be demolished.  Acts like 9/11 and the bombing in '93 only give the handful of extremists the encouragement and the support to go through with what ever sick plan they may have come up with.  This far into this thing, pulling out shouldn't even be an option.
     How can we try to fix another country's government when ours has conflict within itself?  I think that's part of the reason we're in this mess to begin with.  The U.S just can't keep to themselves. Please remind me why we have had soldiers stationed in Iraq since Vietnam.  If we would just mind our own business, chances are that we would be a lot safer as a country than we are. 
     I honestly don't think that anything with this war will change until there is a change in leadership.  I'm not saying that I don't support Bush because I back him 110%.  But, I think that he is just feeding off of information that the people under him have.  He's so focused on winning this war that I don't think anything will change until November of '08.  The only thing I don't want to see is everyone starting to forget the pain we all felt the day those towers fell.  Here is a song by Daryll Worley that really says what I think all Americans need to hear.  It's a reminder of all of the emotions we went through the day we were attacked.

Have You Forgotten? - Daryll Worley

I hear people sayin'. We Don't need this war.
I say there's some things worth fightin' for.
What about our freedom, and this piece of ground?
We didn't get to keep 'em by backin' down.
They say we don't realize the mess we're gettin' in
Before you start preachin' let me ask you this my friend.

Have you forgotten, how it felt that day?
To see your homeland under fire
And her people blown away
Have you forgotten, when those towers fell
We had neighbors still inside goin through a livin hell
And you say we shouldn't worry bout Bin Laden
Have you forgotten?

You took all the footage off my T.V.
Said it's too disturbin for you and me
It'll just breed anger is what the experts say
If it was up to me I'd show it everyday
Some say this country just out lookin' for a fight
Well after 9/11 man I'd have to say that's right.


Have you forgotten, how it felt that day?
To see your homeland under fire
And her people blown away
Have you forgotten when those towers fell
We had neighbors still inside goin' through a livin' hell
And we vow to get the ones behind Bin Laden
Have you forgotten?

I've been there with the soldiers
Who've gone away to war
you can bet they remember just what they're fightin' for

Have you forgotten
All the people killed
Yes some went down like heroes
In that Pennsylvania field
Have you forgotten
About our Pentagon
All the loved ones that we lost
And those left to carry on
Don't you tell me not to worry 'bout Bin Laden
Have you forgotten?

Let Me Fall - Josh Groban

Problem Solved...

     So, I think I figured out what's wrong with me.  Do you ever get the feeling that everything you have is slowly getting taken away from you?  The happiness you once had is drifting away, the smiles that used to consume your day are now few and far between?  I think that's what happened to me.  But here's where I think I went wrong.  I think I started to hold on to those things I felt I was losing a little too tightly.  It's like holding a pile of sand.  When it's just sitting there loosely in your hand, it's perfectly stable.  But, as soon as you tighten your grip, all of the sand falls through your fingers.
     I was so afraid of losing the relationships that I had built that I held on too tightly ultimately forcing them to fall apart.  I was always thinking ...I don't know if it was directed towards God or not ...please, don't take this away from me.  Please, don't let the best time of my life slip away.  Part of me wonders if I took those people or things for granted ...if I got a little too used to everything comming easy for me.  All I know is that it's time for a change.  I don't know what kind of change and I don't know how to change it but I know something's gotta give.

Falling Away ...

     I have steadily seemed to fall away from the lord.  There's no excuse other than I'm weak.  I need the will to regain my relationship with God.  He's done his part ...now it's up to me.  I don't like the girl I've become and I refuse to be her any longer. 

Who have I become?- Me ...don't laugh.

She looks in the mirror at the girl she's become.
Tear stained cheeks and shattered dreams
Make up what's left of her broken spirit.
Oh, what have I become?

Who am I now?
My thoughts so scattered, so empty.
Who have I turned into?
I can't seem to face my reflection.

Broken pride, empty eyes.
No light left in her smile.
So much pain, so much hurt.
My strength is fading fast.

Who is this girl,
That has taken over me?
Who have I become?
My enemy is my soul companion.

I'm falling on my knees,
Asking you to save what's left of me.
Please rekindle the fire in this broken life
And rescue me from the nothing I have faded into.
