Drenched in vanilla twilight...

I fell hard for this song over Spring Break. My last Spring Break. Thinking a lot, I guess.

"But drenched in vanilla twilight
I'll sit on the front porch all night,
Waist deep in thought because when I think of you
I don't feel so alone..."

"And I'll forget the world that I knew,
But I swear I won't forget you..."

- Owl City

I am still painting flowers for you...

This is a song by one of my favorite bands in the whole world and I hadn't heard it until last night when my best friend sent it to me. Since then, I have listened to it approximately 3485093485304958 times. And these lyrics make me smile and make me feel better about life.

"I want to see your face and know I made it home..."

- All Time Low

For Katharine...

Because this is our song, of course. For serenading me in Acme.

"We had it all in front of us
You were the one
I was in love
But you always hurt
The one you lost
I couldn't get enough

You were everything
That's bad for me
Make no apologies
I'm crushed....
Black and blue
But you know
I'd do it all again for you..."

- We The Kings

I'm just crushed without you in the LLC, you know. Which is why I am listening to GrooveShark and posting excessive numbers of blog posts, obviously.

This is fitting...

That this is the 100th post on this blog. This is a song that I have absolutely fallen for in the past few weeks. Unfortunately, it's much more about the vocals than it is about the lyrics, but I'm attached to the lyrics too. As much as I don't want to admit a connection to them being that they're so sad. But it's true.

"I made a mess of things
The stops and in betweens
They weigh me down
You got someone new singing you your songs now

Sooner surrender
Then watch the last wall collapse
And sooner surrender
And our love will count for everything..."

- Matt Nathanson

This came up on my Pandora tonight...

And the lyrics just broke me down. They're not a band I really enjoy, but this is just beautiful.

"I miss all the little things,
I never thought that they'd mean everything to me..."

"So far away from where you are
These miles have torn us worlds apart
And I miss you..."

- Lifehouse
