(Nice to Meet You) Anyway

I don't want to get too close
I don't want to get too close
You see this isn't where my head is
If you knew me, I'm not like this
But I just found someone special
and that's really something special
if you knew me
Nice to meet you anyway

I believe you're very fine
Still I haven't got the time
Cause I just found someone special
and that's really something special
if you knew me
Nice to meet you anyway

And the sky opened up
With the soil of the sun
Dreaming of... my true love

I don't mean to be so strange
But my life just took a change
Cause I just found someone special
and that's really something special
if you knew me
Nice to meet you anyway

And the sky opened up
With the soil of the sun
Dreaming of... my true love

So before this goes too far
Let me tell you what you are
You're amazing, I'm attracted
But I'm terribly distracted
And I'm trying to be verbal
And I'm back into this circle
Cause I just found someone special
and that's really something special
if you knew me
Nice to meet you
Nice to meet you
Nice to meet you anyway (x4)

Even if you want me to stay here
(Nice to meet you, Nice to meet you)
I'm tellin' you right now I can leave
(Nice to meet you, Nice to meet you)
Before I get to changing my mind here
(Nice to meet you, Nice to meet you anyway...)
I hope you understand what I mean
I hope you understand what I mean
I hope you understand what I mean...

The Fear You Won't Fall

Diggin' a hole and the walls are caving in...
behind me.
Air's gettin' thin but I'm trying, I'm breathing in.
Come find me.

It hasn't felt like this before.
It hasn't felt like home... before you.

And I know it's easy to say,
but it's harder to feel... this way,
And I miss you more than I should,
than I thought I could,
can't get my mind off of you.

I know you're scared that I'll soon be over it.
That's part of it all.
Part of the beauty of falling in love with you,
is the fear you won't fall.

It hasn't felt like this before...
It hasn't felt like home... before you.

And I know it's easy to say,
but it's harder to feel... this way.
And I miss you more than I should,
than I thought I could,
can't get my mind off of you.

And I hate the phone,
but I wish you'd call.
Thought being alone....
was better than, was better than...

And I know it's easy to say,
but its harder to feel... this way.
And I miss you more than I should,
than I thought I could,
can't get my mind off of you.

Can't get my mind off of you.

And I know it's easy to say,
but its harder to feel... this way.
And I miss you more than I should,
than I thought I could,
can't get my mind off of you.

And I know it's easy to say,
but it's harder to feel... this way.

The Sound of Settling

This is not what I want... but sometimes it's how I feel.

I've got a hunger...
twisting my stomach into knots
that my tongue was tied off.

My brain's repeating,
if you've got an impulse let it out
but they never make it past my mouth.

Ba ba (ba ba)
This is the sound of settling
Ba ba, ba ba
x2

Are you this fleeting?
Old age is just around the bend,
I can't wait to look grey.

And I'll sit and wonder...
of every love that could have been,
if I only thought of something charming to say.

Ba ba, (ba ba)
This is the sound of settling
Ba ba, ba ba
x4

I've got a hunger...
twisting my stomach into knots.

My Best Friend

This is to my best friend, my hot artichoke maple angel fluff ....

When everything is wrong I'll come talk to you
You make things alright when I'm feeling blue

You are such a blessing and I won't be messing
with the one thing that brings light to all my darkness

You're my best friend
and I love you,
and I love you
Yes I do

There is no other one who can take your place
I feel happy inside when I see your face
I hope you believe me
'Cause I speak sincerely
and I mean it when I tell you that I need you

You're my best friend
and I love you,
and I love you
Yes I do

I'm here right beside you
I will never leave you
and I feel the pain you feel when you start crying

You're my best friend
and I love you,
and I love you
Yes I do

You're my best friend
and I love you,
and I love you
Yes I do
Yes I do...

Yes I do

-Weezer

Coming To Terms

These are lyrics I wish I'd found a long time ago.

Oh no, it’s not me
I just forgot... to tell you
Didn’t mean, it seems obscene
We just lost track.. along the way

I’m coming to terms
I’m starting to learn
This ain’t all it’s cracked up to be
’Cause I’m using you, you’re using me
It’s never as easy as we believe

’Cause this hurts, I can’t leave
I understand... but can you
I’m just scared, you’re lonely
Everyone knows.. you’re better than me

I’m coming to terms
I’m starting to learn
This ain’t all it’s cracked up to be
’Cause I’m using you, you’re using me
It’s never as easy as we believe

Is this what you need?
Am I what you need?

I’m coming to terms
I’m starting to learn
This ain’t all it’s cracked up to be
’Cause I’m using you, you’re using me
It’s never as easy as we believe

Na na na na…

-Carolina Liar

A Strange Cup of Tea

Sometimes I wake with a weary head
and I wonder how I'll ever get through
Then I think of the things you said
how you told me to my self be true

My faith in things unseen,
My belief that it'll all work out
It may seem like a strange cup of tea,
but if its all right with you,
than it all right with me

On my feet I walk, with my legs I run
In my arms I'll hold another day
With my head I think, from my heart I sing
And with my hand to my face I pray

There's times I feel with the stains of life
I could just turn around, turn around 'n walk away
Then a strength like a beam from above
lifts me up by the hand and it leads me to say...

Good things for good people you see
Good things, they seem to all work out
May seem like a strange cup of tea
But if its all right with you
Well then its all right with me

On my feet I walk, with my legs I run
In my arms I'll hold another day
With my head I think, from my heart I sing
And with my hand to my face I pray

Getting by ain't enough for me
I know what I like, I like what I see
I'm not only flesh and blood but
I'm heart and soul I know

Sometimes I feel at the end of the day
Was it all worth while or have I settled for less?
I sit back and your there by my side
Sincerely you say, "We're both so blessed"

Count your blessings, count them one, two, three
Don't give up cause it'll all work out
It may seem like a strange cup of tea
But if it's all right with you, it's just fine with me

On my feet I walk, with my legs I run
In my arms I'll hold another day
With my head I think, from my heart I sing
And with my hand to my face I pray

Killing Me Too

Lend me your ear, and I'll tell you about the things I fear maybe
Open your heart, and I'll tell you why I'm torn apart, maybe
Lend me your car, and we'll go chase down a falling star
Give me your hand cause it takes that fire to understand, yeah

When was the last time you felt high
Oh you were the best I've ever felt
Cause I don't need you fix me
But I just want you to listen

It's killing, me too
It's so wrong not to be with you
It's getting, harder to stay awake
It's killing, me too
It stops my heart just to be with you
So listen, cause you are the only one who cares to hear

Lend me your time, and we'll go somewhere and kill some wine baby
Show me your soul, and I'll shine my light where it seems so cold now
Give me your lips, and I'll tell you about all the things I miss the most
Open your mind and I'll crawl right up and sleep inside of it

When was the last time you felt high
Oh you were the best I've ever felt
I don't need you fix me
But I just want you to listen

It's killing, me too
It's so wrong not to be with you
It's getting, harder to stay awake
It's killing, me too
It stops my heart just to be with you
So listen, cause you are the only one who cares to hear

(repeat)

To hear me

Do You Want To

So this is actually for a few weeks ago, but I haven't posted in forever and a day so I thought it was worth posting something late rather than never.

When I woke up tonight I said I'm
Gonna make somebody love me
I’m gonna make somebody love me
And now I know, now I know, now I know
I know that it's you
You’re lucky, lucky, you're so lucky

Well do ya, do ya, do ya wanna
Well do ya, do ya, do ya wanna
Wanna go where I never let you before

Well do ya, do ya, do ya wanna
Well do ya, do ya, do ya wanna
Wanna go of what I never let you before

Well he's a friend and he's so proud of ya
He's a friend and I knew him before ya
Oh yeah

Well he's a friend and we're so proud of ya
Your famous friend well I blew him before ya
Oh yeah

Well do ya, do ya, do ya wanna
Well do ya, do ya, do ya wanna
Wanna go where I never let you before

Here we are at the transmission party
I love your friends, they're all so arty
Oh yeah

When I woke up tonight I said I'm
Gonna make somebody love me
I’m gonna make somebody love me
And now I know, now I know, now I know
I know that it's you
You’re lucky, lucky, you're so lucky

Well do ya, do ya, do ya wanna
Well do ya, do ya, do ya wanna
Want a go, of what I never let you before

Lucky, lucky, you're so lucky
Lucky, lucky, you're so lucky
Lucky, lucky, you're so lucky
Lucky, lucky, you're so lucky
Lucky, lucky, you're so lucky
Lucky, lucky, you're so lucky
