In my head right now...

Yeah, most of the time I listen to the radio station and hear a bunch of pop crap. This song has been spinning for a little while now and it never really sank into my head until today. "The vein I keep on closing... you cut me open..." That just resonates. *shrug*

"Closed off from love
I didn't need the pain
Once or twice was enough
And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass
Before you know it you're frozen

But something happened
For the very first time with you
My heart melts into the ground
Found something true
And everyone's looking round
Thinking I'm going crazy

But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

Trying hard not to hear
But they talk so loud
Their piercing sounds fill my ears
Try to fill me with doubt
Yet I know that the goal
Is to keep me from falling

But nothing's greater
Than the rush that comes with your embrace
And in this world of loneliness
I see your face
Yet everyone around me
Thinks that I'm going crazy, maybe, maybe

But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

And it's draining all of me
Oh they find it hard to believe
I'll be wearing these scars
For everyone to see

I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open and I
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love"

(Leona Lewis, "Bleeding Love.")

who are you?

and what have you done to Z? just kidding, shit happens to me once in a blue moon. Right now its an old Rod Stewart song, that I heard the other day. Keep in mind for the most part its country or rock for me. However the song fits what I did.

Powerful..

It's funny how you can hear a song a million times and then one day you hear the song...you feel it...you understand it. I've never heard your song, but the lyrics hit deep.

Heh. You too?

I too have a song that keeps running through my head lately. And it is even in the same ballpark. *queue Twilight Zone music*

These lyrics in particular:

Where do I take this pain of mine
I run but it stays right by my side

So tear me open and pour me out
There's things inside that scream and shout
And the pain still hates me
So hold me until it sleeps

Just like the curse, just like the stray
You feed it once and now it stays
Now it stays

So tear me open but beware
There's things inside without a care
And the dirt still stains me
So wash me until I'm clean

It grips you so hold me
It stains you so hold me
It hates you so hold me
It holds you so hold me
Until it sleeps.

Metallica (of course) "Until it Sleeps" I know the back story of why James wrote this one, but it still speaks to me differently than why he actually wrote it. He sees my interpretation clearly too and even sees MY perspective now more than why he wrote it in the first place.
