won't you remember when the walls came down? you were stuck on the ground, leaving nothing but a pale blue sky. oh and you wondered what your life really was, is it worth it to try and make it through without the light? and you asked all the birds and the planes that you see, is it better to fly away when things get hard? waiting for answers day after day, oh but does it really make a difference what they say? .

like a riot, like a riot, oh!


Happy New Years everyone! Hope everyone had a great night.
I think it was pretty successful. I had my first new years kiss with the love of my life, had an amazing time with my best friends, and passed out at the end of the night, exhausted. All in all, I am quite pleased with how it all went down.

Again, Happy 2010 everyone!

Stay chill, mad love.

something ignites

I've had livejournal for a while now, but I figured it was time to finally move up to blogspot. So here I am. I'll still use livejournal for more personal things but I like the idea of blogspot too.

I wrote some lyrics a few months ago and blogged about how much I loved them. Originally I had put piano and guitar to them but today I was playing around on my guitar and found a chord progression that I loved. I tried putting some lyrics I had to it but they didn't feel right. I figured why not try those old lyrics that went to piano. They fit perfectly. Screw the old piano I had because this may be my new favourite original. I'll maybe make a video and put it on my youtube, but we'll see. Here are some of the lyrics:

Aren't we all
Just trying to grow tall and move on
Let our love bloom with red intuition
We can only pray it never fades away

She's so sure
And i know she's never done this before
Her wide-eyed beauty says
Something is alright darling
I would die just to trust all her words
Feel them grow in my heart and my soul
Just to say something is alright
Now

I'm really excited about them. The music is really simple but I think that's why I like it. It leaves room for more power in the vocals.

Hope everyone has a fantastic, safe, new years.

Mad love,
lil' J
