Today was a very busy day - which is what all of my days are beginning to feel like. I am desperately looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow.
It's days like today that music keeps me going and relaxes me while I am going full force. One of the many artists which I love to listen to is Pink. I love her raw, tell it like it is lyrics and the raspiness of her voice. There is a song of hers which I have been listening to a lot lately...F**kin' Perfect.
Made a wrong turn, once or twice
Dug my way out, blood and fire
Bad decisions, that's alright
Welcome to my silly life
Mistreated, misplaced, misunderstood
Miss 'No way, it's all good, it didn't slow me down
Mistaken, always second guessing, underestimated
Look, I'm still around
Pretty pretty please, don't you ever ever feel
Like you're less than f*ckin' perfect
Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel like you're nothing
You're f*ckin perfect to me!
You're so mean, when you talk about yourself, you were wrong
Change the voices in your head, make them like you instead
So complicated, look happy, you'll make it!
Filled with so much hatred...such a tired game
It's enough! I've done all I can think of
Chased down all my demons, I've seen you do the same
Oh, pretty pretty please, don't you ever ever feel
Like you're less than f*ckin' perfect
Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel like you're nothing
You're f*ckin' perfect to me
The whole world's scared so I swallow the fear
The only thing I should be drinking is an ice cold beer
So cool in line, and we try try try, but we try too hard and it's a waste
of my time
Done looking for the critics, cause they're everywhere
They don't like my jeans, they don't like my hair
Exchange ourselves, and we do it all the time
Why do we do that? Why do I do that?
Why do I do that?
Yeah, oh, oh baby, pretty baby...I
Pretty pretty please, don't you ever ever feel
Like you're less than f*ckin' perfect
Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel
Like you're nothing, you're f*cking perfect to me
You're perfect, you're perfect!
Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel like you're nothing
You're f*ckin' perfect to me
There are many moments in my life that have a song associated with it - which I am sure many people do - but I can say that all of mine are positive memories. There are songs that I hear that make me think of a specific friend, or a night out, or whatever.
Music is going to be a big part of keeping me sane in 2011...
