downcast eyes
you hear a sigh
says a million words
are you missing something
are you needing something

hard to hide living a lie
its not a perfect world
and are you missing something
are you needing something

crowded room all alone again
feel like giving up the fight
are you missing something
do you believe in something

get a little lost
but you find your way around as you go
you know your not always on your own

from where ever you call
I will hear your voice crying
tears don't always ease the pain
oh no no

you gotta stand tough
you gotta keep trying
i'll always hear your whisper in the rain

you gotta give it all you got now
from where ever you call
I will hear your voice crying
tears don't always ease the pain
noooo

you gotta stand tough
you gotta keep on trying
i'll always hear your whisper in the rain
i'll always hear your whisper in the rain
oh yeah

I said
I don't know where we're going
but I swear that we're gonna get there
can ya hear me
can you hear me baby
oh yeah

    A very deep and sad song, You will not understand unless you are accepted into the after life. It was written before this earth was born.

    "are you missing something, are you needing something" He took her just like he 'takes' the whole world away. And he blames me...
    This story is REAL!

    Either he is really god, or I am above him watching, waiting. It doesn't matter who wins, there is going to be hell to pay. If it's him, it'll probably be hell for all of us and you still wont even realize it. It's all for no reason whatsoever. He is filled with so much jealousy, envy hate, and greed. He might change one day, but he loves playing mind games, blame, sympathy, etc.

    It's been planned, very thoroughly so I doubt either side will would change it. I'm ready! Whether I'm on top watching of all this waiting, or if it is him.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.

Midnight
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms. “Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
