Jimmy Eat World – Kill Lyrics 15 years ago
Another song I used to listen to but never really got the meaning until today when it came on my ipod and I gave it another chance after so many years (you know, when you over listen to something and you cannot stand it anymore!).

Anyway, listening to the lyrics...shit it sounds like my life! I noticed that my life is repeating itself this year like last year with various things that I am doing, and to top it all off the guy that came into my life during that exact segment last year, has made small appearances in my life now! However we keep missing each other...and I'm scared of actually seeing him again. However I want to. 'I know what I should do but I just can't walk away'. Because as they say...'I need answers for what all the waiting I've done means'. I feel that I have missed a lot of chances the past year because I'm looking/waiting for him.

This bit really really makes me feel emotional:

'I know it but can't help feeling differently
I loved you
And I should have said it
But tell me
Just what has it ever meant'

I maybe should have made it more obvious...or just said something to get it out.
However, I feel if we did meet this summer because 'Could it be that everything goes around by chance
Or only one way that it was always meant to be', then I'm ready. So ready to finish this and get closure by establishing what happened!

So much of this song just hits me! I feel that if we saw each other again, how it is described in the song would be exactly how I would feel. I am so the singer!

Too many signs recently...it's creeping me out!

A Fine Frenzy – Almost Lover Lyrics 15 years ago
I used to listen to this song when I was younger and I loved it. I didn't fully understand it and applied it to a situation with a guy (but really it wasn't applicable now that I've experienced this!). Over listened to it though so stopped.

However, I have been feeling really hung up on this guy who l guess you could say I was 'almost lovers' with.
I was so convinced I was over him and hadn't thought about him in AGES, until his friend told me he was coming to where I live (but I wasn't there that weekend!), and my friend later drunkenly admitted to me that he confessed to his friend that when we were living near each other, and seeing each other everyday he would have wanted to be with me, save for the fact he had a long term girlfriend...big news to me! (Nothing ever happened because of the girlfriend-not that I knew she existed, but we flirted a lot and nothing would ever go all the way and I could never understand why not-almost lovers). Anyway this song came on 'Viva' last night when I was feeling really shitty about the whole situation! Took it as a major sign!!!!! I almost cried...I really want him to 'just let me be'. So many of the lyrics really hit home...

'You sang me Spanish lullabies'-He wrote me a poem in English, but he wanted to write it in Spanish originally (I don't speak Spanish so he decided not to because I said one of our friends could translate it).

'I cannot wake up in the morning
Without you on my mind
So you're gone and I'm haunted
And I bet you are just fine'

I really feel silly being so hung up but this song just rings so true and makes it feel kind of better that other get so hung up too! I keep saying I am over it, but every reminder and you just can't help it...

I guess all that is needed is closure...don't know how to get it but I want it!
Any ideas...be my guest!

Jimmy Eat World – Let It Happen Lyrics 15 years ago
Although it probably doesn’t mean this, when I listen to this song certain aspects of the song remind me of my relationship with a guy…or the relationship that never quite happened.

‘I have a ringing in my head
And no one to help me answer it
Even with you close enough to kiss’
Reminds me of all the little moments…so close to being something and him not really knowing if he should go through with it or not.

‘Gotta love how it's somehow all on me
All the petty scenes
And all the pretty things’
I kind of blame him for all the flirty, charming, potential, intimate moments…although it’s not like I did nothing.

‘I must look like I'm running away’
Whenever there was the possibility for something to happen he would suddenly leave.

‘Yeah, I'm the evil one who said:
"Gonna let everything just happen"’
He never said he had a girlfriend…he just kept leading me on and continued with the flirting…

BASICALLY, a guy with a girlfriend who meets a girl he has an attraction to, but being a decent guy he would never cheat on his girlfriend…but he can’t let the other girl go/doesn’t want to lose her interest in him.
