Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
Tell me how I finally figured it out
That now you're caught in the things you said you'd never do
And now, it's starting to show like her skin fell out of her clothes
She's got a list of moves to make
Stay for me
It was the first, it was the...
Stay on me
Well, take your time lighting the room
When all's said and done, I, I bet you're covering
I bet you're covering
Is it a wonder you're lonely?
Taking chances to feel again
I bet you never knew
I bet you never
Stay for me
It was the first, it was the...
Stay on me
Suddenly, a cloud must have cut
A hole in my head
When I was tangled all in your words
How quick to forget, we are
With eyes unimpressed, you're sealing the conversations
And are you wondering how things could be?
Just staring at the surface
When all the walls have tendencies
But it's not your fault
When no one taught you how
And now the one you once loved is leaving
And now the one you once loved is leaving
And now the one you once loved is leaving
And you're so sure that I'd be just fine here
And now the one you once loved is leaving
But you were surely just taking your own time, dear
And now the one you once loved is leaving
And you're so sure that I'd be just fine here
And now the one you once loved is leaving
But you were surely just taking your own time, dear
And now the one you once loved is leaving
That now you're caught in the things you said you'd never do
And now, it's starting to show like her skin fell out of her clothes
She's got a list of moves to make
Stay for me
It was the first, it was the...
Stay on me
Well, take your time lighting the room
When all's said and done, I, I bet you're covering
I bet you're covering
Is it a wonder you're lonely?
Taking chances to feel again
I bet you never knew
I bet you never
Stay for me
It was the first, it was the...
Stay on me
Suddenly, a cloud must have cut
A hole in my head
When I was tangled all in your words
How quick to forget, we are
With eyes unimpressed, you're sealing the conversations
And are you wondering how things could be?
Just staring at the surface
When all the walls have tendencies
But it's not your fault
When no one taught you how
And now the one you once loved is leaving
And now the one you once loved is leaving
And now the one you once loved is leaving
And you're so sure that I'd be just fine here
And now the one you once loved is leaving
But you were surely just taking your own time, dear
And now the one you once loved is leaving
And you're so sure that I'd be just fine here
And now the one you once loved is leaving
But you were surely just taking your own time, dear
And now the one you once loved is leaving

Battle Royale
Word Alive, The
Word Alive, The
This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone).
And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
This song really showcases Mindy's singing abilities. I think she has a beautiful voice and did a wonderful job on this album. I was worried about the singing not being as good as the former female, but she went above and beyond what I had expected.
