Disaster (2012-10-03)

CONCLUSION 2 - Give You Me (03-10-2012)

So I fumbled on this song from a younger artist who I haven’t heard from in a while JoJo it is a great video and the lyrics are quite beautiful. I didn’t write in September cause well last year I had a lot to say and a lot had happen that month that I wanted to be spill out and scream out. Well this year wasn’t bad at all by any standard but I felt the need not to write last month.

          Well in this moment I have my mind filled with thoughts so I got behind the music gears and this song popped up. So some lyrics to type about;

“I'm trying not to pretend that it won't happen again and again like that. Never thought it would end, but you got up in my head and my head like that. You made me happy baby, but love is crazy, so amazing. But it's changing, rearranging don't think I can take anymore.

[Chorus] Cuz the walls burned up and our love fell down and it turned into whatever now we're saying never. Feel the fire cuz it's all around and it's burning for forever and always. We gotta let it go, be on our way Look for another day, cuz it ain't the same my baby. Watch it all fall to the ground No happy ever after, just DISASTER”

So it is a break up song and a sad song shocking but true. I don’t care I love, loving and I love what love stands for and, what the fairy tales and romantic comedies, and beautiful songs all have in common LOVE. I think the song is so nice the strength in those lyrics and the meaning driving them home. I’m in love with the lyrics loving is hard loving someone is harder. You have to come to terms with these simple truths that all love isn’t forever and all things end. Those aren’t bad concepts; just know in some of those things that end is a DISASTER.

It is hard to think that things can change but it is something that is inevitable. You have to know that love is hard and it doesn’t always work out. But in these moments you get some great opportunities to personally move you in a better direction. And in others it is as the titled says a Disaster, you have to realize that it is extremely hard to cope or deal when disaster strikes but with the right friends and mindset the disaster is just a storm not a Hurricane.  Catch this Breakdown;

“You shot the bullet, you shot the bullet that killed me, not feeling my heart beat, and now it's dying. I am through it, I-I am through all the agony, Now my eyes are drying, drying, No more crying, Lying's just a game. So disaster strikes, And I'm alright' cause my love's on its way.”

I love this; after all that she did in making them work this happen and she realized it’s not worth the tears or heartache so she moves on. The heart can only take so much pain before it gives in and let’s go, you can’t come back from some things. People have to realize the consequences of the choices they make, often it’s hard to think of someone else in the selfish world we live in today but it’s not so difficult to put someone first until disaster hits.

I think it is just hard to think another relationship done and over and all you have is the scars from it and all you can do is pick up the pieces and move forward. I love by the end breakdown she is fine and she sings “Disaster strikes and I’m alright cause my love is on the way” I love that line it is so true cause once the blow to your heart is evident  you see the forest from the trees. You start to see that this may have been the best thing to happen to you. When the Disaster is over when does past? Its crazy simple but stupid hard just Give Me You (Ohh Full Circle) the real you the person I see forever with and if that’s too much to ask then this Disaster can’t be fixed.  

Ok for my last thoughts both songs and posts mean so much to me I love the songs so much and the lyrics mean everything to me. I guess you wait for someone to be who you saw when you realized the game changed and when disaster hits its like all I wanted was You no gimmick Give Me You and that was too hard. The best part about a Disaster is the rebuild afterwards you can make changes reinforce the right wing (Batman reference) know what not to do the next time or look disaster in the eye and say listen let’s try this from the top without all the shit that just happen and learn to love again…

Forgiveness is so much more then saying sorry!! And to Love someone that may not be good for you is a hard pill to swallow, But Life is the Sum of Choices you Make and if I See You.. for all that you are and for what you bring to my life then just Give Me You so we can avert the next Disaster together!!!

Give Me You (2012-10-03)

Give Me You

I thought to write of this the day this album came out and I played it out like 200 times in 2 days for 2 reasons, what the song sounded in my head emotionally & what the song made me think about my career and recent Decisions.I said to myself “self if you like this song and things do or don’t change blog it” I said other self your right. So here we are things have changed and I still love this song so we will kick this one off with some lyric reference;

“Sexy words don‘t mean that much to Me Cause I heard just about Everything. That a man could ever Say To me to make me Stay. Before now I need More…

Chorus: So don’t bring me Roses, Bring me the Truth Don’t buy me Diamonds, Cause that just won’t Do Material things I can buy myself if I really want To I need something Special, I need something New Just Give Me You.”

I am going to address the obvious in my head the relationship portion I think its not to much to ask to just want the person, I mean I know me and I am a lot to handle (at times) but is that too much to ask for in someone I don’t want a lot I just want you… I will hit one more lyrics section then all my thoughts will pour onto the page about the song.

Things of this World don’t mean that much to Me I need your Heart and I need Honesty If all you’ve got is Flashiness then Please Turn around and Leave.”

         So I completely get this song on so many levels and relate in so many ways. I think for me I know how I am and I know who I am in relationships I am the lover the friend the quality time gift giving physical contact person. I love when it’s a connection it works but, don’t think I need things or broken promises, unfulfilled desires, inability to commit, or fear of the concept of us. I just need you someone who loves me and lets me love them, excited to call me your man and content that I am enough.

       I think people get so caught up in the façade and the masks they wear in relationships to keep someone when you can be who you are and go from there. Give Me You is such an easy yet difficult concept I don’t want the show or the front or all the flashiness as Tamia put it. I Love the “don’t bring me Roses just bring me the truth”. Personally I am so there don’t blow smoke up my ass or say what you think I wanna hear to make me stay look at me and say what you need to say. The thought of loneliness is a fear of mine everyone knows that I am a hopeless romantic that doesn’t mean my standards are too high that just means step your love game up. You know why I love the past besides the music and clothes and dialogue, it was the way Love was portrayed in each era. The Romans, and Greeks and Egyptians they love was seriously eternal they got buried together LOL. But then you look at westrern culture I love the courtship the give and take the 2 equally showing up to the event we call life. Makes me so happy the 1800’s, 30,40, 60, 70’s all amazing times to just Love.

    I guess I wanted to just write about this song and how amazing it is and what it meant to me. It may be hard or seem impossible to do but giving yourself to someone is the most selfless thing you can do. And when your with someone or at a crossroads with someone that concept can make you love that person more for sampling Giving you them. Or force you to see that maybe forever isn’t with this person and that may be ok. You see the change in yourself as if just Give Me You is all you wanted and you could get that and it will either work itself out or become a Disaster which oddly enough is my Post cause I am writing these right behind each other and well listening to both songs on a 2 song playlist on repeat. So with that my first
