"Helena" - My Chemical Romance

I will sleep before 2:00am.
I will not think too much about these songs.
I will pick one and just write.

(Cough, sneeze, sniffle, uh-oh.)

I will ignore it and keep going.
I will find my sleep again.
I will not let my stomach cramps keep me awake.
I will allow my dreams to be dreams and let them go.

(Thinking good thoughts.)

I will do what my cousin advised me to do and pray for one good thing everyday.
I will not pray for my own benefit, but for something that will benefit others.
I will care about the world before I focus on my own world.

(Sigh, breathe, squint, blink.)

I will rub my eyes and keep writing.
I will appreciate what I have vs. what I don't have.
I will acknowledge that I have more than what I lack.
I will accept that what I lack won't kill me.
I will be ok with being just ok.

(Signing the letters 'O' and 'K.')

I will not look for what's not easy to look for.
I will be happy with what's in front of me because I have a lot in front of me.
I will focus my energy on what I love to do.
I will not waste my time.
I will not waste anyone else's time either.

(Sticking my tongue out.)

I will not hold any grudges.
I will smile at strangers.
I will smile bigger when they smile back at me.
I will go to the dentist.

(Showing my teeth.)

I will not be paranoid, pessimistic, and harsh.

(Rolling my eyes.)

I will try not to say any more things I know I can't do.
I will just try to do them.
I will use "..." sparingly.

(Saying, "So long and goodnight.")

I will be done soon.
I will be sleeping soon.
I will be getting better soon.
I will be.

Lyrics:

Long ago
Just like the hearse, you die to get in again
We are so far from you

Burning on
Just like a match you strike to incinerate
The lives of everyone you know

And what's the worst you take
(Worst you take)
From every heart you break
(Heart you break)
And like a blade you stain
(Blade you stain)
Well, I've been holding on tonight

What's the worst that I could say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight

Came a time
When every star fall
Brought you to tears again
We are the very hurt you sold

And what's the worst you take
(Worst you take)
From every heart you break
(Heart you break)
And like the blade you stain
(Blade you stain)
Well, I've been holding on tonight

What's the worst that I could say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight

Well, if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long not goodnight

Can you hear me?
Are you near me?
Can we pretend?
To leave and then
We'll meet again
When both our cars collide

What's the worst that I could say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long not goodnight

Well, if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight

Welcome to People

Songs TBA Last night, I saw a special, private screening courtesy of the Screening Exchange called, "Welcome to People" directed by Alex Kurtzman. I loved it and it wasn't something that I thought I'd love. In fact, I almost changed my mind at the last minute when I saw that familiar long line down the steps at Arclight Paseo. I figured, "Hell it's just another movie." But I'm so glad I didn't turn around. I'm glad I stood in the back of the line, got my hand stamped and cell phone taken away for nearly 3-hours in order to be in a room filled with strangers. I just wish I had something with me to write down the great songs I heard that disappeared by the time I logged onto this blog. It makes me appreciate technology...so check it out when it comes out. I'll make sure I have my cell phone handy the next time I see it so I can grab some songs along the way. Oh, I'm Hannah, not Frankie and let me know what you think.

Love Is Not Blind

"Colorblind" - Counting Crows I originally had a Dave Matthews Band song in my head, but like always I'm bending the rules a little bit and going with what's in my heart. After all, I couldn't follow my last blog with something you didn't like, could I? That just wouldn't fit and this seems to do just that. This song reminds me of the movie Cruel Intentions . It's hard not to think of it. Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe's chemistry was so strong, especially in their steamy love scene with this song playing in the background, that any other memory pales in comparison. I always thought the lyrics were so simple and romantic, but it became even clearer here. There was no doubt about it. I knew instantly that they were a real life couple even before they announced it. Love is obvious. Acting can never really be this good unless two people have genuine feelings for each. Look at Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams in The Notebook and Angelina Jolie ...
