Plain White T's - Hey There Delilah

Hey there Delilah
What's it like in New York City?
I'm a thousand miles away
But girl tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do
Times Square can't shine as bright as you
I swear it's true

Hey there Delilah
Don't you worry about the distance
I'm right there if you get lonely
Give this song another listen
Close your eyes
Listen to my voice it's my disguise
I'm by your side

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me

Hey there Delilah
I know times are getting hard
But just believe me girl
Someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar
We'll have it good
We'll have the life we knew we would
My word is good

Hey there Delilah
I've got so much left to say
If every simple song I wrote to you
Would take your breath away
I'd write it allEven more in love with me you'd fall
We'd have it all

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me

A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us
and we'll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have felt this way
Delilah I can promise you
That by the time we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you're to blame

Hey there Delilah
You be good and don't you miss me
Two more years and you'll be done with school
And I'll be making history like I do
You'll know it's all because of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there Delilah here's to you
This ones for you

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me.

On the side of me


I'm not the easiest person to love
I'm often the one who lets things go unresolved

Yet you choose to be
on the side of me
on the side of me
Yet you choose to be on the side of me
on the side of me

I'm not too proud of some things
I've done in my life
The skeletons in my closet
Are too big for me to hide

Yet you choose to be
on the side of me
on the side of me
Blessed Charity
You're on the side of me
on the side of me

Everyone needs a friend to hold
when it's cold outside
and there's no place to go
Everyone needs a friend to hold
all alone I cried
there was no place to go
I remember when nobody cared
but you

I'm not the easiest person to love
But you, you've opened your heart to show me what I'm worth

'Cause you choose to be on the side of me
on the side of me
What a mystery
You're on the side of me
on the side of me

Everyone needs a friend to hold
when it's cold outside
and there's no place to go
Everyone needs a friend to hold
all alone I cried
there was no place to go

I remember when nobody cared
I remember when nobody cared
Nobody cared
But you

Yeah you choose to be
on the side of me
on the side of me

Listening to its lyrics, i decided there and then, that i absolutely like the song.

Her album is set to release on August 6th in Singapore.

Reflection of my anger

SELFISH!

.
.
WHY THE FUCK CAN'T I BE SELFISH?!

WHENEVER I WAS GIVING IN NATURE, WHAT DID I GET?

NOTHING!
ONLY UNAPPRECIATION, BEING TAKEN FOR GRANTED AND THUS LEADING TO MY OWN UNHAPPINESS!

SO WHY CAN'T I BE SELFISH NOW?
SO WHAT IF I NO LONGER MAKE YOU HAPPY, WHICH WAS AT THE EXPENSE OF MY HAPPINESS?
I ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT AS LONG AS YOU WERE HAPPY, I WOULD BE HAPPY TOO. THAT SEEING YOU HAPPY COULD ABOLISH ALL THE DISCOMFORT I HAD TO GO THROUGH.

BUT NOW, IT'S NO BIG DEAL!
CUZ I FINALLY FACED IT, THAT EVERYONE IS SELFISH!
CUZ AFTER SO MUCH, NO ONE UNDERSTANDS HOW I ACTUALLY FEEL.

WHAT IS THE OUTCOME? MISUNDERSTANDINGS!
AND IT'S ALWAYS MY FAULT!

SO FUCK BEING ACCOMMODATING!
MISS NICE DIED FROM DISAPPOINTMENTS AND HEARTACHES!

DO NOT FUCKING JUDGE ME, WHEN I NEVER DID SO.

WHATEVER YOU DID, EVEN THOUGH SOME THINGS WERE MORALLY WRONG, BUT I NEVER ONCE THOUGHT BADLY OF YOU.

WHY?
CUZ YOU WERE SPECIAL TO ME.

BUT A SMALL MISTAKE I MAKE, I BECOME A TOPIC TO GOSSIP ABOUT?
SO MUCH FOR UNDERSTANDING ME?
THANKS HOR.

SO BE IT. IT DOES NOT PAY TO BE GOOD.

IT'S MY TURN TO BE SELFISH, TO BE HAPPY.

Mouse Story...

A mouse
looked through the crack
in the wall
to see the farmer and his wife
open a package.

"What food
might this contain?"
The mouse wondered -
he was devastated
to discover
it was a mousetrap.

Retreating to the farmyard,
the mouse
proclaimed the warning:

"There is a mousetrap
in the house!
There is a mousetrap
in the house!"

The chicken clucked
and scratched,
raised her head
and said,
"Mr. Mouse,
I can tell
this is a grave concern to you
but it is of no consequence to me.
I cannot be bothered by it."

The mouse turned to the pig and told him,
"There is a mousetrap
in the house!
There is a mousetrap
in the house!"

The pig sympathized,
but said,
"I am so very sorry, Mr. Mouse,
but there is nothing
I can do about it but pray.
Be assured
you are in my prayers."

The mouse turned to the cow and said,
"There is a mousetrap
in the house!
There is a mousetrap
in the house!"

The cow said,
"Wow, Mr. Mouse.
I'm sorry for you,
but it's no skin off my nose."

So, the mouse
returned to the house,
head down and dejected,
to face the farmer's mousetrap -- alone.

That very night
a sound was heard
throughout the house --
like the sound
of a mousetrap
catching its prey.

The farmer's wife
rushed to see
what was caught.
In the darkness,
she did not see
it was a venomous snake
whose tail the trap had caught.

The snake
bit the farmer's wife.
The farmer
rushed her to the hospital
and she returned home
with a fever.
Everyone knows
you treat a fever
with fresh chicken soup,
so the farmer took his hatchet
to the farmyard
for the soup's
main ingredient.

But his wife's sickness
continued,
so friends and neighbors
came to sit with her
around the clock.
To feed them,
the farmer butchered the pig.

The farmer's wife
did not get well;
she died.
So many people came
for her funeral,
the farmer
had the cow slaughtered
to provide enough meat
for all of them.

The mouse looked upon it all
from his crack in the wall
with great sadness.

So, the next time
you hear someone
is facing a problem
and think it doesn't
concern you,
remember --
when one of us is threatened,
we are all at risk.

We are all involved
in this journey
called life.
We must keep an eye out
for one another
and make an extra effort to
encourage one another.

REMEMBER:
EACH OF US
IS A VITAL THREAD
IN ANOTHER PERSON'S TAPESTRY;
OUR LIVES
ARE WOVEN TOGETHER
FOR A REASON.

One of the best things
to hold onto in this world
is a friend.
