Grace

Lookie!!! A new song!
I got a new mp3 player!!! Isn't it cute?!



This song is about growing up.


She was only 17
She had her life left to lead
Well I don't know her any more
She left and she slammed the back door
And now everything has turned to gray
And I don't have any words left to say
And where did she go?
I think I lost her somewhere in the show

Now well, I've fallen out of grace
Far from your sweet wide-eyed face
Well I ain't see the worst of this place
And I've got no excuses again

So turn your collar up against the wind
Hold your breath until the lights grow dim
And wait until the picture's drawn
Coz maybe she's in there and maybe she's gone


Oooh well I've fallen out of grace
Oooh well I've fallen out of grace
Oooh well I've fallen out of grace

Coz she was only 17
She had her life left to lead
And where did she go?
I think I lost her somewhere in the show.
I think I lost her somewhere in the show.
I think I lost her somewhere in the show.

Sunday

I found this skirt at a store called "Valley Girl" in Wellington, New Zealand.  It has little hearts all over it.  Also, you can't see it, but the shoes are pretty worn to death...I just love them too much to retire them...

Saturday

Sorry not to post until today.  I got distracted by the Ben Folds/Sara Bareilles concert (yes, it was awesome!).

Color-spiration



What are your favourite colour palettes? 


Friday


You're going to see these shoes a lot.  I *LOVE* these shoes.  

I promise I'll wear some new colours tomorrow. But I do love this pallet...
Also, some day I will get a new camera and stop using PhotoBooth.


Thursday



Okay.  I know it seems pretty self-absorbed, so I won't pretend that it's not. I just realized that a lot of my inspiration for outfits comes from various people's "fashion diaries" and I thought I'd give back.  Also, maybe I'll finally figure out what looks good on me.  Don't worry I'll still use this blog for music.  Actually I was thinking that might be a nice way to "diary myself'" - music and clothes! Okay...Here it goes!

Oh high school....


I was 15 when I wrote this.










Invisible Girl


Viewin' the world from behind a shaggy hairdo
He looks like Cleopatra's Anthony.
He doesn't care much 'bout school or doin' homework
Takes life in stride, say's that's the way it's supposed to be.

CHORUS:
Do do do
Doesn't notice me
do do do
doesn't really see
do do do
way too cool for me
Coz I'm invisible girl

Riding his bike up and down the street
he looks so cool with those skater shoes
Smiles at me, but I can see he doesn't know me
I'm just another face to confuse



Chorus X2


BRIDGE:
And when walks
He walks right past me
And when he smiles
He smiles right through me
If only I could catch his eye, he'd see

but

Chorus X2 as before...


I saw him, three years later on
Stopped to talk, said he'd known me all along
but when he asked me what my name was
I knew that things would be the same coz:

Chorus X2 as before

I know...it's been a while

This is from 2007.  I promise I'll write some new stuff once the semester's over..











Sideways



I've been searching
The whole world over
Callin' sideways
Will you hear me out, hear me out?
I've been racing
Down your byways
Callin' sideways
Will you hear me out, hear me out?
Coz I can hardly breathe without you
And I'll do whatever you want to

I've been searching
Readin' my lines
Callin' sideways
Will you hear me out, hear me out.
February's just the name we call that time when we let it out let it out.
Coz I can hardly breathe without you
And I'll do whatever you want to

Can't move up and
Can't move down and
Callin' sideways
Will you hear me out, hear me out?






Can't move up and
Can't move down and
Callin' sideways
Will you hear me out, hear me out?
Coz I can hardly breathe without you
And I'll do whatever you want to

Do do do

Can't move up and
Can't move down and
Callin' sideways
Will you hear me out, hear me out?

Can't move up and
Can't move down and
Callin' sideways
Will you hear me out, hear me out?
Coz I can hardly breathe without you
And I'll do whatever you want to
