Happy Birthday Lapislazuli...
Here are 5 of my favorite female vocalists besides Kate:
Enjoy- (more tomorrow)
"Easy"- Tracy Thorn

I watch the way the light
Falls across the street
I watch the way you blink
Just before you speak
I love the way you breathe
I'll hate the day you'll leave
It's easy to forget
We haven't even started yet
Sometimes
love is a mistake
An easy one to make
And if there's any doubt
You're better off without
I watch you as you sit
Staring at your screen
I think that I could fit
The spaces in between
It's easy when we try
We need reminding why
We try, when we try
Do we just intend to try?
And that's broken and sad
Still the only thing we have
And i'll be waiting here
'til someone has a better idea
Something that could make it easy

You walked into my house last night.
I couldnt help but notice
A light that was long gone still burning strong.
You were sitting,
Your fingers like fuses.
Your eyes were cinnamon.
You said you stand for every known abuse
That was ever threatened to anyone but you.
And why should I know better by now
When Im old enough not to?
While every line speaks the language of love
It never held the meaning I was thinking of.
And I cant decide over right or wrong.
I guess sometimes you need the place where you belong
Some may sing the wrong words to the wrong melodies
Its little things like this that matter to me.
Others feel that you should stand
For every known abuse to hand
And all the things that they could never see.
You said you stood
For every known abuse that was ever promised to anyone like you.
Dont you wish you knew better by now
When youre old enough not to?
When every line speaks the language of love,
It never held the meaning I was thinking of.
And I cant decide over right or wrong.
You left the feeling that I just do not belong.
Do not belong x8
One drink too many
And a joke gone too far
I see a face drive like a stolen car.
Gets harder to hide
When youre hitching a ride
Harder to hide what you really saw.
Oh, yeah, you stand
For every known abuse that Ive ever seen my way through.
Dont I wish I knew better by now?
Well I think Im starting to.
When every line speaks the language of love
It never held the meaning I was thinking of.
And Ive lost the line between right or wrong.
I just want to find the place where I belong.
Why should you know better by now,
When youre old enough not to?
I wish I knew better by now,
When Im old enough not to.
