"Beautiful Disaster"

He drowns in his dreams
An exquisite extreme I know
He’s as damned as he seems
And more heaven than a heart could hold
And if I try to save him
My whole world could cave in
It just ain't right
It just ain't right

Oh and I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful?
Or just a beautiful disaster

He's magic and myth
As strong as what I believe
A tragedy with
More damage than a soul should see
And do I try to change him?
So hard not to blame him
Hold on tight
Hold on tight

Oh 'cause I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he’s so beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful?
Or just a beautiful disaster

I'm longing for love and the logical
But he's only happy hysterical
I'm waiting for some kind of miracle
Waited so long
So long

He’s soft to the touch
But frayed at the end he breaks
He’s never enough
And still he's more than I can take

Oh 'cause I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful?
Or just a beautiful disaster

He’s beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster

[Fading]
Beautiful
(Beautiful disaster)
Beautiful disaster

I've been singing this song ENDLESSLY. But I sing it very dramatically and I want to be Gertrude SO. BADLY. THAT. IT. HURTS. But I digress.

GERTRUDE
I had a little trouble
'Cause I grew a little tail.
Well, it wasn't really little.
It was absolutely giant!
And it really was attractive
But you never even noticed,
So I felt a little silly even trying
Besides which the tail was too heavy
For normal flying.

HORTON
Go on.

GERTRUDE
Well, when the hunters caught you
I could see that I'd been foolish
'Cause I couldn't even help you
No, I couldn't even fly.
And I got so very frightened
'Cause I knew I had to save you.
No one else was gonna go to all the labor.
It was all up to me,
All you had was your next door neighbor.

So I ran to the doctor-

DR. DAKE
The doctor named Dake.
And she said-

GERTRUDE
My tail has been a mistake!

DR. DAKE
And she said:

GERTRUDE
Dr. Dake, I've been foolish and vain!
Pluck it out! Get it off!
I won't do it again!

DR. DAKE
Pluck! Pluck! Pluck!

GERTRUDE
Ouch, it hurt a lot!

DR. DAKE
Pluck! Pluck! Pluck!

GERTRUDE
Ooh, a tender spot

DR. DAKE
Pluck! Pluck! Pluck!

GERTRUDE
Just a one feather tail...
But suddenly, Gertrude could sail!

(dramatically)
I sailed on a junk
And was practically sunk
For you.
I trampled thorough the trees
Full of furious bees
For you.
I slogged through a fog
And a choking smog
Down a soggy slope
Through a stinking bog
While my slip was gripped
By a vicious dog
For you!

I galloped through the snow
In eleven below
For you.
Yes, even though I knew
I was catching the flu
For you-achoo!
And then came the hole
Where I caught my sole
And I rolled downhill
Out of all control
'Till I broke my fall
On a jagged shoal
For you!
All for you
All for you
There's nothing that I
Wouldn't--
And I couldn't!
And I haven't gone through...

(With tremendous conviction and grit!)

I sprained my little toe, but
I hobbled like so
For you!
Then came the hit and run
But I staggered on one
For you.!
Now, here I am,
The worse for wear!
And here you are!
I'm here!
You're there!
And maybe now,
You'll know I care
For you!
(pause)
Oh, yes. And Horton, one more thing...

It took me seven weeks...
But I found your clover,
Too!

AND YEAH SO SEUSSICAL IS AMAZING AND OMG AND I WANT TO BE IN THAT SHOW SO BADLY BUT MY CAMP, MIDDLE SCHOOL, AND HIGH SCHOOL HAVE DONE IT RECENTLY SO ASDHAS.

Cissa, I may have to make you a video of me singing Amazing Mayzie. Because I love that song.

Bow down in position
Against the polished steel
This is something different
You'll like the way this feels
No time for asking questions
No time for wondering
We've had enough of you now
You've heard everything

You want to play a new game
You put on this blindfold
You do what we tell you
You do as you're told
Used to be the leader
Now comes the time to serve
Maybe we'll show some mercy
Maybe you'll get what you deserve

Count down to the end
Gotta make it come faster, faster
Right around the bend
Is a coming disaster
Count down to the end
And we're headed their faster
Come on down my friend
It's time to meet your master

You've left quite a mess here under your stewardship
You thought you figured it out but you'll learn your place in this
Might take some convincing for you to see the truth
There are so many things we've got in store for you

Count down to the end
Gotta make it come faster, faster
Right around the bend
Is a coming disaster
Count down to the end
And we're headed their faster
Come on down my friend
It's time to meet your master

Come on down

Whenever I feel down, this song cheers me up. It has unimaginable cheering up powers. I love it. I love Muse's cover, too, but Nina Simone's is the best.

Feeling Good

Birds flying high you know how I feel
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by you know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Fish in the sea you know how I feel
River running free you know how I feel
Blossom on the tree you know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, don't you know
Butterflies all havin' fun you know what I mean

Sleep in peace when day is done
That's what I mean
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me

Stars when you shine you know how I feel
Scent of the pine you know how I feel
Oh freedom is mine
And I know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

I'm feeling good

Have you heard John Barrowman's version?

It's the only one I know, actually.

"Miserable At Best"

Katie, don't cry, I know
You're trying your hardest
And the hardest part is letting go
Of the nights we shared
Ocala is calling and you know it's haunting
But compared to your eyes, nothing shines quite as bright
And when we look to the sky, its not mine, but i want it so

Let's not pretend like you're alone tonight
(I know he's there and)
You're probably hanging out and making eyes
(while across the room, he stares)
I'll bet he gets the nerve to walk the floor
And ask my girl to dance, and she'll say yes

Because these words were never easier for me to say
Or her to second guess
But I guess
That I can live without you but
Without you I'll be miserable at best

You're all that I hoped I'd find
In every single way
And everything I could give
Is everything you couldn't take
Cause nothing feels like home, you're a thousand miles away
And the hardest part of living
Is just taking breaths to stay

Because I know I'm good for something
I just haven't found it yet
But I need it

So let's not pretend like you're alone tonight
(I know he's there and)
You're probably hanging out and making eyes
(while across the room, he stares)
I'll bet he gets the nerve to walk the floor
And ask my girl to dance, and she'll say yes

Because these words were never easier for me to say
Or her to second guess
But I guess
That I can live without you but
Without you I'll be miserable at best

Ladada ladada ladadaoh ohhh

And this will be the first time in a week
That I'll talk to you
And I can't speak
It's been three whole days since I've had sleep
Because I dream of his lips on your cheek
And I got the point that I should leave you alone
But we both know that I'm not that strong
And I miss the lips that made me fly

So let's not pretend like you're alone tonight
(I know he's there and)
You're probably hanging out and making eyes
(while across the room, he stares)
I'll bet he gets the nerve to walk the floor
And ask my girl to dance, and she'll say yes

Because these words were never easier for me to say
Or her to second guess
But I guess
That I can live without you but
Without you I'll be miserable
And I can live without you
But without you I'll be miserable
And I can live without you
Oh, without you I'll be miserable at best

HOLY SHIT I LOVE MUSE'S COVER! But NS is the classic... and John Barrowman's... I dunno... I don't like it that much.... weird...

ANYWAY.. I'm not sure how this fits my life seeing as it's supposedly about murder but it's stuck in my head:

There's one for the sorrow and two for the joy
And three for the girls and four for the boys

There's five for the silver and six for the gold
And seven for the secrets that are never to be told

There's eight in the river and nine in my head
And ten of the worst kind sleeping in my bed

There's a pattern, there's a pattern, there's a pattern there to follow
A pattern, there's a pattern, there's a pattern there to follow
Oh, oh, oh, to follow
Oh, oh, oh, to follow

There's one for the money and two for the sin
And three for the tongue when authority kicks in

There's four for the reason and five for the tricks
But nothing's going to save you from the six six six

There's seven for the days and seven for the nights
And seven for the heavens and the tunnel and the lights

There's a pattern, there's a pattern, there's a pattern there to follow
A pattern, there's a pattern, there's a pattern there to follow
Oh, oh, oh, to follow
Oh, oh, oh, to follow

To follow
To follow
To follow

Oh, oh, oh, to follow
Oh, oh, oh, to follow
