Welcome to the insanity of my brain.

So, I'm not sure if I've ever mentioned, but I freaking love Secondhand Serenade. I'm not entirely sure who stomped on Jon Vesley's heart to make him write such sad songs, but hey, he's amazing. His lyrics are so emotional and heartfelt, and his voice is pretty. He's pretty alright looking himself.

See. Pretty.

Anyway. Because I feel annoying, I will post the lyrics to one of the songs from his second album, A Twist in My Story, that I've been freaking obsessed with lately. It's called "Like A Knife".

I dream a lot, I know you say
I've got to get away.
"The world is not yours for the taking"
Is all you ever say.
I know I'm not the best for you,
But promise that you'll stay.
Cause if I watch you go,
You'll see me wasting, you'll see me wasting away

Cause today, you walked out of my life
Cause today, your words felt like a knife
I'm not living this life.

Goodbyes are meant for lonely people standing in the rain
And no matter where I go it's always pouring all the same.
These streets are filled with memories
Both perfect and in pain
And all I wanna do is love you
But I'm the only one to blame.

Cause today, you walked out of my life
Cause today, your words felt like a knife
I'm not living this life.

But what do I know, if you're leaving
All you did was stop the bleeding.
But these scars will stay forever,
These scars will stay forever
And these words they have no meaning
If we cannot find the feeling
That we held on to together
Try your hardest to remember

Stay with me,
Or watch me bleed,
I need you just to breathe.

Cause today, you walked out of my life
(Stay with me, or watch me bleed)
Cause today, your words felt like a knife
(I need you just to breathe.)
I'm not living this life
