Anything but Ordinary

To all you doubters out there, this next song demonstrates that beauty doesn’t necessarily denote the absence of talent. Unlike yesterday’s, this is relatively less popular, and thus does not possess its own video. Just as well. This means that instead of staring at Avril’s tough grace, we can exclusively admire her vast vocal range while concentrating on the implication of her lyrics. Should this be the new direction for me? Only time will tell. Till then, enjoy.

Sometimes I get so weird
I even freak myself out
I laugh myself to sleep
It's my lullaby
Sometimes I drive so fast
Just to feel the danger
I wanna scream, it makes me feel alive

Is it enough to love?
Is it enough to breath?
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please

To walk within the lines
Would make my life so boring
I want to know that I
Have been to the extreme
So knock me off my feet
Come on now give it to me
Anything to make me feel alive

Is it enough to love?
Is it enough to breath?
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please

Let down your defences
Use no common sense
If you look you will see that this world is
Beautiful, accident, turbulent, succulent, opulent, permanent, no way
I wanna taste it
Don't wanna waste it away

Sometimes I get so weird
I even freak myself out
I laugh my self to sleep
It's my lullaby

Is it enough?
Is it enough?
Is it enough to breath?
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please

(Is it enough?)
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please

p.s. Should this be made into the official theme for the IDIOTs?

Losing Grip

Without any impediment from a certain someone, obviously the foremost indulgence would come in the form of ALCO. Not alcohol, silly. Avril Lavigne’s ‘Complicated’ Opening. Barring the evident gender references, this is probably an apt initial video that illustrates the separation of my former frame of mind in respect to my approach to life in general, people in particular. As well as the fact that Avril is the ultimate hotness. =)

Are you aware of what you make me feel, baby?
Right now I feel invisible to you, like I'm not real
Didn't you feel me lock my arms around you
Why'd you turn away?
Here's what I have to say

I was left to cry there
Waiting outside there
Grinning with a lost stare
That's when I decided

Why should I care?
’Cause you weren't there when I was scared, I was so alone
You, you need to listen
I'm starting to trip, I'm losing my grip and I'm in this thing alone

Am I just some chick you place beside you to take somebody's place
When you turn around can you recognize my face
You used to love me, you used to hug me
But that wasn't the case
Everything wasn't ok

I was left to cry there
Waiting outside there
Grinning with a lost stare
That's when I decided

Why should I care?
’Cause you weren't there when I was scared, I was so alone
You, you need to listen
I'm starting to trip, I'm losing my grip and I'm in this thing alone

Crying out loud I'm crying out loud
Crying out loud I'm crying out loud

Open your eyes
Open up wide

Why should I care?
’Cause you weren't there when I was scared, I was so alone
Why should I care?
’Cause you weren't there when I was scared, I was so alone
Why should I care?
If you don't care then I don't care, we’re not going anywhere
Why should I care?
’Cause you weren't there when I was scared, I was so alone
Why should I care?
If you don't care then I don't care, we’re not going anywhere

The Change

I have finally come to a realization that it is beyond my capabilities to compose a provocative literary piece everyday to be published before lunch. True, I do not wish to disappoint my avid readers who visit my site daily. Unfortunately, I cannot confuse you all everyday with strings of words that are equivalent to sentences extracted from academic journals, even though we all need the distraction from our daily lives.

Therefore, I am attempting a different approach commencing this week onwards.

In light of a recent liberation from a restriction, both self-imposed and peer-forced, I intend to convey a month plus long narrative, that reflects my predicament at the moment, through a series of inter-relatable songs that I was privileged enough to chance upon. They will not be the perfect embodiment of the circumstances, for I do not boast an extensive knowledge on music like one midnight angel, but I feel they are adequately accurate.

Don’t worry too much about this apparent underlying message. Just enjoy the tunes first.
