it was 7am, and i still thought they were amazing lyrics.. so they're worth posting.
these really speak to me...
enjoy.
HANDS HELD HIGH
LINKIN PARK
Turn my mike up louder I got to say something
Light weights step to the side when we come in
Feel it in your chest the syllables get pumping
People on the street they panic and start running
Words on loose leaf sheet complete coming
I jump in my mind and summon the rhyme, I'm dumping
Healing the blind I promise to let the sun in
Sick of the dark ways we march to the drum and
Jump when they tell us that they wanna see jumping
Fuck that I wanna see some fists pumping
Risk something, take back what's yours
Say something that you know they might attack you for
Cause I'm sick of being treated like I have before
Like it's stupid standing for what I'm standing for
Like this war's really just a different brand of war
Like it doesn't cater the rich and abandon poor
Like they understand you in the back of the jet
When you can't put gas in your tank
These fuckers are laughing their way to the bank and cashing the cheque
Asking you to have compassion and have some respect
For a leader so nervous in an obvious way
Stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay
And the rest of the world watching at the end of the day
In their living room laughing like "what did he say?"
Amen
Amen
Amen
Amen
Amen
In my living room watching but I am not laughing
Cause when it gets tense I know what might happen
World is cold the bold men take action
Have to react or get blown into fractions
Ten years old it's something to see
Another kid my age drugged under a jeep
Taken and bound and found later under a tree
I wonder if he had thought the next one could be me
Do you see the soldiers they're out today
They brush the dust from bullet proof vests away
It's ironic at times like this you pray
But a bomb blew the mosque up yesterday
There's bombs in the buses, bikes, roads
Inside your market, your shops, your clothes
My dad he's got a lot of fear I know
But enough pride inside not to let that show
My brother had a book he would hold with pride
A little red cover with a broken spine
On the back, he hand-wrote a quote inside
When the rich wage war it's the poor who die
Meanwhile, the leader just talks away
Stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay
And the rest of the world watching at the end of the day
both scared and angry like "what did he say?"
amen
amen
amen
amen
amen
With hands held high into the sky so blue,
As the ocean opens up to swallow you.
happy birthday to me
happy birthday to me
happy birthday dear daaaaaaaaaani.

BRICKSRISE AGAINST When faith alone is not enough,
To keep our heads barely above,
We look for reason and come up empty-handed.
And when our children fight our wars,
While we sit back just keeping score,
We're teaching murder not understanding now.
We're setting the fires to light the way,
We're burning it all to begin again,
With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hands,
We sing for change
The lives our buried sons have laid,
Won't cancel debts we've yet to pay,
In death, we justify anything now,
As long as we blindly obey and do exactly what they say,
We'll have no one to blame, but ourselves now.
We're setting the fires to light the way,
We're burning it all to begin again,
With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hands,
We sing for change.
We run on the fumes of injustice,
We'll never die with the fuel that you give us,
Keep it coming 'cause I'm prepared to burn,
Keep running, find me at every turn.
Your life around,
(into something true, into something true)
So turn your life around,
(into something true, something true)
We're setting the fires to light the way,
We're burning it all to begin again,
With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hands,
We sing for change.
today is willis' birthday.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY WILLISSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ID [interdisciplinary] MADE STATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
be happy.
im stoked.
that is all.
Area was last night.
we did really well.
[1st]--Science--17/25
[1st]--English--20/25
[1st]--ID--17/25
[those were my teams]
[1st]--Math--20/25
[2nd]--Fine Arts--17/25
[5th]--Social Studies--11/25[yikes]
there were only 6 schools that we were competing against.
overall, we did great last night.
that, however, proved to be a pointless effort.
the only team that made it to state was Math.
now allow me to rant.
ya see, you cant challenge questions or answers to questions, you can only challenge procedure.
there, you needed to know that before i continue.
there was one question at the end of the English round. *How were Emily Dickinson's view on the war similar to those of Walt Whitman?* the answer was *similar, but less verbose.* they said the answer was *the reverse* this is wrong. or at least, thats what we believe. [and we're good at interpreting stuff, so we're right.] because of this, we missed the question. and because we missed the question, we didnt go to state. purdue...ugh. they suck hardcore. [they're the ones that write all the questions] fuck you purdue. you screwed us over in ID too. ugh.....
its not a huge deal, so we didnt get to state. i'll get over it. but its just kinda dumb, we didnt get the answers wrong because we were wrong. we got them wrong because PURDUE was wrong. why should we be penalized for their error? why?
im done ranting.
in other news.
today is Daniel's birthday. hes 17.

LANDMINES AND LANDSLIDES
--less than jake--
Dear "you won't answer me" did you honestly think i'd ever leave?
if you'd somehow just believe me
you've gotta know right now that these words still sting
i've lost everything i've ever touched
the results were eating me up for once i've had enough
landmines-landslides no matter how i try
landmines-landslides every single time
i fell asleep while watching tv
while the living dead
they walk my streets this evening
this sitting target's been stuck on the couch again
pretending i'm stable as the panic sets in
the results were eating me up for once i've had enough
landmines-landslides no matter how i try
i'm destined for disaster a failure by design
landmines-landslides every single time
i'm destined for disaster i'm trapped on every side
you know how hard i try sometimes
you can see it in my eyes
it's always eating me alive the day to day of getting by
self-control from all the helplessness i've known
i'm a wreck lacking confidence there's no arguments you know
landmines-landslides no matter how i try
i'm destined for disaster a failure by design
landmines-landslides every single time
i'm destined for disaster
i'm trapped on every side
whoa... whoa...
landmines-landslides every single time
i'm destined for disaster
i'm trapped on every side
screw purdue.
IU not only WANTS me. they're giving me a hell of a lot of cash to go there, so...
its ok.
i guess.
i am in possibly one of the worst moods ever right now.
i finally got my purdue letter.
...i didnt get in..
fuck.
apparently, they cant accept me because my *academic records did not meet requirement*.
i was too dumb.
i know i still have IU, but most of you know, IU is NOT where i wanted to go.
not at all.
damnit.
