we'll never know.........

*verse
why dont you tell me things that i wanna hear
why do you tell me stuff that i already know
ive tried figuring out how your mind works but its rocket science
ive tried giving up, but then you come and talk to me
when will this solve, cuz we're getting nowhere if this goes on

*chorus
I never knew that love could be so complicated
Till the day I realised that I had feelings for you
So many questions all left unanswered by you
But if this is the way things remain,then we’ll never know

*verse
i really like hanging out with you, just you and me
but around them,you act so indifferent it breaks my heart
maybe i should've said and done something else instead
but if its meant to be,then its not my fault

*chorus
I never knew that love could be so complicated
Till the day I realised that I had feelings for you
So many questions all left unanswered by you
But if this is the way things remain,then we’ll never know

*bridge
now you act as if nothing ever happened between us
how can i forget all those things you said to me
it seems to me like it happened only yesterday
why are you backing out once i finally realise how much you mean to me

marion raven-break you

I was your girl
Gave you my world
My everything
But you wouldn´t seeI

had your backI backed you up
Whatever I did
Was never enough

Just you,you
That's all you ever thought aboutYou, you
No one matters like you do
What goes around comes around
You should know by now

Bet you never thought that I could break you
Did you think that I would look the other way
Yeah you had it all figured out
But tell me who's the one who's crying now

The palm of your hand
That was your plan
Gave me no time
But now you want mine

It's all about take
You took too much
Nothing insideI'm all used up

Come onYou, you
Nothing else matters like you do
You know what I'm talkin' 'bout don't you
What goes around comes around
You should know by now

Bet you never thought that I could break you
Did you think that I would look the other way
Yeah you had it all figured out
But tell me who's the one who's crying now

On your one night stands(should've thought about that)
Says she's just a friend(should've thought about that)
Are you satisfied now?(should've thought about that)
Cause you can't hold me down
Not nowI wanna thank you
'cause now I'm freeI can breathe again and I'm never going back to you

Bet you never thought that I could break you
Did you think that I would look the other way?
Yeah you had it all figured out
But tell me who's the one who's crying nowYeah yeah

Bet you never thought that I could break you
(Bet you never thought that I could break you)
Did you think that I would look the other way
Yeah you had it all figured out
But tell me who's the one who's crying now

DANIEL POWTER-BAD DAY

Where is the moment we needed the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue skies fade to grey
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on
You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carryin' on

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day (Oh.. Holiday..)

Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong

So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

don't let me fall for someone else cuz it's you that i wanna fall for......

I also wrote this like last week or so. This song is umm angst-ridden(lolz), and has its gal-power thingy. It’s a cross between the faders(was hooked on them last week) and ashlee simpson . I actually had fun writing the lyrics!

*Verse
I hate you , and I want you to know that
I liked you, liked as in past tense
But something tells me, this isn’t so right
There’s more that I should know, your side of the story

*Pre-Chorus
You keep hurting me, yet you don’t realise
But I don’t care anymore, to hell with you…

*Chorus
If you really want me, than why don’t you just say so
Don’t let me fall for someone else cuz it’s you that I wanna fall for
If I’m the girl you’re looking for, then why you gotta go flirt with her
Don’t let me fall for someone else cuz it’s you that I wanna fall for

*Verse
I’m pretty confused, but hey what’s new
Stop giving mixed signals , cuz my hearts in a mess
And everything that you do now, won’t bother me no more..
Cuz I’ve made up my mind, which is to, stop liking you

*Pre-Chorus
You keep hurting me, yet you don’t realise
But I don’t care anymore, to hell with you…

*Chorus
If you really want me, than why don’t you just say so
Don’t let me fall for someone else cuz it’s you that I wanna fall for
If I’m the girl you’re looking for, then why you gotta go flirt with her
Don’t let me fall for someone else cuz it’s you that I wanna fall for

*Bridge
But it’s up to you now
You can change how things are
If you say you want me
Then I’ll want you to……..

untitled yet(ill come with one soon la)

This is like one of the first songs I wrote that has a melody.Usually I always do them half way,but boredom got the better of me……so here it is. I wrote this last week or something,couldn’t use some of my older lyrics cuz time changes everything. My description of this song: hmm, it’s of medium tempo, and sounds decent la(to me anyway!) . Haven’t actually sung it in front of anyone yet…cuz all my friends are busy studying except me!

*Verse
It used to be easy…,but something changed
Everything’s hazy, dunno where should I go
Someone assist me, get me out of this mess,
Making decisions are part of growing up

*Chorus
I just wanna live my dreams, so let me be me
Cuz all I got is one shot at life,in case you didn’t notice
Hope I’m doing all of the right things
But I don’t have regrets in life, well maybe a few….

*Verse
Everyone tells me, me and you are meant to be
But why do I feel that you don’t care about me
So I lock myself in my room, and write another song about you
All I need is for you to open up, whatever is it

*Chorus
I just wanna live my dreams, so let me be me
Cuz all I got is one shot at life,in case you didn’t notice
Hope I’m doing all of the right things
But I don’t have regrets in life, well maybe a few….

*Bridge
But I don’t wanna think too much
I just wanna get things right
So I’ll follow my heart
And pray things go well, all through the journey….

so-called national service........!!!

I soo have to give my 7 cents worth on this topic because I spent 3 whole months(83 days to be precise) there. Call me crazy,but prior to this,I really wanted to be selected for national service because I thought it sounded FUN and I thought we are allowed to go back every weekend (poor,naïve me) . I even made up my mind to write in an appeal letter to them if I wasn’t chosen (God only knows what I was thinking at that time!)

Though I did suffer there(and that’s an understatement) I did have fun(there’s that word again) too. I also learnt a LOT of stuff,good and bad. I really,really didn’t wanna go as it was barely a week after the SPM examinations and that was supposed to be the time to paint the town pink(I happen to like pink better than red). I also had A LOT of catching up on sleep to do. Trust me when I say I tried every plausible avenue in order to “escape” from National Service,including faking medical reports,fleeing the country,getting married. I even contemplated going to jail for 3 months but I changed my mind after thinking twice!Allow me to start with the “exciting” part of it first cuz once you read the sucky(another understatement) part,you’ll be too freaked out to even consider reading the “good”(exaggeration) stuff about it.


APPEALING (gosh,I cant believe I’m using that word) PART OF NATIONAL SERVICE(in no particular order):

-I got to visit some pretty interesting places.The visit to the Henry Gurney school was totally eye-opening .It made me realize things umm that I didn’t realise before.But it was kinda freaky when we found out the “crimes” they committed in order to qualify for that school.The lesson learnt: Never judge a guy by his cuteness- factor…erm I mean never judge a book(a living or non-living thing for that matter) by its cover!

-Loads of free mineral water. Im serious!The amount of mineral bottles that I collected under my bed at the end of my “stint” is like WHOA!Go do the maths yourself!But the hard part was when I had to throw them all away on my last day there.And I had to throw them in a “normal” bin as they don’t have recycling bins there!So much for me being a environmentalist!

-I really had fun playing hide n seek with our trainers too!You see,we had this “rule” saying that we have to be at our beds(which was very hard umm in texture!) by 12.But come on,who the hell sleeps at 12 and rules are meant to be broken anyway,or so they say! So my friends and I will always sneak out just to gossip about lots of stuff.But it gives you an adrenalin rush at the same time,cuz once you’re caught red-handed,you’re doomed! And I’m not kidding on that.

-I had the chance to annoy some trainers too,which I so didn’t do on purpose.They left me with no choice,really. I mean why the heck should I tie up my hair all the time?! It was a free world the last time I checked.And-your-boots-has-to-be-shiny-all-the-time-at-whatever-cost rule really annoyed me.And by shiny,I mean shiny,as in shiny enough to see your own reflection.No matter how much effort I put in to shine my boots,its never shiny,glossy,gleaming,sparkling,shimmering.glistening(im running out of adjectives here) enough for them!As a result, I’ve been punished many a times,all because of BOOTS!And it is embarrassing,mind you,to be yelled at in front of 400 people!But I eventually became immune to that after a while.
Now,I finally understand how my brother “works”! So the good thing about this is I realized that I’ve the gift of irritating people,
all thanks to National Service!And I intend to use this “gift”to the max!

-theres a whole lot more stuff that I wanna add,bt im kinda bz right nw,so ill write them in my next blog,ya!

opening ceremony of my blog.....!!

Where do I start…………Ok,so here’s the story. I’ve always wanted to start blogging eons ago(yea,im exaggerating a little but isn’t that what blogs are about?) but its either I don’t have the time for “it” or im too bored to do “it”!
So FINALLY,after what seemed like eternity(ok,this isn’t exaggeration,it’s a umm….hyperbolation) my own blog is now up and running!
Before this, I used to keep diaries but I’ve always had a problem getting rid of them. At the end of each year,I “throw” my diary away,I mean whats the use of keeping them once the year has ended, right? It’s not like I was gonna need them as frequently as I needed my SPM History book!
So,I thought the easiest way was to toss in the rubbish bin.But what happens if the garbage guy or his boss were read it? I would then be blackmailed.Worse,he or she will know all about my clandestine activities(not that I work for some underground agency whose ultimate goal was to take over the world)
The other alternative was to sell it to the paper lama man,you know, like what those annoying kids shout on the radio: REDUCE,REUSE and RECYCLE! I know what I’m gonna say next might be hard to digest for some of you,but deep down inside,I’m actually genuinely concerned about the environment(at least till we find some other planet humans and dogs can inhabit). But my insecurities got the better of me: what if Mr Sau Kau Poo Chi decides to sell my diary to some big-time book publisher?!!!
So that’s why I decided to create my own blog. The pros outweigh the cons by a mile or two. I use way less paper,which results to a longer lifespan where trees are concerned.I also don’t have to constantly change my diarys’ hiding place.Well the only drawback about having a blog is that the whole world now knows your secret, which is something like the old newspaper man discovering your diary.
Ohh ya,another reason I no longer use diaries is because I always end up drawing stuff till I run out of place to write(hey,I cant help it if I’m naturally an artistic person,though the grades I used to get for my art pieces in school won’t tell you that).
Ok,to make a long(this depends on the individuals definition) story short,I proudly ‘rasmikan’ erm,I mean officiate my blogs' opening ceremony!!
