"You and Me" - Lifehouse

What day is it
And in what month
This clock never seemed so alive

during this time- this time of complete dedication to the relationship at hand, time becomes something else, a factor that seems almost unimportant and you lose track of it very quickly and very easily
I can’t keep up and I can’t back down
I’ve been losing so much time

even though that dedication has been extreme, you find yourself behind in what has happened. you were trying to fix these problems that have been occuring, but you didnt see the ones that were forming while you were fixing other ones, and now you have lost that precious time that is now very important

Cuz it’s you and me
And all of the people with nothing to do

the only thought on your mind is that girl. and everytime your around her it feels awkward. you may not have known her long, but youre more than her friend. being around her without showing your feelings through holding hands, or hugging or whatever is killing you.
Nothing to lose
what do you have to lose? both of you? youve tried to make that point but she doesnt want to take the plunge. just because there are other people in this world doesnt change that something should be done about your relationship.
And it’s you and me
And all of the people
And I don’t know why
I can’t keep my eyes off of you

even though you're frusturated, you still can't stop looking at her admiring how beautiful she is.

What are the things That I want to say
Just aren’t coming out right

I'm tripping on words
to put it to her how you feel in words is almost impossible. you can put together everything perfectly in your mind, but to say it in words to her to make her understand is a very hard task
You got my head spinning
I don’t know where to go from here

your mind races faster and faster trying to come up with a solution to this addiction to make it better, make you and her better, but you're at a loss of words, a loss of hope

Cuz it’s you and me
And all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to prove

you and her is all the matters. you're not out to show anyone how cool it is or to be prideful of how much of an awesome girl you have. you just want to be with her. if no one else knew about it, it wouldnt change any way that you feel at all
And it’s you and me
And all of the people
And I don’t know why
I can’t keep my eyes off of you

you keep thinking about what has happened lately, as if its some kind of warning to keep away from the situation. and you try to accept this and move on. but you cant. shes got it all and thats something you cant ignore.

Something about you now
That I can’t quite figure out

there is a charm, or personality trait, or whatever you'd like to call it that sets her apart from other girls. if it was anyone else, you would have forgotten about this whole thing, but shes different
Everything she does is beautiful
Everything she does is right

the way she talks, the way she walks, that brilliant smile and radiant beauty shines through everything that she does. and it seems perfect whenever she does anything.

Cuz it’s you and me
and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to lose

so why is it that she cant see it? you can see it plainly. it would be so much better and you cant see why it can't be that way. theres nothing stopping it... except her
And it’s you and me and all of the people
And I don’t know why
I can’t keep my eyes off of you and me

and not only have you wondered why you still are pursuing her, but you cant help but look at the both of you, and how seemingly awesome it would be
And all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to prove
And it’s you and me and all of the people
And I don’t know why
I can’t keep my eyes off of you

the thoughts you've come to a conclusion on before have new meaning now and have to be thought over once more, but you dont want to leave this. you've put so much effort into it and to see it end like this..... you jus couldnt

What day is it
And in what month
This clock never seemed so alive

suddenly you get a reality check when you look at what day it is. you've got to double check the month too, because it seems like its been going on for that long when really its been about three days. its the start of a new beginning that will bring about more questions, thoughts, and ideas, but you're ready to tackle every one of them.


so i would definitely have to say this song has quite a bit of meaning in my life. ive been going through this process more than id like. its not fun, but its something you cant stop because you know of how good the ending could be- bitter sweet or not.

this has been an evaluation by dyce.

So Long, So Long - Dashboard Confessional

Hand out the window, floatin' on air..
just a flip of the wrist, I'd be waving you goodbye.
Drive past the lifeguard stand, where I'd sit around
waitin' for you to remember..
this guy really likes this girl.. actually, it's more like loves this girl. you'll see why later on. anyway, as he drives away from the beach (which is where the two of them were hanging out) he's basically "floating on air" because he was just spending time with her. he can't get her out of his head, and she gives him that feeling when she's with him that nothing could ever be wrong. the butterflies.. just.. everything. and as he sits there with her, talking, hanging out.. he waits for her to remember all of the great things that they've had, because to him, those times were the greatest things he'd ever experienced. they were times that he wouldn't trade for ANYTHING. no matter what..

Well past the beach hotels,
where the girls are gettin' bronzed on their monogrammed towels.
And I drive this ocean road,
and I remember..
as he drives away from the beach where him and this girl were talking, everything that's happened to them.. like all their times together, all their talks.. begin to flood his memories.

How the girls could turn a ghost before your eyes,
and the very dreams that led to them
are keepin' them from dyin'..
this girl that he spent so much time with.. had these great experiences with.. seems to be fading from his life rapidly. the thoughts that he had about her even before they were with each other are the ones that he's having after the fact. those thoughts are keeping her presence steadily alive in his mind.. but not only his mind. his heart..

And how the grace with which she walked into your life
will stay with you in your steps.. pace with you a while.
For so long, so long.. For so long, so long..
the way she just walked into his life he knows will ALWAYS be with him.. no matter how far along in life they get, and no matter how far apart they've grown. the memory of her will never fade. i believe he repeats the line "so long, so long" for a purpose. because it has meaning so beyond what anyone could explain. that memory will forever be with him.

The speaker in this door is blown, so nothing sounds quite right.
And I drive this ocean road.. and remember..
The small of your back, the nape of your neck,
and the soft way you'd hold me in the night.
he continues driving along this road.. continues remembering. the music in his car isn't quite working too well, so it just adds to the remembering because he doesn't have anything else to concentrate on. as he remembers, he begins to think about the more specific things about her. the things that make her how beautiful she is.

And I will leave under the cover of summer's kiss upon the sky,
like the storm-face of your lover just before she says goodbye.
I was thinking that the season could be held between my arms.
But just as summer's hold is fleeting, I was here and now I'm gone.
I'm gone.. I'm gone..
he leaves the place that he was with her in the early evening.. even before she can say goodbye. he's thinking about leaving her for good because he knows that nothing will ever happen again. the time they spent together was amazing, but he doesn't know if he can deal with being around her without being closer to her. finally, he just decides to let go.. this could have two different meanings though. he could be totally letting go, and not wanting to have anything to do with the situation.. or he could be letting the idea of any further relationship with her go, and just staying friends with her. but he knows it's a very hard thing to do.. especially when you want to be with that person.

umm.. i take this song to be some type of relationship that began to form during summertime, which is kind of ironic.. i think it applies a lot to a situation that i'm in right now though. gosh.. i almost hope my ending isn't the same.

this has been an evaluation by that one runner kid.
