I was never no, never no, never enough, But I can try, I can try to toughen up.

Artist- She & Him
Song of the day- Change is hard

Once I told my sis I was doing a week long tribute to duets, she immediately asked if I'd include She & Him. A favorite of us both, and the indie duo to beat at the moment, M. Ward's masterful guitar and Zooey Deschanel's old school singing style always make me feel cooler just listening to it and was almost worth waking up early every morning back in the day just to go running with or "accidentally bump into" Deshanel in the silverlake reservoir....though clearly my not being a morning person won that round. I love this breakup song from their first album. I hate change, though I seem to encourage it all the time, it's never not once been an easy thing to do. In any aspect. If I could keep a place a relationship a time in my life at the moment of its perfectness I would happily do so. But alas, life is the opposite and the new experiences never seem to stop coming whether good or bad. Sometimes life forces us to change, sometimes we want change, and sometimes we know it's the right thing to do even when it hurts. So here's to the ever changingness of life, let's toughen up and see what's out there next for us!



I'm all outta luck but what else could I be?
I know he's yours and he'll never belong to me again.
I did him wrong.
So don't brag,
Keep it to yourself.
I did him wrong.
I was never no, never no, never enough,
But I can try, I can try to toughen up.
I listened when they told me
If he burns you, let him go.
Change is hard, I should know.
I should know.
I should know.
So I'll keep my head down
If you keep it quiet from now on.
In the halls I'd rather hear silence than the bell of new love.
So don't brag,
Keep it to yourself.
I did him wrong.
I was never no, never no, never enough,
But I can try, I can try to toughen up.
I listened when they told me
If he burns you, let him go.
Change is hard, I should know.
I should know.
I should know.
I should know.
