I was feeling sad Can't help looking back

Artist- Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Song of the day- Runaway

So I'm in the process of realizing I haven't studied all night for my quiz tomorrow and should really get on that so I"m just gonna quote my friend Mo right now and say "drop what you're doing and listen to 'runaway' by the yeah yeah yeahs. Just do it!" And he's right it is amazing and I would like to run run runaway from this studying right now cuz I've lost lost lost my mind and didn't do it tonight. So while I go learn about spinal chord and brain issues, please enjoy some awesomeness for me.



I was feeling sad
Can't help looking back
Highways flew by
Run, run, run away
No sense of time
Want you to stay
Want keep you inside

Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Want you to stay
Want you to be my prize

Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Want you to stay
Want you to be my prize

I was feeling sad
Can't help looking back
Highways flew by
Run, run, run away

No sense of time
Want you to stay
Want keep you inside

All along, not so strong without these open arms
Hold on tight
All along, not that strong without these open arms
Lie beside
All along, not so strong without these open arms
Ride beside

Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Want you to stay
Want you to be my prize

Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Want you to stay
Want you to be my prize

Wait, they don’t love you like I love you

Artist- Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Song of the day- Maps

So I've spent the majority of the last couple of days in my car attempting to decipher GPS maps, iphone maps, google maps, and state maps often leading to longer ways, wrong ways or right ways with lots of traffic. However this morning the pain was a bit eased by my rediscovery of this album as I screamed along to Karen O whilst my probable annoyed passenger attempted sleep. But I shall forever cherish this slow jam as one of my top all time fav love songs, though I have no idea what it has to do with maps. Especially since I've grown to have more of a love / hate relationship with them after this weekend. Regardless, O's weird, raw emotion gets me every time when singing this chorus. And if you've ever felt the same, you'll fall in love with this song too.



Pack up;
I’m straight;
Enough;
Oh say, say, say;
Oh say, say, say;
Oh say, say, say;
Oh say, say, say;
Oh say, say, say

Wait, they don’t love you like I love you; wait, they don’t love you like I love you;
Ma-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-aps;
Wait! They don’t love you like I love you.....

Lay off;
Don’t stray;
Well, my kind's,your kind;
I’ll stay the same!
Pack up;
Don’t stray;
Oh say, say, say;
Oh say, say, say!

Wait! They don’t love you like I love you;
wait! They don’t love you like I love you;
Ma-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-aps;
Wait! They don’t love you like I love you!
wait! They don’t love you like I love you!
Ma-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-aps!
Wait! They don’t love you like I love you …
(guitar solo)
Wait! They don’t love you like I love you;
And wait! They don’t love you like I love you;
Ma-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-aps;
Wait! They don’t love you like I love you!
And wait! They don’t love you like I love you!
Ma-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-aps!
Wait! They don’t love you like I love you …

Now roll kid, rock your body off!

Artist- Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Song of the day- Phenomena

I'm hyped up on stress and a ton of sugar goodies my amazing (and way cooler than all your friends) Sean just sent me via a finals study care package. I'm freaked out, more unprepared for a final than I have ever been and am currently wearing glow bracelets and butterfly wings...yes this is what happens to me during finals. But the title of this song took on a whole different meaning when I started nursing school and had a polish pharmacology teacher that demanded I know every single phenomena there were for drugs. So here's to my last day of pharm. Please send out a sweet sweet selfish prayer for me and my fellow test takers that we can remember every stupid phenomena known to man! Dance it out kids!



Hey!

Don’t touch kid, sleep with the lights on
Touch kid, how you surprise me
Now roll kid, rock your body off!

You’re something like a phenomena
Something like an astronoma
Now roll kid, rock your body off!

Something like a phenomena, baby
You’re something like a phenomena
Something like a phenomena, baby
You’re gonna get your body off

Don’t fall asleep with a murderer
She’ll make you sweat in the water
Don’t fall asleep with a murderer
She’ll make you sweat in the water

Hot time kid
Hot time kid
It’s cold under the blanket
They loved it
Then shot it
The fastest ran and got it
That story that ease my
They hide it up the sleeves, my
They hide it
They hide it
They’re never gonna find it

Don’t fall asleep with murderer
She’ll make you sweat in the water
Don’t fall asleep with murderer
She’ll make you sweat in the water

Something like a phenomena, baby
You’re something like a phenomena
Something like a phenomena, baby
You’re gonna get your body off
Something like a phenomena, baby
You’re something like a phenomena
Something like a phenomena, baby
You’re gonna get your body off

Hot time kid
Hot time kid
It’s cold under the blanket
Hot time kid
Hot time kid
It’s cold under the blanket
