The Minnow & The Trout

Help me out said the minnow to the trout
I was lost and found myself swimming in your mouth
Help me chief
I've got plans for you and me
I swear upon this riverbed
I'll help you feel young again

Not your every day circumstance
The hummingbird taking coffee with the ants



And I said
Please, I know that we're different
We were one cell in the sea in the beginning
And what we're made of was all the same once
We're not that different after all

Help me out said the eagle to the dove
I've fallen from my nest so high above
Help me fly
I am too afraid try
Now saddled with a fear of heights
I'm praying you can set me right

Not your everyday circumstance
The elephant sharing peanuts with the rats
And I said

Please, I know that we're different
We were one cell in the sea in the beginning
And what we're made of was all the same once
We're not that different after all


We are tied in history
Connected like a family

Please, I know that we're different
We were one cell in the sea in the beginning
And what we're made of was all the same once
We're not that different after all

I'll be a runaway!

Exactly how I feel. Even thought about it. All because of you, and thats why I stay.
It's been a long week, I've got a slow leak in my left front tire.
I'm sick of where I work, my boss is such a jerk, don't care if I get fired.
My backs about to break, no money in the bank, and she don't call me anymore.
I'm down to my last ring, it's time to sell my things,

And pack my bags, and never look back, run a parallel line with the railroad tracks, and make my get away.
I put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down.
Leave everybody sleepin in this sleepy town tonight, and at the break of day, I'll be a runaway!

A hundred miles in, I got a stupid grin on my scruffy face.
With every cigarette, I'm burning my regrets.
Don't want to leave a trace.
And from the rear-view, I've got clear view of who I used to be.
A little bit faster now, don't wanna turn around.

I'm gonna pack my bags, and never look back.
Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks, and make my get away.
I put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down.
Leave everybody sleepin in this sleepy town tonight.
And at the break of day, I'll be a runaway! I'll be a runaway!
I'll be a runaway, I'll be a runaway!

It's crazy, I know, to count on this road and give me what I need.
But with every state line, somehow I find, another part of me.
Yeah yeah!

I'm gonna pack my bags, and never look back.
Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks, and make my get away.
I put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down.
Leave everybody sleepin in this sleepy town tonight, and at the break of day, I'll be a runaway!
I'll be a runaway!
I'll be a runaway!

All Your Life - The Band Perry

Would you walk to the edge of the ocean
Just to fill my jar with sand just in case I get the notion
To let it run through my hand, let it run through my hand

Well I don't want the whole world
The sun, the moon, and all their light
I just want to be the only girl You love all your life,
You love all your life
Would you catch a couple thousand fireflies
Put 'em in a lamp to light my world, yeah
all dressed up in a tux and bow tie, hand delivered to a lonely girl
To a lonely, lonely girl

I don't want the whole world
The sun, the moon, and all their light
I just want to be the only girl, You love all your life
You love all your life

Lately I've been writing desperate love songs
I mostly sing them to the wall,
You could be the centerpiece of my obsession
if you would notice me at all
I don't want the whole world
The sun, the moon, and all their light
I just want to be the only girl, You love all your life
You love all your life You love all your life, life, yeah

I sing a song for you..

This blog is my playlist. My outlet for every song that describes my mood, my life, and whatever I'm thinking about at the time. My dearest friends, you have your own song.. or, more accurately, if I know you, you have a song.
Elizabeth : Let er' Rip. Its not just because we sing it fabulously together, but because you helped me find my backbone.. If it werent for you I probably would still be all mopey and sad.. Thank you..
Lucas: Parachute. You've helped me stand on my own two feet. (Literally and figuratively) You're one of the few men that I truly consider one of my hero's and one of the best guys on this planet. <3

Zach: It's random that I have you in here and you'll probably never see this but your song has never changed since the day I met you.. Guns n' Roses - I Think About You. :)
Sara : DISCO INFERNO! Just like the song that makes you hide your face, you make me smile and bring me so much happiness and comfort its irreplacable. lub you mama!
Michael: Naturally your song is Picture to Burn ;) Even though I'm perfectly content not having that first semester dream and I did end up driving that truck of yours.
Aunt Bean : Lean On Me. We lean on each other when we're not strong.. I love you so much and I could never thank you enough for all you do for me.
Momma Bear : Same goes for you. Your song is, of course, Baby Girl. Everything in that song describes us. I'll make it one day.. just wait and see. Love, your Baby Girl.


If your not in here, you do have a song, I promise.

Remember to always sing your song.
