So... we have enough votes (actually we have one of the largest vote numbers in the history of this community, lol), but I've got homework and I only just got home. >>; So, we're going to post a new challenge and then I'll post winners tomorrow. Sorry for the delay!
Two songs for you guys this week.
Week fifty-four challenge
Song: Goodbye Waves and Drive Ways
Artist: The Rocket Summer
Just walk away
Gather your thoughts for the second length
Of this argument on this epic changing day
Its crazy to think an hour ago all things were great
But we stand both proud both wrong and right
Throwing cheap shots in this stubborn fight
And our lives are so intertwined in one
And were just so stuck in this moment its clear that were coming undone
And you see it’s hard for me to breathe
When I get all worked up with these feelings
And I don’t know exactly how it is
That we can be so mad we consider to not exist
And we both know there’s so much love clenched within our fists
Goodbye waves, the driveway just resonates
And yes I’m throwing it right back at her
Whiles were drowning in rivers from our faces
We just wanna know if this is this over
Trembling silence fills the air
As we stand here so impaired, but so aware
I sit in this house
Alone with fresh photographs
And I just can’t relax
Cigarette smoke, I’m starting to choke on this
Then half of my souls on the road in a car with a girl in a dress
See it’s making it hard for me to breathe
And I get all worked up with these feelings
And I don’t know exactly how it is
That just to say I’m right your wrong we both loose to it
Goodbye waves, the driveway just resonates
And yes I’m throwing it right back at her
Whiles were drowning in rivers from our faces
We just wanna know if this is this over
Trembling silence fills the air
As we stand here whoa-oh
So hey no maybe its being stupid
Hey maybe its being dumb
Hey maybe its time that we stop till we realize that the pride will know when we are one
How at first it’s made so cute and lovely
And the battle can be torn to shreds
And with time and with patience and love and affection
Can beat this with needle and thread
Because I love you and you love me
And nothing will make this lame
I said I love you and you love me
And nothing will make, make, make, make this lame
So remember me, yeah!
Remember me, yeah!
Remember me
Don’t walk away
Song: Mission Street
Artist: Vienna Teng
Mission Street is a striking dark-eyed stranger
Who speaks a language I don't know but long to learn
Its cadences fall endlessly beyond the windowpane
As I sit as though awaiting some return
And my hands are cold tonight
I'm sleepless in this dark
Forgetting what it was I came to find
And it seems that I've been wrong
More than I've been right
More than I've been right
Mission Street calls out to me by name
Then hurries on before I've hardly turned my head
Promises of answers muttered underneath her breath
Like an offering of contraband misread
And my hands are cold tonight
On the strings of this guitar
Looking for the chords of what I've left behind
And it seems that I've been wrong
More than I've been right
More than I've been right
Mission Street is alive at every hour
Like I've never been and feared I may not ever be
A light so steady on the mountains in the distance
A solitude so deep it might awaken me
Well my hands are cold tonight
But the sky is bright with stars
And I'm tearing through the veil that keeps me blind
And it seems the more I'm wrong
The more that I am right
The more that I am right
