Underoath \m/


I've been listening to the new Underoath album, Lost in the Sound of Separation lately. It comes out on Tuesday and I highly recommend it! It's really good to listen to for me right now. I figured I'd post some of the lyrics on here that kinda spoke to me.
"We Are the Involuntary"
There's a calling ahead
A desperation
A falling of man
We are all lost in the sound of separation
Hands in the air and love at our sides
There's gotta be something bigger
With the beating in our throats
And the tremble in our grip
This can't be it
I'll come up for peace
I'll come down for truth
I'll give in, I'll give up for you
The floors are shaking
And we've lost our step
Oh Lord, have mercy on us all
"Coming Down in Calming Down"
The lost ask for a hand
But I can't stop, I never stop
I've been losing my footing here
I'm all mixed up in this
I need some kind of change
God make it stop, I can't make it stop
This place is getting smaller
Everything in your darkest thoughts about me might be true
I hear the words you say, I still feel nothing
I put my voice out there for you to hear
But the words never made much sense to you
I've lost my path
I'm fading fast
Time is short
Time is up
This is really my plan
To get out in one piece
Is this really your plan
To keep me lost and on my knees
I say redemption
Can someone help me hold on

"Breathing in a New Mentality"
Oh, I'm in over my head again
reach in and grab a hold of me
I'm so scared that I've started to slip
"Anyone Can Dig a Hole but it Takes a Real Man to Call it Home"
We always assume the worst
I'm afraid no ones listening anymore
I'm freaking out
I'm so sick
I'm making me sick
Don't look down
The only thing in my way is myself
I'm just thinking out loud
How can I still be alive
I should've been gone so long ago
I can't get away from it all
I messed up like I always do
I gave you nothing
I took you nowhere
You're still listening


Take from it what you will. I hope something resonated.

frustrations in the life of Snappy

Sooo you can't delete previous posts? Strange. There must be a way. I just haven't figured it out yet. If you know, and are reading this, please inform me.

I am frustrated, with a bunch of things. Well it may not in actuality be a bunch of things, but man it feels like it. I have friends moving, anal professors & other educational-related concerns, guy problems, WORK, financial concerns, and NOT ENOUGH TIME it feels like to deal with it all. Maybe I have too much time so I just worry about it instead of feeling the pressure to actually get it done/keep it off my mind. Yeah that must be it. But anyways, that list of things is actually kinda expansive so maybe I do have a reason to feel frustrated. I really would love love love not having guy problems. I don't want to give out any info about it really, but it makes another one of those issues more of a concern. When those 2 combine it = BBaaaaddddd. Oh freakin-A.
I need a vacation. Yeah, that's right. I, who work 3 days a week and go to school 3, needs a vacation. I want to go travel the world and when I get back I will miraculously have graduated hygiene school and have enough money to buy a house & pay off my debts. Heck yes. That would be awesome!

So until that day comes.......I need to deal with all this crap now. School comes first, then finances, friends, then boys. Sounds logical, but I'm not so sure I can keep friends & boys so far down on the list. Ah heck with the boys, they can be off the list. But my friends are important.

Ok I'm done ranting for now and I'm sure you're done reading it. NIGHT!

I wish I had discovered it sooner. You will enjoy it, trust me. That is if you're not already. And if you are, bookmark me! We shall share one another's music and have a good time.

I AM MAD AT MY CAR!

My 2 passenger side windows and my rear driver side do not work. However, the front driver side window works. Explain that to me. Also tell me please how much this is going to cost. This sucks. A lot. But the good news is I don't have to go shadow tomorrow because I need to find someone to fix this quick and cheap. But there's some more bad news; it's supposed to rain tomorrow. SUCK!
