Everyday Superhero - Smash Mouth

I have a lot of random thoughts that I want to put in to a blog but nothing solid enough to post yet. Mostly its just whining because I have been in a bad mood for days now! or just snarky? I don't know.

So here is just a song I like. Dedicated to all those ordinary everday super heroes! I think of it as a song for those that don't really realize how much of impact they have on others and really at the end of the day, they are just human.



Everyday Superhero - Smash Mouth

Every morning I wake up just the same
Another victim, of ordinary fame
I don't see myself as invincible
It's not... true at all

I'm just your average ordinary everyday super hero
Trying to save the world
But never really sure
I'm just your average ordinary everyday super hero
Nothing more than that
It's all I really am

Just a day job, someone's got to do
It's kinda hard when everyone looks up to you
Try to make it look easy
Gonna make it look good
Like anybody would

I'm just your average ordinary everyday super hero
Trying to save the world
But never really sure
I'm just your average ordinary everyday super hero
Nothing more than that
It's all I really am

I'm just like everybody else
After all the hype is hard to tell
I keep my game face on so well

I'm just your average ordinary everyday super hero
I'm trying to save the world
I'm just your average ordinary everyday super hero
I try to hide my true identity
But no one knows it's only me

I'm just your average ordinary everyday super hero
Trying to save the world
But never really sure
I'm just your average ordinary everyday super hero
Nothing more than that
It's all I really am

Scars

I love this song by Papa Roach. It really describes my current feelings on my ex.

I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut

My weakness is that I care too much

And my scars remind me that the past is real

I tear my heart open just to feel

This is the part I am mostly talking about. I will open myself to him sometimes because I care too much. Just in general. And, each time I do, I get hurt and I have to sew myself shut against him again.

Then this part.....

I tried to help you once
Against my own advice
I saw you going down
But you never realized
That you're drowning in the water
So I offered you my hand
Compassions in my nature
Tonight is our last stand

I have tried so many times to help him (mostly while we were still married, now not so much.) I still give him a bit of advise now and listen to him when he needs to talk. I know I will always have some type of relationship with him and I think that's why I try to care. Compassions in my nature but I can't always help him, I can't always be there to listen. I feel like I'm done with sympathy towards him.

And....

I can't help you fix yourself
But at least I can say I tried
I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life
I can't help you fix yourself
But at least I can say I tried
I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life

I think that says it all. I gotta move on with my own life and I think I have pretty darn well without him if I do say so myself!!!! It is almost my Blogiversary and I will talk more about my progression from last year to this. Lots of growth in myself and I feel good!

Oh and I love Papa Roach!!!!

"I Wanna Do it All" Performed by Terri Clark

I Wanna Do It All
Written by Giles Godard, Rick Giles & Tim Nichols

I'm sitting in traffic
For the 5th year in a row
Wasting my time
Just to get
Where I don't even wanna go
I started jotting things down
On a krispy kreme sack
Everything I'd do
If I could leave this place
And never look back

I wanna do it all
Visit Paris in the fall
Watch the Yankees play ball
I wanna take it all in
Catch a few beads
Down at Mardi Gras
Start a tradition
Lay down the law
I wanna do it all

I want to drink tequila
Down in Tijuana
Say why not
When somebody says
Hey do you wanna
I wanna get my heart broke
Once or twice
Settle down with the love of my life
Rock little babies to sleep at night

I wanna do it all
Visit Paris in the fall
Watch the Yankees play ball
I wanna take it all in
Catch a few beads
Down at Mardi Gras
Start a tradition
Lay down the law
I wanna do it all

I wanna spend a day
Every now and then
Just doin what I want to do
When I wanna do it
Anytime I wanna do it

I wanna do it all
Visit Paris in the fall
Watch the Yankee's play ball
I wanna take it all in
Catch a few beads
Down at Mardi Gras
Start a tradition
Lay down the law
I wanna do it all

See Niagara falls
Fight city hall
Feel good in my skin
Beating the odds
With my back to the wall
Try to rob Peter
Without paying Paul
I wanna do it all
I wanna do it all
I wanna do it all

"She Let Herself Go"

This song just reminds me of me.... a little bit! Of course I haven't gotten to travel yet but I will.

"She Let Herself Go" by George Strait (Dean Dillon/Kerry Kurt Phillips)
He wondered how she'd take it
When he said goodbye
Thought she might do some cryin'
Lose some sleep at night
But he had no idea
When he hit the road
That without him in her life
She'd let herself go

Let herself go on a singles' cruise
To Vegas once, then to Honolulu
Let herself go to New York City
A week at the spa
Came back knocked-out pretty
When he said he didn't love her no more
She let herself go

She poured her heart and soul
Into their three bedroom ranch
Spent her days raisin' babies
Ironin' his pants
Came home one day from the grocery store
And found his note
And without him there to stop her
She let herself go

Let herself go on her first blind date
Had the time of her life
With some friends at the lake
Let herself go buy a brand new car
Drove down to the beach
He always said was too far
Sand sure felt good between her toes

She...
(Repeat 1st Chorus)

Tag
To Vegas once
Honolulu
New York City
Came back knocked-out pretty
