Dig- Incubus

"We all have someone that digs at us"

On August 19, I went Buzz Beach Ball, an alternative music festival in my hometown.  At this concert, I saw The Givers, Middle Class Rut, AWOLNATION, Tom Morello and the Nightwatchmen,Neon Trees, Bush, Jane's Addiction, and my all time favorite band, Incubus.  I was at the very front, one person away from being against the railing, and experienced my first mosh pit.  Oh the joys of a mosh pit.  Bruises galore, but worth it to see beautiful Brandon Boyd up close.

This is one my favorite Incubus songs.  I prefer their slower stuff, but love it all the same.  I believe Brandon Boyd has one of the best voices in music today.  So clear and pretty.  He and the band are great live. 

We all have a weakness
But some of ours are easy to identify
Look me in the eye
and ask for forgiveness
We'll make a pact to never speak that word again
Yes, you are my friend
We all have something that digs at us
At least we dig each other
So when weakness turns my ego up
I know you'll count on the me from yesterday

If I turn into another,
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone
Oh

We all have a sickness
that cleverly attaches and multiplies
No matter how we try
We all have someone that digs at us
At least we dig each other.
So when sickness turns my ego up
I know you'll act as a clever medicine

If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone
Oh, each other
When everything else is gone

If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone

Oh, each other
When everything else is gone
Oh, each other
When everything else is gone

Drown- Carolina Liar

"You're a mess but yes you're beautiful"

I gained 10 pounds when I was staying at the hospital with my mom.  Whoops.  So, because I still have 5 lbs to lose (and because I am a nutrition major), I really need to get back into shape.  Good thing my job is very physical.

This is apparently Carolina Liar's new single.   It is going to be available on iTunes on the 12th.  But, anywho, I really like this band.  Like 2 years ago they got famous, then they disappeard, but yay they're somewhat back again!  Plus, I love the lead singers long luscious locks lol.

So soon you will learn to forget
bad times, the rules and regrets
One day they won't reach for you
So you put the fires you set
As smoke fades from your last cigarette
You're a mess but yes you're beautiful

Oh, come on down
We can drown in this water
It's only gonna set us free
Come on down
We can drown in this water
You've been praying for a remedy

Who really cares for fatal mistakes
Trailer park dreams
don't carry much weight
In the long run you've got nuthing to prove
So go run while you can still get away
Take a breath while it's still yours to take
You're a mess but yes you're beautiful

Oh, come on down
We can drown in this water
It's only gonna set us free
Come on down
We can drown in this water
You've been praying for a remedy

So who really cares if you make a mistake

Oh, come on down
We can drown in this water
It's only gonna set us free
Come on down
We can drown in this water
You've been praying for a remedy

Oh, come on down
We can drown in this water
It's only gonna set us free
Come on down
We can drown in this water
You've been praying for a remedy
