i got excited just now because i had a comment on my last post....but when reading it, i realized it was not a comment about an awe inspiring post, moreso it was i need to blog.. so here it is..

currently at austin java jammin some tunes, surfin itunes, just had a spectacular turkey and cranberry sauce sandwich and a cup of roasted chicken soup...take away the humidity and add a bit more rain and it would be the perfect coffee shop day...i've been listening a lot lately to jon mclaughlin's song "beautiful disaster." heres the video and lyrics:



She loves her mama's lemonade,
Hates the sound that goodbyes make.
She prays one day she'll find someone to need her.
She swears that there's no difference,
Between the lies and compliments.
It's all the same if everybody leaves her.

And every magazine tells her she's not good enough,
The pictures that she sees make her cry.

And she would change everything, everything just ask her.
Caught in the in between, a beautiful disaster,
And she just needs someone to take her home.

She's giving boys what they want, tries to act so nonchalant,
Afraid they'll see that she's lost her direction.
She never stays the same for long,
Assuming that she'll get it wrong.
Perfect only in her imperfection.

She's not a drama queen,
She doesn't want to feel this way, only seventeen but tired

She would change everything for happy ever after.
Caught in the in between, a beautiful disaster,
But she just needs someone to take her home.

Cuz she's just the way she is, but no ones told her that's ok.

And she would change everything, everything just ask her.
Caught in the in between of beautiful disaster,

And she would change everything for happy ever after.
Caught in the in between of beautiful disaster,

But she just needs someone to take her home
And she just needs someone to take her home.

First of all, thanks for the blog. Since i requested it, I ought to comment, right? Secondly, the lyrics to this song are incredible...I am currently writing a series for the fall/winter called "The Rock Cries Out: Finding God in Modern Music" and I think this song just made the cut...thanks.
