Music has always been such a powerful force in my life. And, much like my artistic self comes alive during times of trauma; music swirls in and delivers more energy during these times, too. Sooo, Sunday Songbird is back (though I don't do constraints very well; so "back" is used loosely here, haa) with a delicious bit of angry awesome this week. I picked this particular video to embed because ...
Melissa uses the word "fancy"; always a seller for me.
She tells me a story; and I love stories.
And I mean, c'mon, the dude that screamed BOYGINA! Win!

Overboard
everybody got one
a definite tipping point
one particular push on a nerve
that'll send ya overboard
everybody been hurt
everybody been in love
so why do i feel so alone
sitting here with this heart you burned
yea with the heart you burned
you're nothing but a liar
we were nothing but a joke
you may have a heart in there somewhere, baby
but it's covered in smoke
you're nothing but a mirror
and you can't even look at yourself
i'm glad you cheated on me, honey
i'm better off by myself
by myself
and i got myself all mixed up here
because i believed your lies
when I heard you screaming for help
split in half is how it felt
when I came running up that hill
to find you laughing, laying there, sunning yourself
I said you're nothing but a liar
you're nothing but a joke
you may have a heart in there somewhere, baby
but it's covered in smoke
you're nothing but a mirror
and you can't even look at yourself
i'm glad you cheated on me, baby
i'm better off by myself
by myself
I'm better off by myself
I want some answers, answers, I want answers
I'm gonna rise up
I'm gonna rejoice
I'm gonna hold the hand of everything that's real
I'm gonna lay down on the dirt of this earth
fix my eyes on the moon repeating to me
I am constantly in motion; I'm a vessel for the truth
I am constantly in motion; I'm a vessel for the truth
I am constantly in motion; I'm a vessel for the truth
I am constantly in motion; I'm a vessel for the truth
I said you're nothing but a liar
were we nothing but a joke
you may have a heart in there somewhere, baby
but it's fucking covered in smoke
you're nothing but a mirror
you can't even look at yourself
i'm glad you cheated on me now
I like it here by myself
by myself
