talk you down, the script

the-script_huge3Taking shortcuts through the alleys. While your racing through my mind. Cops can chase but they won’t catch me. Not before I get to speak my mind. If there’s still time.

Just a cigarette gone. No you couldn’t be that far. I’m driving in my car where I hope you are. Maybe I can talk you down. Maybe I can talk you down. 

Oh, we’re standing on a tiny ledge. Before this goes over the edge. Gonna use my heart and not my head. And try to open up your eyes. This is relationship suicide.

‘Cause if you go, I go. ‘Cause if you go, I go. ‘Cause if you go, I go. ‘Cause if you go, I go.

-Talk You Down, The Script

I think this song speaks for itself already. Oh, I just love songs with great melodies and awesome lyrics.

i’m yours, the script

You touch these tired eyes of mine. And map my face out line by line. And somehow growing old feels fine. I listen close for I’m not smart. You wrap you thoughts in works of art. And they’re hanging on the walls of my heart. 

I may not have the softest touch. I may not say the words as such. And though I may not look like much. I’m yours. And though my edges may be rough. And never feel I’m quite enough. It may not seem like very much. But I’m yours.

-I’m Yours, The Script

This song is one of those songs which has the ability to make me feel relax and sad at the same time. The combination of the song’s melancholic melody and right-on lyrics unconsciously makes me think about how my life could have been had I been less insecure and more confident of myself. Yeah, I know. It’s kind of emo-ish, but what the heck. I’m sure you’ll like this song, too!

the man who can’t be moved, the script

Filed under: Music — Tags: , , — crossedfingers @ 12:38 pm

39Going back to the corner where I first saw you. Gonna camp in my sleeping bag I’m not gonna move. Got some words on cardboard got your picture in my hand. Saying if you see this girl can you tell her where I am. Some try to hand me money they don’t understand. I’m not…broke I’m just a broken hearted man. I know it makes no sense, but what else can I do. How can I move on when I’m still in love with you…

Cos if one day you wake up and find that you’re missing me. And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I can be. Thinking maybe you’d come back here to the place that we’d meet. And you’d see me waiting for you on the corner of the street.

So I’m not moving…I’m not moving.

-The Man Who Can’t Be Moved, The Script

If you’re into some feel-good, pop-rock music, then you better listen to this song by an Irish band called The Script. I’m so addicted to this song that I listen to it everyday. I guess it’s primarily due to the fact that it just brings a different kind of feeling to me whenever I hear this song.
