Not Insane - Sarah Bettens
For everytime you tell me that I can't be who I am
For everytime you twist my arm and get me to confess
For every door you close on me
For every boy or girl you turn your back to
You will pay,
the price of some day knowing that you think you tried
and yet you failed
to see that you can't change me
I told myself today
It's pretty nice to find your way
no matter what you say
I am not insane
For every so-called victory you lose a piece of you
The one that shows you love can be in everything you do...
love can be in everything you do...
I told myself today
It's pretty nice to find your way
No matter what you say
I am not insane...
Look inside you
Find what drives you
I can't change you
I told myself today
It's pretty nice to find your way
No matter what you say I am not insane...
I told myself today
It's pretty nice to find your way
No matter what you say
I am not insane...
Don't let me drag you down
Sometimes it takes some falling down
To get back on your feet
I often think the things I want
The things I really need
I noticed yesterday that latetly
I haven't noticed much
Colours change and people change
And I am busy handling the remote
When you see this side don't let me drag you down
When you feel this way don't let me drag you down
I need You to turn me upside down
In every room and every house
Someone's always waiting to be hurt
Sitting on my big behind
I am hardly rescuing the world
When you see this side don't let me drag you down
When you feel this way don't let me drag you down
I need You to turn me upside down
Don't let me hide
Behind the question Why?
Mhmhmm
When you see this side don't let me drag you down
When you feel this way don't let me drag you down
I need You to turn me upside down

Don't Look Back In Anger-Oasis
Slip inside the eye of your mind
Don't you know you might find
A better place to play
You said that you've never been
But all the things that you've seen
They slowly fade away
So I'll start a revolution from my bed'
cuz you said the brains I had went to my head
Step outside, summertime's in bloom
Stand up beside the fireplace
Take that look from off your face
You ain't ever gonna burn my heart out
And so, sally can wait
She knows it's too late as we're walking on by
Her soul slides away
But don't look back in anger
I heard you say
Take me to the place where you go
Where nobody knowsIf it's not our day
Please don't put your life in the hands
Of a rock and roll band[and? you'll? ] throw it all away
I'm gonna start a revolution from my bed
'cuz you said the brains I had went to my head
Step outside, 'cuz summertime's in bloom
Stand up beside the fireplace
Take that look from off your face'
cuz you ain't ever gonna burn my heart out
And so, sally can wait
She knows it's too late as she's walking on by
My soul slides away
But don't look back in angerI heard you say
So, sally can wait
She knows it's too late as we're walking on by
Her soul slides away
But don't look back in angerI heard you say
So, sally can wait
She knows it's too late as she's walking on by
My soul slides away
But don't look back in anger
Don't look back in angerI heard you say
At least not today.
Leef
Mag ik nog even, hier bij jou?
Mag ik nog één keer, voor het leven?
Mag ik in stilte, hier bij jou?
Mag ik nog één keer om je geven?
'k Heb niet altijd juist geleefd,
maar toch iets moois geleerd.
En ik leef, en ik leef...
Alles gaat fout, maar 't is goed
zolang ik het beleef, want ik leef...
'k Was je verloren en mij ook,
alles proberen voor ik oud word.
Maar ik sta nog steeds rechtop,
dit keer gewapend voor het koud wordt.
'k Heb je altijd graag gezien,
ben jij mijn geheim misschien?
Want ik leef, en ik leef...
Alles gaat fout, maar 't is goed
zolang ik het beleef, want ik leef...
Dat ik nu zonder spijt nog verder mag,
nog kans maak dat jij,
dat je weer lacht naar mij,
je lacht naar mij,
je lacht naar mij...
En ik leef, en ik leef...
Alles gaat fout,
maar 't is goed
zolang ik het beleef.
Ja, ik leef, en ik leef...
Alles gaat fout,
maar 't is goed
zolang ik het beleef,
want ik leef...

The world's on fire
Liar Liar
why it seems
the world's on fire
and the louder I cry out
my pain
in silence
-it seems-
my truth shall remain.

Your truth
What's your story
what's your secret
what's your story
I can't see it
What's your story
won't you tell me
What's your story
I'll find out-
Your truth

A Year of Lies
Lies,lies,all lies.
A year full of lies.
Some white little lies,some dark and hard ones.
Lies,lies, nothing but lies

"Busy"
You think you haven't changed
You think I'm being sentimental
You've finally reached that age
Security is fundamental
You think you haven't changed
You think that you're just growing older
You wanted to be safe
But it turned you into someone colder
You're so busy these days
Rearranging your place
Can you still find some space for yourself
You think you haven't changed
Is anyone to blame
I'd really like to think it's you
But it seems like that's the way
Everyone but me is going
You're so busy these days
Rearranging your face.Do you still see a trace of yourself
I'm losing all of you
To future plans and obligations
I guess that's what you do
When life's about your next vacation
You're so busy these days
Rearranging your place
Can you still find some space for yourself
You're so busy these days
Rearranging your face
Do you still see a trace of yourself
You think you haven't changed
The ones
It was nice of you to come.
I appreciate you stopping by
and I know you like to be here.
You have somewhere else to go,
everyone always does.
I appreciate your efforts to be
supernaturally nice
and I know it's not your fault that your not God or Jesus Christ.
To the ones who let me down
you really hurt me.
To the ones who let me down
you really hurt me
but I know I can't expect u to give as much I think I do.
When it's always about me.
That's not who I want to be
do u forgive me,Jezus
silly
how far i'm willing go to assure myself of love
to make sure that i'm part of who u are and what u love
To the ones who let me down you really hurt me
to the ones who let me down you really hurt me
but i'll try not to expect you to give as much as I think do...
To the ones who let me down you really hurt me
To the ones who let me down you really hurt me
but I'll try not to expect you to give as much I do..

colours
colours
in this grey madness
my sadness dissapoints
my heart and eyes
into black andblue
this indigo sadness
pulls my heart and mind
into the liveliness of life itself
until the day
life is red and warm again.

mr.freeze is real
life ain't always what it seems
to be
underneath the surface
of plastic faces
in crowds and places
a mixture of faces and races
life is easy when u fake it
beneath the shades of stages
far from home
in crowded spaces
all alone
when it all comes down,
my temperature is really low
who is this creature standing next to me
i used to be a disbeliever
but now i know mr.freeze is real

een van mijn persoonlijke favorieten
Een berg,
Ik klim steeds maar hoger
en dan val ik
Help me
Breek mijn val
met een vangnet van troostende woorden
da van sappho dus...(een beetje aangepast)
gelukkig als de goden lijkt
mij de vrouw die vlak tegenover
jou zit en luistert
naar je mooie stem
some little things
Abraxas
______
Abraxas,He said
call me Abraxas,
a minor demon of
little white
and
big black lies
Abraxas she was
divinity majority,
humanity minority
I tell you of Abraxas
bittersweet
fluent friend
to mankind no matter
how different or alike

It's been a while
hi,
I know it's been quite a while since i've posted anything here,but the thing is,I' very busy these days.
So i figured why not write something now.It's a calm,sunny Sunday morning afterall...
only problem is ..not much inspiration.
Oh I know:how about an alternate life,if u got to compare it to a tv series which would it be and what charactre would u be/want to be?Have u ever looked at your fave tv show like that.
Do any of u kow the australian series Mcleod's Daughters?It's ver nice. Well I guess if my alternate life were to be on Drover's Run,I'd probably be Becky,though if I got to choose I 'd want to be more like Claire,the boss,kinda.She's the one who always gets it together,she's a fair boss to the others,and a good friend and sister to have.
Have u ever thought,while watching tv,oh he/she s kinda like me? or 'wish I was a bit more like that',..
Or if u have a favourite tv charactre,u can let me
U know how..

The L word
Life
-----
I guess we've all heard this one before,haven't we? Life is like a box of chocolates..u never know what you're gonna get next.
I think there's a lot of truth in that saying.One day you're perfectly happy,without even realising it.You don't even have a clue...and all of a sudden one little twist of faith and your life seems like your worst nightmare.
But what do you about t:mope around or get on with it...Before you know it,that twist is there again,and u can see a silver lining...
so there u have it, this twist of faith....Does it really determinate all in our lifes or do we take part in it,do we have a say in what happens to us..
I say to a certain exctend we're in control of it.Up until a certain level we do control what we do and say,but not always of course..
Take emotions for example,sure,u can ignore them...maybe for a while.Whether they're good or bad emotions.Violence these days is often the result of bottled up emotions...suddenly unleashed...
Who amI to say all this you might say?Don't we all know how it is, some days in our life?When we take a few moments to stand still and think about it...
Some more about those emotions:
Love
------
Love,what is that...is it that weird feeling u have when u see a pretty person..is it that warm feeling,that way of feeling comfortable around certain people.is it that feeling of appreciating and being appreciated by those u care for most...
Love's a player...It can woo you and seduce you.It can make you feel great.It can make you foolish.Love can make you happy,but it can also be sour and painful.Love's a two-faced venetian lady
Ruthless,romantic,gorgeous,bitter and sweet.How did our vision of love change through
out the years.
In the days of Romans it was all about the looks,and then came the middleages,whichi is when things really started to get out of hand...Love was far from a common thing in those days...Violence,Love's greatest ennemy's was more likely to be found on your daily path than Love.War,domestic violence,rape,power games....
And if you were lucky enough to find that precious thing,u'd better pray u'd live it out....
Fortunately these days are past now...after a few more centuries we've ended up in this present day.And what has that shown us?
Are we really that different from or our ancestors?Or are we still prmates when it comes to loving someone?
Is it really all about the sex these days?And do we only care about the outside,rather than the inside of a person.(No you weirdo,I'm not talking about myself,and not it's not just a gay thing,for all u straighto's out there,in case you're thinking it.....busted....yes u ,I saw you thinking it:p)
Which brings me to my next subject:
Looks
-------
They say gay men are more into their looks and image and styling in general....is that so??
Well,when I look around I can certanly say at least one thing about this.In general gay guys do have more sense of style than most straight guys I know and even more so than some women..
And I'm not just talking fashion or decoration here.Nor their usually really stylish hairdo's.
Why is it that in general the company of gay men is much nicer than that of most straight men.Then again,there are some really nice exceptions to this rule,as there are to every one....One can never generalise..
But here's my question again are gay's more into looks?I'm not sure...
Sure you straighto's go on instinct too,and judge first,on basic first look basis...AND DON'T DENY IT you cheaky ass monkey...
Oh and why is it that so many people still judge other by their looks.Just because we're not all exact klones of each other...diversity is wealth is say....embrace the color in your life...in fact,despite our differences,deep down we're all still the same,right? I say we're basically the same...
Listen
--------
What do you like to listen to most ? Your favourite music?the sound of your lover's heartbeat?sounds of nature?the soft sound of your baby sleeping in your arms?Or maybe a combination of it all..
To me it'd be a combination of the first two,since I don't have a baby and there's not much nature around...
And what that favourite music is,I guess you all already know don't,you just have to scroll down a bit and to find out....
But then,what is music,is it the beating of a drum,the poetry in beautiful lyrics,or a guitarriff even..to me it
shoud have a bit of everything:good lyrics and good music,which still holds in live performance.that's why i love k's choice and sarah and gert bettens so much.Even solo they still rock...(www.sarahbettens.com/www.gertbettens.com)
