So you found a new book?
Or maybe you just published one?
Did you find a new webcomic that you like?
Or a song you think everyone should hear?
No need for explanation…Just Share it.
You find a good deal that you think we should all see? Just share!
Or hey even a joke you think too fun not to share, Just share it.

Lyrics –
To all things housed in her silence
Nature offers a violence
The bear that keeps to his own line
The wolf that seeks always his own kind
The world that hardens as the harsher winter holds
The parent forced to eat its young before it grows
Every bird, gone unheard
Starving where the ground has froze
The winter sunrise, red on white
Like blood upon the snow
Like blood upon the snow
The ground walked here is a wonder
It ceases never to hunger
And all things nature’s given
She takes all things back from the living
I’ve walked the earth and there are so few here that know
How dark the night and just how cold the wind can blow
I’ve no more hunger now to see where the road will go
I’ve no more kept my warmth
Than blood upon the snow
Blood upon the snow
Blood upon the snow
Blood upon the snow
It’s not my arms that will fail me
But this world takes more strength than it gave me
The trees deny themselves nothing that makes them grow
No rain fall, no sunshine
No blood upon the snow
Blood upon the snow
Blood upon the snow
Blood upon the snow
To all things housed in her silence
Nature offers a violence
My 2 cents –
This is such a lovely song. It feels more like a poem being sung than a song to me.

Lyrics –
[Verse 1]
Gazing through the window at the world outside
Wondering will mother earth survive
Hoping that mankind will stop abusing her sometime
[Verse 2]
After all, there’s only just the two of us
And here we are still fighting for our lives
Watching all of history repeat itself time after time
[Chorus]
I’m just a dreamer
I dream my life away
I’m just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days
[Verse 3]
I watch the sun go down like everyone of us
I’m hoping that the dawn will bring a sign
A better place for those who will come after us this time
[Chorus]
I’m just a dreamer
I dream my life away, oh yeah
I’m just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days
[Bridge]
Your higher power may be God or Jesus Christ
It doesn’t really matter much to me
Without each other’s help there ain’t no hope for us
I’m living in a dream of fantasy, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 4]
If only we could all just find serenity
It would be nice if we could live as one
When will all this anger, hate and bigotry be gone?
[Chorus]
I’m just a dreamer
I dream my life away, today
I’m just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days, okay
I’m just a dreamer
Who’s searching for the way, today
I’m just a dreamer
Dreaming my life away, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
My 2 cents –
I notice the celebrity deaths…I can’t help it. This one hurts, but I am grateful that he was able to do a goodbye concert. It feels like he went out on his own terms. I realize that everyone’s playing Mama I’m coming home … I understand the reason why , and I love that song but I feel like he had such a good discography that I wanted to share a different one. Ozzy was a legend . I cannot help but pay tribute to that. May he rest well and his memory be a blessing.

Lyrics –
Who’s sorry now?
Who’s sorry now?
Whose heart is achin’ for breakin’ each vow?
Who’s sad and blue? Who’s cryin’ too?
Just like I cried over you
Right to the end
Just like a friend
I tried to warn you somehow
You had your way
Now you must pay
I’m glad that you’re sorry now
Right to the end
Just like a friend
I tried to warn you somehow
You had your way
Now you must pay
I’m glad that you’re sorry now

I notice the celebrity deaths…I can’t help it. I remember listening to Connie Francis as a teen. (One of my Aunts really liked the 50’s rock.) I come by my eclectic music tastes naturally. She wasn’t one of the ones that I listened to relentlessly but I did like a few of the songs. I cannot help but pay tribute to that. May she rest well and her memory be a blessing.

Lyrics –
I can see you’re strugglin’
Promise you’ll find love again
Yeah, it will be alright
Why are you so hard on yourself?
Yeah, why you gotta try so hard?
Counting calories and carbs
Another trip across the world
I go so hard tryna
Make you feel just like a queen
You don’t need a camera to make a scene
You were born like that, no Maybelline
When you first wake up, you’re bad to me
Pop another Addy, no sleep tonight
Can’t push the wheel slow, I’m speedin’ right
Over to the crib ’cause we need to slide
But you take so long makin’ up your mind
Little black dress, Dior bag
Can leave ten times, I’ll take you back
Why you wanna look like someone else?
Why are you so hard on yourself?
I can see you’re strugglin’
Promise you’ll find love again
Yeah, it will be alright
Why are you so hard on yourself?
Try not to fall apart
You’re perfect just the way you are
It will be alright
Why are you so hard on yourself?
Why you gotta compare our lives
To pics you see on your timeline?
Another shot of Hennessy
I try so hard not to
Act like a dick when I’m ’round your friends
Mood swings up and down again
Hollywood Hills, where we play pretend
No one happy, but they’re good at fakin’ it
Pop up in the party, show face tonight
I don’t really smoke, but I need the vibes
She love to get high, she need the flights
Standin’ so high, swear she could fly
And just like that, you get sad
Let’s go home, girl, this party’s so wack
Why you wanna be like someone else?
Why are you so hard on yourself?
I can see you’re strugglin’ (yeah)
Promise you’ll find love again
Yeah, it will be alright (it’ll be alright)
Why are you so hard on yourself? (Yeah)
Try not to fall apart
You’re perfect just the way you are
It will be alright
Why are you so hard on yourself? (Oh)
Girl, when you look in a mirror
I hope you see what I see clearer, yeah
All that I want you to know
Is that you’re perfect the way that you are
Oh, the way you are (oh, the way you are)
Oh-oh, ooh
Oh, why are you so hard on yourself?
I can see you’re strugglin’
Promise you’ll find love again
Yeah, it will be alright
Why are you so hard on yourself?
Try not to fall apart
You’re perfect just the way you are
It will be alright
Why are you so hard on yourself?
Oh-oh, oh-oh (yeah)
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
My 2 cents –
I myself have felt like this. on both sides of the song. I am sure that others have too.

Lyrics –
intro
Keep movin′ on
verse
Don’t bother askin′ me to ever give my lady up
Was about five years old, takin’ my first puff
It was love at first light, fell in love the first night
My uncle told me, “Don’t rush, this could be your first crush”
Now I′m on the block with all the homies, and it′s a family affair
17 with a dream, blowin’ smoke in the air
Servin′ fiends, my routine is where I was that year
Avoidin’ ′em fuckin’ pandas in my rearview mirror
County blues, wanna lose shit, I′m with all of my peers
Lookin’ back, I wouldn’t change shit, oh what a career
I used to flip bags with her (yeah), skip class with her (yeah)
She′s comfortable as fuck when I′m tryna smash with her
She got a lotta fans, and they’re always harassin′ us
Ashes to ash to dust, feels like I’m Lazarus
I can′t get past the rush, never pass her up
Who took this bitch worldwide? Nigga, we’re gassin′ up, now is the
chorus
Last dance with Mary Jane, one more time to kill the pain
Even before the fame, she was my Novacane
You know it ain’t gon’ change, ′cause now
I feel summer creepin′ in, and I’m tired of this town again
And if the truth remains that it just ain′t the same
Without my Lois Lane by my side
verse
I’ve seen some things in my life, it feels like ragin′ inside
This time I’m changin′ my mind, I’m sayin’ goodbye to the dangerous side
Sometimes you gotta roll with it, fightin′ fire is a damn cold finesse
Somehow she came in my life
Between the white lines and made it alright (well alright)
And everything she ever told me, knew it from the get-go, yes I did (yes I did)
And if I gotta grab a can of gasoline, strike a match, I′ma burn that bridge
It’s so unfair what she did to me, the way she sparked this epiphany
I tried to walk away, but I′m stumblin’, whole world crumblin′
Some things never change, but now it’s my
chorus
Last dance with Mary Jane (this is my last dance), one more time to kill the pain
Even before the fame, she was my Novacane
You know it ain′t gon’ change, ’cause now
I feel summer creepin′ in (I feel it comin′), and I’m tired of this town again
And yet the truth remains that it just ain′t the same without my Lois Lane by my side
outro
Mm-mm-mm, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Mm-mm-mm, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Keep movin’ on
My 2 cents –
the video is so trippy. I love the original version but I like this one too.
