Army of Mom

So this is how liberty dies ... with thunderous applause.

Its Been a Long Day

Just heard on the radio that Rob Thomas is coming to Nokia. *sigh*

When Matchbox 20 released Yourself of Something Like You, I instantly fell in love. As a newly single mom, Long Day, was sort of an anthem for me. Army of Dad's best friend scored tickets to a Matchbox 20 show in Killeen, but I had Pickle (who was 2 or 3 at the time) and I had no sitter. So, Army of Dad went with his friend. I was so disappointed. Then, Matchbox 20 was going to open at RockFest (which we all had tickets for). But, his friends goofed around too long and traffic ensued and I missed Matchbox 20 AGAIN.

*sigh*

Would really love to go to this show. But, with a cruise coming up and my business trip to San Francisco, I'm thinking it isn't in the cards yet again. If anyone scores Rob Thomas tickets and wants to donate them to me, I'll gladly take 'em. I'm not holding my breath though. LOL. StubHub's cheapest seats are $112 a piece. Laws yes. M-O-O-N spells expensive. (Yes, I'm still reading The Stand).

It's sitting by the overcoat,
The second shelf,
the note she wrote
That I can't bring myself to throw away
And also
Reach she said for no one else but you,
'cuz you won't turn away
When someone else is gone

I'm sorry 'bout the attitude
I need to give when I'm with you
But no one else will take this shit from me
And I'm so
Terrified of no one else but me
I'm here all the time
I won't go away
It's me, yeah I can't get myself to go away
It's me, and I can't get myself to go away
Oh God I shouldn't feel this way

Reach down your hand in your pocket
Pull out some hope for me
It's been a long day, always ain't that right
And no Lord your hand won't stop it
Just keep you trembling
It's been a long day, always ain't that right

Well I'm surprised that you'd believe
In anything that comes from me
I didn't hear from you or from someone else
And you're so
Set in life man, a pisser they're waiting
Too damn bad you get so far so fast
So what, so long

It's me, yeah and I can't get myself to go away
It's me, yeah and I can't get myself to go away
Oh God I shouldn't feel this way
