 "they drank up the wine and they started talking
 they now had more important things to say
 and when the car broke down, they started walking
 but where were they going without even knowing the way?
 anyone could see the road that they walked on was paved in gold
 and it's always summer, they'll never get cold
 they'll never get hungry
 they'll never get old and grey
 you could see the shadows wandering off somewhere
 they won't make it home, but they really don't care
 they wanted the highway
 they're happier there, today"
                - the way, fastball

 "my gaze lays like a stain on the carpeted floor
 if it weren't for my brain i'd go over and make friends
 too bad about my brain 'cause i'd like to make 
 friends..."

love, naomi

 i'm in love 
 with the world
 through the eyes
 of a girl...
 --elliot smith "say yes," as sung by kat

 she taught me how to wage a cold war with quiet charm
 but i just want to walk through my life unarmed
 and to accept and just get bu like my father learned to do
 but without all the acceptence in getting by
 that got my father through

 i just want you to understand
 that i know what all the fighting was for
 and i just want you to understand
 that i'm not angry anymore
 no i'mmm not angry anymore

 we generate our own light ot compensate
 for the lack of light from above
 and every time we fight a cold wind blows our way
 but we can learn
 like the trees
 how to bend
 how to sway and say
 
 i, i think i understand,
 what all this fighting is for
 and baby i just want you to understand
 that i'm not angry anymore
 no i'm not angry anymore.

goodbye four-leafed clovers hello gone awry don't cry, the fight ain't over unless you let it pass you by i'm looking for a song to sing, yeah I'm looking for a friend to borrow i'm looking for my radio so i might find a heart to follow i've never been just longing for your lovin' i've never been just wearing down to nothing i've never been just looking for a reason so that maybe you'd be thinking of me oh, you'd be thinking of me

Song To Sing by Hanson sung by Landis

 I go out walkin'
 after midnight,
 out in the starlight
 just like we used to do.
 I'm always walkin'
 after midnight,
 searchin' for you.
 I walk for miles
 along the highway,
 well that's just my way
 of sayin' I love you.
 I'm always walkin' 
 after midnight,
 searchin' for you.

~Patsy Cline, sung for you by Becky~

"You have so many relationships in this life, only one or two will last. You go through all the pain and strife then you turn your back and they're gone so fast

So hold onto the ones who really care cuz in the end, they'll be the only ones there."

 joyful girl by ani difranco

 i do it for the joy it brings
 because i'm a joyful girl
 because the world owes me nothing 
 and we owe each other the world
 i do it because it's the least i can do
 i do it because i learned it from you
 and i do it just because i want to 
 because i want to

 everything i do is judged
 and they mostly get it wrong
 but oh well
 'cuz the bathroom mirror has not budged
 and the woman who lives there can tell
 the truth from the stuff that they say
 and she looks me in the eye
 and says would you prefer the easy way
 no, well o.k. then
 don't cry

 i wonder if everything i do
 i do instead 
 of something i want to do more
 the question fills my head
 i know there's no grand plan here
 this is just the way it goes
 when everything else seems unclear
 i guess at least i know

 i do it for the joy it brings
 because i'm a joyful girl
 because the world owes me nothing
 and we owe each other the world
 i do it because it's the least i can do
 i do it because i learned it from you
 and i do it just because i want to
 because i want to           

sung by heather i love you!!

napoleon by ani d. sung to ali love by jess

 they told you your music could reach millions
 the choice was up to you
 you told me they always pay for lunch
 and they believe in what i do
 and i wonder if you'll miss your old friends
 once you've proven what you're worth
 and i wonder when you're a big star
 will you miss the earth
 and i know you always, always want more
 i know you, you'll never be done

 because everyone is a fucking napoleon
 everyone is a fucking napoleon
 
 and the next time that i saw you
 you were larger than life
 yeah you came and you conquered
 you were doing all right
 you had an army of suits behind you
 and all you had to be was willing
 and i said i still make a pretty good living
 you must make a killing, a killing
 and i hope that, that you are happy
 i hope that at least you are having fun

 oh but everyone is a fucking napoleon
 well everyone is a fucking napoleon
 
 you say that, so that's the way it's gonna be
 so that's what this is all about
 i think that that's the way it always was
 you chose not to notice until now
 oh now that, now that there's a problem
 you call me up to confide
 and you go on for over an hour
 about each one that took you for a ride
 and i guess that you dialed my number
 because you thought for sure that i'd agree
 i said baby, you know i still love you
 but how dare you complain to me

 oh but everyone is a fucking napoleon
 everyone is a fucking napoleon
 everyone is a fucking napoleon

 happy birthday to you
 happy birthday to you
 happy birthday to my sweet baby girl ali
 happy birthday to you
