Neither One of Us – Jay-R
I’ve decided to blog about my heartsongs… you know more popularly known as “theme songs”. I kinda find it corny heheh and the word “heartsong” says it more clearly for me, as in songs of the heart, songs of my heart.
You know how it is that sometimes when we hear a song and it just speaks to us? We totally get it? Maybe it is even OUR SONG. It’s like it is you singing your heart out. It speaks of what we want to say every word and every melody. It’s normal for people to want to communicate, to say our feelings but unfortunately we just don’t know how to. We can’t put the emotions through words, and luckily for us, some talented songwriter can do it for us.
Oooh I have a lot of heartsongs! Some remain over a span of many many years, some last a few months. Of course it depends on what we are going through at a specific period of our lives. And most of the time, I don’t even have to confide in you, just listen to my current heartsong and you’ll understand what I’m going through.
Some people, like me, are not that comfortable in saying my emotions, even when I already need help I just can’t voice it outloud. Im more of, “I can still handle this myself so I will do just that and continue trying…” until I explode…. oOhh and mind you they’re not colorful fireworks but loud boomerangs.
So music is really a very big part of me. It helped me go through life. Helped me release pain, angst, and the longing. Or when I’m happy my heartsong says it too. I find a perfect heartsong to be a better friend for me, it totally understands you and what you’re going through, without judgment.
For the past few weeks its been JayR’s version of Neither One of Us… I just love how he sang it, full of emotion, full of hurt hehehe…. he’s really my favorite singer…. love him! enjoy!
It’s sad to think we’re not gonna be here
And it’s gotten to the point
Where we just can’t fake it
For some ungodly reason
We just won’t let it be
I guess neither one of us
Neither one of us wants to be the first to say good-bye
I keep wondering
Wondering
What I’m gonna do without you
And I guess you must be wondering the same thing too
So we go on
Go on together
Living a lie
Because I guess neither one of us
Neither one of us wants to be the first to say good-bye
Everytime I find the nerve
Everytime I find the nerve to say I’m leaving
Memories
Those old memories get in my way
Lord knows it’s only me
Only know it’s me
That I’m missing you
When it comes to saying good-bye
That a simple word that I just cannot say
There can be no way
There can be no way
This can have a happy ending
No, no
So we just go on
Hurting and pretending
Convincing ourselves to give it just one more try
Because I guess neither one of us
Neither one of us wants to be the first to say
Neither one of us wants to be the first to say
Neither one of us wants to be the first to say
Farewell my love
Goodbye
