Before the Worst – The Script



(see full lyrics below)



If Only...




Have you ever felt that there were things that you should not have said, or things that you should not have done? If you knew that telling someone you love them would be the reason why you would lose them, would you still have chosen to do the same thing? Or would you have preferred to keep your feelings to yourself just to save whatever you have with that person?


Sometimes, even if we have pure and honest intentions, the result of our actions may not be what we were hoping for. And as much as we would want to be able to go back in time to mend whatever we have broken, it's just not possible. The only thing we can do is to move on; or try to pick up the broken pieces and start over.


The question is, do you want to move on, or do you want to pick up the pieces? What if you don't want to move on, but the other person does not want to pick up the pieces anymore? Would you force yourself to just move on?


I wanted to move on, but I just simply can't. Sometimes, loving someone is not just a state of mind. It is an unexplainable feeling that you cannot control, no matter how you try. It's something that grips your entire being and something that you can't simply shake off or forget about. And I can't move on, because I don't want to - not yet.


The painful part is that the moment you start to feel that you have found your perfect match, your soul mate, the person that will compliment you in all aspects, that's the same moment that you also realize that you have lost him. And it feels that after all that's been said and done, there's no way for you to get him back. What's worse is that you can't even feel that you still exist in his world, or if he even cares that you are hurting because of him. And you don't even have a clue as to what went wrong.


I really thought we had something special. I was led to believe that. I am not an amateur in the game of love, and I knew better than to assume. Maybe we really had something special. Or, maybe I was just blinded by how I felt for him, that's why I thought he also felt the same way for me. But no matter how many times I crack my brain thinking of what went wrong, or what could have happened if I kept my mouth shut, or what he really feels, I won't know the answers because they are simply beyond my reach.


At this point, I can't do anything about it anymore, rather than hope that something good will happen after all of these. To hope, that someday, I will still be given the chance to find out the answers to my questions. To hope that someday, he can still be my friend. For now, I can only think of the special moments we have shared, and treasure those moments as if they were the most expensive gems I have ever possessed.


Loving someone and being loved back is the most wonderful feeling a person can have. But we have to accept the fact that we are not living in a fairy tale, and sometimes, we have to fall in love and get hurt several times before we meet our Prince Charming and reach our happy ending. Sometimes, we simply have to let go, so that our wounds can heal. Sometimes, we have to let go so that we can love ourselves first and in time be able to share that love with someone who is ready to acknowledge his feelings and love you back.


We just always have to believe that everything happens for a reason. And believe that it is not other people's actions, but how we react or cope with the situation, that will lead us to find our true happiness. Moving on does not always mean you have to forget the person who has caused you pain. Sometimes, moving on can also mean you want to forget the painful things that happened, and focus on the good things that you have shared. Moving on means getting all the lessons you need to learn and being able to pick up the pieces and start over without any bitterness or hurt. Thus, I will choose to move on and hope that someday, everything will fall into place.




BEFORE THE WORST

The Script


It's been a while since the two of us talked
About a week since the day you walked
Knowing things would never be the same
With your empty heart and mine full of pain
So explain to me, how it came to this
Take it back to the night we kissed
It was Dublin city on a Friday night
You were vodkas and coke, I was Guinness all night

We were sitting with our backs against the world
Saying things that we thought but never heard
Who would have thought it would end up like this?
Where everything we talked about is gone
And the only chance we have of moving on

Is try to take it back
Before it all went wrong

Before the worst, before we mend
Before our hearts decide
It's time to love again
Before too late, before too long
Lets try to take it back
Before it all went wrong

There was a time, that we'd stay up all night
Best friends talking till the daylight
Took the joys alongside the pain
With not much to loose, but so much to gain
Are hearing me? Cause I don't wanna miss,
Set you a drift on memory bliss
It was Grafton Street on a rainy night
I was down on one knee and you where mine for life

We we're thinking we would never be apart
With your name tattooed across my heart
Who would have thought it would end up like this?
Where everything we talked about is gone
And the only chance we have of moving on

Is try to take it back
Before it all went wrong

Before the worst, before we mend
Before our hearts decide
It's time to love again
Before too late, before too long
Lets try to take it back
Before it all went wrong

If the clouds don't clear
Then well rise above it, well rise above it
Heavens gate is so near
Come walk with me through
Just like we use to, just like we use to

Lets take it back
Before it all went wrong

Before the worst, before we mend
Before our hearts decide
It's time to love again
Before too late, before too long
Lets try to take it back
Before it all went wrong

Nobody by Wondergirls - Original Video

Not So EMO Today

This is a very cute video, and the dance steps are so cool. A lot of covers has already been released. Even boys can't help but dance to this song. Wonder Girls really proved that with the correct mixture of beauty, talent, and humor, you can really make wonders. Here's the original video, which includes the part where the solo male singer was trapped in the bathroom, leaving the girls with no choice but to sing for him.

NOBODY

You Know I still Love You Baby.

Missing Someone

* I tried hard to search for the author of this wonderful piece. Surprisingly, I found hundreds of sites featuring the exact same poem, but all said the source was unknown or the author was anonymous.



For reasons that we will not be able to know, whoever wrote this chose to remain hidden. But I still would like to give him/her credit for being able to summarize the worst way to miss someone in a couple of lines.



To all those who can relate, this is just a phase. I know that when the time is right, each of us will be able to find our own happiness. Everyone will have a chance to know how it feels to love and be loved in return without ifs, but, or what ifs. No ASSUMPTIONS. Just pure, unadulterated and blind love.



Have you ever noticed that the worst way to miss someone is when they are right beside you and yet you can never have them? When the moment you can't feel them under your fingertips you miss them?

Have you ever wondered which hurts the most; saying something and wishing you had not, or saying nothing and wishing you had? I guess the most important things are the hardest things to say. They are the things you get ashamed of because words diminish them, words shrink things that seemed timeless when they were in your head... To no more than living size when they are brought out... Don't be afraid to tell someone you love them. If you do, they might break your heart...but if you don't, you might break theirs.

Have you ever decided not to become a couple because you were so afraid of losing what you already had with that person? Your heart decides who it likes and who it doesn't. You can't tell your heart what to do. It does it on its own....when you least suspect it or even when you don't want it to.

Have you ever wanted to love someone with everything you had, but that other person was too afraid to let you? Too many of us stay walled because we are too afraid to care too much. For fear that the other person does not care as much, or at all.

Have you ever loved someone and they had absolutely no idea whatsoever? Or fell for your best friend in the entire world, and then sat around and watched him/her fall for someone else?

Have you ever denied your feelings for someone because your fear of rejection was too hard to handle? We tell lies when we are afraid.... Afraid of what we don't know, afraid of what others will think, afraid of what will be found out about us. But every time we tell a lie....the thing we fear grows stronger. Life is all about risks and it requires you to jump.

Don't be a person who has to look back and wonder what they would have, or could have had. NO ONE WAITS FOREVER...

If I Were a Boy - Beyonce

At first, this song did not catch my attention. Why? I didn't think that a girl in her right mind would ever sing about becoming a boy, unless of course she's interested in girls too. However, for some odd reason, I was able to unwillingly listen to the song on a local radio attention. Surprisingly, it hit a nerve, and a painful one at that.





IF I WERE A BOY
by Beyonce
(Songwriters: Britney Carlson, Toby Gad, Beyonce Knowles)

If I were a boy even just for a day
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted
And go drink beer with the guys

And chase after girls
I'd kick it with who I wanted
And I'd never get confronted for it
'Cause they stick up for me

If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man

I'd listen to her
'Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone it's broken
So they'd think that I was sleeping alone

I'd put myself first
And make the rules as I go
'Cause I know that she'd be faithful
Waiting for me to come home, to come home

If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man

I'd listen to her
'Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taking you for granted

Baby Don't You Break My Heart Slow - MYMP


Baby Dont You Break my Heart Slow [High Quality] - MYMP


* Author's Note: Why Can't You Just Tell Me If You Love Me or Not?

The song was an original hit by Vonda Shepard, and Taylor Swift also had her own version.



The problem is, girls would tend to stick to their man no matter what, especially if she still loves him. However, men tend to prefer to make excuses, rather than tell a girl straight up that he doesn't love her anymore. Thus, the girl keeps on falling hopelessly for the guy, while the guy keeps on hoping that the girl would be the first to say goodbye.



If we can all just be brave enough to tell a person what we want that person to know, then probably, things could be a lot easier...


BABY DON'T YOU BREAK MY HEART SLOW
by MYMP
(from the album, Now)

I like the way you wanted me
Every night for so long baby
I like the way you needed me
Every time things got rocky

I was believing in you
Was I mistaken do you say,
Do you say what you mean
I want our love to last forever

But I'd rather you be mean than love and lie
I'd rather hear the truth and have to say goodbye
I'd rather take a blow at least then I would know
But baby don't you break my heart slow

I like the way you'd hold me
Every night for so long baby
And I like the way you'd say my name
In the middle of the night
While you were sleeping

I was believing in you
Was I mistaken
Do you mean, mean what you say
When you say our love could last forever

Well I'd rather you be mean than love and lie
I'd rather hear the truth and have to say goodbye
I'd rather take a blow at least then I would know
But baby don't you break my heart slow

[Bridge]
You would run around and lead me on forever
While I wait at home thinking that we're together
I wanted our love to last forever

Well I'd rather you be mean than love and lie
I'd rather hear the truth and have to say goodbye
I'd rather take a blow at least then I would know
But baby don't you break my heart slow

ONE OF THE SADDEST POEMS I'VE EVER READ...




IF YOU FORGET ME
by Pablo Neruda




I want you to know
one thing.

You know how this is:
if I look
at the crystal moon, at the red branch
of the slow autumn at my window,
if I touch
near the fire
the impalpable ash
or the wrinkled body of the log,
everything carries me to you,
as if everything that exists,
aromas, light, metals,
were little boats
that sail
toward those isles of yours that wait for me.

Well, now,
if little by little you stop loving me
I shall stop loving you little by little.

If suddenly
you forget me
do not look for me,
for I shall already have forgotten you.

If you think it long and mad,
the wind of banners
that passes through my life,
and you decide
to leave me at the shore
of the heart where I have roots,
remember
that on that day,
at that hour,
I shall lift my arms
and my roots will set off
to seek another land.

But
if each day,
each hour,
you feel that you are destined for me
with implacable sweetness,
if each day a flower
climbs up to your lips to seek me,
ah my love, ah my own,
in me all that fire is repeated,
in me nothing is extinguished or forgotten,
my love feeds on your love, beloved,
and as long as you live it will be in your arms
without leaving mine.
