These are songs that remind me of the greatest friends I have. In fact, they're all pretty generic friendship songs but they all mean a lot to me. I miss my friends so much (so many of them are not here in Columbia) and so I made this to make myself feel better.
Or worse. I'm not sure how it's going to go yet. :P
Onward to the songs~
All you need to save me
All you need to save me
Call (call)
And I'll be curled on the floor hiding out from it all (all)
And I won't take any other call.
I feel like a fool
So I'm going to stop troubling you
Buried in my yard
A letter to send to you
And if I forget or God forbid die too soon
Hope that you'll hear me
Know that I wrote to you...
Soil, Soil // Tegan & Sara
{This is one of those not so generic songs. I swear to God that Tegan and Sara like...broke into my head and wrote exactly how I feel about my neurosis and anxiety attacks and how I handle them with Cati and Jacee. o_O}
Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play?
Dear Prudence, greet the brand new day
The sun is up, the sky is blue
It's beautiful and so are you
Dear Prudence won't you come out to play?
Dear Prudence // Dana Fuchs, Joe Anderson, Jim Sturgess & Evan Rachel Wood
{The best friends are the ones who get you out of bed and just get you to live with the rest of the world. ♥}
When my insides are wrecked with anxiety
You have the touch that will quiet me
You lift my spirit
You melt the ice
When I need inspiration
When I need advice
I turn to you
Like a flower leaning toward the sun
I turn to you
'Cos you're the only one
Who can turn me around when I'm upside down
I turn to you...
I Turn To You // Mel C
{Best friends are also the ones you can count on to be there for you, when you need them to give you advice or to just hold you when you're upset.}
All my time is froze in motion
Can't I stay an hour or two more
Don't let me let you go
Here's a toast to all those who hear me all too well
Here's to the night we felt alive
Here's to the tears you knew you'd cry
Here's to goodbye
Tomorrow's gonna come too soon
Here's to the Night // Eve6
{You drink, you laugh, you cry with all these friends...and sometimes you have to say goodbye...but hopefully only for a little while. I mean...we're all on an extended holiday and we'll all see each other soon amirite?}
What would do think if I sang out of tune,
Would you stand up and walk out on me.
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song,
And I'll try not to sing out of key.
Oh I get by with a little help from my friends,
He gets high with a little help from his friends,
Oh I'm gonna try with a little help from my friends.
What do I do when my love is away.
(Does it worry you to be alone)
How do I feel by the end of the day
(Are you sad because you're on your own)
No, I get by with a little help from my friends,
Mmm I get high with a little help from my friends,
Mmm I'm gonna to try with a little help from my friends
Do you need anybody?
I need somebody to love.
Could it be anybody?
I want somebody to love.
Would you believe in a love at first sight?
Yes I'm certain that it happens all the time.
What do you see when you turn out the light?
I can't tell you, but I know it's mine.
Oh I get by with a little help from my friends,
Mmm I get high with a little help from my friends,
Oh I'm gonna try with a little help from my friends
Do you need anybody?
I need someone to love.
Could it be anybody?
I want somebody to love
Oh...
I get by with a little help from my friends,
I'm gonna try with a little help from my friends
I get high with a little help from my friends
Yes I get by with a little help from my friends,
with a little help from my friends
With A Little Help From My Friends // Joe Anderson & Jim Sturgess
{This song is Friendship, with a capital F!}
You and me, we could never hide
Too busy walking out of stride
You and me could never hide
Too busy walking out of stride
Take 1,2,3 then 4 or 5
People talking keeps us alive
Walking Out of Stride // Badly Drawn Boy
{This song was first given to me on a Wes/Hobbie fanmix...but to me it has always embraced what friendship isabout. You find the niche you fit in, and then you don't care what people think. You just do whatever you want as long as you enjoy it!}
A friend, the only friend, who whispers in your ear
Just to say good luck and that is all you need to hear
Undivided // Thirteen Senses
{Another Wes/Hobbie song...and it works, because they are best friends before subtexty lovers! :P}
I'm trying hard not to be ashamed
not to know the name of who is waking up beside me
or the date, the season or the city
but at least the ceiling's very pretty
and if you are holding it against me
[...]
should I choose a noble occupation
if I did I'd only show up late and
sick and they would stare at me with hatred
plus my only natural talent's wasted on my alcoholic friends
my alcoholic friends
the party never ends
my alcoholic friends
My Alcoholic Friends // The Dresden Dolls
{What can I say? I have some alcoholic friends...but we have fun and we're safe, so that's all that matters. O and I passed college this semester and that matters too :P}
In daylights, in sunsets
In midnights, in cups of coffee
in inches, in miles, in laughter and strife
In five hundred twenty five thousand, six hundred minutes
How do you measure, a year in the life?
How about love?
[...]
It's time now, to sing out
Though the story never ends
Let's celebrate
Remember a year in the life of friends
Season of Love // Rent
{You measure your time together in the good and the bad memories, the way you feel about each other and how you changed each other's lives. This song fits all of that}
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl,
year after year
Running over the same old ground,
What have you found? The same old fears...
Wish you were here.
Wish You Were Here // Rasputina
{And when you do part, all you want is to be together again.}
