NeVeR wAs A cOrNfLaKe Girl: From the Soundtrack of My Life

Soul Asylum - Runaway Train

Hollywood By Mel Trujillo

Said I'm going to Hollywood
Going to live out my dreams
Escape all these nightmares
Silence all these screams
I'm tired of this cycle
It never seems to end
No matter where I run
My heart I cannot mend
Broken and bruised
Battered and Scourned
Insecurity has me crippled
Shattered and Torn
Said I'm going to Hollywood
Anywhere is better than here
No more agonizing episodes
No more living in fear
That was the last time you beat me
That was the last time I cried
When they discover me in Hollywood
You'll know that I have died...

Slow Dance By Unknown Author

Have you ever watched kids on a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?
You better slow down. Don't dance so fast.
Time is short. The music won't last.

Do you run through each day on the fly?
When you ask "How are you?" Do you hear the reply?
When the day is done do you lie in your bed with
The next hundred chores running through your head?
You'd better slow down. Don't dance so fast.
Time is short. The music won't last.

Ever told your child, we'll do it tomorrow?
And in your haste, not see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch, let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time to call and say "Hi"?
You'd better slow down. Don't dance so fast.
Time is short. The music won't last.

When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day,
It is like an unopened gift.... thrown away.
Life is not a race. Do take it slower.
Hear the music before the song is over.

Movie Quotes I Relate With

"First, it's a Saturday night thing when you feel cool like a gangster or a rockstar- just something to kill the boredom, you know? They call it a chipie, a small habbit. It feels so good, you start doing it on Tuesdays... then Thursdays... then it's got you. Every wise ass punk on the block says it won't happen to them, but it does." - The Basketball Diaries

"Your nose is running, your stomach cramps, your legs feel like they've played six straight games on top of each other. And the voice is always there, in the back of your head, saying "just one more time, then we'll stop." And you wanna stop. You really do, but it's like a dream. You can't stop dreams. They move in crazy little pieces, anyway they want to and suddenly they're capable of anything." - The Basketball Diaries
