Fucking EMO

I'm sorry for being such a pain in the ass let me just complete my rant and hopefully I can get started with some work. I was listening to this song on the way home and thought it rather apt. Yes I'm a scene, I'm a drama queen, I'm The Best Damn Thing that your eyes have ever seen.

Anyway, Mandy Moore's cover of Umbrella may have, to quote, "turned it into a funeral hymn", but she does have some cracking original tunes, especially from her eponymous album. And this one's from there. It's called Turn The Clock Around.

You can listen to it below...note that the video has absolutely nothing to do with the song...I have no idea what it has to do with and I'm really not interested.


We were talking to each other till dawn
You put your arms around me and you asked me what is wrong
I tried to be so serious, you smiled and played along
You were leaving town tomorrow, yeah tomorrow you'd be gone

We must have had the stars above and heaven on our side
'Cause we fell in love before we even made it through the night
But you were leaving town to start another kind of life
You walked me to the door and tried to say goodbye

Maybe I've never found the right way
Kept my love hidden underground
Baby I wish that there was some way
That I could turn the clock around


I couldn't sleep, I called up everybody that I knew
All my friends said that I'd be crazy if I waited 'round you
And I wanted to believe then so I called to say we're through
But when I heard your voice, it nearly broke my heart in two

Maybe I've never found the right way
Kept my love hidden underground
Baby I wish that there was some way
That I could turn the clock around

Don't say you're lost, I'll find you
Someday...

Well I jumped into the car but as I headed down the road
I knew that when I got there, there might be nobody home
You'd gone away forever, and you left me all alone yeah
Now I was on my own

Maybe I've never found the right way
Kept my love hidden underground
Baby I wish that there was some way
That I could turn the clock around
