Move along ... just to make it through

I struggle through life at times. And although in general I live a pretty charmed life that I love, shit happens. Grad school. Relationships. Everything. It can be tough. This blog is one way of coping. I vent, joke, ramble about nothing and overall keep it light here.

Another way I cope is music. I’ve been listening to a song lately that makes me feel stronger. It’s called "Move Along" by The All-American Rejects. (The rest of the album is pretty good too.)

For those of you who may not know, I’ve hopefully set the date for my thesis defense… September. God knows there will be rough days ahead and I’m going to have to just move along.

I’ve included the lyrics below and here are links to the song and video

And when you need to move along just to make it through, give it a listen. It will cheer you up, I promise:)


Move Along

Go ahead as you waste your days with thinking
When you fall everyone stands
Another day and you've had your fill of sinking
With the life held in your...
Hands are shaking cold
These hands are meant to hold

Speak to me, when all you got to keep is strong
Move along, move along like I know you do
And even when your hope is gone
Move along, move along just to make it through
Move along
Move along

So a day when you've lost yourself completely
Could be a night when your life ends
Such a heart that will lead you to deceiving
All the pain held in your...
Hands are shaking cold
Your hands are mine to hold

Speak to me, when all you got to keep is strong
Move along, move along like I know you do
And even when your hope is gone
Move along, move along just to make it through
Move along
Go on, go on, go on, go on

When everything is wrong we move along
Go on, go on, go on, go on
When everything is wrong, we move along
Along, along, along

When all you got to keep is strong
Move along, move along like I know you do
And even when your hope is gone
Move along, move along just to make it through

(x3)

Move along
Go on, go on, go on, go on

Right back what is wrong
We move along
Right back what is wrong
We move along

AWESOME! I miss you lots... can't wait! Maybe you can help me practice too:)

Oh boy, that's a long way off. But kind of not so long. Eeeeek!!!

Too bad you and Des aren't done yet and independently wealthy. I could come and be your House Girl and write books in between cooking, vacuuming and doing your dishes (of course I'd need breaks to play with that little cutiepie Smelvin;)
