So I am sitting in front of my computer getting a play list together so that I have something play while I try to fall asleep. Some of these songs that I chose to be on this list have some memories that I thought I would share.
1) Slide, Iris - Both by the Goo Goo Dolls
These two songs remind me about my older sister, when she was still living with my mom and myself. I remember loving these songs when I first heard them, but did not want to tell her I liked them because I felt that I would be considered gay/weak. These songs just make me wish I could go back in time to when my sister still lived here because I miss her being here. The other memory I have of the Iris song was when WWE wrestler Eddie Guerrero died from heart failure, the WWE released a video with this song in the background. Here is that video if anybody cares to watch it.

Hearing these songs bring out a lot of emotion in me because I just wish that I could go back in time to the first time that I heard these songs, just for a moment, so that I could savor the memories I had with my sister.
Life is a beautiful thing.
2) Blurry - Puddle of Mudd
When my little sister had her first back surgery she really liked this song. I remember walking into see her with all of the surgical tubes running in and out of her while this song was playing in the background. She is a very strong girl, and I wish that things could have worked out for her better, but she would probably disagree with me since she is so stubborn lol.
I have probably never said it to my sisters, and I probably never will, but I love them very much and wish that we could relive some of the memories we had when we were younger.
3) Meant to Live - Switchfoot
Back when I was still in middleschool, this song was played for me by Amanda Fiscus with her then bf Jarred Bunnelle sitting in the passenger seat. The two of them come to mind when I hear of this song. The three of us were once great friends, but something happened and changed that along the way. I care for them very much and wish that we could go back to the way that was when the three of us were sitting in that Explorer that afternoon.
4) Bittersweet Symphony - The Verve
On the way to Walmart to meet my friend Ellie, this song came on in the car while I was shuffling my ipod. It was close to graduation and I am not sure why, but I started to cry. The lyrics to this song was so overpowering at that time and I couldn't help myself. To this day, I still don't know why I cried, maybe it was because I was about to see me and all of my friends go off to college knowing that Tim, andy, and ellie wouldn't attend class with me ever again or maybe it was because I was scared of what the future had in mind for me. I will never know.
5) Broken - Seether featuring Amy Lee
The only serious relationship I have ever been in was with a girl named Carrie Morse. She was a nice girl and I cared for her very much when we were in a relationship together back when I was a sophmore. I remember buying and burning the cd for her because she said how much she enjoyed this particular song. I think of Carrie when I hear this song, and I am glad that I experienced what I did with her. I hope that she is taking care of herself, and maybe we will run into each other some day down the road.
