Song: Use Me Up
Artist: Hanson
 
I think I've already posted this song somewhere on my blog, but it's such a beautiful song, it's worth repeating. And it's about that longing for finding love. Which is what all we single ladies want at the end of the day, right? Love. But, in no way, shape or form am I encouraging or promoting that the "physical" love of a man is the most important thing. Do not become so desperate that you are willing to give yourself away, lose your innocence and purity, to fulfill yours (or someone else's) passion and desires. Do not think, because you may not have experienced intimacy with someone, it makes you "old-fashioned" "undesirable" "lame" "behind the times" etc. Waiting for the right person that you know you can love, honor and be committed to for the rest of life, and that person can do the same for you, will be so worth it! The phrase "Use Me Up" may suggest, to some, that that is all the person (in the song) desires, to be used. But when I listen to this song, I think the message is the desire to feel love and to feel desired. To feel something. Even if it might not last. They're desperate. Hurting. I think it's such a beautiful song. I love it.
 
 
Somebody let me down
Somebody show me love
I wouldn't care much either way

I'd rather the sticks and stones
Than dragging the ball and chain
Of what if the world won't take me

Even if the hole should crack
Even if the blood flows red
Nothing could be worse than numb
So please, use me up
I just want anyone
To use me up
'Cause no one ever does
Use me up
I've carried it all too long
The fear of the pain it brings
Feeling the panic building up

I'd rather the broken heart
Than live in the emptiness
Of what if the world won't take me

Even if the bow should break
Even if the blood runs cold
Nothing could be worse than numb
Please, use me up
I just want anyone
To use me up
'Cause no one ever does
Use me up
Use me up
Treat me some way cruel
You could throw me away
As long as I feel it
Show me something real
You can't deceive me
I am yours to use

Use me up [x3]

Morticia and Gomez Addams Love Song: "Rot Next to You"

Song: Morticia and Gomez Addams Love Song: "Rot Next to You" Artist: The Hound + The Fox Wow this is so good! 🥀 So, funny enough, I just watched the 1990's Addams Family film for the first time eva a couple days ago and then  this video pops up on my youtube feed (if this isn't proof that the government is stalking us through technology IDK what is! 😱). Anyway, even though I didn't care for the movie all that much, I thought this song captured Morticia and Gomez perfectly! And it's actually a really, beautiful love song for Halloween time! I especially like the bridge (and I'm pretty sure it's a direct quote from the movie because when I heard them singing it I was like "That sounds familiar...." 🤔). We all need somebody to rot next to at the end.... 😂 Sorry about the dark humor 😈🖤🥀 I see you like  A night with a full moon  I feel you like a flame  You cast a spell on me  I like how you make me weak  I play you like a game  I hope w

Siren Call

Song: Siren Call Artist: Hanson This song is off of Hanson's Fan Club EP: Loud (2016). I have been slightly obsessed with this haunting song as of late. This song is about dealing with depression ( Zac Hanson even said so ! Be forewarned, explicit language is used in this video. I'm so sorry). Once I heard Zac explain the meaning and message behind this song it made so much sense to me! I have always loved it and I've always known it had a powerful message but I could never quite figure out what it was. This song is about struggling. Being weighed-down by the burdens and challenges life brings to each and every one of us. When we stop and allow ourselves to "give in" to the pain and sadness that comes with the stress of life, that's when we begin to slip and fall into a deep depression. That's when our "Siren's Call" us. And pull us down. No straighter path than to struggle .... This is perfect. And it's true. Life is a constan

Song: Sally's Song and Corpse Bride Medley Artist: From Youtube I found this really creepy, cool medley/cover on youtube. I really like it! Major  Halloween  vibes from two  Halloween  inspired movies. The  Corpse Bride  lyrics were written by the person who posted/sang this song. She does a great job! Thanks for sharing  Trickywi ! I sense there's something in the wind That feels like tragedy's at hand And though I'd like to stand by him Can't shake this feeling that I have The worst is just around the bend And does he notice my feelings for him? And will he see how much he means to me? I think it's not to be Under a tree at quarter three, I had some hope in me But life was taken from me, but I did not feel peace I made a vow within my gown that love will come to me But there he is and suddenly I had been found I adore him What will become of my dear friend Where will his actions lead us then? Although I'd like to join the crowd In their enth
