Dreams of a Better Day

Song: Dreams of a Better Day
Artist: Kurt Bestor performed by Judd Maher
 
Please ;)
 
This song is from an old "feel good" movie from the 90's called The Buttercream Gang. My family and I watched this film on Sunday. It's horrendously cheesy yes, but the message is beautiful.
 
This song has really stood out to me. I've been listening/singing it a lot. I don't know why. I'm going through a hard time with self-acceptance and just loving myself. I wish I could be a kid again. I liked who I was back then. I felt good about myself. Why did I have to go and grow up? And get insecure? Also, it makes me think of my brother. He's going through a really hard time. I hope he can find his way back. To true peace, joy and happiness.
 
"Bring back those rains and wash my cares away. Then dry my eyes with the sunlight. And on that star only one small wish I pray, bring me home again."
 
"Won't you please tell me where to find her? And that life with a story book end? Can't you please tell me where to find her? Maybe she's found in a fairy tale with those dreams of a better day."
 
 
Looking back on a younger man
Long ago and far away
Living in an age of innocence
In the shadows of a brighter day
Time stood still and it never seemed
That our worlds could grow apart
It was all for one, and one for all
Straight from the heart

Those summer rains
That we hoped would never end
Wash away troubles and sorrow
And starry nights when each wish came true
Can’t you send all those yesterday to tomorrow?
Won’t you please tell me where to find him?
And that life with a story book end?
Can’t you please tell me where you find him?
Maybe’s he’s found in a fairy tale
With those dream of a better day

Life on the streets has taught me
To see the world through different eyes
What was love your neighbor as yourself
Now hides behind the lies
You start thinking you can have it all
The world is yours to take
So you fill your cup with emptiness
And promises you make

Bring back these rains
And wash my cares away
And dry my eyes with the sun light
And on that star only one small wish I pray
Bring him home again

Won’t you please tell me where to find him?
And that life with a story book end?
Can’t you please tell me where you find him?
Maybe’s he’s found in a fairy tale
With those dream of a better day

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
