Tougher Than The Rest

source

Lately, I have been playing this Bruce Springsteen cover by Camera Obscura on loop. She has the cutest accent and a sweet voice. Plus, I also feel like I can relate to this song at this point in my life. I feel tougher than before, maybe a bit jaded but still open to love...because...love is grand. 

Well it ain’t no secret 

I’ve been around a time or two 

                                         Well I don’t know baby maybe you’ve been around too 

Well there’s another dance

 All you gotta do is say yes

 And if you’re rough and ready for love

 Honey I’m tougher than the rest

 If you’re rough enough for love

 Baby I’m tougher than the rest

Sometimes, I love the internet.

It's a little blurry and quiet but this is great scene (among many) from the movie Take This Waltz. 

Makes me want to go on a ride with someone I have a crush on. 

(Minus the awkward part at the end of course.)

Something has me

I am sick with wantingAnd it's evil and it's dauntingHow I let everything I cherish lay to wasteI am lost in greed this time, it's definitely meI point fingers but there's no one there to blame
I need for somethingNo, let me break it down againI need for somethingBut not more medicineI am sick with wantingAnd it's evil how it's got me
And everyday is worse than the one beforeThe more I have the more I think:I'm almost where I need to beIf only I could get a little more
I need for somethingNow let me break it down againI need for somethingBut not more medicineSomething has me (Something has me)Oh something has me (Something has me)Acting like someone I don't wanna beSomething has me (Something has me)Oh something has me (Something has me)Acting like someone I know isn't meIll with want and poisoned by this ugly greed
Temporary is my timeAin't nothin on this world that's mineExcept the will I found to carry onFree is not your right to chooseIt's answering what's asked of youTo give the love you find until it's gone
I need for somethingNow let me break it down againI need for somethingBut not more medicineSomething has me (Something has me)Oh something has me (Something has me)Acting like someone I don't wanna beSomething has me (Something has me)Oh something has me (Something has me)Acting like someone I know isn't meIll with want and poisoned by this ugly greedIll with want and poisoned by this ugly greed
