Love Corrinne May's songs.. a momentary reprieve from all the exam stress.. she's really a Singaporean we ought to be proud of..

want to get her latest album cos can't seem find her songs anywhere else..
have the previous album's songs liao but not this..
New album 'Safe In A Crazy World' is nice!

if interested, go to her website at http://www.corrinnemay.com/ and u can listen to both her albums there! datz wat i did..

here's the title track of this album and i think its pretty good..


Corrinne May
-SAFE IN A CRAZY WORLD-

I try to smile my tears away
I try to keep my cool
Oh but one more door gets in my way
I feel like such a fool
Trampled and bitter
My heart just wants to bleed
and stop believing in me

It feels like nothing is for certain
and that nothing comes for free
When they're lowering the curtain
to the theatre of my dreams
I stumble and I crumble and I'm
Sinking to my knees but you
You cradle me

Chorus:
You keep me flying
You keep me smiling
You keep me safe in a crazy world
You understand me
Embrace my fragility
You keep me safe in a crazy world
And in your arms I find the strength
to believe in me again

Noise keeps chasing me
No matter where I go
Oh and life likes pretending that it's
On a TV show
When it's hard to tell what's real
From what the world just wants to preach
You are the voice I seek

You keep me flying
You keep me smiling
You keep me safe in a crazy world
You understand me
Embrace my fragility
You keep me safe in a crazy world

Bridge:
'cause when I'm wrapped up in your arms
Nothing else can touch me
What a wonderful way to recharge
I feel like I can breathe again

You keep me flying
You keep me smiling
You keep me safe in a crazy world
You understand me
Embrace my fragility
You keep me safe in a crazy world
And in your arms I find the strength
to believe in me again..

urghh.. feels horrible being imprisoned at home..

can't go anywhere, wanna do something else also cannot.. really long dreary period........

table strewn with the sea of readings dat i've to plough through.. so many papers to read, so many tiny words.. giving me a headache..

exam periods never fail to make me feel horribly depressed & allow me to experience the worst of mood swings..

sleep-deprived too, but not making much progress still..

so much to read.. so much to study.. so much to memorise.. 3 more papers.. 3 more......

ahhhh...

i am so sO STRESSED.


very neglected, by myself..

seriously think i need to pamper & cheer myself up more.

im drowningggggggg.......

sorry for being completely random & disorganised, thoughts rather fragmented now..


"手牵手一步两步三步四步望著天
看星星一颗两颗三颗四颗连成线
背对背默默许下心愿
看远方的星如果听得见
它一定实现.."

"...........想这样没担忧唱着歌一直走.."


-要手牵着手-

needs a hand and a reassuring hug.
