song of the day.

Maybe I’m doing something right.

My daughter’s favorite music to listen to right now is Panic! At The Disco… a band that took their name from a song by The Smiths. Of course they’re good.

My girl can be a challenge at times… and she’s only 10. I’m scared for her teenage years. But at least the soundtrack will be good…

This Is Gospel | Panic! At The Disco

This is gospel, for the fallen ones
Locked away in permanent slumber
Assembling their philosophies
From pieces of broken memories

Oh-oh-oh
This is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my heart
Oh-oh-oh
This is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my heart
The gnashing teeth and criminal tongues
Conspire against the odds
But they haven’t seen the best of us yet

If you love me let me go (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
If you love me let me go (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
‘Cause these words are knives that often leave scars
The fear of falling apart
And truth be told I never was yours
The fear, the fear of falling apart
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
This is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my heart
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
This is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my…

This is gospel for the vagabonds
Ne’er-do-wells and insufferable bastards
Confessing their apostasies
Led away by imperfect impostors

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
This is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my heart
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
This is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my…

Don’t try to sleep through the end of the world
And bury me alive
‘Cause I won’t give up without a fight

If you love me let me go (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
If you love me let me go (Oh-oh-o-oh-oh-oh)
‘Cause these words are knives that often leave scars
The fear of falling apart

And truth be told I never was yours
The fear, the fear of falling apart
[…]

  2. You’re doing more than one thing right. Now, she needs to be able to identify any Led Zeppelin song in under 5 notes, and she’s golden. 😃😃

    Ahhh I love Panic! At The Disco. My favorite song by them is Lying Is The Most Fun A Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off and The Only Difference Between Martyrdom And Suicide Is Press Coverage! ♡
