These Words by Natasha Bedingfield

<p>have you guys heard this song?</p>

<p>I never liked it, but now that today I am trying to start writing my essays for the ED application this song keeps coming to my mind. It fits so well, as though it was written specifically for the people who are writing essays for college apps.</p>

<p>the song has a whole new appreciation for me now.</p>

<p>for people who haven’t heard the song, here are the lyrics:</p>

<p>These words are my own </p>

<p>Threw some chords together, the combination D-E-F
Its who I am, its what I do, and I was gonna lay it down for you
I tried to focus my attention, but I feel so A-D-D
I need some help, some inspiration, but its not coming easily </p>

<p>(bridge)
Tryin to find the magic,
Tryin to write a classic,
Dontcha know, dontcha know, dontcha know?
Wastebin full of paper,
clever rhymes- see ya later </p>

<p>(chorus)
These words are my own, from my heart flow,
I love you, i love you, i love you, i love you,
There’s no other way to better say
I love you, i love you </p>

<p>Read some Byron Shelley and Keates,
recited it over a hip-hop beat
I’m havin trouble sayin what i mean,
with dead poets and a drum machine </p>

<p>You know i had some studio time booked,
but i couldnt find the killer hook,
now you’re gonna raise the bar right up,
nothin i write is ever good enough </p>

<p>(repeat chorus twice) </p>

<p>I’m gettin off my stage
the curtains pull away
No hyperboles to hide behind
My naked soul exposes
woaaaaah </p>

<p>(repeat bridge)
(repeat chorus
I love you I love you, thats all i got to say
cant think of a better way, and thats all i got to say
I love you, is that ok?</p>

<p>Haha, that’s hilarious. I love that song.</p>

<p>wow, this thread emerged again after quite some time</p>

<p>yeah…that was me when I was trying to write essays</p>

<p>now i am in a totally different phase…now I just want my acceptance letter ASAP. I ened up writing all my essays on Halloween night and submiting my app at the very last moment</p>

<p>good luck to all RDers.
well us EDers need luck too…I really hope I and bunch of others from CC get in ED.</p>
