Never Be Like Yesterday

When I paint, I typically listen to melancholy moody borderline slit your wrist, music. Not because I want to fillet my dainty woman wrist but because I paint women of strong emotion. Vive Voce's "Never Be Like Yesterday", has beautiful building piano work that invokes an almost serene image...until you get to the lyrics, you don't realize how sad this song is and how you can feel the writer's frustrations over fighting with a love one. We've all been there...

This song came on this morning and tugged at me a bit. It, as well as the whole album, is highly suggested:

"So here comes the morning sun,

and I can't believe that we're not done.

My eyes are swollen - face is numb...

...am I still talking?

But it's never gonna be like yesterday

Cause we can't fight that way

Guess I'll be the bigger man

and drive my point till it's dead

Make you see where it went wrong

So we can stay up all night long

But it's never gonna be like yesterday

Cause we can't fight that way

So when it comes to push and shove

the knives come out before the gloves

and all the hits below the belt

still hurt long after they're dealt

But it's never gonna be like yesterday

Cause we can't fight that way"
