You'll Pick Me Up (I Hope)

In this blog, I'll mention some lines from songs by the band Angels and Airwaves. I'm a big fan of blink-182. Since the latter is in an indefinite "hiatus," as they would like to call it, and the former is the offspring of Tom DeLonge, blink-182's electric (and eccentric) guitarist, I became fond of AVA's music. (AVA is the abbreviation of Angels and Airwaves, as the said band would like it to be abbreviated.)

"If you’re gonna to fall, Ill let you know that I will pick you up like you for I," Angels and Airwaves on the song "The Adventure". That's what I'll do. I'll pick her up, and she'll do the same for me. I hope.

"I cannot live, I can’t breathe unless you do this with me," again from "The Adventure." A little exaggerated but, still, it works. I wouldn't want to live without her. I wouldn't be like this if not for her.

Small things make big differences. While I was in a state of recovery from the downward spiral that I was in, I became more oriented with what I would want to be. And I want to be with her.

I'm simple, and I want simple things. Small things mean a lot to me. Like somebody to hold on to. I have no other person in mind that I would want to hold on to.

"Please stay until I'm gone. I'm here. Hold on to me. I'm right here... waiting..." "Not Now" was one of blink-182's last singles before entering the "hiatus." I would really want to see them back in action again.

I'm here. Hold on to me. I'm right here... waiting... I'm right here, waiting for you. It's 11:22pm, twenty-seventh of September 2006. Almost a month has passed since you came into my life again, and I want you to stay, until I'm gone. And when I fall, I hope you'll pick me up.
