If you have ever been in a real tragic or sad situation, the words that come out are hopelessly inadequate and kind of cliched.

Inadequate
Inadequate.
It means not enough.
Like water in a glass half full
it is insufficient.
Some necessary bit is absent.
Inadequate is deficient.
It is vitamin C
in the diet of someone suffering from scurvy.
Inadequate is precisely what you feel
when you work yourself tired
for something your heart so desired
and in the end disappoint yourself still.
Inadequate is when you lack the will
to even try because somewhere inside
you just know you will fail.
Inadequate is someone when rejected.
Something inadequate is something defective.
Inadequate can mean not deserving company
almost like you're invisible maybe,
too unimportant to like or hate.
This word 'inadequate'
resounds in my head of late.

The Party's Over (Hopelessly In Love)
Journey
(Steve Perry)
From "Captured"
You never call me up
when I'm alone at night
What can this poor boy do
when he's hopelessly in love with you
So I will tell you now
This love is falling down
Just what more can I do
When I'm hopelessly in love with you
Hopelessly in love
Hopelessly in love
Hopelessly in love with you
So I will tell you this
Our love is in abyss
Just what more can I do
When I'm hopelessly in love with you
You never call me up
When I'm alone at night
What can a poor boy do
When he's hopelessly in love with you
Hopelessly in love
Hopelessly in love
Hopelessly in love with you
Hopelessly in love
Hopelessly in love
I'm hopelessly in love with you
Ooh bye bye baby
The party's over
I have gone away
The party's over
I have gone away
The party's over
Over
The party's over
I have gone away
(Repeat and fade away)

Hopelessly Devoted To You
(john farrar)
Guess mine is not the first heart broken
My eyes are not the first to cry
Im not the first to know
Theres just no getting over you
You know Im just a fool whos willing
To sit around and wait for you
But, baby, cant you see
Theres nothing else for me to do?
Im hopelessly devoted to you
But now theres nowhere to hide
Since you pushed my love aside
Im out of my head
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
My head is saying, fool, forget him.
My heart is saying, dont let go.
Hold on till the end.
And thats what I intend to do
Im hopelessly devoted to you
But now theres nowhere to hide
Since you pushed my love aside
Im out of my head
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you

Untitled
Hopelessly adrift in the eyes of the ghost again
Down on my knees and my hands in the air again
Pushing my face in the memory of you again
But i never know if it's real never know how i
Wanted to feel never quite said what i wanted
To say to you never quite managed the words to
Explain to you never quite knew how to make
Them beleivable and now the time has gone
Another time undone hopelessly fighting the
Devil futility feeling the monster climb deeper
Inside of me feeling him gnawing my heart away
Hungrily i'll never lose this pain never dream of you again

Unique National Characters!
Which is better character among nations
Of emotional, reactionary and cold ones?
Indians react emotionally to a situation;
French react immediately and forget;
English react in a cold way to a situation.
Likewise other nations in another ways
React to a situation joyful or tragic in real life.
National characters are built on Nature, culture
That are typical and distinct with each other!
Their characteristics can be seen in sports,
Other activities of arts, culture and technology.
These traits cannot be compared and criticised
Based on the quality of each and everyone
For, they are all unique in their own ways!

Words Sometimes Take On A Own Meaning
Words sometimes take on a own meaning
and sometimes they are sharp and painful
as if there is much more to words
as if a kind of secret knowledge hides in them
that are sometimes something moving.
Words sometimes take on a own meaning
but somehow words can at times miss things
and are sometimes dependent on feelings
as if there is much more to words
when through it all love brings a kind of bonding
and so you and I are attractive to each other.
Words sometimes take on a own meaning
and daily a bond develops between us,
while you become more considerable to me,
as if there is much more to words
you constantly live in my thoughts,
while love becomes real through words.
Words sometimes take on a own meaning
as if there is much more to words…

Hopelessly
Astley/fisher
I walk the wire every night
I cant decide between wrong and right
Ive lost control over the thing I do
Cos Im hopelessly falling in love with you
Now the one who never took a chance
Becomes a victim of circumstance
Ive lost my way, now Im so confused
Cos Im hopelessly falling in love with you
All my dreams are far behind me
They dont matter any more
I dont care about the things I could lose
Cos Im hopelessly falling in love with you
Now the one who always played it safe
Becomes another whos lost his way
I cant believe it, though I know its true
Cos Im hopelessly falling in love with you
And all my dreams begin to blind me
And I was so confused
And I dont care about the things I could lose
Cos Im hopelessly falling in love with you
Im not gonna fight it, Im gonna choose
To hopelessly fall, oh yeah
You know Ill hopelessly fall in love, with you

Sinking Deeper Each Day
Feels like the real me sinks deeper each day...
when a friend tragic says this what can we say?
“like the real me” hey
time to find that real you
reaffirm be that real you
believe free that real you
do not be a pale shadow of yourself
do not be a single particle less than yourself
believe in embrace ethos be yourself

Hopelessly In Love
Sometimes we fall that little further
and become hopelessly in love.
Cupid shoots his arrow a little deeper
than he really intended to
and you fall head over heels
hopelessly in love
and there is nothing you can do.
Everywhere everything is singing
from the birds to the leaves on the trees.
Your heart beats rapidly
every time you see them pass by.
You’re hopelessly in love
with that special dream,
always hoping above hope
that you will catch their eye.
Your head is amongst the clouds
day after day.
Then they stop and smile at you,
you smile back and whispery say
“I am hopelessly in love with you.”

Endlessly
there's a part in me you'll never know
the only thing I'll never show
hopelessly I'll love you endlessly
hopelessly I'll give you everything
but I won't give you up
I won't let you down
and I won't leave you falling
If the moment ever comes
It's plain to see it's trying to speak
cherished dreams forever asleep
hopelessly I'll love you endlessly
hopelessly I'll give you everything
but I won't give you up
I won't let you down
and I won't leave you falling
if the moment ever comes
hopelessly I'll love you endlessly
hopelessly I'll give you everything
but I won't give you up
I won't let you down
and I won't leave you falling
but the moment never comes

Branded
Tragic is the self misplaced.
Tragic is a lost identity...
And no familiarity on anyone's face.
Tragic in denial
Sits the misfits feeling on trial
For lives lived reeking and stinking of bile.
Tragic for them,
Love is not recognized at all...
Nor suitable to start,
From a place within them that begins.
And this becomes tragic for those
Unlike them but comprehending,
These tragedies
May not always be self inflicted...
As they are branded!

Strikes and cracks
Whomever the love strikes,
On them it makes cracks, sooner or later.
Inadequate perception and inadequate
Reception provide the cause.

Hopelessly Human
It's a strange aberration, this brainstorm of youth
Though it's lost in translation from fancy to truth
It's hopelessly human, both inside and out
A joyous occasion, there's no reason to doubt
It's easy somehow, what once was elusive
Is calling me now
I am waiting, I am patiently
Doing nothing, in a reverie
Climbing higher, seeing everything
Interacting, slowly spiralling
I am giving, while I'm watching the
Life I'm living, precious energy
Escalating, what was once just a game,
It's never the same, no one's to blame
It's a strange situation, there's no cause for alarm
All these hot licks and rhetoric, surely do you no harm
They're hopelessly human, both inside and out
A joyous occasion, there's no reason to doubt
When each word is read, would you know the difference
If nothing was said?
All is rythm, all is unity
I am laughing, as it's meant to be
Just amusing, I am using the
Word was given, making harmony
Moving slowly, dancing aimlessly
Endless circle, turning fearlessly
Resurrected, falling down again
Introspective, I'm just stating my view
Now you can choose, what do you feel,
Is it for real this time?
Your request matches 1 albums and 9 songs

Hopelessly Addicted
Opened my eyes today
And I knew there's something different
Saw you in a brand new way
Like the clouds had somehow lifted
And if yesterday I heard
Myself saying these words
I would swear it was a lie
I don't know why but suddenly I'm falling
Was I so blind
I was loving you all the time
Now I'm hopelessly addicted
Helplessly attracted
I'll make a wish this day
And I'll send it to the heavens
That we will always stay
Entwined like this forever
And though the world may change
Coz nothing stays the same
I know we will survive
I don't know why but suddenly I'm falling
I was so blind
I was loving you all the time
Now I'm hopelessly addicted
Naturally we acted
I don't know why but suddenly I'm falling
I was so blind
I was loving you all the time
And now I'm
Hopelessly addicted
Helplessly attracted
Chemically reacted
Naturally we acted
I was loving you all the time
Hopelessly addicted
Helplessly attracted
Chemically reacted
Naturally we acted
Yeah
