Emmy is Fabulous


Not only is she gorgeous, she is an amazing singer.

Her CD recently came out, and I of course bought it, and I absolutely adore it. It is so good it sent shivers up my spine the first time I listened. It is simply, beautiful. It is a different style than most pop music, so I would say it is not for everyone, but I can't get enough of it.

These are the lyrics from my favorite song on the album:

Anymore | by Emmy Rossum
When she was younger, stood staring at the door
Waiting for the day that she knew would surely come
Tied bows in her hair, dressed as she thought you'd like
But as time ticked away, promises fade one by one

And now she's all grown
Made it through on her own
Now strong enough to see
That you've been where you want to be

No longer dying inside
I will not let you define
Everything I am by one thing that I don't have
'Cause I'm more than that
I will not be made to hide
These tears won't fall for you this time
I will not be ashamed of my name anymore

Sometimes she wonders, imagines what you're like
The emptiness inside that made you miss her life
The ocean's widen with all your silence
Leaves the daydreams behind, childish fantasies unwind

And now she knows you're not coming home
Take the bows from her hair
She's been waiting twenty years

No longer dying inside
I will not let you define
Everything I am by one thing that I don't have
Cause I'm more than that
I will not be made to hide
These tears won't fall for you this time
I will not be ashamed of my name anymore


Might sound a little sad, but to me, it sounded so real. And I like real.
