Meaningful Lyrics

"What's Forever For"

I've been looking at people
And how they change with the times
And lately all I've been seeing are people
Throwing love away and losing their minds
Or maybe it's me that's gone crazy'
Cause I can't understand why
All these people keep hurting each other
When good love is so hard to come by

So what's the glory in living
Doesn't anybody ever stay together anymore
And if love never lasts forever
Tell me what's forever for

I've been listening to people
And they say love is the key
And it's not my way to let them lead me astray
It's only that I want to believe
But I see love-hungry people
Trying their best to survive
While in their hands is a dying romance
And they're not even trying to keep it alive

So what's the glory in living
Doesn't anybody ever stay together anymore
And if love never lasts forever
Tell me what's forever for


I love this lyrics.
I hope people can live by the lyrics
To everyone who is out looking for love...
Before you find it, learn how to treasure it first.

The story behind my msn nick - Faye Faye

image source: google images

Faye Faye aka Faye Valentine is a character from Cowboy Bebop, MY NUMBER ONE favourite anime

I really love this anime... Not just your normal jap anime... but one that makes you ponder about life... even the soundtrack of this anime is real good! If you are an anime lover. This is one tat u CANNOT miss. This could well be the BEST anime i will ever see

Needless to say... my nick fayefaye comes from Faye Valentine. The female bounty hunter in this anime.

Ok, maybe i should talk more about the anime, then give a proper introduction to FAYE VALENTINE!


Spike Spiegel, a bounty Hunter with a dark past, lives on bounty to bounty, barely making it each time, or not making it at all. His partners Jet Black, Faye Valentine, Ed and Ein the dog all help him in his adventures from planet to planet.

About Faye Valentine...



Name: Faye Valentine
Birthday: August 14
Age: 23
Sign: Leo
Blood Type: B
Height: 168cm


Background/History:
Like Spike Spiegel, Faye Valentine is a person without a past. However, unlike Spike, who simply doesn't talk about his past, Faye has no idea what her past is.

Her earliest memories are being awakened from cold sleep three years ago and of being told she'd been frozen for over fifty years after a serious accident of some sort. Promptly saddled with an enormous debt (300,028,000 woolongs to be exact), Faye fled and has been on the run ever since.

If Spike Spiegel is the leading man, then Faye Valentine is definitely the leading lady of Cowboy Bebop. She is cool, confident (well, most of the time) , and not afraid to take a risk if it means getting her hands on the bounty first.

Yes, Faye Valentine is a bounty hunter. She is daring and competitive, and has managed to win the prize from Spike on several occasions. She always comes prepared. She has communications devices and tiny gadgets hidden in her jewelry that help her get out of many tight situations.

Like Spike Spiegel, much of Faye Valentine's past is cloaked in mystery, but apparently she has an impossibly large debt looming over her that perhaps provides some of her motivation and enthusiasm for her bounty hunter work.

She is also a lot older than she looks, thanks to some sort of cryo-chamber. Lets just say that the modern world took quite a bit of getting used to for Faye :)

Faye is a gal you want to avoid in a shooting match or a card game. Not only is she an experienced gambler, she also pilots her own ship.

Similar to Spike's Swordfish II, Faye's Redtail is light and maneuverable. It is responsible for getting Faye away from many unpleasant situations. All she has to do is send out a signal from one of her bracelets, and the Redtail arrives on auto-pilot ready for her to take control.

Faye is Spike's rival, yet she has managed to invite herself to live aboard the Bebop on occasion. Of course her time on the Bebop is usually either spent in handcuffs while Jet and Spike rummage through her belongings, or lounging around tormenting poor Ein the dog (who she does not get along with) and waiting for news of a bounty she can race ahead and try to beat Spike at acquiring


Quotes:
"I'm alone. I don’t want comrades... and it's worth having any. I end up worrying about things I don't have to..."
"They often say humans cannot live alone... but you can live pretty long by yourself."
