Posted at: 5:05 PM 'Heaven is gay,' Tortoise said. which surprised me, because I'd always taken him for Christian. I know to assume is to make an ass out of you and me, as Herbie pointed out and I remember that lesson, but... the face, the stance, the righteous upholding, the tolerance, the nice-guy attitude, and I bet even the white ruff of his hair had something to do with it. so, he's not Christian. that makes me feel warm, curious and surprised... emotions are for the damned, ne? - NowonderZiononlysticksto1. The Northen Kings are actually pretty good :] and that's an understatement, because if it weren't for them, I wouldn't do the RxL vid. It's because of their actually decent, DECADENT cover that I am even making the video. God, smoking his last cigarette, bless them. :3 OhmyGod, the Fray have a new album. OhmyGod, the Fray are poets. Yeah. Religious debate in school today o.0 or a lame ripoff of what debates are supposed to be xDD More on that later. Trying not to lose my head but I have never been this scared before, Tell you what I’ll do instead, lay my body down on the floor, To forget what I’ve done, silhouette til the good lord come, All we know is distance, We’re close and then we run. Kiss away the difference, I know you hate this one. Trying not to lose your own, boxing up everything, you’ve got All you ever knew of home, you’re scared scared to see- Your mother there in the door, you wonder where did the years go? All we know is distance. We’re close and then we run, Kiss away the difference. I know you hate this one, But this is how the story ends. Or have we just begun? To kiss away the difference, I know you hate this one. The violins make no sound, And I begin to feel the ground, All we know is distance, We’re close and then we run. Kiss away the difference, I know you hate this one. But this is where the story ends, Or have we just begun... To kiss away the difference, I know you hate this one. Happiness is just outside my window Would it crash blowing 80-miles an hour? Or is happiness a little more like knocking On your door, and you just let it in? Happiness feels a lot like sorrow Let it be, you can't make it come or go But you are gone- not for good but for now Gone for now feels a lot like gone for good Happiness is a firecracker sitting on my headboard Happiness was never mine to hold Careful child, light the fuse and get away ‘Cause happiness throws a shower of sparks Happiness damn near destroys you Breaks your faith to pieces on the floor So you tell yourself, that's enough for now Happiness has a violent roar Happiness is like the old man told me Look for it, but you'll never find it all Let it go, live your life and leave it Then one day, wake up and she'll be Home, home, home. Made it fourteen city blocks without breathing Light breaks from the left and hits between the buildings Stoplights change their name from green to red to green again Love has its critics but they never keep many friends It's alright, this could be a rough night So hold tight, this is not a fair fight She up and died and left you in a fall you can not forget You were too young, you said "Not yet, not yet, not yet." That year the cherries choked from pretty pink to red to brown You looked around but she was nowhere to be found It's alright, this could be a rough night So hold tight, this is not a fair fight It's alright, this will be a rough night So hold tight, this is not a fair fight. The how I can't recall But I'm staring at what once was the wall Separating east and west Now they meet amidst the broad daylight So this is where you are, and this is where I am Somewhere between unsure and a hundred It's hard I must confess I'm banking on the rest to clear away Cause we have spoken everything Everything short of I love you You right where you are, from right where I am Somewhere between unsure and a hundred And who's to say it's wrong And who's to say that it's not right Where we should be for now So this is where you are, and this is where I am So this is where you are, and this is where I've been Somewhere between unsure and a hundred If only I knew what I know I'd make it a point to say so To everyone that got me here And everyone that made it Clear I was dead wrong all along You said it for my sake That I would not lose my way When I was astray ... I'm doing the best that I could. Trying my best to be understood Maybe I'm changing slowly I get out, turn around... If only I knew I was dead wrong all along You said it for my sake that I would not lose my way When I was dead wrong all along Mine is not a new story Mine is not a new story Mine is nothing new But it is for me So I was dead wrong all along You said it for my sake That you thought I'd lost my way When I was dead wrong all along You said it for my sake That I would not lose my way Did I really lose my way [Or are you afraid?] Not that you're the one, Not to say I'm right, Not to say today, And not to say a thing tonight. But suffice it to say We're leaving things unsaid We sing ourselves to sleep Watching the day lie down instead And we are leaving some things unsaid And we are breathing deeper instead We're both pretty sure Neither one can tell We seem difficult What we got is hard as hell A hundred thousand words could not quite explain So I walk you to your car And we can talk it out in the rain And we are leaving some things unsaid And we are breathing deeper instead And we are leaving some things unsaid I can sing myself to sleep No more Not that you're the one Not to say I'm right Not to say today And not to say a thing tonight... yes, I will put the above six songs to RxL. So be it. The city hall in my mind, met last night Rumors of reelection started to fly It's my funeral today, my funeral today I laid it down Underneath the sound It's my principle concern, my principle concern is what you say But I wanted it this way. Cause I'm throwin down without a fight You're more than welcome to look around Consult your checklist go underground I'll claim a stake here inside the frame But I'm going under another way I won't return after today So I'm at liberty to say what's on my mind And it some I like You can't watch me anymore, you can't make me like before When I was yours when all I wanted was the door So I'm throwin down without a fight You're more than welcome to look around Consult your checklist go underground I'll claim a stake here inside the frame But I'm going under another way Decision on the dock head Make up your mind and if you get consensus Drop me a line The city hall in my mind, got together last night Rumors of reelection started to fly |
