new music new life.
It must have been a month since you last loved me
And I havent slept a wink I hope you care
And I went to hell and back for half an hour
And started a staring contest with your man
And I was a cage, I was a cage, I was a cage
A cage to you, a cage to you
And it has to been a year since I was sober
And I made a point to pinch my skin again
Its any minute now that I will wake you
Watching a woman sleep can get you scared
But I am a cage, I am a cage, I am a cage
Surrounding you, surrounding you
But I am afraid, I am afraid, that I'm afraid
Of the truth, inside of you
I could use a friend to say they love me
But I'm gonna make a sound you cant forget
And afterwards I swore that I would haunt you
Now I'm way too tired to give a shit
Cause I was a wave, yeah, I was a wave, a wave
Collapsing you, collapsing you
Yeah I was a wave, I was a wave, I was a wave
Collapsing you, collapsing you
I am away, I am away, I am away
Coming up to you, to you
Well I was away, I was away, I was away

Lately I have been blessed to have two wonderful men in my life who have introduced me to fantastic new music. Charles made me fall in love with The Honorary Title and Brandon is making me fall in love with a whole slew of bands that I am totally digging but didn't know of before. So as it usually happens, getting out of my musicbox has caused me to realize that I need to get out of my proverbial safebox too. I wrote some about this yesterday and I don't intend to go into it again today. Suffice to say, I had a nice long conversation with Brandon last night about it and I realized it's time for me to stop shutting myself off to meeting new people.
So there's that.
by the way... I had dinner with Kristin last night, we went to high school together, and hadn't seen each other for 5 years. It was amazingly fun and I can't wait to hang with her again! I love picking up right where you left off with old friends...
that goes double for favorite old friends who live on the dreamy east coast... you. yeah, you darlin' ;)
