I liek this song. I prolly put it up a million times. oh well..
Jan lays down and wrestles in her sleep
Moonlight spills on comic books
And superstars in magazines
An old friend calls and tells us where to meet
Her plane takes off from Baltimore
And touches down on Bourbon street
We sit outside and argue all night long
About a god we've never seen
But.never.fails.to.side.with.me
Sunday comes and all the papers say
Ma Teresa's joined the mob
And happy with her full time job
Am I alive or thoughts that drift away?
Does summer come for everyone?
Can humans do what prophets say?
If I die before I learn to speak
Can money pay for all the days I lived awake
But half asleep?
A life is time, they teach you growing up
The seconds ticking killed us all
A million years before the fall
You ride the waves and don't ask where they go
You swim like lions through the crest
And bathe yourself in zebra flesh
I've been downhearted baby
Ever since the day we met
--Life update
--I work all the time
--when im not doing that i watch tv
--I am truly a bum
--I'm in love with all of my tv shows
--When sam comes back from school on the weekends i spend 3 1/2 days trying to let it all be okay, but i always seem to almost cry when he goes back.
--Our 3 year anniversary is coming up
--that's a long ass time :0
--Halloween is coming up too, i wanna be an Indian princess.
--I'm reading two books. Legends of New jersey and Bright shiny morning
--Now that it's cold i want a cigarette more than ever.
--it's harder with sam not here, to keep away.
--You'd prolly tell me to just do it
--to just do what makes me happy.
--you might no, but i think you still would
--you'd offer me
--so you could have a buddy again, but i guess you have enough of those now.
--I hope i amount to something one day.
--not something huge, just someone who makes a difference with some people.
--Maybe one day, I'll write a book.
--but only if it's right.
I walk the streets of Japan till I get lost
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
With a graveyard tan carrying a cross
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like studying faces in a parking lot
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like driving backwards in the fog
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
[Chorus]
The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
I won't lie no more you can bet
I don't want to learn what I'll need to forget
I like gypsy moths and radio talk
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like gospel music and canned applause
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like colorful clothing in the sun
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I ilke hammering nails and speaking in tongues
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
[Chorus]
The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
I won't lie no more you can bet
I don't want to learn what I'll need
Bend and shape me
I love the way you are
Slow and sweetly
Like never before
Calm and sleeping
We won't stir up the past
So descretely
We won't look back
[Chorus]
The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
I won't lie no more you can bet
I don't want to learn what I'll need
I like throwing my voice and breaking guitars
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like playing in the sand what's mine is ours
If it doesn't remind me of anything
<3--
