music
Everyone has one of those songs that just hits you and you can't stop listening to it, right?
Here's mine for the day:
Ben Folds Five, Video
barren stares as they light up the screen
bearing teardrops that shatter in slow-motion, no-
vocaine our brains and we're out like lights
and as I'm growing older I'm bored
and I remember when misery thrilled me much more
when I can't relax and I'd like to go back
but that's gone
yeah, that's gone
turn around turn the volume down
we're counting the days down
'til the day when we'll live in a video
I'll be stone-faced and pale
you'll pout in stereo
24 hours every day of the year
and oh what fun I can't wait 'til the future gets here
closing in on the pain and the torture
he's slamming the door like it's something to strive for
the girl tearing curtains down looks funny as hell
and a sense of humor,
can there be any doubt?
yeah, well, natural selection just weeded it out
used to keep me from laughing out loud
but that's gone we don't think that way no more
that's gone turn around
turn the volume down
we're counting the days down
'til the day when we'll live in a video
I'll be stone-faced and pale
you'll pout in stereo
24 hours every day of the year
and oh what fun I can't wait 'til the future gets here
well, I've seen some old friends sort of die
or just turn into whatever must've been inside them
(and whatever all of us had then in common)
(grew up)
and left home we don't think that way no more
turn around turn the volume down
we're counting the days down
'til the day when we'll live in a video
I'll be stone-faced and pale
you'll pout in stereo
24 hours every day of the year
and oh what fun I can't wait 'til the future gets here
I'm really excited about coming to Clemson this weekend. Improv is going to do me good, plus seeing everyone will be awesome.
Oh wait, I mean, I'm going to Harvard. They kind of sound equally unbelievable to me, when I say them aloud.
