So it really just kinda sucks being the only person you can go to to be held. I mean, holding me in my arms just doesn't really do the trick, you konw?
what i'm saying is that having to internalize all of my emotions makes me really depressed after a while....which really sucks, because it's not as though I have any high-grade emotions that really need venting. It's just my usual low-level emo-ness. but it builds up. and if i vent it with my friends i feel really awkward and innappropriate and out of place. which only makes things worse.
I just learnedabout Nick Drake's history, and now I'm kinda bummed out. He was such a tortured genius...he still sounds so fresh. see, i thought he was contemporary, and then i go and find out he's been dead for 30 years. I mean, shit. I mean, I thought he was amazing when I thought he was new. that's EXTRA-awesomeness for being way dead. I mean, not to diss on the old greats, or say that they're not as good as musicians now, but Nick Drake's music just feels so...new, and vital. I mean, it's like modern cutting-edge. and it's 30 years old. kick ass. but he's dead. and that sucks. I shall learn his songs. for my not-band.
