For those not in the know, Urq has us keep a journal for his class. Here's part of mine from a while ago, that I read last night.
::He wakes up in the morning/ Does his teeth, bite to eat and he's rolling/ Never changes a thing/ The week end, the week begins/ She thinks, we look at each other/ Wondering what the other is thinking/ But we never say a thing/ And these crimes between us grow deeper/ Take these chances/ Place them in a box until a/ Quieter time, lights down you up and die::
I've been listening to this song alot. I didn't write all of the lyrics, because I'm lazy, but it totally makes me think of right now. Everyday is the same as the other. School has gotten to be so monotonous. And then it talks about how people don't really worry about each other anymore. We look and interpret, but don't ask. Or if we do, it's out of courtesy, not genuine concern. The people in our society have become so wrapped up in their own personal dramas, that they don't worry about each other.
This entire entry was prompted by my friends. Those who get worried whenever it's convenient for them.
::Driving along this highway/ All these cars upon the sidewalk/ People in every direction/ No words exchanged, no time to exchange when/ All the little ants are marching/ Red and black antennae waving/ They all do it the same/ They all do it the same way::
People seem to be so predictable now. I know when someone will stop and talk. I know when they will just keep walking, caught inside their own thoughts. When they stop, it's because they think I'm upset with them for some reason or another. And if I am, I don't need them in my face asking about it, you know? If I'm upset, I want and need time to myself. If my anger and disappointment are allowed to speak, things will be said that don't do anything except hurt those involved. I have a pretty bad temper. I also have a quickly receding temper. I get intensely upset for like, a day, and then I realize, "I'm in high school, this is the typical shit that EVERYONE deals with. I shouldn't get so upset about it. I have the rest of my life to deal with people." High school is supposed to be the "best years of my life". This crap with girls- it's never really boys- isn't something to dwell upon. You know?

That was written awhile ago. Ten points if you can name the song.
