It's a Mad World

Nov 13, 2006 23:58

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places
Worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races
Going no where
Going no where
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression
No expression
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow
No tomorrow
No tomorrow
And I find I kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles its a very very
Mad world
Mad world

So things have been rough lately, but today was a little harder than usual. Chanel got in touch with me at work today to let me know that her father had been to the hospital. He was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer about a year ago, and it's been slow moving and difficult lately. Today though, she found out that the cancer had spread to his stomach and that he doesn't have long to live.

Granted, he's not my father, but Chanel is very important to me, and I can't imagine what it's like to know your father could die any day. The thought gives me cold chills and wracks me with chills, but I can't help thinking about it.

I've just been regularly depressed lately. Life is life you know. Going to be buying my new house at least, but it seems like such a small speck in our existance compared to the ripple effects of everything going on around me.

Soy quien soy, y no puedo cambiarlo
Eres quien eres, y no deseo perturbarlo,
Somos quien somos, Juntos hemos perdido,
Son quien son, Nuestras voces han robado
