--lyrics to "mr. brightside," my favorite song of the moment:
I'm coming out of my cage
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag
Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head
But she's touching his-chest
Now, he takes off her dress
Now, let me go
I just can't look it's killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
'Cause I'm Mr. Brightside
ahhhhh that song. i <3 it to death.
so much has happened...that i wish either a) hadn't or b) i could forget, a la "eternal sunshine of the spotless mind." but life doesn't work like that, and i have to deal.
in happy news, i had an awesome birthday, complete with a house party at lilli's, a beach party, and an (upcoming) outing with marni and steph to hooters and to other "18 year old places." i'll let you use your imagination on that one guys ;)
i've been living in the dream world that i'm going to see everyone despite the fact that we're all moving out, moving on, growing up. i'm finally realizing that this is not the case, and it's...depressing, to say the least. if you are one of those kids leaving in the next couple of weeks, and i haven't seen/talked to you in awhile but we've left it as "let's get together for coffee soon," please please please call me/IM me/whatever. (varty, this especially means you!!)
alright, guys, lots of love...
