another place to fall


Are you proud
To have founded a brand new behaviour/With hatred and hurt as your saviour
But nobody's choosing to follow/So you choke back the tears and you swallow
/.../
Find yourself another place to fall/Find yourself up against another brick wall
See yourself as a fallen angel/Well I don't see no holes in the road but you
Find another place to fall"

a long december

"And it’s been a long December and there’s no reason to believe
Maybe this year will be better than the last
I can’t remember all the times I tried to tell myself
To hold on to these moments as they pass

And it's one more day up in the canyon
And it's one more night in Hollywood
It's been so long since I've seen the ocean...I guess I should" --Counting Crows

rodeo clowns

"Bright lights flashin' to cover up/Your lack of soul
Many people, so many problems,
So many reasons to buy another round drink it down
Just another night on the town
With the big man, money man/Better than the other man
He got the plan with the million dollar/Give a damn
But nobody understands/He'll become a smaller man
.../The bright lights keep flashing
With the clowns yeah, yeah, yeah/Pick me up when I'm down yeah, yeah
The Rodeo Clowns yeah, yeah, yeah/Pick me up when I'm down yeah, yeah" --Jack Johnson

bottoms up

high strung

"Everyone believes/In how they think it ought to be
Everyone believes/And they're not going easily
Belief is a beautiful armor/But makes for the heaviest sword
Like punching under water/You never can hit who you're trying for
Some need the exhibition/And some have to know they tried
It's the chemical weapon/For the war that's raging on inside" --John Mayer

"I don't know where I go - but I know I drive alone

missed the 100000 milestone, had things going on and didn't shoot the odometer clicking over. this is just as good, triple tens. 101010. binary for the answer to life, the universe and everything else. the outside air temperature is also significant, if you got the first reference.

Can't move on/but I can't go home
and I'm not so strong/but I'll make my way
to the place I know/inside my heart
where I used to go to get brave
and I don't want to be lost anymore" --Esthero


amazing how often i get lost even with satnav.

have a voice

pick your poison

"I dreamed I was missing...

After my dreaming/I woke with this fear
What am I leaving/When I'm done here
I'm strong on the surface/Not all the way through
I've never been perfect/But neither have you
So if you're asking me/I want you to know
When my time comes /Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some/Reasons to be missed
Don't resent me/And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory/Leave out all the rest"
--Linkin Park
