July 31. 2008

It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It don't matter, anyhow
And it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
If you don't know by now
When your rooster crows at the breaks of dawn
Look out your window and I'll be gone
You're the reason I'm traveling on
Don't think twice, it's all right.

It ain't no use in turning on your light, babe
That light I never knowed
And it ain't no use in turning on your light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road
But I wish there was somethin' you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
We never did too much talking anyway
So don't think twice, it's all right.

So long honey, babe
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
Goodbye's too good a word, babe
So I'll just say fare thee well
I ain't saying you treated me unkind
You could have done better but I don't mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don't think twice, it's all right.

Near To You - A Fine Frenzy

He and I had something beautiful
But so dysfunctional, it couldn't last
I loved him so but I let him go
'Cause I knew he'd never love me back

Such pain as this
Shouldn't have to be experienced
I'm still reeling from the loss,
Still a little bit delirious

Near to you, I am healing
But it's taking so long
'Cause though he's gone
And you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Yet, I'm better near to you.

You and I have something different
And I'm enjoying it cautiously
I'm battle scarred, I am working oh so hard
To get back to who I used to be

He's disappearing
Fading suddelly
I'm so close to being yours
Won't you stay with me
Please
Fastest summer yet.

raw

pieces of glass everywhere
it once was whole 
it once was beautiful
shards of glass is all one sees
the glamour of life has died
every tear has been cried
everything seems old
no one dares to be bold
nothing original left to do
it seems like there's nothing life can offer you
everyone is broken
everyone is messed up
everyone lacks pure love
it seems like we're all so selfish

Mister

she's consumed with conviction
but he...
his life bounces that line
between non-fiction and fiction
every day isn't a reality
why do you choose to live in a lie

Michelle


Her computer is a piece of trash.
Her boyfriend can't grow a stache.
They haven't talked in days, no weeks.
Sick of being hit on by counselor creeps. 
This summer seems to be dragging on.
And why is it that now everyone wears neon?
Her stomach hurts from indigestible food.
I'm sorry if this all sounds a bit rude.
It's time to get over the temporal things in life
I wish that I had a red pocket knife.

A Cup

Tried to write a letter today
While sipping on a dolce latte
Couldn't decide whom to address
So I just sat there alone in my shirtdress
Wondering... Wandering... Pondering...
And then it happens again
Detached girl sitting just so
Imagining herself chasing to and fro
Net in hand, barefoot in the grass
Trying to jump high to catch them alas
They seem to be just out of reach
At least that whats said every time she speaks
Maybe some day she will grow taller
Maybe some day she will jump higher
But until that day, what will become
Of the girl in the dress in the grass with the net?

Huh.

Joy, Dallas, and I played in the staff volleyball tournament this weekend for fun... we didn't expect to last very long. We created brilliant dance moves and victory moves for ourselves. Yeah... ... ... so somehow unbeknownst (?) to us, we ended up in the championship game against our boss, Peet, and some pro volleyball chick from Pondy and we got devoured. 

However, we did win our first kickball game tonight... ... but I still don't like Monday night kickball, even when we win.
