"I've Seen Enough" Cold War Kids
How's it gonna feel when summer ends?
out of money
out of friends

I've seen enough of nothing news
The blackest stain on history or last laugh blues
Not gonna fight, not gonna cry
Not gonna shop around for one flag to fly

I've seen enough inventor's age
I've covered up my face
Browbeaten shame
I've got the itch
I feel the ( Read more... )

I wonder.  Does my secrecy make you uneasy?

0.
There are 0 people who I'm completely up front with everything I'm thinking about.  There are maybe 3 people that I've never told a severe lie.  I suppose there might be a person who I've made feel uneasy about what I think of them.

If someone just all of a sudden asks me if I'm cool with them, I'm ( Read more... )

"I awake to find
No peace of mind"

Usually, a night's sleep is all I need to (at least temporarily) relieve myself of sadness, anger, disappointment.
But, lately, that isn't enough.

"Even the sun goes down
Heroes, eventually die
Horoscopes often lie
And sometimes 'y'
Nothing is for sure
Nothing is for certain
Nothing lasts forever
And ( Read more... )

Written at some point after midnight
I'm sick of people praising vapid lyricism.  If you want teen angst, "I'm-in-so-much-pain", lyrics, I could write you that shit.  It's pretty fuckin easy.  And, I'm a terrible writer.  The people who support and hail these shallow words can't even comprehend real poetry.  These are the ones who, when reading ( Read more... )

Up until now, I've changed several ways internally.  My preference in color represents that. 
When I was small, I lacked an identity.  How many people have a grasp of who they are as a child, anyway?  Because of this, my favorite color was blue.  I don't know now if it actually was.  At the time, blue was favored by a lot of the kids around me ( Read more... )

I've recently decided to give up on my feelings.  Although, I don't know if I'll be successful.  As long as I don't have to see you for a few months, but life is unpredictable.  I'm not built to take this frustration.

So, for now, I'm labeling myself a quitter.

Also, I used to say quite often that I don't care about other people's ( Read more... )

What I have to say doesn't matter.
I need a therapist.  Other people feel better about their problems after unloading them on someone else.

I'm usually the listener.
Pride is a bitch.

You have the knack of making me feel enraged and utterly powerless simultaneously.  You have me trapped in an emotional cage.  I wish I didn't care about you. life. ( Read more... )

You know that dry feeling in your throat and caving feeling in your stomach when you're hungry?  Well, guess how I feel right now.

It's amazing how anti-morning I've gotten.  I woke up at 9:15 this morning and I feel like dying.  Go ahead and laugh; I think it's pretty funny, too.  To those of you who still have to wake up early on a regular ( Read more... )
