Earlier today, when Joe Biden said “this is a big fucking deal”
he wasn’t talking about healthcare.
He was obviously talking about tonight’s episode of LOST.
Damn right.
I got an HDMI cable finally
Oh god.
Hello 1080p.
Good bye social life.
I now have to replay all my favorite games and watch all these movies in HIGH DEFFFF
Hi def makes my fucking life.
Two Tongues
What you give or give out is the only thing that really counts.
Will you stay here?
Stay around?
And we’ll both start working this out.
But it’s not just this,
It’s everything
You’re so hard to reach and impossible
To really read when you’re talking
With two tongues in your mouth.
And I wish you’d quit this mumbling
Underneath your breath
It’s killing me.
You’ve not said nothing yet.
Well I guess I’m starting to doubt…
Are we lost here?
Are you keeping count,
Or are you gonna just let me down?
Your heart’s not in it
It’s everywhere.
It’s plain to see you’re still wondering
What’s underneath,
You’re so curious
Well, it’s two strikes and you’re out.
I’m tired of this attitude
You just fall to pieces,
And I can’t believe you’re still talking
With two tongues in your mouth
After all we’ve been around.
Will you hear me out?
You’re the only
Thing
That really counts.
— Swell Season
The day music stops explaining my moods better than myself is the day I am able to write this well.
Effaced
Flightless bird
Won’t you stop these flames
These embers wrought down
To erase the frames
Forgotten, and destroyed
Our drowned souls will die down
Rising wind
Halt your marching beat
Lest this hearth grow much higher
And this ruthless wave of heat
Bring us forth to admire
This our drowned funeral pyre
The Canyon Prelude
On a cold cold night
Hear no sound
Just bright, bright lights
The desert sands
the rushing wind
Surging through the lands
The sun may rise
We’ll journey on
Throw your worries up into the skies
Why cling to what will end so soon
It’s foolish, let go of this boon
Why cling to what will end so soon
It’s foolish, let go of this boon
I see a mouth within this never-ending landscape
With teeth as bright as pearls
Shout out “Where’s the gold?”
“Where’s the gold?”
Finding rubies and sapphires
Beyond our desires
Emeralds, diamonds,
So much to spend
The jaws crumble down
We’d better go back to town..
And then you hear them say
Why cling to what will end so soon,
It’s foolish, let go of this boon
Why cling to what will end so soon
It’s foolish, let go of this boon
Shouting “Where’s the gold?”
“Where’s the gold?”
Give me the silver and gold
Give me the diamonds and pearls
Give me everything, everything, every…
Why cling to what will end so soon
It’s foolish, let go of this boon….
Samantha
She sent her farewell tonight.
I’ve no eyes to see her go.
Too many miles between us,
Growing with each moment.
Our memories are unique
She was my lover
She had my trust
And she is the only one left
We held each other close,
Intimacy was wrapped around us
Yet the moment it ended
Our friendship remained
It remains forever
Despite the passing exit signs
That we will both pass
On our restless journeys
If I see her again
I will hold her close
But in the morning she’ll be gone
Then again, so will I.
Mon Amour
She speaks
In silent whispers
I can feel her
Inside
Her mind
Will not function
It is broken
Beautifully broken
A memory
Lost in translation
Disappearing
Again
They’ll not feel
The drowning
It’s rising
I can feel her
Inside
I hear
All their voices
They’re all shouting
To stop
I feel
Both our bodies
Are we broken?
Simply just broken?
Now they’ll feel
The drowning
It is rising
I can feel it
Inside
Oh, now I feel
The drowning
She is rising
I can feel her
Inside
