we try and we try
to make use of what's inside
but we look towards the past
and lose sight of what we have
with so much to look down upon
so much we can frown upon
it's easy to feel we've failed
but there's still a sun in the sky
and there's still you and i
and there will always be much more
that's worth smiling for
12/13/09 (nervous/sorry/sad/mad)
chew my nails down to the bone
because i know that i'm still alone
and i am heading back to my home
i'm heading back to the cold
these are the days it never rains, but it pours
far from you, far from where it's warm
i want you back each day more and more
but i know that's not what i've got in store
i don't want to leave
i want you here with me
but i don't think
that will ever be
12.01.09 (going home)
if i bury my heart
in the sand
will it sprout up
whole again
will it learn
again to love
if i water
it enough
if i buy fertilizer
from the nearest
drug store
will it be stronger?
will i feel more?
you've torn it apart
with your
contagious broken heart
but i don't
hold it against you
i know your intentions
really were true
and as january
slowly nears
it all becomes
kind of clear
while this has been
a wild ride
i have tried
and tried and tried
and so time
kind of slows
as my heart
grows and grows
and i really
miss the snow
i want to be cold
in the sand
will it sprout up
whole again
will it learn
again to love
if i water
it enough
if i buy fertilizer
from the nearest
drug store
will it be stronger?
will i feel more?

11/14/09 (taking it for granted)
the world is a beautiful, ugly place
we're an ungrateful, greedy, selfish race
we take our lives for granted
we're a fucking disgrace!
we've got all the time (in the world)
to ruin our lives
but we ruin each others instead
we fuck and destroy our heads
billions of dying hearts
and even more being torn apart
drunk driving fucks
running out of luck
today is the day we all die
10/15/09 (silly sad song about what was to come)
i am a tailor
of the saddest kind
because the things that i create
will never be mine
a life of leisure
a love so true
a family, a career
and to sail the ocean blue
my hopes and dreams
i sew and weave
my plots and schemes
i stitch and conceive
but to no avail
i am doomed, i am cursed, i am fated
to always fail
so i keep on dredging
on through the night
and with each passing day
i construct another plight
another aspiration!
cursed with misfortune!
but you my dear, will be
my biggest disappointment
because you fooled me to think i could be loved
when i couldn't
i could have called this from the start,
but i didn't
