... It never turns off when I want it to. 3AM with the past staring me in the face and the future receding into the distance.
Another sleepless night...
And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
All I can breathe is your life
Sooner or later, it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive
Sittin' here thinking 'bout back when
Everybody I knew, was my best friend
cocaine, running all round my brain
It was you take Sally, and I'll take Sue
and if you let me see your coke, I'll take Sally too
cocaine, running all round my brain
Uh-hu mama, ain't it strange
How a mind can turn, and a life can change
Cocaine, runnin' all round my brain
There was damage to the body
Damage to the soul
Damage to the quality of the Rock n' Roll
And the years spent stumbling around
half knowing something that something was wrong
And it don't help now, but you can look back and see
how some of us damaged are creativity
And there are good friends of mine that are dead and gone
uhhuh, mmmhmmm, cocaine
Now I ain't saying, it wasn't fun at the time
Staying up for days on end, crazed out of my mind
Waking up in strange places
feeling like the army had marched across my tongue
And look at me now, sharp as a tack
Except for a few billion brain cells
I wouldn't mind having back
Now you take Nancy, and I'll take Ron
No telling what kinds of drugs those two are on
Inner city ghetto children, going down slow
Ron and Nancy wanna tell them
you can Just Say No
Then they cancel the school lunch program,
buy a few more tanks
Uh huh, come here quick
The hypocrisy, bout to make me sick
Well ya finally get so tired, of walking around
looking and feeling like shit
You decide Today is the day is the day I quit
Till a little later in the evening
You start thinking about...Whatcha gonna do?
But I wouldn't have been a user, even one more day
If you could have shown me how I was helping
turn a profit for the CIA
Cocaine, runnin' all round my brain
KT Tunstall - A/K/A "The chick that sings that 'Black Horse' song".
Apparently she does her own backing tracks. That's cool.
Apparently she records and runs them LIVE while she's singing. That's FUCKING AWESOME.
Also, she has an incredible voice.
Just rambling... I'm done now. Go away.
OK So...
1) My great aunt died this week. Scratch yet another flying lesson.
2) My last hermit crab (Zoidberg, the big one) committed suicide.
I'm not sure why, but he jumped from the top of his branch and landed hard in his food dish. I made him as comfortable as I could, and he died this morning
3) There's a SuperPad Halloween party on the 21st; I will be attending as Arthur Dent.
4) I bought a goldfish, because the empty crab tank depressed me.
Said fish is currently sulking behind some plants in the tank. I'll have pictures when it comes out.
I'm accepting name suggestions :)
