I can't sleep.


As silly as this may sound, I like to relate things to football. Makes it easier to understand things or talk myself through difficult situations. Ya'll should try it. I don't know if it would work with just anything, but take a sport you like and know a lot about and try relating situations in your life to situations in that particular sport.

Anyway, I know the world is a fucked up place. I'm very aware. But sometimes shit still shocks me. There are things I don't want to know. I don't need to be explicitly informed of things. I know they happen. Let me live behind my veil. It's so much nicer back here.


I can't sleep.

I quickly abandon posting lyrics to my favorite Smashing Pumpkins songs in favor of posting lyrics to some of my favorite songs from The Doors. Too many to choose from so I'll start with a song which I honestly disliked greatly till about a few months ago. I love it now. Not a staple in my playlist just yet, but it's one of those songs I find myself singing in my head randomly.

This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end

Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
I'll never look into your eyes...again

Can you picture what will be
So limitless and free
Desperately in need...of some...stranger's hand
In a...desperate land

Lost in a roman...wilderness of pain
And all the children are insane
All the children are insane
Waiting for the summer rain, yeah

There's danger on the edge of town
Ride the king's highway, baby
Weird scenes inside the gold mine
Ride the highway west, baby

Ride the snake, ride the snake
To the lake, the ancient lake, baby
The snake is long, seven miles
Ride the snake...he's old, and his skin is cold

The west is the best
The west is the best
Get here, and we'll do the rest

The blue bus is callin' us
The blue bus is callin' us
Driver, where you taken' us

The killer awoke before dawn, he put his boots on
He took a face from the ancient gallery
And he walked on down the hall
He went into the room where his sister lived, and...then he
Paid a visit to his brother, and then he
He walked on down the hall, and
And he came to a door...and he looked inside
Father, yes son, I want to kill you
Mother...i want to...fuck you

C'mon baby, take a chance with us
C'mon baby, take a chance with us
C'mon baby, take a chance with us
And meet me at the back of the blue bus
Doin' a blue rock
On a blue bus
Doin' a blue rock
C'mon, yeah

Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill

This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end

It hurts to set you free
But you'll never follow me
The end of laughter and soft lies
The end of nights we tried to die

This is the end

School really catches up to you when you don't do shit for a week or two.

I'm not complaining. I'm just making an observation!
But like a wise man once said, "The sooner you fall behind, the more time you'll have to catch up. "

"I'm not the slowest quarterback. I'm just the slowest black one."

How funny.

Currently my favorite song of theirs.

Wrap me in always, and drag me in with maybes
Your innocence is treasure, your innocence is death
Your innocence is all I have
Breathing underwater, and living under glass

And if you spin your love around
The secrets of your dreams
You may find your love is gone
And is not quite what it seemed
To appear to disappear
Beneath all your darkest fears

I believe in never, I believe in all the way
But belief is not to notice, belief is just some faith
And faith can't help you to escape

And with this ring I wed thee true
And with this ring I wed thee now
And with this ring I play so dead
But no one's asking for the truth, so let me tell you

If you spin your love around
The secrets of your dreams
You may find your love is gone
And is not quite what it seemed
To appear to disappear
Beneath all your darkest fears

To the revelations of fresh faced youth
No one will come to save you
So speak your peace in the murmurs drawn
But youth is wasted on the young

Your strength is my weakness, your weakness my hate
My love for you just can't explain
Why we're forever frozen, forever beautiful,
Forever lost inside ourselves

The night has come to hold us young

They're coming back, so I'm going to post lyrics to some of my favorite songs. We'll start with the first song I ever heard of theirs.

Freak out
And give in
Doesn't matter what you believe in
Stay cool
And be somebody's fool this year'cause they know
Who is righteous, What is bold
So I'm told

Who wants honey
As long as there's some money
Who wants that honey?

Hipsters unite
Come align for the big fight to rock for you
But beware
All those angels with there wings glued on'cause deep down
We are frightened and we're scared
If you don't stare

Who wants honey
As long as there's some money
Who wants that honey?

Let me out
Let me out
Let me out
Let me out

Tell me all of your secrets
Cannot help but believe this is true
Tell me all of your secrets
I know, I know, I know,
Should have listened when I was told

Who wants honey
As long as there is some money
Who wants that honey?

Let me out
Let me out
Let me out
Let me out
