purpose
I don't think many understand the purpose of my journal or how it works...it's nothing I write, it's songs expressing my current emotions. But at this point my emotions are so confuzzled that maybe my writing is the only thing that can express my thoughts and feelings. Not even Dashboard Confessional can help me this time. The lack of sleep has left me with nothing to do but take my problem and stretch it out like a sick piece of rubber or laytex. I hate it when you want to help someone but all they do is cut you off from contact and push you as far away as possible...despite how much you love them and want to help them. Being in this state has altered my normal MO. I can't remember how to function properly as I said to a friend when she asked ME for advice "to tell you the truth...I don't know...my advice isn't the best right now. My emotions and thoughts have drained me to the point where I couldn't even remember how to button my pants this morning..."

All I want to do is help...BUT YOU SHUT ME OUT!!

I'm going to end this angsty journal entry with two blurbs written the night of and the weekend after:

"It hurts so bad
Will it never end?
This sick cycle carousel
Takes me around again"
- July 7...about 10:00pm

"Fighting my way
Back to sanity
Tomorrow brings promise
If it's a good day
I'll get out of bed"
- July 13th...about 3:30pm

The Beautiful Letdown
It was a beautiful letdown
when I crashed and burned
when I found myself alone, unknown and hurt
it was a beautiful letdown
the day I knew
that all the riches this world had to offer me
would never do
In a world full of bitter pain and bitter doubt
I was trying so hard to fit in, fit in,
until I found out
I don't belong here
I don't belong here
I will carry a cross and a song
where I don't belong
It was a beautiful letdown
when you found me here
yeah for once in a rare blue moon
I see everything clear
I'll be a beautiful letdown
thats what I'll forever be
and though it may cost my soul
I'll sing for free
we're still chasing our tails in the rising sun
in our dark water planet still spins in a race
where no one wins and no one's one
see I don't belong here
I don't belong here
I will carry a cross and a song
where I don't belong
I don't belong here
I don't belong here
I'm gonna set sight and set sail for the kingdom come
kingdom come
Your kingdom come
won't you let me down yeah
let my foolish pride
forever let me down
easy living, you're not much like your name
easy dying, hey you look just about the same
would you please take me off your list
easy living, please come on and let me down
we are a beautiful letdown,
painfully uncool,
the church of the drop outs, the losers, the sinners,
the failures, and the fools
oh what a beautiful letdown
are we salt in the wound
and let us sing one true tune
I don't belong here
I don't belong here
I don't belong here
Feels like I don't belong here
Would you let me down
Come on and let me down
You always let me down
So glad that I'm let down
Come on and let me down
Cuz I don't belong to you
Please
Won't you let me down?

i wrote this whole fucking thing out.



am i correct to defend the fist that holds this pen?
It's the ink that lies, the pen, the page the paper, I live, I learn, you will always take what i have earned, and so aid my end while I believe I am winning. Our friends speak out in our defense, I pay ten deaf ears for 2 months rent. we burn the gallows they errect, and cut the nooses they tie for our necks.

You constantly make it impossible to make converstation, keep us comatose but audible. and I like the farther I get out. We'll pass it off but it's all on us. Only common conversation, it took everything I got. and i like it the farther I get out.

Once said always said, I will hold the past over your head. I'll speak my mind mind whenever I feel slighted. I am hellbent on extracting all of my revenge, so take heart, sweetheart, or I will take it all from you. We slip concealed back to the keep. concede to do the work for free. We prey as wolves among the sheep and slit the necks of soldiers while they sleep.

You constantly make it impossible to make converstation, keep us comatose but audible. and I like the farther I get out. We'll pass it off but it's all on us. Only common conversation, it took everything I got. and i like it the farther I get out.

Beautiful
Finally here, won't stay too late.
I want to feel you, I need to hear you.
You are the light that's leading me to the place where I find peace,
again.
You are the strength, that keeps me walking.
You are the hope, that keeps me trusting.
You are the light, to my soul.
You are my purpose, you're everything.
And how can I stand here with you, and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me 'How could it be any better than this?'
yeah...
You calm the storms, and you give me rest.
You hold me in your hands, you won't let me fall
You steal my heart, and you take my breath away.
Would you take me in? Take me deeper now.
And how can I stand here with you, and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me 'How could it be any better than this?'
And how can I stand here with you, and not be moved by you?

Well I had a dream last night and in my dream I took a knife to you.
I slit your throat from ear to ear
The wound was gasping for the air.....your scream so clear

But every dream could never come true.
Only in my sick mind can I do these things to you.

With every passing moment, it just keeps getting worse
The walls are getting smaller and I am six feet beneath the earth.
And I will be, oh I will be, lost.

I had a dream last night and in my dream I robbed a country club.
A 5 year old tried to stop me, but I shot him through the head, and now he's dead.

Your heart.

Oh it's better too...... Rush upon this blade
Then give into the fear in your heart.

These dreams never cease



i need sleep. i sleep 2 hours a night, usualy from 2 a.m. to 6 a.m. not cool at all.
im addicted to dashtabs.com
i dont know what the fuck i am typing. im going to walk 2 miles to 7-11 for a much needed slurpee.

Shaking like a dog shittin' razorblades,
waking up next to nothing after dreaming of you and me
I'm waking up all alone, waking up so relieved
while you're taking your time with apologies,
I'm making my plans for revenge
Red eyes on orange horizons
If Columbus was wrong I'd drive straight off the edge
I'd drive straight off the edge

Taking your own life with boredom,
I'm taking my own life with wine -
it helps you to rule out the sorrow,
it helps me to empty my mind
Making the most of a bad time
I'm smoking the brains from my head
Leaving the coal calling the kettle black and orange and red
This kettle is seeing red

I've got a big fat fuckin' bone to pick with you my darling
In case you haven't heard I'm sick and tired of trying
I wish you would take my radio to bathe with you,
plugged in and ready to fall

(your name here), you destroy me, so I can see why I feel so lonely
when you and me could be forever perfectly perfect together.
I know.
Broken down in my dead bedroom, stuttering to pictures of you.
I'm know that you can always see me.
I saw you staring through my TV last night.
So I'll leave my door open all night, if you decide you want to stop on by.
Because you got to know who's been singing that song on the radio.
The one that goes... (the one that goes)
My friends all call me crazy cause I stay up late anticipating,
and planning for the day I sweep you off your feet, I'd never leave you alone.
(your name here), you got my hand shaking,
I'm begging you oh baby please stop breaking my heart
because I got the feeling that you and I will never really get it on.
So I'll leave my door open all night if you decide you want to stop on by.

Keep the noise low, she doesn't wanna blow it. She stripped from head to toe and then left him with his shoulder out. Go get your heartbeat. It beats me straight into the ground. You don't recover from a night like this. Our victim, still lying in bed, completely motionless. A hand moves in the dark to her zipper. And a boy best in tourniquet sheets barely whispers, "This is so messed up." Upon arrival the guests had all stared. Dripping wet and clearly depressed, he'd headed straight for the stairs. No longer cool, but a boy in a stitch, unprepared for a life filled with lies and failing relationships. (Up the stairs, the station where the act becomes the art of growing up.) He keeps his hands low, he doesn't wanna blow it. He's wet from head to toe and his eyes give her the up and the down. His stomach turns and he thinks of throwing up. Get the body on the bed like it's flowered and he starts going down. The people, the focus. The reasons that I had to believe you weren't too hard to settle. Die young and
save yourself. They take all the taste out. It used to be the reason that we're even, now it's choking me up. Die young and save yourself. She hits the lights. This doesn't seem quite fair. Despite everything he learned from his friends, he doesn't feel so prepared. She's breathing quiet and smooth, he's gasping for air. "This is the first and last time", he said. She fakes a smile and presses her hips into his. He keeps his hands pinned down at his sides. He's holding back from telling her exactly what it really feels like. He is the lamb, she is the slaughter. She's moving way too fast and all he wanted was to hold her. Nothing that he touches is really having an effect. He whispers that he loves her, but she's probably only looking for... (Up the stairs, the station where the act becomes the art of growing old.) So much more than he could ever give. A life full of lies and failing relationships. He keeps his hands pinned down at his sides. He waits for it to end and for the aching in his guts to subside.

im soo very tired. I'm only hoping as time goes, you can forget.
i still think no one cares. try and make me think some one cares and maybe i'll think some one does. ray and i stayed up all of friday night and saturday morning. and i still havent slept. this is probably going to end up as one big rant. im probably never going to meet a girl who like me for me, just the way i am. all girls think im either, too stupid, too dumb, too short, too into music, too crazy, too annoying, way too ugly. basicly fucking thing about me. they may like a few things about me but the other ones will fuck that fuck up.

fuck love.

Taking Over Me
You don't remember me but I remember you
I lie awake and try so hard not to think of you
But who can decide what they dream and dream unto?
I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you
To live, to breathe, you're taking over me
Have you forgotten all i know and all we had?
You saw me mourning my love for you
And touched my hand
I knew you loved me then
I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you
To live, to breathe, you're taking over me
I look in the mirror and see your face
If i look deep enough
So many things live inside that, just like you, are taking over
I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you
To live, to breathe, you're taking over me
I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you
To live, to breathe, you're taking over me
You're taking over me...

Shatterday
Days are numbered 6-6-6
And I'll begin the countdown
By calling off the circus
somewhere in these
Cryptic scriptures
I'll find myself drifting in a sky
Full of...

Scars they cut into you
Blisters rose color you
Mayday we're going down
These masculine memories are morose
Your kerosene company is comatose

Our days are numbered 3-2-1
And when you bit the bullet
I held the smoking gun
Somewhere in these
Violent volumes
I'll find myself drifting in a sky
Full of...

Scars they cut into you
Blisters rose color you
Mayday we're going down
These masculine memories are morose
Your kerosene company is comatose

And I would sick up half of my cold eye
To set you on your head
If I were you then I would memorize
This loose lipped lullaby
Instead of waiting
Carving out your own

Scars they cut into you
Blisters rose color you
Mayday we're going down
Follow we went around
Scars they cut into you
Blisters rose color you
Mayday we're going down
These masculine memories are morose
Your kerosene company is comatose

Drowning
And we're drowning you out
in boasts of defection
if everything was up to me I would be gone by the first sign
the first sign of hope I'd be packed up and out of my way.

And time has been spread so thin
and it's just hours till the day begins.
And the things that are keeping you here are not keeping me here (at all)
and the things that are keeping you here will keep me away.

And you'll be sorry
isn't that what they'll say.
Don't follow your heart cause it just seems to get in your way.

And don't ever leave here
and mope at your leisure
and straighten out your crease, dear
and truth is in a tall beer.

Are you drowning your fears
in a glass of deception?
When everything is easy then everything will be ok .
When everything is easy then you won't be sad that you stayed.

And time has been spread so thin
and its just hours till the day begins.
And the things that are keeping you here are not keeping me here (at all)
and the things that are keeping you here will keep me away.

And you'll be sorry
isn't that what they'll say.
Don't follow your heart cause it just seems to get in your way.

Rest in Pieces
Look at me, my depth perception must be off again,
Coz' this hurts deeper than I thought it did,
It has not healed with time...
It just shot down my spine.
You look so beautiful tonight,
Remind me how you laid us down,
And gently smiled,
Before you destroyed my life...
Would you find it in your heart,
To make this go away,
And let me rest in pieces?
Let me rest in pieces
Would you find it in your heart,
To make this go away,
And let me rest in pieces?
Let me rest in pieces
Look at me, my depth perception must be off again,
You got much closer than I thought you did,
I'm in your reach,
You held me in your hands...
But could you find it in your heart,
To make this go away,
And let me rest in pieces?
Let me rest in pieces
Would you find it in your heart,
To make this go away,
And let me rest in pieces?
Let me rest in pieces
Could you find, could you find in your heart?
Could you find, could you let me rest in pieces
Could you find, could you find in your heart?

Now its time to wrap our fears in the night
And on the first day we'll dress this city in flames
After all the things you say
You hate me for being this way

Still you won't let go of old ideals
There is no headline to read at night
When the record slips and you're not holding the needle

We all sing the songs of separation
And we watch our lives bleed out through our hands
Thats how it was on the first day
We saw Paris in Flames

I think it's going to rain, rain down

Here in this collapsed lung of a borough
There is no sunlight
The sunlight is manufactured in a windowless room
Distant and incoherent
Businessmen hang themselves

The lower cast side is a jukebox playing the deadman's crescendo
The needle is a vector
An intersection that well all must cross
A dimly lit hallway where shadows of moths decorate the walls
Discard this message
Burn this city down

Discard this message
Throw this bottle back in the ocean
Rip this page from the history books
Smash all the street signs
Erase all the maps
Forget my name
Forget my face
Because it's going to rain
And it never ends



im tired. sometimes i think no one cares about me and i think its true. ex-g/f, never cared, still doesnt care. friends, care sometimes. parents sometimes. anyone else, fucking hell no! i dont want to feel this way forever.

Can't Stop
Can't stop addicted to the shin dig
Chop top he says I'm gonna win big
Choose not a life of imitation
Distant cousin to the reservation
Defunkt the pistol that you pay for
This punk the feeling that you stay for
In time I want to be your best friend
Eastside love is living on the westend
Knock out but boy you better come to
Don't die you know the truth is some do
Go write your message on the pavement
Burnin' so bright I wonder what the wave meant
White heat is screaming in the jungle
Complete the motion if you stumble
Go ask the dust for any answers
Come back strong with 50 belly dancers
The world I love
The tears I drop
To be part of
The wave can't stop
Ever wonder if it's all for you
The world I love
The trains I hop
To be part of
The wave can't stop
Come and tell me when it's time to
Sweetheart is bleeding in the snowcone
So smart she's leading me to ozone
Music the great communicator
Use two sticks to make it in the nature
I'll get you into penetration
The gender of a generation
The birth of every other nation
Worth your weight the gold of meditation
This chapter's going to be a close one
Smoke rings I know you're going to blow one
All on a spaceship persevering
Use my hands for everything but steering
Can't stop the spirits when they need you
Mop tops are happy when they feed you
J. Butterfly is in the treetop
Birds that blow the meaning into bebop
The world I love
The tears I drop
To be part of
The wave can't stop
Ever wonder if it's all for you
The world I love
The trains I hop
To be part of
The wave can't stop
Come and tell me when it's time to
Wait a minute I'm passing out
Win or lose just like you
Far more shocking
Than anything i ever knew
How about you
10 more reasons
Why i need somebody new just like you
Far more shocking than anything I ever knew
Right on cue
Can't stop addicted to the shin dig
Chop top he says I'm gonna win big
Choose not a life of imitation
Distant cousin to the reservation
Defunkt the pistol that you pay for
This punk the feeling that you stay for
In time I want to be your best friend
Eastside love is living on the westend
Knock out but boy you better come to
Don't die you know the truth is some do
Go write your message on the pavement
Burnin' so bright I wonder what the wave meant
Kick start the golden generator
Sweet talk but don't intimidate her
Can't stop the gods from engineering
Feel no need for any interfering
Your image in the dictionary
This life is more than ordinary
Can I get 2 maybe even 3 of these
Come from space
To teach you of the pliedes
Can't stop the spirits when they need you
This life is more than just a read thru

Breathing
I'm finding my way back to sanity again
Though I don't really know what
I'm gonna do when I get there
Take a breath and hold on tight
Spin around one more time
And gracefully fall back to the arms of grace

'Cause I am hanging on every word you say
And even if you don't want to speak tonight
That's alright, alright with me
'Cause I want nothing more than to
Sit outside Heaven's door and listen to you breathing
Is where I want to be, yeah...
Where I wanna be...

I am looking past the shadows
Of my mind into the truth and
I'm trying to identify
The voices in my head
God, which one is you
Let me feel one more time
What it feels like to feel alive
And break these calluses off of me
One more time

'Cause I am hanging on every word you say
And even if you don't want to speak tonight
That's alright, alright with me
'Cause I want nothing more than to sit
Outside your door and listen to you breathing
Is where I want to be, yeah...

I don't want a thing from you
Bet you're tired of me, waiting
For the scraps to fall
Off of your table to the ground
La Da Da La Da Da Da Da Da
'Cause I just want to be here now

'Cause I am hanging on every word you're sayin'
Even if you don't wanna speak tonight, that's alright, alright with me
'Cause I want nothing more
Than to sit outside your door
And listen to you breathing
It's where I wanna be, yeah...

Where I wanna be...
Where I wanna be...

:: Music: alkaline trio - blue in the face

it's about time that i came clean with you
i'm no longer fine and far from running smooth
i thought that i found myself onto something new
one more line i repeat over and over again
'til i'm blue in the face with a choking regret
as i talk in circles 'round you on my bed
can't say i blamed you one bit when you kept it all inside
when you left that night
it's about time that you get sick of me
no longer fun and so far from interesting
i thought that i found me a cure for feeling old
just one more line to keep me sleeping loudly and cold
in disgrace with a shameful regret
as i talk in tongues to myself in my bed
can't say i blamed you one bit when you kept it all inside
when you left that night
and all that followed fell like mercury to hell
somehow we lost our heads for the last time
now i can't dream since i quit sleeping
and i haven't slept since i met you
and you can't breathe without coughing at daytime
neither can i so what do you say?
your coffin or mine?


im cold, alkaline trio is awesome.

my band is soon to change a lot, look for new music, and possibly a new name and we might be moving to a trio.

Ender Will Save Us All (Nathan's Choice)
It's just like you to contest
Wearing like a label on your breast
Don't you see what this takes of me?
A certain callousness complies with your charm & in your pride
A hopeful look draped in despise.
I want to give you whatever you need.
What is it you need?
Is it what I need?
I want to give you whatever you need.
What is it you need?
Is it within me?
It's hard to explain how I am getting by on so little from you.
It's hard to believe that I would let myself get so wrapped into you.
There's got to be something that would be worthwhile for me to give to you.
We need a connection but you seem to push me far away from you.
From you, from you.
The harder I push the further I fall.
Well you don't mind me being headstrong.
But you don't want to sing along.
Maybe it's trite but I can always, always, always be wrong
Trying not to be . . .
Trying not to be wrong

Thunder Road (song of the month)
The screen door slams
Mary's dress sways
Like a vision she dances across the porch
As the radio plays
Roy Orbison singing for the lonely
Hey that's me and I want you only
Don't turn me home again
I just can't face myself alone again
Don't run back inside
darling you know just what I'm here for
So you're scared and you're thinking
That maybe we ain't that young anymore
Show a little faith, there's magic in the night
You ain't a beauty, but hey you're alright
Oh and that's alright with me
You can hide `neath your covers
And study your pain
Make crosses from your lovers
Throw roses in the rain
Waste your summer praying in vain
For a savior to rise from these streets
Well now I'm no hero
That's understood
All the redemption I can offer, girl
Is beneath this dirty hood
With a chance to make it good somehow
Hey what else can we do now?
Except roll down the window
And let the wind blow
Back your hair
Well the night's busting open
These two lanes will take us anywhere
We got one last chance to make it real
To trade in these wings on some wheels
Climb in back
Heaven's waiting on down the tracks
Oh-oh come take my hand
Riding out tonight to case the promised land
Oh-oh Thunder Road, oh Thunder Road oh Thunder Road
Lying out there like a killer in the sun
Hey I know it's late we can make it if we run
Oh Thunder Road, sit tight take hold
Thunder Road
Well I got this guitar
And I learned how to make it talk
And my car's out back
If you're ready to take that long walk
From your front porch to my front seat
The door's open but the ride it ain't free
And I know you're lonely
For words that I ain't spoken
But tonight we'll be free
All the promises'll be broken
There were ghosts in the eyes
Of all the boys you sent away
They haunt this dusty beach road
In the skeleton frames of burned out Chevrolets
They scream your name at night in the street
Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet
And in the lonely cool before dawn
You hear their engines roaring on
But when you get to the porch they're gone
On the wind, so Mary climb in
It's a town full of losers
And I'm pulling out of here to win.
