this girl thinks like me
"It's not that I'm not happy. I am happy. I just want everything to mean something, and I am surprised and secretly disappointed and pissed off by people who don't want that or to whom nothing seems to mean anything."

apathy's last kiss
what's the matter?
what's the difference?
you'll feel better if you lie
with the stars in your eyes

honey, honey
where's my baby?
she knows better than to cry
with the stars in her eyes

there is
no safe place to go
i should know
the lame
and the droll have needs
to let their feelings show

what's the matter?
what's the difference?
what's the question?
you'll feel better

and the droll have needs
to let their feelings show

bury your heart in a hole
bury your heart in a
bury your heart in a

all at once
they're all liars in the back room
watch them all go down
they can tell you what you want to hear
but they will never stick around

this is for you
spend all your time waiting
for that second chance
for a break that would make it okay
there's always some reason
to feel not good enough
and it's hard at the end of the day
i need some distraction
beautiful release
memories seep from my veins
let me be empty and weightless
and maybe
i'll find some peace tonight

in the arms of the angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort there

so tired of the straight line
and everywhere you turn
there's vultures and thieves at your back
and the storm keeps on twisting
keep on building the lies
that you make up for all that you lack
it don't make no difference
escaping one last time
it's easier to believe in this sweet madness,
this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees

in the arms of the angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort there
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here

deja vu
"work and money; money and work - strange but true. fifty years of this stuff ahead of me - it's a wonder i don't just hurl myself off the bridge in the center of town right away. how did we let the world arrive at this state? i mean, is this it? and where, exactly, is the relief from this creepy cycle supposed to be? has nobody thought of this? am i mad?"

- douglas coupland

if you go through my past entries, you'll find a rant where i said the exact same thing... so i guess he's not mad. and neither am i.

Researchers say people spend too much time worrying about achieving professional and monetary goals that may never bring them true happiness. But by devoting more time to personal health and family life, people will find lasting happiness.

durh! no shit! have i not been saying this my whole life?? will someone please throw a pie at my face?! you shouldn't have to do research on something like that to understand or believe it.

so, if people use the letter x in the place of "chris," - for example, "x-mas" and "x-tina" - then should "thanx" be "than chris"?

massive overload of lyrics
sorry about it. my brain feels like it's just been thawed after 5 years of frozen imprisonment, so i'm going mad with thoughts... and every time i hear a song, i'm like, "hey, good lyrics. i feel like that." and sometimes i just like the weirdness and ambiguity of certain lyrics. see how they pertain to your life. go jump around, run, scream your heart out in the shower. go do something that reminds you that you're alive. the feeling of heat in your body can disappear beneath bad emotions sometimes.

shucks
i wish was a neutron bomb, for once i could go off
i wish i was a sacrifice but somehow still lived on
i wish i was a sentimental ornament you hung on
the christmas tree, i wish i was the star that went on top
i wish i was the evidence
i wish i was the grounds for fifty million hands up, raised and opened toward the sky

i wish i was a sailor with someone who waited for me
i wish i was as fortunate, as fortunate as me
i wish i was a messenger and all the news was good
i wish i was the full moon shining off a camaro's hood

i wish i was an alien at home behind the sun
i wish i was the souvenir you kept your house key on
i wish i was the pedal break that you depended on
i wish i was the verb to trust, and never let you down

i wish i was the radio song, the one that you turned up
i wish, i wish, i wish, i wish
i guess it never stops
