Sleeping pictures of waking dreams...

1979 ~ Smashing Pumpkins

Shakedown 1979,
Cool kids never have the time
On a live wire right up off the street
You and I should meet

Junebug skipping like a stone
With the headlights pointed at the dawn
We were sure we'd never see an end to it all

And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues
And we don't know
Just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below

Double cross the vacant and the bored
They're not sure just what we have in store
Morphine city slippin' dues down to see

That we don't even care
As restless as we are
We feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts
And poured cement,
Lamented and assured

To the lights and towns below
Faster than the speed of sound
Faster than we thought we'd go, beneath the sound of hope

Justine never knew the rules,
Hung down with the freaks and the ghouls
No apologies ever need be made,
I know you better than you fake it

To see that we don't even care to shake these zipper blues
And we don't know just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below

The street heats the urgency of sound
As you can see there's no one around

Oh man, I feel like shit! My head is pounding but I can't take anything for it because of the meds I'm on (which I apparently forgot to take before I went out) for my stupid ear infection which is STILL ringing in my ear. On top of that, as well as headaches, these meds come with a shot of nausea as a side effect. So in about half an hour I'm gonna feel really bad. I reek of what I think is cigarette smoke and beer. My hair is a mess from the emo-ness. My feet hurt, my knees ache, my shoulders are sore. I'm gonna do a shitty ass job on my assignment due tomorrow (well today techincally). But you know what?

It was all worth going to karaoke for. Everyone seemed to have a pretty good vibe around them tonight.

Geoff, you are my new hero! Not only did you provide me a ride to and from the funness, you also have great taste in music and are totally fun to hang around.

I managed to somewhat belt out Heartshaped Box tonight, though I couldn't really hear myself so I dunno how I did. I actually should thank Jordan and Wayne for screaming over on the side, cuz it helped me stay on track and somewhat on key, unless of course it was to cover up my terrible awful singing. Though, like I said, I couldn't tell how I was doing. I was happy, in either case. It was fun.

Devin, you are a dancing god! I love it.

The emo game was awesome!
My soul is full of darkness
The rotting in my body is the rotting of the world
I cut my veins and bleed black
My heart is shattered like
Shards of blackened glass
Stomped on with stiletto heels
By those bitches that just don't understand me


No, that was not a South Park reference.

On top of that, I got to hang out with Jordan at lunch time today. I can't believe that it was over a week since we had seen each other! I missed hanging out with you! Wendy's food... yummy *thumbs up* So much salt on the fries, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Also, on a less happy note, I'm quite certain that I'm going to fail my Canadian Lit class. Hopefully the in class essays count for more than I think they do. I hate that class!

Awww thanks Amber :heart:

And Geoff, I'm glad that I could make you happy to be my hero, which you are yet again.
