yesterdays feelings

yesterdays feelings

last night i stayed up late singing songs to you over the phone. i know you werent listening though, not because you dont care, but because my phone was not hooked up. i was sitting in my room practicing singing to you. finding the right words to go with a catchy melody, and instead giving them to the dead phone in my hand. one day you will hear these songs about you, and you will think they are as beautiful as i think you are. then we will ruin away and get married and have a perfect life, with a perfect little cottage, on a perfect little bay. we will row in our perfect little boat out to the perfect little island in the distance. we will have a picnic while we watch the sunset, and make love, and finally see the sunrise as well. a perfect night, for a perfect girl, with a perfect life. except for me, im so far from perfect its almost funny. but you would never laugh because you are so nice, nice and perfect.

lets just keep touching

lets just keep touching

those were the days. back in march of this year when i was reacquainted with an angel i met a couple years back. what a journey its been. getting together late at night and drinking, smoking, and get this, talking. you gave me guidance, and i took it. now its months later, and i havent spoken to that angel in what seems like years. even though its probably closer to only a few weeks. now im not as collected as i'd like to be. im like a locomotive, and your guidance was the tracks. but without you, my tracks are gone, and i've been derailed, and im headed straight for this gas station. im out of control. most people have bailed on me by now, but those closest to me wont ever bail. im bringing them down with me though. i dont feel well. i wish i could just safely come to a stop, and not keep rolling without knowing where i am going, and honestly, im scared.

fear without a basis is no fear at all

fear without a basis is no fear at all

im so bored. i went to school for not even 2 hours today, and thats it, i did nothing really for the rest of the day. talked to a lot of people, but didnt really get anything accomplished. days like this take forever, but i like them, because it makes other days, even kinda crappy ones, seem fun because at least something is happening. im also pretty tired. i was up till like 3 or 3:30 last night, or this morning. i wanted to go visit people. i think that would be fun to do, just call someone up at 3 in the morning and go do something. doesnt really matter what, cuz its so late, and your both tired, but it would still be fun. somehow. i think im going to have to actually do that to someone sometime. but who... oh well. i'll think of someone. thats about all.. i think.. i dont really care. thats all you get.

feel better jackie. chin up.

someone elses words

someone elses words

On a string, I was held.
The way I move, can you tell?
My actions are orchestrated from above.
So I swing and I sway.
Wave my hand, kick my leg,
And it is always right with the music.

"Until all that swaying starts to make you sick..."


bright eyes - false advertising

good song, i must have listened to it... 5 or 6 times already today. yeah, so also today, i was heading home from school, and i get on the subway, and the intercom comes on saying that there was an accident at the next station and it would be a while before my train woudl move. and for some reason only half the lights were on in the station. it was kinda creepy, like it should have been from a movie, and some guy was going to come out of a tunnel and get chased by some other guys, and i'd get hit by a stray bullet, and i would say somethign profound just before i died. then the camera would cut to black, no fading for me. there might be a story in the news the next day, but thats about it, and no one would remember me, just the fact that it took them 20 more minutes to get home then usual because of some accident.

mean something to someone

mean something to someone

today i went to ticketmaster to get tickets to tegan and sara, the used, and taking back sundays concerts. i get there and find out that tegan and sara, and taking back sunday are already sold out, and the used hasnt even gone on sale yet. piss me off. but i did get tegan and sara's new cd, and it is really really good, walking with a ghost is a good decision for a single to release. also the used's cd come out next week, heard a clip of one of the new songs, sounds even more hardcore then the last album, should be good. i also saw someone pass out today, it was wierd, she was just standing there, well, leaning on the rail, and the she slid along it, and nailed her head on a column, and fell to the ground, looked painful, but she was alright. showed me how fragile, and at the same time, how tough we are sometimes.

new day, new story

new day, new story

yeah, so im looking forward to tegan and sara coming to toronto, but i have to pick up their new cd first, so i don;t look like a fool at the concert. i just checked their site, and apparently the cd is already out, i thought i had to wait until tomorrow, but maybe its the used im confused with. im also really looking forward to that, should be a great album. yeah, i just got distracted for a while there, trying to match lyrics to songs for raechel (i have no idea how to spell her name) but it was fun, trying to go through all kinds of songs and match sketchy lyrics to a kind of familiar song. quite a challenge. but fun. kind of like scooby and the gang, taking small clues to solve a mystery. yeah, that actually sounds really not fun at all. heres a question, where did the postal service come from? all of a sudden all kinds of people i know are listening to them, quoting them and such, but only started in the past month or so. kind of odd. they are good though, so i guess its cool. anyways, thats all for today.
