it caught up.everytime i get an ache i think it's going to put me in there again.I wonder if this was physical or if it could have been in my head,people make themselves sick sometimes.so i try not to think about it and you.it was still sharp through the morphine.living through the holes in my arms.drip fed a liquid diet not quite enough nutrition.and there's never anything good on tv.i drank contrast.i ate IV's.look at radioactive me. but, today the sun charged me up some,I can glow in the dark..wish you could see.

japan. so strange, i am unable to communicate with anyone here whatsoever.i feel like i'm on an entirely different planet, but somehow there are people that know the words to my songs.making a phonecall here is damn near impossible.sorry i missed you..i've never wanted home so bad.i miss my dog, i want my bed.it's me and you.i just want to drivedrivedrive.i want to be somewhere i know with someone i want to know.finally, i've got nowhere to go.don't move so slow. don't move so slow..

I may be a great gambler but i can't win.i roll six when i need seven.i'm good. but no where near great.
I need to get away from the snow..it's pretty but i need some heat.it's not coming soon.
the sun's gone down in my eyes.i've never been so alone,and i've never been so alive.
magazine covers are ruining my face.i draw all over them.i knowiknowiknow i know i know i know i can't keep it all...together.
i'd like to believe my horoscope but it's laughing.when i came to visit you, that's when i knew. that i could never have you.
living my life a thousand times faster than normal.i'm missing home or am i missing you.or am i missing me.
i can slow down. i just need to stay up all night.
i sleep in a coffin 7 days a week.i don't dream i don't don't dont.
back in vampire sleep,that makes it worse.i'm on a train but there's no one at the helm.
she's got her jaws now,locked down in a smile.but nothing is all right. all right?
If i can keep from losing it now.don't lose it now
i don't think highly of myself.but when you hear you're a god it gives you quite an image to live up to.
and i tell them i'm not.maybe i never will.
and the god of wine is crouched down in my room.
i want to believe in the faith that grows but i'm having a pretty hard time.
the achohol it permeates.and soon the cells give way, and cancel out the day.
but.somehow i still try to believe that
I'm the one for you cause I know all the dirty things you'd like to do
I'm the fear in your eyes I'm the fire in your flies
I'm the sound that's buzzing around your head
every creative writer worth our consideration...is a victim: of man given over to an obsession.
quoting graham greene.
and you are guiltless and free.
And I’m hanging on your words,Like I always used to do
The words they use so lightly,
I only feel for you.
I only know because I carry you around In the background
I’m way, im way way way way way way way i'm away i'm way away in the background.

I want to be a lion, everybody wants to pass as cats.
yea we all want to be big big stars,
but then we have second thoughts about that.
I don't always deal with things the best way, and in order to try and slow my life down I disappear every now and then.
so believe in me, because i don't believe in anything.
when everybody loves you, you can never be lonely.
sometimes, sometimes it's not that easy.
I have this pocket watch, and I spin the hands around and around just to pretend I have control of things. a month away. we can play normal for a few days.

if you're ever lucky enough to have dreams about someone, and wake up right next to them then you'll know how i've felt the past week or so.with you i don't have to be anybody.my name is just "yours"
i am stuck in a song.we are just sharks and butterflies.vicious and fragile.my neck isn't the same without you gnawing at it.six days.
"A long december and there’s reason to believe
Maybe this year will be better than the last
I can’t remember the last thing that you said as you were leaving
Now the days go by so fast
And it’s one more day up in the canyons
And it’s one more night in hollywood
If you think that I could be forgiven...i wish you would"

hello hellooo. i'm in maryland right now, today is the first day of tracking drums which also happens to be the first day i'll be able to be on the internet. first of about four total. anyways we did preproduction for the past 7 days and the squiz is convinced we are ready to begin bringing the rock. ooooooooooh
yea im a nerd. maryland is pretty nice i guess. we met a rapper named Dibiasi at danny's sub shop, he's from North Carolina. he's street. thinking about having him do some guest vocals on our record. his manager "Big Easy" wants us to tour with him. so yea that has probably been the funniest and most awesome thing to happen since we've been here. i wear the same clothes almost everyday and have been getting lazier and lazier, started with just wearing basketball shorts everyday...then the same shorts...then same shorts and shirt...then not showering..then not combing my hair.. so if i were famous, this is what i would do to not get noticed in public. but it's probably gotten so bad that i do get noticed in ways like "look at that poor homeless kid, we should feed him" okay i think i'm done. i've said to much.

It’s when the cigarettes smoked after, seem so much cheaper than the sex.
It’s these substandard motels on the on the corner of 14th and Freemont Street.
Appealing, only because they are just that un-appealing.
Any practiced catholic would cross themselves on entering.
the rooms have a hint of asbestos and maybe a just dash of formaldehyde,
and the habit of decomposing right before your very eyes.
(along with the people inside.)
there are no raindrops on roses or girls in white dresses.
It’s sleeping with roaches and taking best guesses
at the shade of the sheets before all the stains
and a few more of your least. Favorite. Things.
Tonight tenants range from: a lawyer and a virgin,
accessorizing with a rosary tucked inside her lingerie
(she’s getting a job at the firm come Monday)
the Mrs. will stay with the cheating attorney,
moonlighting aside, she really needs his money.
Oh. What a wonderful caricature of intimacy
and not to mention, the constable. and his proposition,
for that “virgin”.Yes, the one the lawyer met with on “strictly business”
as he said to the Mrs. only hours before.
After he had left, as she was fixing her face in a compact,
there was a terrible crash. Between her and the badge.
She spilled her bag and her purse held a “purse” of a different type.
And here is where he entertains that proposition:arrested on possession,
or.
(now if this were you)
think of what you wouldn’t want to happen
They ended up… well, making love isn’t exactly what I’m looking for.
But.
You.
Get.
The.
Picture.
Oh. what a wonderful caricature of intimacy.

I still have your copy of Harold and Maude.

Problem:the hospice is a relaxing weekend getaway. where you are a cut above every sick sad patient.
Where you’re on first name basis with all the top physicians.
solution: prescribed pills to offset the shakes..to offset the pills you should take…um.. take..take it a day at a time(fix a vice with a vice.)
That’s when you st st stutter something profound to the support on the line..
and with the way you’ve been talking every word gets you a step closer to hell.
A pessimist? No I just cant help it. to say what everyone else is thinking..(let me state the obvious again).

i swear its bad luck or no luck at all. someone is out to get me and here is proof: first i get a $15 parking ticket at school for parking in a staff spot. second i get the $100 speeding ticket. then on thursday my car got towed from school for parking in front of einstein bagels for my class. $150. total cost of bullshit in the last two weeks? $265. sucks bad.
the underoath coheed show was amazing. both of them were so good it gave me chills and butterflies at times. we started to record a new song this weekend so hopefully that will be done pretty quick. i've been getting sadhappy when i listen to some of my favorite records from the past two years. certain songs remind me of specific times..and i can remember things in such detail.. last year this time was mae and the new blink. and trying to stay happy when its so cold and depressing outside.
