Hit the Switch
Bright Eyes
i'm staring out into that vacuum again from the back porch of my mind the only thing that's alive i'm all there is and i start attacking my vodka stab the ice with a straw my eyes have turned red as stoplights you seem ready to walk you know i'll call you eventually when i wanna talk till then you're invisible cause there's a switch that gets hit & it all stops making sense. & in the middle of drinks, maybe the 5th or the 6th, i'm completely alone at a table of friends. i feel nothing for them. i feel nothing. nothing. well, i need a break from the city again I think I'll ship myself back west. I got a friend there, she says "hey, any time." unless that offers expired, i have been less than frequent. she's under no obligation to indulge every whim & i'm so ungrateful, i take, she gives &forgives. & i keep forgetting it. & each morning she wakes with a dream to describe, something lovely that bloomed from her beautiful mind. I said "I'll trade you one for two nightmares of mine. i have some where i die. I have some where we all die." I'm thinking of quitting drinking again, i know i said that a couple of times. &i'm always changing my mind, well, i guess i am. but there's this burn in my stomach & there's this pain in my side. & when i kneel at the toilet, &the mornings clean light pours in through the window sometimes i pray i don't die. I'm a goddamn hypocrite. but the night rolls around &it all starts making sense. there is no right way or wrong way, you just have to live. so i do what i do & at least I exist. what could mean more than this? what could mean more? mean more? ooh.alinda the lost girl in long s and you can tell rolling stone beruhigend best albums Best band in the world better than the beatles bright Bright Eyes bright eyes and related clover haus collin conor oberst disaffected dj renae durchzuhalten-das goenn ich mi electronica emo favorites folk gets me everytime gloomy trippy brutal dark deep hach I felt like carving my heart o I need a break from the city a I wanna die Incredible indie indie folk leaking eyes and hearts leaving Lo-Fi lonely nights screaming silenc Love love it like le kittins on a s loved tracks lovelovelove lybe lyrics makes me sad plinktschklalaplink poetry random radio sad Saddle Creek seen live singer-songwriter sixpack am nachmittag hach so true it hurts sommer :S Soundtrack Of My Life think about it very cool
