All of our friends were gathered there with their pets just talking shit about how we're all so upset about the dissapearing ground. As we watch it melt... It's all of the good that won't come out of us and how eventually our hands will just turn to dust, if we keep shaking them. Standing here on this frozen lake. I do this thing where I think I'm real sick, but I won't go to the doctor to find out about it. Cause they make you stand real still in a real small place as they chartup your insides and put them on display. They'd see all of it, all of me, all of it. All of the good that won't come out of me and all the stupid lies I hide behind. It's such a big mistake, lying here in your warm embrace. Oh, you're almost home. I've been waiting for you to come in. Dancing around in your old suits going crazy in your room again. I think I'll go out and embarrass myself by getting drunk and falling down in the street. You say I choose sadness, that it never once has chosen me. Maybe you're right.... Let's talk about all of our friends who lost the war and all of the novels that had yet to be written about them. It's all of the good that won't come out of them, and all the stupid lies they hide behind. It's such a big mistake, standing here on this frozen lake. It's all the good that won't come outof me and how eventuallymy mouth will just turn to dust, if I don't tell you quick. Standing here on this frozen lake. A Better Son/Daughter -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sometimes in the morning I am petrified and can't move awake but cannot open my eyes and the weight is crushing down on my lungs I know I can't breath and hope someone will help me this time your mother's still calling you insane and high swearing it's different this time and you tell her to give in to the demons that possess her and that godnever blessed her insides then you hang up the phone and feel badly for upsetting things and crawl back into bed to dream of a time when your heart was open wide and you loved things just because like the sick and the dying and sometimes when you're on you're really fucking on and your friends they sing along and they love you but the lows are so extreme that the good seems fucking cheap and it teases you for weeks in its absense but you'll fight and you'll make it through you'll fake it if you have to and you'll show up for work with a smile and you'll be be better you'll be smarter more grown up and a better daughter or son and a real good friend and you'll be awake and you'll be alert you'll be positive though it hurts and you'll laugh and embrace all your friends and you'll be a real good listener you'll be honest you'll be brave you'll be handsome you'll be beautiful you'll be happy your ship may be coming in you're weak but not giving in to the cries and the wails of the valley below your ship may be coming in you're weak but not giving in and you'll fight it you'll go out fighting all of them... 030125 ... blue star I love this band. 030126 ... silentbob as do i 030126 ... sprhrgrl i saw them live, they were pretty. i bought plane crash in c there and have found myself listening to it on airplanes multiple times. 030127 ... girlnamedlover [and I can do the Frug I can do the Robocop I can do the Freddie I cannot do the Smurf and I can hate your girl I can tell you that shes real pretty I can take my clothes off I cannot fall in love and I can do the Frug I can do the Robocop I can do the Freddie I cannot do the Smurf and I can watch tv I can shuffle off to Buffalo I can do a backbend I will not call you back and I can start a book I can make some mac and cheese I can sleep twelve hours youll never see my eyes] I dont even know what the frug is. 030422 ... silentbob jenny you're barely alive 030614 ... frAnk jenny lewis sings with postal service. 030615 ... silentbob really?
