i knew a man who lived in fear
it was huge, it was angry, it was drawing near
behind his house, a secret place
was the shadow of the demon he would never face
he built a wall of steel and flame
and men with guns, to keep it tame
then, standing back, he made it plain
that the nightmare would never ever rise again
but the fear and the fire and the guns remain
it doesn't matter now
it's over anyhow
he tells the world that it's sleeping
but as the night came round
i heard its lonely sound
it wasn't roaring, it was weeping
and then one day, the neighbors came
they were curious to know about the smoke and flame
they stood around outside the wall
but of course there was nothing to be heard at all
"my friends", he said, "we've reached our coal
the threat is under firm control
as long as peace and order reign
i'll be damned if i can see a reason to explain
why the fear and the fire and the guns remain"
it doesn't matter now
it's over anyhow
he tells the world that it's sleeping
but as the night came round
i heard its lonely sound
it wasn't roaring, it was weeping... |

| eventful evening |
[Oct. 21st, 2006|03:40 pm] |
ok so let's discuss last night, shall we? sarah and i went to go to the midnight movie, where we met a nice chap by the name of zach. we talked with him for awhile and then enjoyed CRY BABY, that lovely 80's movie with johnny depp <3 love it. anywho. after that we went to go pick up her novio. and on the way home we may have been involved in a mass evacuation of a parking lot of a club (yeah, you guessed it...chubby's). anywho, we think there was another shooting or something. maybe a stabbing, but someone got hurt hardcore. so we were leaving, forced to go in a direction opposite of where we live. so we took the scenic route...through french town lol. lionel pointed out some drug dealers, and where the prostitutes hang. always nice to know. ick. remind me never to drive through french town again. it wasn't scary or anything, but i'd rather not be there after dark lol. poor sarah, she was a little nervous i think. i guess if iwas anyone other than the driver i would be too. 4 people almost hit my car leaving the parking lot. craziness. so that's my evening. eventful, yet, not really the good kind of eventful lol.
other than that...I AM DONE WITH MIDTERMS. and that is exciting. and i'm going to go read the ny times and listen to some josh groban and maybe drink some tea. i need a coffee maker. i like coffee. maybe i'll go get some today. anyone up for a trip to the vintage store? sarrrahhh? lol. |

 | You scored as agnosticism. You are an agnostic. Though it is generally taken that agnostics neither believe nor disbelieve in God, it is possible to be a theist or atheist in addition to an agnostic. Agnostics don't believe it is possible to prove the existence of God (nor lack thereof).
Agnosticism is a philosophy that God's existence cannot be proven. Some say it is possible to be agnostic and follow a religion; however, one cannot be a devout believer if he or she does not truly believe.

just one year of love
is better than a lifetime alone
one sentimental moment in your arms
is like a shooting star right through my heart
it’s always a rainy day without you
i’m a prisoner of love inside you -
i’m falling apart all around you - yeah
my heart cries out to your heart
i’m lonely but you can save me
my hand reaches up for your hand
i’m cold but you light the fire in me
my lips search for your lips
i’m hungry for your touch
there’s so much left unspoken
and all I can do is surrender
to the moment just surrender
no one ever told me
that love would hurt so much
and pain is so close to pleasure
and all i can do is surrender
to your love
just surrender to your love
just one year of love
is better than a lifetime alone
one sentimental moment in your arms
is like a shooting star right through my heart
it's always a rainy day without you
i'm a prisoner of love inside you
i'm falling apart all around you
and all i can do is surrender

...once i thought my innocence was gone, now i know that happiness goes on. that's where you found me when you put your arms around me. i haven't been there for the longest time...i'm that voice you're hearing in the hall. and the greatest miracle of all is how i need you and how you needed me too. that hasn't happened for the longest time. maybe this won't last very long but you feel so right, i could be wrong. maybe i've been hoping too hard, but i've come this far and it's more than i hoped for. who knows how much further we'll go on. maybe i'll be sorry when you're gone. i'll take my chances, i forgot how nice romance is. i haven't been there for the longest time... |

that you have the most beautiful face
do you realize
we're floating in space
do you realize
that happiness makes you cry
do you realize
that everyone you know someday will die
and instead of saying all of your goodbyes
let them know you realize that life goes fast
it's hard to make the good things last
you realize the sun doesn't go down
it's just an illusion caused by the world spinning 'round

did i disappoint you or let you down?
should i be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
'cause i saw the end before we'd begun,
yes i saw you were blinded and i knew i had won.
so i took what's mine by eternal right.
took your soul out into the night.
it may be over but it won't stop there,
i am here for you if you'd only care.
you touched my heart you touched my soul.
you changed my life and all my goals.
and love is blind and that i knew when,
my heart was blinded by you.
i've kissed your lips and held your head.
shared your dreams and shared your bed.
i know you well, i know your smell.
i've been addicted to you.
goodbye my lover.
goodbye my friend.
you have been the one.
you have been the one for me.
i am a dreamer but when i wake,
you can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.
and as you move on, remember me,
remember us and all we used to be
i've seen you cry, i've seen you smile.
i've watched you sleeping for a while.
i'd be the father of your child.
i'd spend a lifetime with you.
i know your fears and you know mine.
we've had our doubts but now we're fine,
and i love you, i swear that's true.
i cannot live without you.
goodbye my lover.
goodbye my friend.
you have been the one.
you have been the one for me.
and i still hold your hand in mine.
in mine when i'm asleep.
and i will bear my soul in time,
when i'm kneeling at your feet.
goodbye my lover.
goodbye my friend.
you have been the one.
you have been the one for me.
i'm so hollow, baby, i'm so hollow.
i'm so, i'm so, i'm so hollow.

look at this big eyed fish swimming in the sea...oh how he dreams to be a bird, swooping, diving through the breeze...so one day he caught this big ole' wave up onto the beach...now the fish is dead you see...cause fish should know...stay down in the sea
but oh god, under the weight of life things seem brighter on the other side...
story of this man who decided not to breathe...he turned red then blue then purple...so colorful indeed...no matter how his friends begged and pleaded he would not concede...now the man is dead you see...cause every man should know you got to breathe...
but oh god, under the weight of life things seem brighter on the other side...oh god, but under the weight of life things seem much brighter on the other side...no way...
you see this monkey sitting up in his tree until one day he decided to climb down to the city...but look at him now, tired and drunk...the monkey's living in the street...as good as dead you see...cause every monkey should know, stay up in your fucking tree...

i guess that civilization, nature and tai chi class really did influence me a bit...hmmm...is it a coincidence that my dad just got me three books on taoism from a garage sale...or FATE lol.
You fit in with:
Taoism
Your ideals mostly resemble those of the Taoist faith. Spirituality is the most important thing in your life. You strive to live by all of your ideals, and live a very intellectually focused life.
40% spiritual.
0% reason-oriented.

so i should be studying...but i'm not...so....yeah...
i really like this song...it's called "fix you" by coldplay...i guess it kind of fits how i'm feeling...a bit...
"when you try your best but you don't succeed
when you get what you want but not what you need
when you feel so tired but you can't sleep
stuck in reverse
and the tears come streaming down your face
when you lose something you can't replace
when you love someone but it goes to waste
could it be worse?
lights will guide you home
and ignite your bones
and i will try to fix you
and high up above or down below
when you're too in love to let it go
but if you never try you'll never know
just what you're worth
lights will guide you home
and ignite your bones
and i will try to fix you
tears stream down your face
when you lose something you can not replace
tears stream down your face
and i...
tears stream down your face
i promise you i will learn from my mistakes
tears stream down your face
and i...
lights will guide you home
and ignite your bones
and i will try to fix you"
i also like how on itunes it tells you the last time you played a song...i haven't played "when you say you love me" since feb. 20th, 2005 at 12:55 am...good times...that was a time when i could relate to this song...
"like the sound of silence calling i hear your voice and suddenly i'm falling, lost in dream...like the echoes of our souls are meeting, you say those words, my heart stops beating, i wonder what it means...what could it be that comes over me, at times i can't move, at times i can hardly breathe...when you say you love me the world goes still, so still inside and, when you say you love me, for a moment there's no one else alive...you're the one i've always thought of, i don't know how but i feel sheltered in your love, you're where i belong...and when you're with me if i close my eyes there are times i swear i feel like i can fly, for a moment in time, somewhere between the heavens and earth, i'm frozen in time oh when you say those words...when you say you love me, the world goes still so still inside and, when you say you love me, for a moment there's no one else alive...and this journey that we're on, how far we've come and i celebrate every moment...and when you say you love me, that's all you have to say, i'll always feel this way...when you say you love me the world goes still, so still inside and, when you say you love me for in that moment i know why i'm alive...when you say you love me...when you say you love me do you know how i love you."
hm...yeah...can't say that anymore... |
