also...

This should be every girl's anthem:




Every time i turn the conversation to something deeper than the weather i can feel you all but shuttin' down.
And when i need an explanation for the silence you just tell me you don't wanna talk about it now.

Bridge: 1
What you're not saying is coming in loud and clear we're at a crossroads here...

Chorus:
If i'm not the one thing you can't stand to lose
If i'm not that arrow to the heart of you
If you don't get drunk on my kiss
If you think you can do better than this then i guess we're done
Let's not drag this on
Consider me gone

Verse 2:
With you i've always been wide open like a window or an ocean. there is nothing i've ever tried to hide.
So when you leave me not knowin' where you're goin' i start thinkin' that we're lookin' we're lookin' at goodbye.

Bridge 2:
How about a strong shot of honesty don't you owe that to me...

Chorus:
If i'm not the one thing you can't stand to lose
If i'm not that arrow to the heart of you
If you don't get drunk on my kiss
If you think you can do better than this then i guess we're done
Let's not drag this on
Consider me gone.

Consider me a memory.
Consider me the past.
Consider me a smile in an old photograph someone who used to make you laugh.

If i'm not the one thing you can't stand to lose
If i'm not that arrow to the heart of you
Then i guess we're done let's not drag this on.
Consider me gone.
Consider me gone.
Consider me gone.
Just consider me gone. 


some good ol' alanis for ya!


I recommend getting your heart trampled on to anyone
I recommend walking around naked in your living room
Swallow it down (what a jagged little pill)
It feels so good (swimming in your stomach)
Wait until the dust settles

You live you learn
You love you learn
You cry you learn
You lose you learn
You bleed you learn
You scream you learn

I recommend biting off more then you can chew to anyone
I certainly do
I recommend sticking your foot in your mouth at any time
Feel free
Throw it down (the caution blocks you from the wind)
Hold it up (to the rays)
You wait and see when the smoke clears

You live you learn
You love you learn
You cry you learn
You lose you learn
You bleed you learn
You scream you learn

Wear it out (the way a three-year-old would do)
Melt it down (you're gonna have to eventually anyway)
The fire trucks are coming up around the bend

You live you learn
You love you learn
You cry you learn
You lose you learn
You bleed you learn
You scream you learn

You grieve you learn
You choke you learn
You laugh you learn
You choose you learn
You pray you learn
You ask you learn
You live you learn

and so it is...

1:44 a.m.

a little drunk.  but feeling good.  PEOPLE.  People inspire me.  Good people, bad people, weird people, sad people, happy people.  just people.  I love humans.  always offering a new perspective, or a moment of humility, or a gigantic laugh, or a tear, or a smile or a strange voice.  haha.

Just put on my pjs after spending some time on the glorious porch with some fabulous people.  i drank wine, right out of the bottle.  cause im classy like that.  and smoked cigarettes like they aren't making me cough (a lot).  my girl and i jammed to some tunes.  ill post some lyrics post post (i said post three times).

So life goes on.  time really is the healer, everyone said it would be.  That advice is hard to digest when you need to be immediately better. however, they were right.  really right.  time and healing.  thats a curious topic.  am i all better?  i think mostly.  healed from the pain that tried to swallow my soul?  i believe i am.  have i returned to the person i was before the flood of darkness?  no.  because i can't be that person again.  i am still me, but a different, weathered, slightly jagged, liberated and reformed me.

after suffering from a completely unexpected severance of love, i have regained consciousness.  but it is in a new light.  this is my bounce back people.  but my bounce is different now.  ok!

my hailed-on heart is going to be ok.  i actually might even be better.  maybe never as innocent again, but refigured and massed together nonetheless.  my tears and cries and memories and pains have brought me to the place i am now.  and, i am ok with it.  its the shit we go through that make us stronger right?  so, i proclaim that here and now, i am stronger because of what i have experienced.

no regrets.

i wouldn't take it back or undo it.  any of it.  as hard as that is to confess, i mean it.

time to live this life, and love with all i got.

cheers kids!
