Random writing [Jul. 3rd, 2008|02:33 pm]
Been awhile since I wrote something, figured I'd give it a shot and see if I'm any good. Let's see what I end up with

-----------------------------


The Iron Cross was just another typical low-class strip joint in east LA. A fitting place for Spike to hang his hat -- metaphorically speaking, of course -- and have himself a drink. Inside Bodies writhe on the strobe-lit dance stages and inside suspended cages, and the grab-ass costumers revel heavy S&M scene. Leather. Latex. Tattoos. Body-piercings, the club clearly catered to sadist nature of its clientèle.

Over the expensive sound system, the all too familiar tune, "Closer" by Nine Inch Nails plays. A lolling tune formed, the sound of a distorted grand piano playing serenading the crowd of drunken crowd into a more frenzied state because of the lyrical content of the song, and providing the dancers proper music to writhe and move to. The ladies show off their charms -- in the most tasteful of ways -- and the men reward them with hoots and hollers and shower them in dollar bills.

You let me violate you
You let me desecrate you
You let me penetrate you
You let me complicate you.
.


The club is dimly lit, the air thick with cigarette smoke, waitresses in scant outfits, move around quickly doling out drinks -- Spike sat in the back, inside the "Champagne room", on a plush comfortable leather chair, with a glass of chilled bourbon in his hand. He treated himself to a lap dance from one of the strippers, and she was giving him his money worth.

The leggy, svelte blonde danced, her sex tantalizingly and tempting, but mostly hidden by a g-string, her morsel-like breasts out and just begging to be pinched and touched -- though that was against the rules -- she writhed, slow and sensuously in front of him, bidding -- no demanding -- his attention. She was a natural; there was no doubt about it. Her gyrations seemed to move in rhythm with the music, her knee placed between her spread legs while she shook her charms in his face.

(Help me...)
I broke apart my insides
(Help me...)
I've got no soul to sell
(Help me...)
The only thing that works for me
Help me get away from myself,


Spike barely paid attention to the stripper, his conscious mind had checked quite awhile ago. He found himself lost within the recesses of his mind, only vaguely aware of the stripper gyrating in front of him. His thoughts were fixated on his own inner musing, whatever they were. He sipped his bourbon, his eyes remaining on the breast in front of him, but not truly paying attention to him.

"Mind elsewhere, Stud?" The stripper inquired, rousing Spike from his thoughts. His head absently tilted as his blue eyes moved from her breast to look up at her startlingly beautiful counterance; blue eyed, sharp cheeks, and sensuous lips, framed by pretty blonde hair. She was something to behold "Something like that, Love." He said almost dryly.

I wanna fuck you like an animal
I wanna feel you from the inside
I wanna fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to God.


"I've been dancing for you for nearly twenty minutes on you, and the only thing stiff on your is your hair." After the remark, she ran a hand through his slicked back hair. Stiff and held in place by the large amount of gel applied to it. "You're really going to make me earn my money, huh? She quiped, to which Spike smirked lightly in response, the action adding an extra emphasis to high cheekbones, complimenting his handsome features.

You can have my isolation
You can have the hate that it brings
You can have my absence of faith
You can have my everything.


"Sorry, Pet." Spike added sounding not at all apologetic. "Didn't come here for a show, more to drown my sorrows." He raised the glass in a mock-salute to her, before taking a sip of it. "Is it working?" She asked, his shoulders lifted upwards into a shrug. "Not really, guess the bastards learned how to swim on me." She chuckled lightly -- "Too bad, my name's Cheola." Spike's eyes rolled at the name, typical "exotic" stripper moniker.. "Nice to meet you Chichi." She scowled, "Cheola." she said pointedly, to which Spike replied "Whatever".

(Help me...)
You tear down my reason
(Help me...)
It's your sex I can smell
(Help me...)
You make me perfect
Help me become somebody else.

It became a matter of pride for Chichi -- as Spike had dubbed her -- to arouse Spike, she grinded against him, rubbed her breast against his chest, dipped her head low and ran her hands along his thighs. Spike watched, head lightly canted blue eyes taking it all in. To her dismay, Spike wasn't having the proper reaction to her attentions. "Jeez, you impotent?" She asked, not trying sound as insulting as she was, it was a genuine inquiry.

I wanna fuck you like an animal
I wanna feel you from the inside
I wanna fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to God.


That scarred brow arched -- "That's one problem I don't have." He said, with his shoulder shrugging. "I suppose it just takes more than thirty dollar lap dance to get me going s'all." Her thin, tweezed brows arched at that. "Oh yeah, stud -- I get off at twelve, maybe I can get you going." Sexual tension suddenly became very thick between the two of them, "That so?" He asked, his long fingers sliding up and down her arms in an unconscious caress

She nodded, the stripper becoming almost shy suddenly, despite being near naked. "All right then, Love. Pub down the street from here, I need to go see a friend after we finish up here. You should meet me there when you get off." He sipped his bourbon, she beamed a smile at him, then stood prepared to leave. Spike lightly grasped her arm, not letting her leave. "I paid for a whole song, Pet."

Through every forest
Above the trees
Within my stomach


Chichi was more than eager to please the handsome Vampire, grinding her posterior hard into Spike's denim clad lap, letting Spike take the luxury of a favored copy and run his hands along her body while she did so.

Scraped off my knees
I drink the honey, inside your hive...
You are the reason I stay alive...


Reznors voices faded in those last lyrics, the song ending with the sound of the distorted grand piano playing once more. Chichi grinned, standing up straight, once more donning her flimsy one piece, concealing lovely breast. "See you later, Stud." She pranced out, onto her next costumer. Spike sat there for a moment, watching her exit. Standing Spike too would make his exit, heading towards the afore-mentioned pub and such.

"Passive" -- A perfect circle [Jun. 24th, 2008|05:55 am]
Dead as dead can be
My doctor tells me
But I just can't believe him
Ever the optimistic one
I'm sure of your ability
To become my perfect enemy

Wake up and face me
Don't play dead 'cause maybe
Someday I will walk away and say
You disappoint me
Maybe you're better off this way

Leaning over you here
Cold and catatonic
I catch a brief reflection
Of what you could and might have been
It's your RIGHT and your ability
To become my perfect enemy

Wake up
(Why can’t you?)
And face me
(Come on now)
Don't play dead
(Don’t play dead)
'Cause maybe
(Because maybe)
Someday
(Someday)
I will walk away and say
You disappoint me
Maybe you're better off this way

Maybe you're better off this way (×4)
You're better off this (×2)
Maybe you're better off...

Wake up
(Why can't you?)
And face me
(Come on now)
Don't play dead
(Don’t play dead)
'Cause maybe
(Because maybe)
Someday
(Someday)
I will walk away and say
You fucking disappoint me
Maybe you're better off this way!

Go ahead and play dead
(GO!)
I know that you can hear this
(GO!)
Go ahead and play dead
(GO!)

Why can't you turn and face me?
(WAKE UP!)
Why can't you turn against me?
(WAKE UP!)
Why can't you turn against me?
(WAKE UP!)
Why can't you turn against me?
(GO!)
You fucking disappoint me

Sowing Season / Untitled 08 Hybrid. [Jun. 24th, 2008|05:37 am]
Leo loved his wife
He loved her and was faithful to her always
They buried all their kids
Out on Brooklyn Heights

Praying for his life
Fighting off his heroes with his shipmates
Huddled in the corals
They dropped the bomb in '45

Is it in you now?
to better hear the truth that you have spoken.
twisted up by knaves,
to make a trap for fools.

Is it in you now?
to watch the things you gave your life to, be broken
And then stoop and build them up
With worn out tools?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah.


Nothing gets so bad,
a whisper from your father couldn't fix it.
he whispers like a bridge,
in a rivers span.

Take all that you have,
and turn it into something you were missing,
somebody threw that brick,
and shattered all your plans.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah.

Trying to get the seeds into the cold ground,
it takes some time to grow anything,
before it's coming to an end,
yeah.

Before you put my body in the cold ground,
take some time and warm it with your hands,
before its coming to an end,
yeah.

It's coming to an end.
it's coming to an end.

Do you miss a blend,
colors she left in your black and white field,
Do you feel codemned just being there?

I am not your friend!
I am just a man who knows how to feel..
I am not your friend!
I'm not your lover!
I'm not your

 (4:37:29 PM): I hate Queen. I'm glad Mercury died. Last thing the world needed is another gay musical icon. Elton John is bad enough. God at least spared us by taking one of them.
SouIless (4:37:41 PM): ...
 (4:37:54 PM): What?
SouIless (4:38:20 PM): Are you a homophobe or a religious nut?
(4:38:29 PM): Both.
SouIless (4:39:57 PM): Way to go, ruining a otherwise pleasant conversation about music, dude.
(4:40:02 PM): ?
(4:40:05 PM): What?
SouIless (4:40:42 PM): We were talking about music, you didn't have utterly shitty taste, then you go and say something like that.  You're a fag.
(4:40:52 PM): I hate fags.
SouIless (4:40:59 PM): You're a fag for hating fags, fag.
 (4:41:13 PM): Haha. That doesn't make sense.
SouIless (4:41:20 PM): Of course it doesn't, you're a fag.
 (4:42:11 PM): What? 
SouIless (4:42:25 PM): You're a homo, that's what.
(4:42:46 PM): Why? Because I hate queer rock?
SouIless (4:42:53 PM): No because you take it in the ass, obv.
(4:43:21 PM): Lol. Are you some homo supporter?
SouIless (4:43:29 PM): Are you some kind of homo?
(4:43:35 PM): No.
SouIless (4:43:44 PM): Wrong answer, fag.
(4:43:49 PM): Stfu.
SouIless (4:44:06 PM): When you die of aids, I'm going to piss on your music.
(4:44:19 PM): Lol. I don't have any music.
SouIless (4:44:25 PM): What do you do for a living?
(4:45:01 PM): Does it matter?
SouIless (4:45:05 PM): Yes.
(4:46:03 PM): I'm an accountant.
SouIless (4:46:30 PM): God, I can't wait for you to die if aids, we don't need another iconic queer accountant.  When you finally kick the bucket I'm gonna piss on all your tax return forms, you suck fag.
(4:46:33 PM): ..
(4:46:46 PM): I'm not a fag and you are making me angry.
SouIless (4:46:55 PM): What are you going to do fag? Kiss me?  I'm so scared.  Plz put down the tube of anal lube.
(4:46:59 PM): ...
(4:47:21 PM): Wanna give me a big kiss, don't you fag?

"Untitled 01" -- Brand New [Mar. 14th, 2008|03:41 pm]
Well I wrote your name and burned it
to see the color of the flame,
and it burned out the whole spectrum
As if you were everything
Mine just burned gold.
A normal flame,
I am not anything

And all that I remember is the feeling of waking up
When we were kids, you were the sun to which my eyes could not adjust
We were kids - I was a fountain
You could never drink enough

Then came all the boys who swept you up
Played careless with your heart
And every night there was a new girl
Sitting beside me in my car

Something dies when you grow older,
But you do the best you can
I am glad
I am glad
You found a good man

1-  I hate laundry.  In my whole life, I've never had to do my own laundry.  I had to look online to figure this shit out., that's how bad I am.  The fact most of my attire consist of baggy denim, hoodies, long sleeve tee shirts, and regular tees ensured that I had to do like five loads to get not even half of my laundry done.   It sucked. A lot.

2- I've been listening to a lot of Kevin Devine as of late.    Not only because Jesse Lacey is a backup singer in every other song.   Devine is pretty much baller.

3- I bought "In defense of the genre".  It's a really bad cd, which is sad, because I love Say Anything.  It has a lot of guest appearances.  This is the list;
    * Pete Yorn – backing vocals on "Skinny, Mean Man"
    * Anna Waronker (that dog.) – backing vocals on "No Soul"
    * DJ Swamp – turntable on "No Soul"
    * Adam Lazzara (Taking Back Sunday) – backing vocals on "Surgically Removing the Tracking Device"
    * Fred Mascherino (The Color Fred, formerly of Taking Back Sunday) – backing vocals on "Surgically Removing the Tracking Device"
    * Anthony Raneri (Bayside) – backing vocals on "This Is Fucking Ecstasy"
    * Hayley Williams (Paramore) – backing vocals on "The Church Channel" and "Plea"
    * Caithlin De Marrais (Rainer Maria) – backing vocals on "Shiksa (Girlfriend)"
    * Chris Carrabba (Dashboard Confessional) – backing vocals on "Retarded in Love"
    * Michael Auerbach – backing vocals on "Retarded in Love"
    * Casey Prestwood (Hot Rod Circuit) – pedal steel guitar on "Retarded in Love"
    * Trever Keith (Face to Face) – backing vocals on "People Like You Are Why People Like Me Exist"
    * Chris Conley (Saves the Day) – backing vocals on "Sorry, Dudes. My Bad."
    * Gerard Way (My Chemical Romance) – backing vocals on "In Defense of the Genre"
    * Joshua Sultan – backing vocals on "The Truth Is, You Should Lie With Me"
    * Matt Skiba (Alkaline Trio) – backing vocals on "About Falling"
    * Laura Kirsch – backing vocals on "About Falling"
    * Jordan Pundik (New Found Glory) – backing vocals on "You’re the Wanker, If Anyone Is"
    * Chad Gilbert (New Found Glory) – backing vocals on "You’re the Wanker, If Anyone Is"
    * Aaron Gillespie (Underoath & The Almost) – backing vocals on "You’re the Wanker, If Anyone Is"
    * Andy Jackson (Hot Rod Circuit) – backing vocals on "We Killed It"
    * Anthony Green (Circa Survive, formerly of Saosin) – backing vocals on "Hangover Song"
    * Kenny Vasoli (The Starting Line) – backing vocals on "Plea"
 
 That's a pretty fucking bad ass list, with the exception of a hand full .   You'd think this cd would be epic, which is totally what I was expecting. It wasn't. It's not.  There's about six good songs on it, "Church Channel", "Baby Girl, I'm a blur "This Is F---ing Ecstasy",  "Surgically removing tracking device", "Retarded In Love", "Spores".   The rest of the songs are almost intolerable.   Just a side-note I was reading Jesse Lacey's wiki and it says;

"Declined an offer from Max Bemis of Say Anything to do backing vocals on their album, In Defense of the Genre."

Smart man.  Knows a crappy cd when he sees one.

Anyway, do I regret buying the cd? No. Not 100%.  I figure every band is due to drop a stinker eventually.  But god, this cd was assy.

4-  I should complain about something valid in my life, much like a good journal owner. Well, okay I will..

I have cramps and I'm bloated. Noonch.

So, admittedly I have a Rob complex( If what that means eludes you see High Fidelity ) and today I made an attempt to get my top ten love songs, in order. Now I realized that was pretty hard, just because I rarely listen to love songs. However, four hours later, with some help from Mike, I composed a list. Don't ask why I'm composing a list, or why I have time to do such thing. The answer is obvious...

I rock. ( Shah. )



10 - Modern English, "Melt with you".

Great song and somewhat of a cliche really. It's not the only expected song on my list honestly, but it's an awesome song regardless.

9 - Blink 182, "Josie".

Great song, I want a girl that laughs at my dumb jokes when no one does, and to bring me Mexican food from Sombrero's just because. All I have to say now is..wtf Delong!? wtf delong!? wtf delong!? [ If you're confused about what I mean by that. SEE: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bFvDAng3sA ]

8 - The Postal Service, "Such great heights"

Really if you don't know why this is here. Read the lyrics, or watch it.
A: http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/Such-Great-Heights-lyrics-The-Postal-Service/8FE402646A3C9B2C48256D1E00055244
B: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hMOkfI7wCrI

7 - The Cure, "Love Song".

Yeah. I like The Cure, this song especially. Problems? Wanna start somethin'? Shut the fuck up, Mike.

6 - Snow Patrol, Chasing Cars.

Run is a better song, but this one is probably a better love song. Snow Patrol is badass, in a sensitive kind of way, I guess.

5 - Muse, "Endlessly".

"Hopelessly I'll love you endlessly
hopelessly I'll give you everything."

I can appreciate that chorus. Plus it has an organ solo in it, that's pimp.

4 - Meat Loaf, "I would do anything for love"

No explanation required here.

3 - Brand New, The No Seat Belt song.

While technically it's about unrequited love, it's a beautiful song and makes my top ten. Suck my dick if you disagree.

2 - Say Anything, "A walk through hell".

One of my all time favorite songs. I < 3 it.

1 - Foo Fighters, Everlong.

Dave Grohl is ftw in my world. And Everlong is one of the greatest songs ever, imo.




As I finish this, I realize I am a total dork.

"Stare at the sun." -- Thrice. [Mar. 4th, 2008|05:44 pm]
I sit here clutching useless lists
And keys for doors that don't exist
I crack my teeth on pearls
I tear into the history
Show me what it means to me in this world
Yeah, in this world

'Cause I am due for a miracle
I'm waiting for a sign
I'll stare straight into the sun
And I won't close my eyes
'Till I understand or go blind

I see the parts but not the whole
I study saints and scholars both
No perfect plan unfurls
Do I trust my heart or just my mind?
Why is truth so hard to find in this world?
Yeah, in this world

'Cause I am due for a miracle
I'm waiting for a sign
I'll stare straight into the sun
And I won't close my eyes
'Till I understand or go blind
('Till I understand or go blind)

I know that there's a point I've missed
A shrine or stone I haven't kissed
A scar that never graced my wrist
A mirror that hasn't met my fist
But I can't help feeling like I'm...

Due for a miracle
I'm waiting for a sign (Waiting for a sign)
I'll stare straight into the sun
And I won't close my eyes (And I won't close my eyes)

Due for a miracle
I'm waiting for a sign
Now stare straight into the sun
And I won't close my eyes

"Stranger things have happened" -- Foo Fighters [Feb. 29th, 2008|07:50 pm]
Goddamn this dusty room,
This hazy afternoon.
I'm breathing in this silence,
like never before.

This feeling that I get.
This one last cigarette.
As I lay awake,
and wait for you to come through the door

Oh maybe maybe maybe,
I can share it with you
I behave, I behave, I behave
So, I can share it with you

You were not alone,
Dear loneliness.
You forgot,
But, I remembered this
Oh stranger stranger
Stranger things have happened, I know.

I'm not alone,
Dear loneliness.
I forgot,
That I remembered this,
Oh stranger, stranger
Stranger things have happened, I know
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

We'll dream about somewhere
Our smoke will fill the air
As I lay awake and wait
For you to walk out that door
I can change, I can change, I can change
But who do you want me to be?
I'm the same I'm the same I'm the same.
What do you want me to be?

You were not alone,
Dear loneliness.
You forgot,
but, I remembered this
Oh stranger, stranger
Stranger things have happened, I know
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

I'm not alone,
Dear loneliness.
I forgot
That I remembered this
You were not alone,
Dear loneliness
You forgot,
But, I remembered this
Oh, stranger, stranger
Stranger things have happened, I know

I'm not alone,
Dear loneliness.
I forgot,
That I remember this
Oh, stranger, stranger
Stranger things have happened, I know
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

"Slow Down Ghandi". -- Sage Francis [Feb. 29th, 2008|10:43 am]
There once was a song called "Arrest The President."
Contemporary music, a hit with the kids, it was a top ten.
I wasn't pop then, so I missed the bus a bit,
But politics was on everybody's hot this summer list.
The cool kids were all rocking votes,
I shit you not, I was pistol whippin' cops for hip hop. [Booyea!]

On my soap box yelling into megaphones.
Killing hard rocks using carcasses as stepping stones.
Had to promise that I'd stop holding my marches
The day that Chris Columbus got crucified on golden arches.
My pedestal was too tall to climb off,
In fact that's the reason for the high horse.
And from up here I see Marines and Hummers on a conquest;
Underdogs with wonderbras in a push-up contest,
All for the sake of military recruitment.
It felt like Kent State the way they targeted the students,
I galloped off whistling "Ohio."
The rest of them, stuck doing stand up at a cricket convention.
What would they die for? (What would they die for?)
Is it the same machine that leaves the quality of life poor?
An abominable colony of cyborgs?
Clogging up the property that I bought with eyesores?

That clever ad campaign ain't worth
The time taken from minimum wage labor;
I don't care how half-naked or fake she looks,
She smells like dirty cash and aged paper books.
What would she die for?
Slow down Gandhi, you're killin' em
Slow down Gandhi, you're killin' em.

Now it's whistle blower vs. the pistol holder;
Case dismissed, they'll lock you up and throw away the key witness.
Justice is the whim of a judge, check his chest density,
It leaves much room for error, and the rest left to destiny.
The West Memphis 3 lost paradise,
It's death penalty vs. suicidal tendencies.
All I wanted was a fucking Pepsi.
Institution.
Making you think you're crazy is a billion dollar industry.
If they could sell sanity in a bottle
They'd be charging for compressed air,
And marketing healthcare.
They demonize welfare,
Middle class eliminated,
Rich get richer til the poor get educated.

But some of y'all still haven’t grown into your face,
And your face doesn't quite match your head.
And I'm waiting for a brain to fill the dead space that's left,
You're all, "Give me ethnicity or give me dreads."
Trustafundian rebel without a cause for alarm,
Cause when push turns to shove
You jump into your forefathers arms.
He's a banker, you're part of the system,
Off go the dreadlocks in comes the income.
The briefcase (the freebase)
The sickness (the symptom.)
When the cameras start rollin' stay the fuck outta the picture pilgrim!
The briefcase (the freebase)
The sickness (the symptoms)
When the cameras start rollin'...
Slow down Gandhi, you're killin' em.

Mr. Save The World, spare us the details,
Save the females from losing interest.
And Miss Save The Universe,
You're a damsel in distress,
Tied down to a track of isolated incidents.
Generalize my disease,
I need a taste of what it's like.
Living off the fat of kings,
I play the scab at your hunger strike.
Slow down Gandhi, you're killin'em.

One love, one life, one too many victims.
Republicrat, Democran, one party system.
Media goes in a frenzy,
They're stripped of their credentials.
Presidential candidates can't debate over this instrumental.
Let 'em freestyle, winner takes all,
When the music’s dead, I'll have Ted Nugent’s head hangin' on my wall.
Kill one of ours, we'll kill one of yours.
With some friendly fire, that’s a funny term, like civil war.

Six in the morning, police at my crib.
Now my nights consist of two toothpicks and eyelids.
The crucifix and vitamins, music that is pirated.
New flavored food made of mutated hybrids.
Uh, they tell me that it's not that bad.
It fucks you up good, but its not that bad.
They hold on to these tales till it's the dog that wags.
God save us all if he lets the cat out the bag.

Who's the one to blame for this strain in my vocal chords?
Who can pen a hateful threat but can't hold a sword?
It's the same who complain about the global war,
But can't overthrow the local joker that they voted for.

They call the shots
(but they're not in the line of fire).
I call the cops
(but they're breakin the line of duty).
Lets call a stop to the abuse of authority.
The truth keeps callin' me, and I'ma live to tell the story.

So look for truth, quit seeking forgiveness.
You need to cut the noose, but you don't believe in scissors.
You support the troops by wearing yellow ribbons?
Just bring home my motherfuckin' brothers and sisters.

Cause they don't call the shots
(but they're in the line of fire).
I'd like to call the cops
(but they're breakin' the line of duty).
It's time to call a stop
(To the abuse of authority).
The truth keeps calling me
And I'ma live to tell the story.

My youplayer. [Feb. 29th, 2008|10:09 am]
These are the current songs on my youplayer playlist.

1 - Live performance of "You won't know" , where Lacey totally freaks out. It rocks and is arguably one of my favorite performances ever. I actually like it better than the cd version, and that's a rare for me. // http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IbdZIx035c

2 - Will Ferrell & Dave Grohl doing Leather and Lace. I think it's bad ass, some people tend to disagree. // http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlLzAWUY6Xo

3 - Legion of Doom remixing underOATH "It's Dangerous Business walking out your front door" and mewithoutyou "January 1979". This is straight up pimp, and if you don't like it I think you might be retarded. // http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ybS3OcgwXg&feature=related

4 - Nirvana covering More Than a Feeling, then going into Teen Spirit. This really shows how similar the chords to "More than a feeling" are to Teen spirit. I've pretty much been listening to this all week. // http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OY3cnQ_WpSw

5 - Dead poetic "Vices". Pretty sexy song. // http://youtube.com/watch?v=0le34pE72DE
6 - "Boy who blocked his own shot", with Kevin Devine. Live out of the house of blues. This is just straight up baller. // http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1_pmrRzhMQ

7 - Snow Patrol "Run". 'Nuff said. // http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Qen3Xovtfc

8 - And the freshman, I know, it's a bitch song. But, with some coercion Mike somehow made me like it. // http://youtube.com/watch?v=sVNAp1C8LIw

9 - Taking Back Sunday, "Cute without the E". It has Nolan in it, so it's not gay. Nolan is straight up pimp // http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JduO4OGZKY8

10 - Straylight run "Hands in the sky", I think pretty highly of Nolan and this is a great song. // http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXPAar-D1sQ

Honorable mentions;
Die Hard -- Guyz Nite // http://youtube.com/watch?v=R5in09EwYV0
Sage Francis "Slow down Ghandi" // http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yv1H197pL8M
Some fan vid that rocks. // http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Erq31cuX_SY&feature=related
Institutionalized Suicidal Tendencies [ It's a classic! ] // http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXK0Hjfkrgw


I'm bored with this already, but I killed twenty minutes.

"Summer 1972" -- Manchester Orchestra [Feb. 28th, 2008|07:18 pm]
When my dad died the worms ate out both his eyes.
His soul flew right up in the sky and I cried myself to sleep.

My mother lies alone on her back at night.
Adding up hours till her demise, she counts herself to sleep.

When my sister finds my body closed up like the blinds,
I tell her I promise its fine, but she cries herself to sleep.

The men in black ties arrive at the house in surprise.
To find a little girl by your side in the wood box where you're sleeping.

I still see you inside of this God-awful house
You move awfully quiet now
And I still feel you everywhere
You told me this has always been worth living,
But what's really worth living anymore?

"The Futile" -- Say Annything [Feb. 28th, 2008|06:33 pm]
Shit!
Nothing makes sense, so I won't think about it. I'll go with the ignorance.
Eat, sleep, fuck and flee; in four words, that's me.
I am full of indifference.

What do the old people teach us but how to die (die) die (die)
and what do those hissy fits teach you except how to cry, pussy, cry?
Yeah the futile, the futile, it outweighs the beautiful.
Futile, the futile, it outweighs the beautiful.
Futile, the futile, the futile so (the futile, the futile)

Taste. I have no taste.
I don't like these tiny portions with your artful abortions of sound,
sealed with a kiss, slathered in the sauce sarcastic.
So go choke on your irony.

What do the old people teach us but how to die (die) die (die) die
and what do your hissy fits teach you except how to cry, pussy, cry?
Yeah the futile, the futile, it outweighs the beautiful.
Futile, the futile, it outweighs the beautiful.
Futile, the futile, the futile so

I'm eating rat poison for dinner.
Pull the cord from the phone. I am dining alone,
Tonight, rat poison for dinner.
Pull the cord from the phone. I am dining alone,
So goodnight.

Love! I shall not love, yet I'll still sing about it.
I hope it covers the ocean in slime, the drama and drool.
I'm leaking the blood of a fool. (I'm full of it, I'm full of it, I'm full.)
Rat poison for dinner,
pull the chord from the phone. I am dining alone.
Tonight. Rat poison for dinner,
pull the chord from the phone. I am dining alone.
Tonight.
Oh I am dining alone.
Tonight. Tonight. Tonight.

"Car" -- Brand New. [Feb. 28th, 2008|06:27 pm]
You get the car
I'll get the night off
You'll get the chance to take the world apart and figure out how it works
Don't let me know what you find out
I need a car
You need a guide
Who needs a map
If I don't die or worse I'm gonna need a nap
At best I'll be asleep when you get back
I wanna see it when you find out what comets, stars, and moons are all about
I wanna see their faces turn to backs of heads and slowly get smaller
I wanna see it now
I want specifics on the general idea
I wanna think what I should know
Want you to do me what to show
I wanna see movies of my dreams
I wanna see movies of my dreams
I wanna see movies of my dreams
I wanna see movies of my dreams
I wanna see it when you get stoned on a cloudy breezy desert afternoon
I wanna see it untame itself and break its owner
I wanna see it now
I wanna see it now

1 - I haven't written a single thing in about week. Majors writer block as of late. Someone should inspire me.
2 - I picked up the Manchester Orchestra cd, on Mike's recommendation, which is titled "I'm like A Virgin Losing a Child". I laughed at the name. I probably shouldn't have laughed.
3 - I saw "Be Kind Rewind" which was weird, but still awesome. Jack Black and Mos Def are kickass together.
4 - My friend was drunk in tower records when I bought the said cd, he was listening to the the sample songs and screaming the lyrics on the top of his lungs. My explanation doesn't do it justice, but to see a drunk white guy singing Ghost Face killah and shaking his ass is nothing short of hilarious.
5 - I saw Be Kind Rewind with my ex girlfriend. Yes, I can't seem to get rid of any of my ex girlfriends. In this ones case, we might end up getting back together, we've been talking a lot as of late. Frankly yours truly needs some loving too, been awhile.
6 - Another movie that was pimp was Charlie Bartlett. That movie is def ftw. Mike recommended that too, which goes to show you gay guys have remarkable taste.
7 - I've got a five o'clock shadow. I look pimp.

"Haligh, Haligh, A Lie, Haligh" -- Brighteyes [Feb. 24th, 2008|10:49 am]
The phone slips from a loose grip.
Words were missed, then some apology.
I didn’t want to tell you this—
No, it’s just some guy she’s been hanging out with—
I don’t know, the past couple of weeks, I guess.

Thank you and hang up the phone.
Let the funeral start, hear the casket close.
Let’s pin split-black ribbon to your overcoat.
The laughter pours from under doors in this house.
I don’t understand that sound no more.
Seems artificial, like a T.V. set.

Haligh, Haligh, a lie, Haligh
This weight, it must be satisfied.
You offer only one reply.
You know not what you do.
As you tear and tear your hair from roots.
Of that same head you’ve twice removed
Now a lock of hair you said would prove
Our love would never die.
Well, ha ha ha.

I remember everything
The words we spoke on freezing South Street
All those mornings watching you
Get ready for school.
You combed your hair inside that mirror,
The one you painted blue
And glued with jewelry tears.
Something about those bright colors
Would always make you feel better.

But now we speak with ruined tongues
And the words we say aren’t meant for anyone.
It’s just a mumbled sentence to
A passing acquaintance,
But there was once you.
You said you hate my suffering, and you understood,
And you’d take care of me.
You'd always be there.
Well, where are you now?

Haligh, Haligh, a lie, Haligh,
The plans were never finalized,
But left to hang like yarn and twine,
Dangling before my eyes.
As you tear and tear your hair from roots
From that same head that you have twice removed
Now, a lock of hair you said would prove
Our love would never die.
And I sing and sing of awful things
(The pleasure that my sadness brings)
As my fingers press onto the strings,
Yet another clumsy chord.

Haligh, Haligh, an awful lie.
This weight would now be satisfied.
I'm gonna give you only one reply,
I know not who I am.
But I talk in the mirror
To the stranger that appears.
Our conversations are circles
Always one sided, nothing is clear.
Except we keep coming back
To this meaning that I lack.
He says the choices were given
And now, you must live them
Or just not live,
But do you want that?
