Relationships...

Posted 16th October 2007 at 10:30pm by AMillionScreams

Well I have never made a serious blog in my life. I've used this to enter some lyrics I like. Well now I've got a bit on my mind I feel I want to get it down in writing somewhere. So yeah relationships...

I split up with a long term girlfriend in March this year. It was amicable to be fair and although we came to a mutual decision I could see how unhappy she was. It was difficult to let go but I knew it was best for both of us.

So ensued a couple months of feeling fairly...

Stephin Merritt - genius

I don\'t believe in the Sun

They say there\'s a sun in the sky
but me, I can\'t imagine why
There might have been one
before you were gone
but now all I see is the night, so

I don\'t believe in the sun

How could it shine down on everyone
and never shine on me

How could there be
such cruelty.

The only sun I ever knew ...

You have dogs instead of children / You take long walks instead of spending time with your husband / But if I had a husband like you / I would take long walks too / You're standing in the supermarket / Watching the boy at the checkout and making love to him In your head again / You know it's sad, but you can't stop / It's the only fun you get when you shop / And maybe someday he'll turn round and say / That you are the most beautiful girl in the world / And he'll be Elvis Presley / To your Marilyn...

June on the west coast.

i spent a week drinking the sunlight of winnetka, california
where they understand the weight of human hearts
you see sorrow gets too heavy and joy it tends to hold you
with the fear that it eventually departs.
and the truth is i've been dreaming of some tired tranquil place
where the weather won't get trapped inside my bones
and if all the years of searching find one sympathetic face
then its there i will plant these seeds and make my home

despair

Posted 15th February 2003 at 2:30pm by AMillionScreams

Crushed.

Another day i sit alone and yearn for love, another minute scrapes by expanding the duration of this chasm of darkness i find myself in. Where is the light i need to guide me from this hole, a hand to hold... even a kind face upon which to look.

I dont even know if i have a heart inside this body anymore. It has been so long since i have felt the slightest pulse of emotion from its broken flesh. Where does salvation lie, how long will this desperation last......
