I descended a dusty gravel ridge
beneath the Bixby Canyon Bridge
Until I eventually arrived
at the place where your soul had died.

Barefoot in the shallow creek,
I grabbed some stones from underneath
and waited for you to speak to me.

And the silence; it becamse so very clear
that you had long ago dissapeared.
I cursed myself for being surprised
That this didn’t play like it did in my mind.

All the way from San Francisco
As I chased the end of your road
Cause I’ve still got miles to go.

And I want to know my fate
If I keep up this way.

And it’s hard to want to stay awake
When everyone you need, they all seem to be asleep.
And you wonder if you missed your dream.

You can’t see a dream
You can’t see a dream.
You just can’t see a dream.

And then it started getting dark.
I truged back to where the car was parked
No closer to any kind of truth
as I assume was the case with you.

Why do I still have this thing? I never write, and my friends list has gotten out of control. I don't even know who most of you people are.

On the corner of main street
Just tryin' to keep it in line
You say you wanna move on and
You say I'm falling behind

I never really gave up on
Breakin' out of this two-star town
I got the green light
I got a little fight
I'm gonna turn this thing around

The good old days, the honest man;
The restless heart, the Promised Land
A subtle kiss that no one sees;
A broken wrist and a big trapeze

Oh well I don't mind, if you don't mind
'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine
Before you go, can you read my mind?

It’s funny how you just break down
Waitin' on some sign
I pull up to the front of your driveway
With magic soakin' my spine

Can you read my mind?

The teenage queen, the loaded gun;
The drop dead dream, the Chosen One
A southern drawl, a world unseen;
A city wall and a trampoline

Oh well I don't mind, if you don't mind
'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine
Before you jump
Tell me what you find when you read my mind

Slippin’ in my faith until I fall
You never returned that call
Woman, open the door, don't let it sting
I wanna breathe that fire again

She said I don't mind, if you don't mind
'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine

Put your back on me

The stars are blazing like rebel diamonds cut out of the sun
When you read my mind...

Your grand dad left home for the circus. He was young just like me,
with hope to explore. He married a girl in Virginia.
She could swing the trapeze; they could sleep on the floor.

Your mother was born in December, on the one sunny day that winter gave up.
She had warm summer eyes that flickered like fireflies,
when she stared at the world.

So why do you leave these stories unfinished,
my Cheshire cat doorstop with tears in your eyes?
Why do you look when you've already found it?
What did you find that could leave you walking by?

She was raised in a New England village.
Then she moved to LA with her firefly stare,
and you loved sunset strip when it sparkled,
you grew up and you sparkled but why don't you care?

So why do you leave these stories unfinished,
my Cheshire cat doorstop with tears in her eyes?
Why do you look when you've already found me?
What did you find that could leave you walking by?

These nights I get high just from breathing.
When I lie here with you I'm sure that I'm real,
like that firework over the freeway.
I could stay here all day but that's not how you feel.

So why do you leave these questions unanswered?
The circus awaits and you're already gone.
My Cheshire cat doorstop with fear in your smile,
what makes it so easy for you to be walking by?
And what did I do that you can't seem to want me?
Why do we lie here and whisper goodbyes?
Where can I go that your pictures won't haunt me?
What makes it so easy for you to be walking by?

A waste of time
If you don't believe
Can't decide till you
Hit the ground
Make your mind
But you're holding me down
And over again
Down
And over again
Down
"This all came out," you said.
Say something else.
Decide, who's side you're on.

So about an hour and a half ago, some stupid fuck blew through a light, and took my car from me.

If I could fight anyone.

I'd fight you


and I say this as I eat a cookie with the words "Happy Birthday Honey" written on it.

and I'm pretty sure that even with help, I still could take you.


(no i don't mean brad pitt)

On the long wet road

Staring at the side window

Clouds drawn high in grey tone.

I played jimmy eat world

On my birthday.

From the boom box that lay across my lap

On that cold bus ride home.

I didn't know what to say.



Where are you now?

The air is running out on you.

But I can breathe... with or without you.

Maybe... maybe we were made for each other

and maybe the world will look like this forever.

Last night, greatest Jack's Mannequin show ever. I got vip, and right up front. Sang every song. My life would've been complete had Andrew played Konstantine, but I settled for Me and the Moon.

I also love how no one knew the lyrics to Bulls on Parade when Whole Wheat Bread did the cover. I'm pretty sure I was the only one singing back.

Silly kids... go listen to Rage, and keep your stupid girlfriends away from pits and the front. I won't hold back just because you're an idiot, and she can't take the constant shoving, pushing, screaming, and thrashing.

Suddenly I find myself going to shows on a weekly basis now.... I'm reverting back to my high school ways.

So after being one of 30 to give blood early this morning out in front of FIU, I now have VIP/backstage/meet&greet passes to hang with Jack's Mannequin this monday.

I don't think I could be anymore excited... as after this next week, I'll have met 2/3 of my life's heroes.

How about them apples?

on a somewhat less chipper note; I'm currently missing a handful of good friends at the moment, and listening to MCS isn't helping.

PS: my birthday is in like what...2 weeks?!
