one eye in the sun

one in the night


i think i've been walking in my sleep and dreaming through my days.

i feel stuck in between where i've been and where i'm going. i don't mind it, i'm just happy to have made it out alive. i was beginning to think it'd never end.


lately, i've hardly recognized you at all.

c’mon, can you count all the notches in your belt?
i'd rather not, let's just say i'm starving myself.
baby, put your name down on a piece of paper,
i don’t want no savior baby, i just wanna have a good time
oh, oh, at least i’m not as sad as i used to be.
c’mon can you count all the loves that didn’t last?
it’s such a gas when you bring up the past.
baby, put your name down on a piece of paper.
i don’t want no savior baby
i just wanna get it out.
i don’t fall in love, i just fake it.
i don’t fall in love. i don’t fall in love.

with buried heads, we both forget

it's been years since i last saw you. it's funny how everything rushes back so quickly. it's like hearing a song on the radio that you hadn't heard since you were a kid and every word comes back to you as if you'd heard it everyday.

i've missed you, doll.

"i'll be holding all the tickets..."

"..but you'll be owning all the fines."

endings have never been my strong suit. they always end in someone getting hurt and it's usually me. i can handle that though; i'm used to that. it's hurting someone else that i can't do. there's no right way.

just another hit and miss.


heard your broken voice on the telephone
made my heavy heart sink like a stone
and after all this time, i should have known
you'd let me down
right down to the bone
you know you're right, im incomplete
and i could never write down what i mean
and if you told me that the world, was ending tonight
that's alright by me
hey babe
i feel as though, i failed you
i feel as though, you don't want me
i keep kickin' myself
they say that anything can be replaced
found another girl to pass the days
she is beautiful, she has your face
there is nothing, time will not erase
and hey babe, I feel as though I've lost you
and I feel as though, you dont want me and I keep kickin' myself
and lately, when i sleep alone
i feel that, i oughta learn
you dont need me
just stop kidding myself

im loving this song and video

it's tricky when

"With a palmful of stars
I throw them like dice
Repeatedly
I shake them like dice
And throw them on the table
Repeatedly
Repeatedly
Until the desired constellation appears"

let's try this again.

why is it that we always seem to miss each other? the timing is always off with you and i. and, somehow, you always seem to find me again. i never wait around for you. i know you wouldn't want me to.

i've never been the type to hesitate. Regret is my least favorite feeling. so, once again, i am not waiting around for you, i'm going to take another chance on something else and see where this takes me. i think it will be very worth it.

i do miss those long drives and aimless conversations.
we seemed to say everything and nothing all at once.

"i love that, no matter how long we go without talking, it feels like nothings changed."
"me too."

i feel like we're back in that empty parking lot, in your white alero, years ago and you're telling me how you're so sorry, but that this is all you can give me and i'm still strangely content with the idea because somehow i know that one way or another i'll always have you.

you're the only bridge i haven't burned.
