take me out, tonight.

for some unexplained reason 

"there is a light that never goes out" 

has been stuck in my head all day long.

oh morrissey, its your birthday!

thank you for soundtracking most of my early 20's angst. 

Take me out, tonight
Take me anywhere, I don't care, I don't care, I don't care.
And in a darkened under-pass,
I thought "oh god my chance has come at last"
But then a strange fear gripped and I just couldn't ask.

try a little harder.

the grip is tight. 

it might crush your scull. 

and i cant bare the weight of it. 

i'm trying. 

but it seems like you are giving in.

nineteen oh four.

the new tallest man on earth song. 

1904***

And when the night is young but the bridge is sung
Something passing by I was sure
And the only one you will tell it to
Well it's the only one who will ever know

say everything.

found this in a girl talk song, 

which directed me to say anything/ slightly obsessing over john cusack. 

this is probably the most perfectly cheesy lovesong ever.

and i have commitment issues. 

but this guys work, i would not mind.

reflex.

dimly reflected in some light.

wrapped up in some shadow. 

amused by your conflicting presence. 

never at ease. strangely calm.

But how long, babe, can you search for what's not lost ?

"Everybody will help you, 
Some people are very kind. 
But if I can save you any time, 
Come on, give it to me, 
I'll keep it with mine. 
I can't help it if you might think I am odd 
If I say I'm not loving you for what you are 
But for what you're not. 
Everybody will help you, 
Discover what you set out to find 
But if I can save you any time, 
Come on, give it to me, 
I'll keep it with mine. "

he looks a bit like zach.

Oh that's an ending that I can't write, 'cause
I've got you to let me down.

I want to be forgotten,
and I don't want to be reminded.
You say "please don't make this harder."
No, I won't yet.

I want to be beside her.
She wanna be admired.
You say "please don't make this harder."
No, I won't yet...
