Faking like they're feeling


living on children's sugary cereal.
Sugar puffs. Coco pops. Frosties. Honey Nut. Pb capncrunch.

Reading Inferno, by Strindberg, and listening to:

My American Heart - Boys! Grab your guns

Boys, grab your guns
It's all in good fun
We're making 'em run
Making 'em run

Your name is devastation
You filled us with frustration
You could have fooled anyone
We handed up the lucky ones

And so you stood us up
And you let us down
Now you're backing off
So we're running away
I think your brain got lost in the airwaves

Boys, grab your guns
It's all in good fun
We're making 'em run
Making 'em run
Why should I feel bad?
I'm the one
With the gun in my hands
In my hands

Why are you so scared
Of running from the takers?
Why were you so afraid
Of staying in the same place?

So you stood us up
And you let us down
Now you're backing off
You've got nothing to say
I think your brain got lost in the airwaves

Boys, grab your guns
It's all in good fun
We're making 'em run
Making 'em run
Why should I feel bad?
I'm the one
With the gun in my hands

I think it's time
We've said goodbye
Wastin' all of our time
Wastin' our time
Why should you feel bad?
You're the one
With nothing on the line

It's such a shame
How you were so afraid
Of losing it all, losing it all
It's such a shame
(It's such a shame)
How it all went down this way
Oh thank God
Tomorrow's a new day

Tokyo Rose - We can be best friends tonight, but tomorrow I'll be...

I fed you all the right lines with the right lies
You gotta know I only this offer one time
One step forward and take two steps back
Everywhere we can discover all we know about each other
If we take our time and let it happen tonight

So put your best foot forward
Wear your Sunday’s best
Wear a smile all the while, until there’s no time left
To see that these things never turn out right

All around the world hear people screamin’
Makin’ love, fakin’ like they're feeling
But I’ve learned that the best way to dance
Is to take it one step at a time
