it would mean more than you could believe to me if you came. every/anyone at all.

"it is language that speaks, not the author."

deconstruction is just as limiting as modernism, and that's annoying.
and postmodernism is really bothering me too, because nothing is changing.
in my opinion, a critique should be a stepping stone to better something.
analyzing is great if you can find a way to use it.
I just wish there was a way to really use it outside of expression in media or simple lifestyle change.

How does a philosophy catch on?

So, nevermind. It's not easy for me to stay away from drinking right now. That's all I want to do.
just forget.
Chorus rehearsal reminded me of so, so much. I thought I was done being overcome by memories, but I'm not.
I started crying during the last few minutes and it just got worse. And I watched them singing. I guess I really shouldn't have.
I remembered the way he looked when he was 11 years old, and it killed me.
I remembered meeting them. I remembered all the time we spent together.
And every fucking thing we went through. It was so much more than most people have to.
Now I can't stop crying.
I just want to forget.

It's 5:11am now. I never did get back to sleep.
No, instead I decided to torture myself with dumb old memories. And then I went outside.
Because I'm a moron.
And I stood there, shaking, looking at the ground and wondering:
"Why doesn't anything ever really change?"

This was a very hard day.
I am the result of 16 years of

Today I learned that everyone has empathy for eachother, somewhere inside, simply because we all feel isolated.
Because of this knowledge, I just feel more defeated.
I don't think I believe in empathy anymore. Sympathy, sure. Pity, indeed.
But I have never met anyone that really understood. And this kills me all the time.

This is me.

I am scared to death.

there's so much hope buried underneath tragedy

2006-02-01T03:04:15Z

I sound like I'm dying.
But holy shit.
I can scream like I'm in CTTS..

I think this new band might be exactly what I've needed for the past, um, 16 years of my life.
I would have never guessed I could make that much noise.

don't be frightened by the storm

Last night I learned how much I can handle before losing my mind. Illness, finally giving up on old friends, a ton of dumb school things, very little alcohol, new realization & confession, and some really exciting things. I've seen a huge change in my life in just this past month. Thank you new year.

Alright. So.
I may be booking two shows in April. I have so much to do until then to make sure it goes well. But I'm ready for it, and at least I don't have to go about it alone... This show seems promising:

to quote adrian-
"Privacy (Kansas) (most beautiful songs sung by a woman)
A John Henry Memorial (Minnesota) (most beautiful songs sun by a man)
The Watery Graves of Portland (Pennsylvania) (most beautiful dancing on the furniture of the mind)
Adrian Orange & The Moving Sky Thanksgiving Band (hullabaloo)"

Hopefully this will be Sunday, April 2nd at the Spark. Still in the works though.
I was going to book Slingshot Dakota to play this show, but today I got a message from them, and they need a date in the middle of the month. So that kind of fucks up my plan, but hopefully I'll be able to work something out.
Other news, I can't wait to see hot cross.

Aaaanyway, things are looking up!

I HAVE FOUND A REASON TO DO MY SCHOOL WORK & ANYTHING ELSE I COULD POSSIBLY HAVE TO DO.
If I can book these bands, I'll die. I swear to god. I don't think I could be happier. Can anyone help out? I've never booked a show before.

fill your heart with smoke

2005-12-09T04:13:56Z

I can't handle it when this happens. Nothing will ever change...
not one thing. Not one real emotion, not any interaction. I don't know what I should be learning from that.
I never know what to say: I know if I even say anything at all, I'll regret it in a second. So there you have it, the reason that "i don't know" a single thing.

if anyone has $30 and wants to make me fall in love with the world

I don't know what to say about last night, except:
some creepy kid asked for my autograph,
silos is doomed if we don't practice more,
& I don't want to play at the teen center ever again.

the chapter is closed

2005-11-16T21:28:37Z

Music is going to save my life.
There isn't much else I feel comfortable saying now, except that I'm making changes.
I'm cutting back on drinking.
I'm glad the school caught fire today.

I wish you had been my father.

A beautiful mess, stationary in space.

2005-10-22T20:31:59Z

i know you didn't mean it and you're sorry that i left
i'll go right on pretending i've got nothing to regret
except all of the times we wasted getting only second best
you always seemed to lose the spark when i was only half undressed
i drove across a sea of ice to find my own command
the distance paid a lonesome price to see its motherland
now if you would unbuckle sir, receive your reprimand
and hey i'm sorry 'bout so much baby but i know you'll understand
i'm sorry 'bout so much baby but i know you'll understand

how can i ever apologize? i meant you no such harm
i never knew i could possess that fatal kind of charm
i just wanted to be good to you but i found i was disarmed
by a lifetime of disillusionment and the distraction of the stars
i abdicated now i'm just a prince without a land
my subjects all adore me but for this i have been banned
now could i trade my guilt for a good flogging by your hand?
and hey i'm sorry 'bout so much baby but i know you'll understand
i'm sorry 'bout so much baby but i know you'll understand

i can't understand why you refuse my one request
just to press against my weaponry and then lay bare your chest
challenges like these can be won or lost or laid to rest
now we both agree to separate from the lonely castle steps
the kingdom is destabilized, the watchtower unmanned
the bedroom lies abandoned and the future is unplanned
but we've got the past to remind us of what's chivalrous and grand
and hey i'm sorry 'bout so much baby but i know you'll understand
i'm sorry 'bout so much baby but i know you'll understand

there are times you can't make it alone

2005-10-10T18:28:16Z

I knew going to the service was a bad idea. I knew it'd bring up all these old feelings.
But, to tell the truth, it wasn't a horrible trade-off. I'd gladly suffer my own awful traps to show a friend I'm here.
Pete, I'm sorry I don't have the words yet. When they come, you'll be the first to know.

i wish we didn't have to go about things this way.
