have you ever driven all the way to work, pulled into your parking spot and realized you don’t remember the actual ride? i swear i was paying attention… maybe it’s monotony.

i’m thinking too much. my brain never stops. and i never get a break from it, you, them, stuff. i’m daydreaming too much. thinking about this, that, what is, could be. but aren’t you kinda dead if you stop all that thinking and daydreaming? it certainly would be easier tho. nothing is ever easy. why can’t your obvious path just be there, lit up, with pretty white christmas lights, beckoning you forward? why isn’t it ok to enjoy what makes you feel good and go where you feel loved? and why do we have to worry about hurting everyone along the way? are we all really that important? i wonder why i think i’m so important. or maybe i just wish i was important to someone. my head hurts today.

i’m having a serious emily obsession. how could i not…

cursed with a love that you can’t express.
it’s not for a fuck or a kiss.
rather give the world away than wake up lonely,
everywhere in every way i see you with me.

crowd surf off a cliff, land out on the ice.
crowd surf off to sea, float toward the beach.
if you find me, hide me, i don’t know where i’ve been.
if you find me, hide me, i don’t know where I’ve been.

are we breathing, are we breathing, are we wasting our breath.
it won’t be enough to be rich.
rather give the world away than wake up lonely,
everywhere in every way i see you with me.
all the babies tucked away in their beds,
we’re out here screaming, “the life that you thought through is gone!”
can’t wind down, the ending outlasting the move. i wake up lonely.

crowd surf off a cliff, land out on the ice.
crowd surf off to sea, float toward the beach.
if you find me, hide me, i don’t know where i’ve been.
when you phone me tell me everything i did.
if i’m sorry you lost me you’d better make it quick
‘cause this call costs late where you live, it’s late where you live.

clar·i·ty – noun
clearness or lucidity as to perception or understanding; freedom from indistinctness or ambiguity.

when will i find this?

and i cannot stop shaking because you cannot stop shaking
and these chords they are trembling because your words they are bleeding
and these holes in my hands are for you, just for you
she called out to her maker to now be her savior
my love, these holes in my hands are for you, just for you

i have a crush on this man. *swoons*

whatsoever i’ve feared has
come to life
whatsoever i’ve fought off
became my life
just when everyday
seemed to greet
me with a smile
sunspots have faded
and now i’m doing time
cause i fell on
black days

whomsoever i’ve cured
i’ve sickened now
whomsoever i’ve cradled
i’ve put you down
i’m a search light soul
they say but i can’t
see it in the night
i’m only faking
when i get it right
cause i fell on
black days
how would i know
that this could be my fate

so what you wanted to
see good has made you blind
and what you wanted to
be yours has made it
mine
so don’t you lock up
something that you
wanted to see fly
hands are for shaking
no not tying

i sure don’t
mind a change
but i fell on black
days
how would i know
that this could be
my fate

i had a great weekend spending time with my friends and family. on saturday we had a lot of our friends over for a cookout. we don’t normally have parties, so it was fun and i think most everyone had a good time. on sunday we hung out. we took ella to the state park after dinner and she loved it. she’s so fun to watch. today we went for a nice long ride and out to lunch. i love relaxing weekends. we need more of them!

BEST. ALBUM. EVERRRRRRRRRRRRRR. i love this band more than words can say.
