Intersoul Highway

In love with tragedy

Burning in the corner is the only one
Who dreams he had you with him
My body turns and yearns for a sleep
That won't ever come
It's never over,
My kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
It's never over,
all my riches for her smiles when I slept so soft against her...
It's never over,
All my blood for the sweetness of her laughter...
It's never over,
She's a tear that hangs inside my soul forever...

But maybe I'm just too young to keep good love
From going wrong
Oh... lover you should've come over...

(Jeff Buckley - "Lover, You Should've Come Over")

I find myself drowning myself in this kind of crap at times like these.

Why does it seem that your average person is absolutely in love with tragedy and misery. We tend to avoid it, but when it comes to us we do not simply turn our backs on it. We embrace it. We nurture it while we believe it nurtures us.

I miss the comfort in being sad.

(Nirvana - "Frances Farmer Will Have Her Revenge On Seattle")

Eventually, in the deeper depths of gloom and misery do we realize it was not aiding us. We are no longer in control. And there is nothing to embrace or hold.

The only thing left is to turn to God. Usually, that will help more than anything...

She’ll always be what I can’t find
She’ll always be where I break down
She’ll always hide behind a star
I’ll always dream she can’t be far

(Failure - "Another Space Song")

...but, at this point, the person is [self-] programmed to keep delving into the pain hoping for a way out. But as we know, one who dives into the sea can only find air going one way - back up.

My scope is completely diminished.
I don't even pray for myself.

I hope someone will pray for me, but I think it would be ridiculous to ask for it since I don't even do so myself.

Hmmm...did I just ask for it? Oh, what a sly devil I am!

P.S. - I suggest checking out those songs if you listen to music.
