Day Old Hate

So let's face it this was never what you wanted

But I know it's fun to pretend

Now blank stares and empty threats

Are all I have, they're all I have.

So drown me and if you can

Or we could just have conversation.

And I fall, I fall, I falter

But I'll find you before I drift away

Now you still speak of day old hate

Though your whole world has gone up into flames

And isn't it great to find that you're really worth nothing

And how safe it is to feel safe.

So drown me and if you can

Or we could just have conversation.

And I fall, I fall, I falter

But I'll find you before I drift away

The things we do just to stay alive

The things we do just to stay alive

The things we do just to stay alive

The things we do just to keep ourselves alive.

White Noise

Today, every little thing I hear is white noise.

The constant background noise, the frequency drowns when it reaches my ear.

The heterogeneous mixture of sound waves are being ignored.

The meaningless chatter

The distracting mutter

Bring me a platter

Before the white noise splatters.

So exhausted that I disregard my purpose of being a human

So exhausted that I neglect my own needs

So exhausted that I overlook tasks datelines

So exhausted that I forget to pee~!

I need a vacation, pronto.

Dearest Anna,

One day we were talking about it

Talking about it under the moon and the stars

One day we were talking about it

Talking about the birds and the bees and ... Mars?

One day we were talking about it

Talking about Mr Right

One day we were talking about it

Talking about marrying Mr Right

When will it be?

How will it be?

What will it be?

How old would we be?

(After a few years passed...)

The next day I received THE news

THE news that lights up the sky

The next day I received your invitation

An invitation that was written in ... Thai? LOL

The wait, the anxiety, the curiosity

It will never end

6 months in and you still look like you're 16!

6 months in and I am still envious of you

6 months in and you still look amazing as ever

6 months in and I am still proud of you

Congratulations on your 25th birthday

A quarter of a century, you have made it!

Congratulations on your journey thus far

You will be a great mother, I have no doubt.

Sine cera,

Joshua Radin - The Fear You Won't Fall

Digging a hole and the walls are caving in

Behind me air's getting thin but I'm trying

I'm breathing in

Come find me

It hasn't felt like this before

It hasn't felt like home before you

And I know it's easy to say but it's harder to feel

This way

And I miss you more than I should

Than I thought I could

Can't get my mind off of you

I know you're scared that I'll soon be over it

That's part of it all

Part of the beauty of falling in love with you is the fear you won't fall

It hasn't felt like this before

It hasn't felt like home before you

And I know it's easy to say but it's harder to feel

This way

And I miss you more than I should than I thought I could

Can't get my mind off of you

And I hate the phone

But I wish you'd call

Thought being alone

Was better than was better than

And I know it's easy to say but it's harder to feel this way

And I miss you more than I should

Than I thought I could

Can't get my mind off of you

Can't get my mind off of you

And I know it's easy to say but it's harder to feel

This way

And I miss you more than I should

Than I thought I could

Can't get my mind off of you

Look Into My Eyes
