SONG OF NOW

I woke up with the power out,
not really something to shout about.
Ice has covered up my parents hands
don’t have any dreams don’t have any plans.

I went out into the night,
I went out to find some light.
Kids are swingin’ from the power lines,
nobody’s home, so nobody minds.

I woke up on the darkest night,
neighbors all were shoutin’ that they found the light.
(”We found the light”)
Shadows jumpin’ all over my walls
some of them big, some of them small.

I went out into the night.
I went out to pick a fight with anyone.
Light a candle for the kids,
Jesus Christ don’t keep it hid!

Ice has covered up my parents hands
don’t have any dreams don’t have any plans.
Growin’ up in some strange storm,
nobody’s cold, nobody’s warm.

I went out into the night,
I went out to find some light.
Kids are dyin’ out in the snow,
look at them go, look at them go!

And the power’s out in the heart of man,
take it from your heart put in your hand.

What’s the plan?

Is it a dream? Is it a lie?
I think I’ll let you decide.
Just light a candle for the kids,
Jesus Christ don’t keep it hid!

Cause nothin’s hid, from us kids!
You ain’t foolin’ nobody with the lights out!

And the power’s out in the heart of man,
take it from your heart put in your hand.
And there’s something wrong in the heart of man,
you take it from your heart and put it in your hand!

Where’d you go?


~ The Arcade Fire, Neighborhood #3 (Power Out)
 
 
INDIFFERENCE!

Meh.

- Um. Hm. Wot to talk about? Nothing interesting in school... same 'ol same'ol. Nothing exciting.

- I need comm. service...

- *needs pictures of people* I feel like making charicatures of anyone who wants one. Just to sketch out different stuffs than random animeish people. SUBMIT TO ME.

That's about it. NEED SOMETHING INTERESTING TO HAPPEN.

SONG OF NOW

Ice age, heat wave, can't complain
If the world's at large why should i remain
Walked away to another plane
Gonna find another place, maybe one i can stand
i move on to another day
to a whole new town with a whole new way
went to the porch to have a thought
got to the door, and again i couldn't stop
you don't know where and you don't know when
but you've still got your words and you've got your friends
walk along to another day
work a little harder, work another way
well uh-uh, baby, i ain't got no plan
well i'll float on, maybe would you understand
gonna float on, maybe would you understand
well i'll float on, maybe would you understand
the days get shorter and the nights get cold
i like the autumn but this place is getting old
i pack up my belongings and i head for the coast
it might not be a lot but i feel like i'm making the most
the days get longer and the nights smell green
i guess it's not surprising but it's spring and i should leave
i like songs about drifters, books about the same
they both seem to make me feel a little less insane
walked on off to another spot
i still haven't gotten anywhere that i want
did i want love, did i need to know
why does it always feel like i'm caught in an undertow
the moths beat themselves to death against the lights
adding their breeze to the summer nights
outside, water like air was great
i didn't know what i had that day
walk a little farther to another plan
you said that you did but you didn't understand
i know that starting over is not what life's about
but my thoughts were so loud i couldn't hear my mouth
my thoughts were so loud i couldn't hear my mouth
my thoughts were so loud
I know that starting over's not what life's about
But my thoughts were so loud I couldn't hear my mouth
My thoughts were so loud I couldn't hear my mouth
My thoughts were so loud

BLOCK

Artist's block.

Writer's block.

LIFE block.

My life has basically withered itself down to videogames and homework... ugh. I need something new. Or I need to dig myself out of the rut I'm in. Either one.

DEPRESSION

*clicks around college websites*

Having no idea what you want to major in or what to do with life after high school really is quite depressing...

I hate the future.

DONUT HANGOVER

Yes, it is possible.

- Okay, um, prom. To be totally simple, the dinner was awesome, prom was okay, and bowling at 1 in the morning while hyped up on Krispy Kreme is something everyone should experience once in their life.
Dinner was pretty quiet, until Marc spilled the water like 5 minutes into it, and then we were the loudest table there. And damn proud of it. Food was great and if we ever have a table that large with people as crazy as us, we must hold more Rock-Paper-Scissors/Telephone/Thumb War tourneys.
Prom... eh. The band rocked pretty hard playing-wise, but their singing could use improvement. Though that bass dude was... godly. GODLY I SAY. THAT GLOVE HE HAD MUST HAVE HAD INSANE BASS PLAYING ABILITIES. I must have it... Yeah, the band was cool, but the choices of music weren't. Maroon 5? Yes. But a GOOD Maroon 5 song. And they must actually know the words instead of sending Teneshia up there to sing... eehf. And yeah, dancing was almost null for me.
THEN WE WENT FOR KRISPY KREME.
AND THE NIGHT REACHED A NEW HIGH.
I had like... 6 or something, I lost count, and I couldn't go to sleep till 'round 4. Hyped up. Like a jillon bowls of liquid Cap'n Crunch being pumped into your bloodstream. But beh. Yeah. Marc and Lauren and Kai-ou and I hopped in the Mini and sped off into the night, with only one goal: to bring back the ultimate conquest, the delightfully deliciously delicacies known as Krispy Kreme donuts. Ahh. And then we went bowling. And I won my game. Yey.
Fun.

- MORE RECOMENDED LISTENINGS.


~ The Black Mages, The Black Mages & The Black Mages II: The Skies Above
GODS OF VIDEO GAME MUSIC REMIXING. Take the greatest Final Fantasy music, mix it with synth-rockers, and just let it loose to the populous. And let Nobuo Uematsu compose the remixes too. Normally dont like synthesizers with my rock, but A) its nessecary for some of the rediculous parts, and B) it goes pretty well. And some of the exceptional tracks (Those Who Fight Further, Clash on the Big Bridge, Zeromus, Hunter's Chance) are bliss to us gamer geeks.
Awesomeness Factor: Highly Recommended


~ Various Composers, Project Majestic Mix - SQUAREDANCE
And another present for VG music fanatics... SQUAREDANCE does basically the same thing as The Black Mages, except replace "Final Fantasy music" with "Squaresoft music in general", and replace "synth-rockers" with "techno." Yeah. Don't normally like techno, but this is just interesting. Some of the remixes stay true to the original tracks, while others just go way, way, WAY off. But it's all good.
Awesomeness Factor: Recommended


~ Modest Mouse, The Moon & Antarctica
More indie rock from Modest Mouse. Rediculously moody. Frightingly morbid. Amazingly addictive. Catchy (yet creepy) lyrics? Check. Awesome guitar riffs and drums? Check. Diversity in songs? Check. Woot.
Awesomeness Factor: Listen First, Then Buy


~ Maroon 5, Songs About Jane
Forgot this on the last recommended listenings... songs to listen to no matter what your mood is. Pleasent lyrics along with masterful playing shall take you away... and I'd say more, but I'm tired as hell now. XD JUST LISTEN TO IT DAMMIT.
Awesomeness Factor: Highly Recommended

*Krispy Kreme power running low*

SONG OF NOW

I feel like I wanna smack somebody
Turn around and bitch slap somebody (bitch)
But I ain't goin' out bro (no, no, no)
I ain't givin' into it (no, no, no)
Anxieties bashing my mind in
Terrorizing my soul like Bin Laden
But I ain't fallin' down bro (no, no, no)
I won't lose control bro (no, no, no)
Shackle and chained
My soul feels stained
I can't explain got an ich on my brain
Lately my whole aim is to maintain
And regain control of my mainframe
My bloods boiling its beatin' out propane
My train of thoughts more like a runaway train
I'm in a fast car drivin' in a fast lane
In the rain and I might just hydroplaine

I don't fear none of my enemies
And I don't fear bullets from Uzis
I've been dealing with something thats worse than these
That'll make you fall to your knees and thats the
The anxiety the sane and the insane rivalry
Paranoia brought me to my knees
Lord please please please
Take away my anxiety
The sane and the insane rivalry
Paranoias brought me to my knees
Lord please please please
Take away my anxiety

My head keeps running away my brother
The only thing making me stay my brother
But I won't give into it bro (no, no, no)
Gotta get myself back now
God, I can't let my mind be
Tell my enemy is my own
Gots to find my inner wealth
Gots to hold up my thoughts
I can't get caught (no, no, no)
I can't give into it now (no, no, no)
Emotions are trapped set on lock
Got my brain stuck goin through the motions
Only I know what's up
I'm filled up with pain
Tryin' to gain my sanity
Everywhere I turn its a dead end infront of me
With nowhere to go gotta shake this anxiety
Got me feelin' strange paranoia took over me
And its weighin' me down
And I can't run any longer, yo
Knees to the ground

I don't fear none of my enemies
And I don't fear bullets from Uzis
I've been dealing with something thats worse than these
That'll make you fall to your knees and thats the
The anxiety the sane and the insane rivalry
Paranoias brought me to my knees
Lord please please please
Take away my anxiety
The sane and the insane rivalry
Paranoias brought me to my knees
Lord please please please
Take away my anxiety

I don't fear none of my enemies
And I don't fear bullets from Uzis
I've been dealing with something thats worse than these
That'll make you fall to your knees and thats the
The anxiety the sane and the insane rivalry
Paranoias brought me to my knees
Lord please please please
Take away my anxiety
The sane and the insane rivalry
Paranoias brought me to my knees
Lord please please please
Take away my anxiety


~ Black Eyed Peas, Anxiety

Location: Raleigh, North Carolina, United States

I'm that nice black dude who is friends with everyone, who dresses in Roca Wear and Nike, yet lives in the richest-assed neighborhood ever, that listens to things varying from Coltrane to Modest Mouse to DJ Taka, and who is both emo and cheerful at the same time. In short, I'm just plain crazy.
