Ok so I know we all can't be geniuses, but.... Wow! So I work for a computer company and I'm a sales consultant and I ask my customers needs based questions so I can steer them in the right direction. One question I asked was, "Can you tell me the size of your hard drive that was in your previous computer?" The reply I got was " Hold on let me get my tape measure. " Or "I'm looking for a laptop for laptopping" I had no idea laptop was a verb. It's just mind boggling sometimes that these answers come out of people's mouths and it's a serious answer too!!! And this is just my typical day at work!
Ok so this is my first real blog about random stuff, the other postings were just of my favorite pieces that I wrote. So I live in a two bedroom apt and in the complex there's a 200+ year old little cemetery. Now I don't know about seeing ghosts and stuff, I do believe to a point that they do exist, after all nothing is impossible. But my cats, especially Jasper, sees them I think. He runs up to the wall chasing nothing then he'll just stare at the ceiling totally immersed in fascination at whatever he's starting at. He'll just stare at the ceiling, the wall our just at nothing at all and he does this call which in cat language means either hello or follow me and he does that with no one in the room which is kinda creepy cuz he usually does that with either me or my fiancee in the room when he wants to hang with us. So I think we have some invisible guests and it's just plain weird to see my cat totally entertained by these invisible guests!
Sittin at the bus stop lying to himself They didn't really mean it they're just trying to help Years of being told that he'd never make it far He'll just add to his collection of emotional scars Sunglasses on, music blasting in his ears Keeps his head pointed down so they can't see the tears Looks at his ticket, his only way out From the hurt from the pain the unconditional doubt
He left them a letter, a piece of his mind In a place he knew it'd be easy to find They all looked at it finally figured it out Heard it loud and clear as it started to shout
O, Mother O, Father, is this what you brought me here for O, Father O, Mother, can't do this to me anymore Just wait right here, I'm getting dressed Wann look my best, gonna show off this mess Another cut, a wound and a stain I'm ready now, looking pretty in pain
Coming home from dinner, out the window she stares She keeps trying to talk to him but he really doesn't care He's yelling so loud it starts to hurt her ears Summons her strength and her courage to just stifle her tears Pulls up the to the house, she gets out of the car He grabs her back in, and he pulls her hard She looks at him can't believe just what he did All she's seeing is red so she lets him have it
All the things that's never been said So sick and tired of just feeling dead Her fists are clenched her lungs are ready She grabs his face screaming look at me!
Tonight it ends, I can't pretend, that what I'm feeling is alright I know you can't see what you're doing to me so I'll lead you to the light Just look right here, wear my heart on my sleeve Wanna see the truth, it'll set you free It used to be sunny till you brought in the rain And now because of you I look pretty in pain
He's doing what he wants he's living his dream Still can't believe that it's really happening He goes to the mailbox to send a postcard And on the back of it he wrote, I made it this far No phone calls from him no messages to read Ever since he's been gone it's been easier to breathe She starts to do something she's not done in a while She looks at her self and then she starts to smile
Today it begins, this brand new life Never looking back, never felt so alive I'm finally free, and you can't hurt me You're just one of those fading memories The tables have turned, everything has changed Now don't you look pretty, pretty in pain.
I pretend someday it'll end What are we fighting for Countless drills sharpens our skills Everytime we hit the floor Then one day out on patrol I met a man soon to be betrothed Not from my side but just like me Trying to get home to his family Sleepless night real men don't cry Don't wanna be alone anymore I'm sick and tired down to the wire Will somebody else fight this war Then they tell us that it's time to go This country's good they'll be fine on their own Pack up my things and wipe my eyes That's right baby I'm coming home tonight!
Walking the streets riddled with bullets Taking refuge from despair and fear Praying to God please help me through this There's just three words that I want to hear.
Please tell me baby indulge my heart Do those words remain the same from the very start Seven years is a long time to be apart But I need to hear it from you She said I Love You.
3000 miles to see your smile Can't wait to get off this plane It's been too long but now I'm back And it's never gonna be the same All the letters you wrote to me I've kept Telling me you love me as if I'd forget I wasn't with you by your bedside Still blew you two kisses before I slept. I remember the day they called my name You said baby just come back safe I was scared inside wiped the tears from your eyes I promised I'd be back one day Baby I'm coming back to you And you answered the door right on cue Our kisses lasted for a lifetime Don't worry baby I'm home this time!
Walking the streets riddled with bullets Taking refuge from despair and fear Praying to God please help me through this There's just three words that I want to hear.
Please tell me baby indulge my heart Do those words remain the same from the very start Seven years is a long time to be apart But I need to hear it from you She said I Love You.
Finally I'm at your bedside No need to blow you a kiss No more wishing that I'd be next to you Doesn't get better than this Now things are back to the way it should And I came back like I promised you I would I'll never leave you no not again I'm staying here with you until the end Still can't believe that I'm back home now It all just seems surreal Got this chance to do this right It's time to seal the deal I remember the day that I met you Fell into my arms out of the blue Now I'm asking down on one knee Please baby will you marry me?
Walking the aisle with a big full smile Because Our day is finally here And I thank God that we're both here today There's just Two words that I want to here
Yes I do take her to be My wife for all of eternity I turned to her as she was asked the same And she answered right on cue She said I Do
I wear this facial expression As my shield of protection I wear it loudly so they can't Hear my mind protestin' Against the angry mob of questions All fighting to get inside my mind Like some sort of inqusitive infection Just waiting for a breath of confession. Clawing and biting The fruits of their frustration But I walk around cloaked in this Oblivious Creation a twisted meditation Leaving them all stranded on an island Built by their own speculation. I weigh anchor as I sail away staring at them With eyes as blank as a virgin piece of paper In hopes of being in a place that could make Me safer and take me far away From the maddness of their caper.
Music, The only lving being that is ageless, nameless infamous yet famous. Often the scapegoat hardly the frameless but how can you blame us For writing these works of art sometimes tainted but remains stainless. We never run in circles yet you call us aimless or even brainless Yet if it we weren't around you'd be saying Who's gonna entertain us? We go against the grain of keeping the world the same We'd rather be who we were meant to be instead of Plain Jane Our music will never fold under the pressure of you like an Origami Crane We'll flood your ears saturate your souls like a Monsoon Rain And have you searching for cover like we were the Hurricane The harmonius satisfaction of our melodic education Lets us communicate in a musical conversation Setting free our minds from the confines of contemplation Through radio waves you'll hear us or see us on your Local tv station, you can't deny this beautiful creation. Presented to you by Us, the Musicians, Artists In every sense of the definition we are the blind man's vision. We capture the very heart and soul with pinpoint precision And make an incision to break you out of your narrow minded prison.
