any of you who happen to follow my twitter feed know i'm a little nuts for song lyrics; anything on there that's wrapped in quotes came to me through my headphones, and i have my headphones in all day long (one of the perks of staring at a computer screen for a living).
as such, i'm very occasionally inspired to eek out a line or two of my own creation. not enough to form a whole song, mind you, or even a complete thought for that matter. and rhyme structure? you should be so lucky. maybe one day i'll take 'em all and compile them into something . . . complete? maybe i won't quit my day gig.
don't read too much into 'em, they're not about you. probably.
also, be gentle.
- I may have love and lost you, but now I can stop pretending to like you
- i forgot i was supposed to care about you, you're not here to remind me
- Would you rather miss my call? Or would you forever wait for it? Do I risk dial tone? Or do I never bother making it?
- i'm so terrified of goodbye, we've yet to even say hello
- i can't stand to say goodbye, even if 'goodbye' goes unspoken
and a couple i've been brave enough to tweet:
- i can't stop this nervous shake in my leg, is it your face on my screen? or the latte coursing through my veins?
- I feel closer to the earth when I'm face down on the floor
