Keeping Out of Direct Sunlight

We are the ones with the radiating eyes. We are the Ones who have a fire inside. We are the ones only we can recognize. We've been rejected (we've been rejected)- Suffered the ignorance, suffered the selfishness, been pushed so far down now comes our time to surface. Turn from the light, that made them all go blind. We've been protected (we've been protected) ALL ARISE TO WHAT WE BRING,OUTSTRETCHED HANDS, UNFOLDED WINGS. We've hurt ourselves, and I feel the sting of broken hearts and burning wings...

Ah this is a sad day. I ran out of oreos. If that damn post would have worked yesterday, you would have read about my lovely oreos but no it didn't work so I will have to repeat my cool randomness in this post but it will never be the same. Um after my ramble about food and oreos I think I talk talked about my epiphany.
~~~
Okay that was stopped 'cos Mike came over so here I'll continue. So this epiphany I had. No not a Christian feast celebrating the manifestation of the divine nature of Jesus to the Gentiles as represented by the Magi. And not a revelatory manifestation of a divine being, either. Loser who would think those. I mean epiphany as in a comprehension or perception of reality by means of a sudden intuitive realization, durr. Ah that's sad that I know the different meanings...oh ok so story. So I was sitting in first and I look over at Lauren to see her eating a granola bar and I think, "Yum granola bar...I love granola bars." You know, normal Alicia thoughts. Yes my epiphany has to do with granola bars, deal with it. So anyways because I'm weird, a Jade quote popped in my head. On his favorite food, "It used to be chicken and granola bars once upon a time but, now that I'm vegetarian, it's just chicken." And this is where the epiphany comes, I have so much in common with Jade. We both love chicken, granola bars, and gatoraide...I had a gatoraide last night. That's kinda freaky...well I thought so! Don't look at me that way. Fine. My hair is gray and purple...

You could slit my thoat and with my one last gasping breath, I'd apologize for bleeding on your shirt.

Oh, you look so tired
Mouth slack and wide I
ll-housed and ill-advised
Your face is as clean
As your life has been, so

Crash into my arms
I want you
You don't agree
But you don't refuse
I know you

And I know a place
Where no one is likely to pass
You don't care if it's late
And, you don't care if you're lost

And oh, you look so tired
But tonight you presume too much
Too much, too much
And if it's the last thing I ever do
I’m gonna get you

Crash into my arms
I want you
You don't agree
But you don't refuse
I know you[2x]

Beautiful song. Like really, Davey's voice sounds amazing. You can feel the want and obsession in his voice. The song has so much feeling. If I was gonna tell someone who had never heard AFI before, this would be one of the songs, I'd want them to hear. So very pretty, ah his voice has so much power.


On The Arrow by AFI
He said, "Who truly belongs here?"
Not I she said, I'll lie here with you
He knows no one shines forever
They change with the weather

He said, "I've now stayed too long here"
Good bye she said, I'll wait here for you
He knows the winds carry sorrow
As the leaves should follow
They leave tomorrow

Fragments of joy torn apart
A freshly drained heart that beats
Disguise themselves through him
He'll say that it's nothing new
And swear this is true,for you,
I'll swallow the ocean

I'll swallow the ocean

He said, "Who truly belongs here?"
Not I she said, I'll lie here to you
I know the sorrow is sacred
And I'll never break you
I'll softly save you

Fragments of joy torn apart
A freshly drained heart that beats
Disguise themselves through him
He'll say that it's nothing new
And swear this is true,for you,
I'll swallow the ocean
I'll swallow the ocean

Now this song is another song I would say to listen to. Wow now this one has a lot of power too. It almost made me cry, actually the first time I was making this post, I got a horrible call and this song is the song I listened to 15 times in a row and just cried to it. Well anyways, this is a beautiful song, you can hear the love in his voice. Such passion, its amazing. I can't get over how beautiful it is. Well just hear it yourself and you'll see. So you wanna know about the call? Well I did have it in the other post so I'll say it hear but I am not going to do what I did last time...Well I got a call saying my grandpa is sick. His heart and lung is filling with fluid. Yeah I was crying my heart out and by the end of the post I was cursing the heavens and wishing I could switch my life for his. He took me in. I love him so much. I don't want him to go. You don't understand! And I'm crying now. This is exactly what I didn't want to do. I'm going on the same track as I did last time. I just don't see what I did to the universe to deserve all this. If I still believed, God says he would never give you more than you can handle. I don't think I can handle this. Why? Just why? I understand the world is full of pain but why me? Why can't it be a little more even? Just bite my lip and suck out my blood.
