The song of the day:

Weight of the World—Blue October

A blackout in the room again
a busted lip and broken skin.
I wake up in the bathroom
and dare not bother asking
why the mirror's cracked and all I see
are shards of glass inside of me.

There's voices there to dare me,
my father's here to scare me.
My mother sits beyond the door she's
curled up crying on the floor,
look at what her son's done.

When the weight of all the world's gone wrong.
It's gone wrong again.
Gone fucking wrong.
It's gone wrong again.

Well liars they leave a guilty trail.
And let me tell you something people,
I've been lying for fucking years.
That must be why I'm standing in this space.
Disregarding that I've created these monsters
they're on fucking both of my sides,
So I wipe the blood from both of their eyes.
From all four of their eyes.

And while I wait for wounds to heal
I see you by the window sill,
your heart's torn out
a plastic spoon
when honesty lit up that room
so I stole the pillowcase to clean
this mess I've made of someone’s dream.
Now you've seen what I've done,

when the weight of all the world's gone wrong.
It's gone wrong again
gone fucking wrong
it's gone all wrong again.

This room is old and wise
I fall onto the bed and wonder,
"How did I get here?"
The little boy who would argue with a tree
just fucking thump his head
and he'll turn back to normal.

Now why is that what I see?
Don't bother trusting
don't bother waiting
don't bother changing things that won't give into changing
just let me go away.
I'm packed
whenever
I'm down
whenever.
Let's go.
Yes, let's go.

I don't know what this video is all about, but you can hear the song at least. Just close your eyes and listen......

    ((hugs))

    I'm not feeling particularly wise today, but I can always swing a hug or just a friendly hand held out if you need one.

    Powerful lyrics.

    I like this song. Depressing as hell, but I like it. I hope that maybe your song of the day has changed by now.

    Maybe to something more upbeat? Like Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go by Wham? 

    Scratch that. That'd probably make you want to jump out a window. But think of a happier song that's not annoying and listen to that instead.

    Infernal, I really appreciate the offer of friendship. You're very nice. The lyrics are pretty powerful aren't they? Hearing him sing it just shows how much emotion he can put into a song too.

    Mr_Box, it is depressing as hell. I know. But sometimes that just fits. I'll have to pass on the Wham song though. I think that might put an end to me. But I feel alright now, so we'll see what happier songs I can think of now.
