how time flies by with these long nights on the rocks
how time flies when you're alone and jaded

will you make it alone when you discover yourself?
will you give it away to someone else?
and will they understand you're just a bundle of love?
you're just love and love lost

will they understand you are not a lost cause
and you are more than what was?
you're just a bundle of love
you're just love and love lost

so much love to give. so much baggage to carry it in.

with the autumnal winds blowing through my room, at a brisk 55 degrees i sit, hunched over my keyboard, writing in a feigned attempt to quiet my head...

and suddenly, i'm thrown back down memory lane by a simple comment, and hilarity ensues.

because, you know what? i know my calculus. it says u + me = us...

....

with that first sentence, i had such high hopes for a wave of inspiration to wash over me, swirl me about in its rip tide for a few moments, and cast me back onto the shores of my subconscious. instead, i get distracted by a simple comment from a fellow insomniac, and i spent the last 15 minutes watching horrendous videos like this one. i'm debating which was a more fruitful use of my time now....

i think i'll save the deep streams of subconscious thought for my neglected journals and one lucky ear. then again, which is luckier: the one ear who gets to hear every dream and fantasy that swirls through my head, or my mouth for having an understanding ear to divulge it all to?

the book of love is long and boring
no one can lift the damned thing
it's full of charts and facts and figures
and instructions for dancing
but i, i love it when you read to me
and you, you could read me anything

the book of love has music in it
in fact thats where music comes from
some of it is just transcendental
some of it is just really dumb
but i, i love it when you sing to me
and you, you could sing me anything

the book of love is long and boring
and written very long ago
it's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
and things we're all too young to know
but i, i love it when you give me things
and you, you oughta give me wedding rings

[originally done by peter gabriel, but mike doughty's version is so much more heartfelt. sorrowful, and beautiful (to me anyway). love this song.]
