Lyrics, and reasons you shouldn't judge me for putting them on my blog.

Jimmy Eat World. I feel a lot of the time that Jimmy Eat World have a song that describes how I'm feeling. Like the song I'm gonna put up. I don't think you should assume it describes how I feel at the moment, 'cos that would be revealing stuff about my personal life, and that would just leave me looking stupid/embarrased and you feeling bored.

Just accept that whether or not it's how I feel at the moment, I have felt like it at some point in my life, maybe when I was a little less mature, and understood a little bit less about how I percieve the world, and how I am percieved.

I mean, I don't empathise with all of it. I don't know who Heatmiser are, for example, and it's a little bit melodramatic for how I have felt in the past. Some of it is relevant though, I think. But I dunno, I think the music actually makes it better. It's a great song, and if you don't like/know it, then you should.

It's called "Kill":

You're just across the street
Looks a mile to my feet
I want to go to you
Funny how I'm nervous still
I've always been the easy kill
I guess I always will

Could it be that everything goes around by chance
Or only one way that it was always meant to be
You kill me
You always know the perfect thing to say
I know what I should do but I just can't walk away

I can picture your face well
From the bar in my hotel
I wish I'd go to you
I pick up, put down the phone
Like your favorite Heatmiser song goes:
'It's just like being alone...'

Oh God, please don't tell me this has been in vain
I need answers for what all the waiting I've done means
You kill me
You've got some nerve but can't face your mistakes
I know what I should do but I just can't turn away

So go on, love
Leave while there's still hope for escape
Got to take what you can these days
There's so much ahead
And so much regret
I know what you want to say
I know it but can't help feeling differently
I loved you
And I should have said it
But tell me
Just what has it ever meant

I can't help it baby
This is who I am
Sorry but I can't just go turn off how I feel
You kill me
You build me up but just to watch me break
I know what I should do but I just can't walk away

    That's who Heatmiser were. Nothing exciting tho.
