Stalled
0I never thought that life would turn into a fight
Clenched fists to shake a hand
It’s bliss or understand
Swimming through sacred tears
Open me up with fear
Too poor to live in peace
Too broken in this disease
Intoxicated I…
And medicated I…
Intoxicated I…
And medicated
We’re living in this hollowed existence
Giving to your sorrow’s persistence
Absent to the lives that we hold
Dumb to the anguish we stole
We’re angels without our wings
Possess me through your sting
Cause I am nothing now
Your failure tears me down
Losing used to seem like a nightmarish dream
Never real or a choice
Until I heard your voice
Bathing in all my fears
Hating, withholding tears
Won’t look while you inject
Your poison in my neck
Intoxicated I…
And medicated I…
Intoxicated I…
And medicated
We’re living in this hollowed existence
Giving to your sorrow’s persistence
Absent to the lives that we hold
Dumb to the anguish we stole
We’re angels without our wings
Possess me through your sting
Cause I am nothing now
Your failure tears me down

I never through that life would turn into a fight
My engine’s running dry
Now watch this angel die
Intoxicated I…
And medicated I…
Intoxicated I…
And medicated
We’re living in this hollowed existence
Giving to your sorrow’s persistence
Absent to the lives that we hold
Dumb to the anguish we stole
We’re angels without our wings
Possess me through your sting
Cause I am nothing now
Your failure tears me down

Notes: A Tool like rock song. I’m not 100% sure of what Tool sounds like since I’ve only ever heard a few of their songs, but it’s the closest thing I can compare to. God, I hate writing lyrics.
Another Record
1There’s either a lot of people who like me or a growing number of people who don’t. For the month of October 2006, we’ve all managed to set a new record for the number of unique visitors (that’s a count of how many different IP addresses visited the site). The previous record? 1759 visitors. The new? A whopping 38% improvement totaling 2428 unique hits.
One trend I did notice, though, is that people are only coming to the front page and not delving any deeper. While unique visitors were up, page views were considerably disproportioned compared to the numbers from the past year. I really do want people to spend time here and read more than the front page. I’m not sure how to accomplish that on a blog and I don’t want to have content that doesn’t appear on the front page, so I’m caught in a bind. If you have any ideas, let me know. While I want this site to remain about my life, regardless of how some people denounce the idea, I always do try to mix in some unrelated content I think people may found interesting. Need more or less of something? Let me know that, too.
Thanks boys and girls. I like/don’t like you too, unless your a girl named Maria who really screws with me. Then I like AND dislike you, too. Damn her….
