Fight Me (11/28/2007)
Fight me, throw your words up to spite me
Light me up in kerosene, ignite me
It’s frightening for me to think what I might be
A little gasoline that’s wrapped up in lightning
And it might seem that I pick every single battle
Like my head is in the clouds, my brain’s a little rattled
Unconscious in the [...]

The Deftones song, “In the House of Flies”, is one of the more memorable singles from the band. At the show I went to, Breaking Benjamin invited Shaun (from Seether) and the guitarist from Three Days Grace to come on stage and perform the song with them. Shaun sang while Ben from BB walked through [...]

Remember when Papa Roach actually had their balls in place and made music that knocked you on your ass? I do. This is the video for “Last Resort”:

Tears In Our Hands (11//22/2007)
He sits with his hands pressed tight to his face
Tears giving chase and they’re mixed in disgrace
He hates all the change that will never take place
The road’s paved in shame, so bitter to taste
Misplaced and lost in those decisions he made
He knows they were right, but they’re far from okay
He holds [...]

Third Person View (11/21/2007)
Trudging through this consciousness, sometimes I pray for coma
A little break from anything until everything was over
Lifted off my shoulders, the freedom leaves me sober
Broken chains have fallen, growing warmer and not colder
But, sadly, I still know her and him and you and every one
The questions keep on building and construction is [...]

Weightless (11/17/2007)
Look at you, thinking that you’re getting beneath me
It’s easy, you think you’ll be the one to beat me
See me? I’m writing this all calm and breezy
Cause I don’t have a care, I’m not mad, I’m leaving
Sill wearing a smile as you keep with your stories
I’m an angry little man, I’m yawning, you’re boring
Keep [...]

Here’s my wishlist for Christmas. It’ll probably grow over time, but this is it for now. Just clothes, I know. I’m becoming a clothing whore. As usual, don’t even look at the list unless we’ve exchanged gifts in the past. I don’t need to do any more shopping.

Air For Your (11/10/2007)
You complain about your problems and you want the answers
But you only think about it when it’s done and after
In your blood’s a cancer that you try to cry away at night
It’ll stay inside until you do the things you say are right
I really want to say this right, but I want [...]

My brain is fried beyond belief. That’s why there hasn’t been any poems in a while.
Tis the season to get really freaking busy. Work is picking up due to the holiday season and it’s interesting to see how my role changes with the season. While in sales, nothing really changed about the holidays other than [...]

This is going to bug me unless I get it out, so here I am.
Today, while at work, an absolutely beautiful girl and her friend approached me for help finding a CD. Now, I know what you’re thinking: “But Chris, you never help customers anymore.” This is true, but I do make exceptions for pretty [...]
