Fall Out Boy~ The (Shipped) Gold Standard~ Folie a Deux

Sometimes I wanna quit this all and become an accountant now
But I'm no good at math and besides the dollar is down
Plant palm trees on Lake Michigan before it gets cold
I gotta feel the wind chill again before I get old

I wanna scream 'I love you' from the top of my lungs
But I'm afraid that someone else will hear me

You can only blame your problems on the world for so long
Before it all becomes the same old song
As soon as we hit the hospital I know we're gonna leave this town
And get new passports and get get get get get out now

All the Yes men said 'no comment'
My mouth got going the wrong way and all the calls started snowing
The time my dad caught me a horse shoe crab
And I asked him if throwing it back into the sea would bring our luck back

I wanna scream 'I love you' from the top of my lungs
But I'm afraid that someone else will hear me

You can only blame your problems on the world for so long
Before it all becomes the same old song
As soon as we hit the hospital I know we're gonna leave this town
And get new passports, get out now

Tell that boy I'll leave you alone now
Like a stove, I'll turn my love down
Supra and the prophet are both in the business of souls

I wanna scream 'I love you' from the top of my lungs
But I'm afraid that someone else will hear me
I wanna scream 'I love you' from the top of my lungs
But I'm afraid that someone else will hear me

You can only blame your problems on the world for so long
Before it all becomes the same old song
As soon as we hit the hospital I know we're gonna leave this town
(know we're gonna leave this town)
And get new passports and get get get get get out,
Get get get get get out now!

  • November 11, 2009, In Pain.  400 words. All. 0 comments.
    I'm struggling. In every sense of the word. In every aspect of my life. It's so nerve wracking, waking everyday and wondering what's going to happen next. I feel like a time bomb sometimes, everyday, another obstacle to overcome and another piece of me being put to the test. I often wonder if I'm going to make it to see the rest of my life. I'm nervous all the time and scared and angry. But I don't want to talk about any of it, because if I do, I fear I might just fall to pieces and I may not...

    It's another Saturday night and I am left to be my own worst enemy. And as I post this entry, I am crying . And it's possibly because of the song I'm listening to because the singer's voice evokes this response from me. Don't get me wrong, I am in love with the voice and I appreciate their work. It just pisses me off that I'm feeling like I do. It's like everytime I think I'm doing so well, something inside of me won't let me be happy. And then it's another 20 rounds of wondering what the hel...

    I've been rather angsty the past few days. And to think it all started going down to Columbia, MO to visit my cousins who I hadn't seen in a long time. They graduated and I stayed with them for the weekend to hang out, go clubbing and just all around have some fun.
    Saturday night, we ran into an old friend and we all chatted away about what had been happening for the last 4 years since we'd last seen one another. The subject of my ex fiance came up and I asked him to drop the subject. I ...
