Redemption Comes to those who wait..

"Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds"

I was driving myself to work today, listening to an awesome mix of music, Ive had and some new that was given to me by a friend.. Jolie Holland, is an awesome singer, two songs come to mind when I hear that name, "Faded Coat of blue" and "Crush in the Ghetto". I was driving down eastwood to my job when I saw a very overweight young lady. I see this girl everyday walking, looking like shes going to have a heart-attack.

So today whilst listening to "Crush In The Ghetto" I guess I was feeling good willed. I pulled over and asked he if she would like a ride. A huge smile came over her pudgey face. Apparently I went to school with her. I dropped her off in front of the Library where I work and departed. I was amazed at how a simple gesture like pulling over and helping someone can brighten not only your day, but the person in whom you are trying to help.

Well lately, life has been throwing me crazy ass curve balls. One in particular, but its nunya! You know nunya damn business! Wow its been so long since I've said that! Not like it matters, no one reads this dumb old blog anymore anyway. Maybe Jon checks everyonce and a while, but Im sure thats about it. But butterflies come to mind, I can't eat or sleep and as a matter of fact I can't do anything now without thinking about this person, whom for sake of posterity shall remain nameless. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining at all. The moments spent with these perfect example of a human being is awesome, every second of it. But sadly I must remain silent, because it isn't right to do so.. Even though it tears me up inside not to tell her, how i feel. Maybe she knows? In fact, I think she does.. Thats the thing, we are always so in tune its scary, but in a good way, nay a great way. So since we are so much alike, Im positive she knows..

Now I just sound like a crazy-person, if feeling this way is wrong, I don't want to be right! Ha! I've always wanted to say "Type" that, and not have it come off cheesey.. I've noticed however that Ive been writing more and more about this subject, in my blog on the old myspace, and in my journal at home. Yeah I still keep a journal, its not arcaic... yet.. even then I'll still do it!

Closer to Fine

I'm trying to tell you something about my life Maybe give me insight between black and white The best thing you've ever done for me Is to help me take my life less seriously, it's only life after all Well darkness has a hunger that's insatiable And lightness has a call that's hard to hear I wrap my fear around me like a blanket I sailed my ship of safety till I sank it, I'm crawling on your shore.

I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountain
There's more than one answer to these questions
pointing me in crooked line
The less I seek my source for some definitive
The closer I am to fine.

I went to see the doctor of philosophy
With a poster of Rasputin and a beard down to his knee
He never did marry or see a B-grade movie
He graded my performance, he said he could see through me
I spent four years prostrate to the higher mind, got my paper
And I was free.

I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountain
There's more than one answer to these questions
pointing me in crooked line
The less I seek my source for some definitive
The closer I am to fine.

I stopped by the bar at 3 a.m.
To seek solace in a bottle or possibly a friend
I woke up with a headache like my head against a board
Twice as cloudy as I'd been the night before
I went in seeking clarity.


I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountain
There's more than one answer to these questions
pointing me in crooked line
The less I seek my source for some definitive
The closer I am to fine.

I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains

We go to the bible, we go through the workout
We read up on revival and we stand up for the lookout
There's more than one answer to these questions
pointing me in a crooked line
The less I seek my source for some definitive
The closer I am to fine
The closer I am to fine
The closer I am to fine

Badfish

When you grab a hold of me Tell me that I'll never be set free I'm a parasite, creep and crawl I step into the night. Two pints of booze Tell me are you a badfish too? Are you a badfish too? Ain't got no money to spend I know the night will never end Lord knows I'm weak Won't somebody get me off of this reef


Baby your a big blue whale
Grab the reef when all duck diving fails
I swim but wish I never learned
The water's too polluted with germs
I dive deep when it's ten feet overhead
Grab the reef underneath my bed
Ain't got no quarrels with god Ain't got no time to grow old
Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off of this reef


Ain't got no quarrels with God Ain't got no time to grow old
Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off of this reef

Saving Lives.... Someone's gotta do it!

So I was wicked late to work today, I left on time as usual. Stopped off at Homerun heros to get a little grub. Im not sure of the time exactly, but while i was eating I heard a large Crash and the whole buidling rumbled! Reminded me of my earthquake encounter in cali, last time i was out. I quickly clicked into gear, running outside and low and behold a car on its side slammed into a telephone pole.

I could feel the heat from the flames already, althouht they were small and not out of control yet. I ran up to the car without thinking, and saw an individual knocked out, and a second in the passenger seat. I helped the driver out of the car quickly, while everyone watched , and did nothing! Thankfully we got everyone out safely and away from the car as it burned up! Thank god I had an extra work shirt in the car.. Blood stained shirts don't bowed well with the superiors here! Although they have to deal with my blood stained pants anyway.. Why does this shit happen to me?! I mean I would do it again if i have to.. But why do others stand aside and look on, while only I and one other sprung into action!? I mean I was standing on the side of this car, while it was burning.. Am I Nuts?! Or just a good person... anyway.. Like i said, id do it again.. Someone has to do it... I just hope my pops doesn't get mad about losing one of his dress shirts!

The Sounds of Silence

Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence

"Fools", said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words, like silent raindrops fell
And echoed
In the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls"
And whispered in the sounds of silence
