This is my song of the day.
A toast to staying in control.

Rabbit Hole - Living Legends

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3JLy62yWpgE

Now if it's cool in moderation
I found a way to pace it
I made it more acceptable my life and I ace it
I'm faded on occasion an abrasion to the clean cut
Blend it with my normal way of life and now I seem stuck
Even when I'm not blue I'm focused and I thank you
For opening that part of my brain I couldn't break through
Even though it's illegal while consuming
I participate in dangerous activities I'm dooming
My future longevity heavenly prospect
I think I have a good heart, I'd say I had a late start
People in my family have fallen to addiction
It's a mission uncontrollable you can't take the friction

[Eligh]
It fits together like bricks stacked in an orderly fashion
When I'm building up my confidence
Surrounding my controlled habitat
Split in two
Which rabbits the lie
Which holds the key to free
My destiny survive
Survival of the fittest it's the medicine
The key to free the mind
Subliminal intricate tricks put upon my being
Since the birth of a sorcerer came under the Pisces sign
Alcoholic rushing, gushing like rivers of gold
Holding my breath with the fish, early death is not a wish
I'm not Bronson but it haunts my conscience on the constant
Soaking up my compliments, one hand in the wonderland
One hand in the contraband
Underwater chase the rabbit to its destination
One hand on the pipe, one for the blunt
One for the medicine, one hand on the bottle
One for the door so they can let us in
One hand for the glass, one hand for the ass
One for the pad and pen
One for the mic control
See the rabbit gentlemen

[Bicasso]
They set it up for us
Put me on a planet of people, use these plants of love
Put ‘em in they mouths and stuff
Tried it once to call a bluff and see the repercussions
Cuz the world is a petri dish, experimental hit and miss
And I'm a goldfish, underwater
Shake me some crystals that might change the color
Now look thru my lens, do you see how things are circular?
Pixilated pressure points directly when you hit the joint
Added it to what you had it stashed up in your liquor cabinet
Drank to wash down that sticky tablet
Stuck inside, you had to have it
Now go and get, cuz here it comes lifted
Euphoric brain liquid melt shifted felt good
Either you shouldn't or you should but you did
Either you shouldn't or you should so you did
This is a message for grown folks and kids
Who choose to chase the rabbit down these lives that we live

[Scarub]
The old lady gets upset when I touch the bottle
I promised I wouldn't touch the bottle minus special occasions
Yesterday she could tell I had a hang over
When asked what was the occasion I said because I could afford it
I was a shame how short the time was since my previous buzz
Didn't want to think about it, tried to swallow it all,
But that would only leave things unsettled causing nerves to shake
Like upset stomachs, avalanches and earthquakes
Not an uncommon occurrence but still hard to digest
The older I get the harder it is to fight
These addictive aggressive gravesites weighing me down
Squinting my eyes, gritting my teeth in disbelief
Or becoming what I always learned to hate
And some of us won't stop until we see with our own eyes
The self destruction, the coughing up of blood caught in the throat,
Infectious phlegm I'm trying to tell y'all
I know shit like this will be our down fall
If not the actual sickness then the mind state that we're in
Seeing is believing
But at time, what is seen is a sign of it being too late
A sign of it being too late

[The Grouch]
Now I've been to the depths of the steps of that other place
Turned back and learned that here is where I love to race
When in the face of reality I kiss it
If I fuck off relations, know that I'm gonna miss it
Visit with it, live it, give it all of Grouch,
Unzip it like a pouch and let it all hang out
As if no one was watching, I ain't botching up the job
God, never that, help me with a better act
Knack embedded, I manipulate in any state
Weather sober or faded to where I can't see straight
I motivate, elevate, activate, tell it great, take it farther
Growin' larger on the daily off a chill pill
Although the thrill will call
Face it, life in this matrix is raw
Pace it, pace it y'all
 
Indeed it was! And indeed I agree. I'm hooked. My album of the minute.

And dayum. Try not to get yourself hurt, would ya?

I'm pretty tough. What's that phrase? Takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'...yeah, that's me.

Man, that sounds like something else entirely now that I think about it...

My song of the day?

Sail-AWOLNATION

I think that phrase always sounded dirty to me. Even when it wasn't supposed to.

On another note...

Love that song.
 
Your Arms Feel Like Home-Three Doors Down

I think i've walked too close to love
And now i'm falling in
Theres so many things this weary soul can't take
Maybe you just caught me by surprise
The first time that i looked into your eyes

There's a life inside of me
That i can feel again
It's the only thing that takes me
Where i've never been
I don't care if i lost everything that i have known
It don't matter where i lay my head tonight
Your arms feel like home
Feel like home

This life aint the fairy tale we both thought it would be
But i can see your smiling face as it's staring back at me
I know we both see these changes now
I know we both understand somehow

There's a life inside of me
That i can feel again
It's the only thing that takes me
Where i've never been
I don't care if i lost everything that i have known
It don't matter where i lay my head tonight
Your arms feel like home
They feel like home
(hold on, you're home to me)

There's a life inside of me
That i can feel again
It's the only thing that takes me
Where i've never been
I don't care if i lost everything that i have known
It don't matter where i lay my head tonight
Your arms feel like home
They feel like home
 
Sounds about right. Pervert. :p

Yeah, their other stuff didn't really catch me, but that one did.

Hey! I just now noticed that you'd called me a pervert!

Tehehehehe...

I like most of AWOLNATION's stuff. Sail is a fave. So is this one.

AWOLNATION - Not Your Fault lyrics

She was built with a brain
and some swagger.
A little scream, little cry,
little laughter.
She's a ten,
I'm a joke in my own mind.
But she still loves to dance
with my punch lines.

This love found us
now I see it.
This love up down.
Please believe.

Baby, when I'm yellin' at you,
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah and
Baby cuz I'm crazy for you,
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah
Maybe I'm a little confused,
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah and
Baby, it a wonderful news.
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah

Oh, it's not that you should care.
I just wanted you to know.

I'm a fight with myself
till I'm bleeding.
Just a taste of your skin
starts the healing.
Anyone from my past
get your ammo.
Find my sun in the dark side
of my shadow.

This love found us
now I see it.
This love up down.
Please believe.

Baby, when I'm yellin' at you,
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah and
Baby cuz I'm crazy for you,
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah
Maybe I'm a little confused,
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah and
Baby, it a wonderful news.
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah

Oh, it's not that you should care.
I just wanted you to know.

Hey, hey
na na na na
Hey, hey
na na na na
Hey, hey
na na na na
Hey, hey
na na na na
na na na na
na na na na

Oh, it's not that you should care.
I just wanted you
Oh, it's not that you should care.
I just wanted you to know.
Oh oh oh

Baby, when I'm yellin' at you,
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah and
Baby cuz I'm crazy for you,
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah
Maybe I'm a little confused,
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah and
Baby, it a wonderful news.
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah

Oh, it's not that you should care.
I just wanted you to know.
 
A little Postal Service for my morning...

The District Sleeps Alone Tonight

Smeared black ink... your palms are sweaty
And I'm barely listening to last demands
I'm staring at the asphalt wondering what's buried underneath
Where I am
Where I am

I'll wear my badge... a vinyl sticker with big block letters adherent to my chest
That tells your new friends I am a visitor here...
I am not permanent
And the only thing keeping me dry is
Where I am
Where I am
Where I am

You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with your door key explaining that I am just visiting
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving

D.C. sleeps alone tonight

Where I am
Where I am
Where I am

You seem so so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with your door key explaining that I am just visiting
And I am finally seing
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving

Where I am
Where I am
Where I am

The district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights
And send the autos swerving into the loneliest evening
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving​
 
We can fight our desires
But when we start making fires
We get ever so hot
Whether we like it or not
They say we can love who we trust
But what is love without lust?
Two hearts with accurate devotions
And what are feelings without emotions?

I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh I'm hoping you'll understand
And not let go of my hand

I hang my hopes out on the line
Will they be ready for you in time
If you leave them out too long
They'll be withered by the sun
Full stops and exclamation marks
My words stumble before I start
How far can you send emotions?
Can this bridge cross the ocean?

I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh I'm hoping you'll understand
And not let go of my hand

Let's go to war
To make peace
Let's be cold
To create heat
I hope in darkness
We can see
And you're not blinded by the light from me

I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh I'm hoping you'll understand
And not let go of my hand
 
Naked Eye by Luscious Jackson

wearing nothing is divine
naked is a state of mind
i take things off to clear my head
to say the things i haven't said
i live inside the elements
the earth and sky are my best friends
water is the evidence
that washes me from end to end

with my naked eye
i saw all the falling rain
coming down on me
with my naked eye
i saw all if i said it all
i could see

it's not a choice i tried to make
it's not a thought i couldn't take
something told me it was time
to give you yours and leave me mine
my vision started to be clear
i watched the sunlight coming near
i knew the day i knew the night
i knew i could regain my sight
and it feels alright

with my naked eye
i saw all the falling rain
coming down on me
with my naked eye
i saw all if i said it all
i could see

last night i came into your home
to break some ice and throw some stones
i asked if we could be alone
i had some troubles of my own
knew i had to say goodbye
to all the old things held inside
if i let the moment fly
i knew they'd all be magnified

and it feels alright

came around after dark
you are nothing but a lark
know i snuck in like a narc
i knew i had to leave my mark
wanted to be satisfied
i tried to be dignified
wearing nothing is divine
naked is a state of mind

and it feels alright


it feels alright
