Soundgarden - Burden in My Hand
Follow me into the desert
As thirsty as you are
Crack a smile and cut your mouth
And drown in alcohol
'Cause down below the truth is lying
Beneath the riverbed
So quench yourself and drink the water
That flows below her head
Oh no there she goes
Out in the sunshine the sun is mine
I shot my love today would you cry for me
I lost my head again would you lie for me
I left her in the sand just a burden in my hand
I lost my head again would you cry for me
Close your eyes and bow your head
I need a little sympathy
Cause fear is strong and love's for everyone
Who isn't me
So kill your health and kill yourself
And kill everything you love
And if you live you can fall to pieces
And suffer with my ghost
Just a burden in my hand
Just an anchor on my heart
Just a tumor in my head
And I'm in the dark
So follow me into the desert
As desperate as you are
Where the moon is glued to a picture of heaven
And all the little pigs have God
For some reason, I always find myself listening to this song. Granted that it is a great song, but it feels like there is something more to it...I mean, hell, I referenced this song a few times already in my journal and I always listen to when I feel the way I do at this moment (see previous entry if you missed it).
...
I blame finals. I know it is not the full deep down reason, but my stupidity just wants an easy fucking answer.
Update: Well I did find something that cheered me up today after writing this! Just don't click if you are a Macf Fanatic.

yay! we share a birthday and we share a brain! how awesome is that ?
what were you thinking of getting/where??
i was thinking dragons too!
i saw this awesome design in a tattoo mag once.
two dragons on my torso...one on the left, the other on the right. i wish i could find the magazine so i'd have it for a reference. but that'd be expensive. right now i'm looking for something smaller.
