I can't even slow this down, let alone stop this.

I've had this song in my head since late Saturday night/early Sunday morning. It's no shocker why, that's for sure. Heck, I would bold the most pertinent parts and I'd be bolding the whole song.

p.s. My Smurf in Shining Armor made of Sculpey is on my computer desk now. My desk is knighteriffic and I /love/ it. :)

Ani DiFranco - Shameless

i cannot name this
i cannot explain this
and i really don't want to
just call me shameless
i can't even slow this down
let alone stop this
and i keep looking around
but i cannot top this

if i had any sense
i guess i'd fear this
i guess i'd keep it down
so no one would hear this
i guess i'd shut my mouth
and rethink a minute
but i can't shut it now
'cuz there's something in it

we're in a room without a door
and i am sure without a doubt
they're gonna wanna know
how we got in here
and they're gonna wanna know
how we plan to get out
we better have a good explanation
for all the fun that we had
'cuz they are coming for us, baby
they are going to be mad
they are going to be mad at us

this is my skeleton
this is the skin it's in
that is, according to light and gravity
i'll take off my disguise
the mask you met me in
'cuz i got something
for you to see
just gimme your skeleton
give me the skin it's in
yeah baby, this is you
according to me
i never avert my eyes
i never compromise
so nevermind the poetry

we're in a room without a door
and i am sure without a doubt
they're gonna wanna know how we got in here
and they're gonna wanna know how we plan to get out
we better have a good explanation
for all the fun that we had
'cuz they are coming for us, baby
they are going to be mad
they are going to be mad at us

i gotta cover my butt 'cuz i covet
another man's wife
i got to divide my emotions
between wrong and right
then i get to see how close i can get to it
without giving in
then i get to rub up against it
till i break the skin
rub up against it
till i break the skin

they're gonna be mad at us
they're gonna be mad at me and you
yeah, they're gonna be mad at us
and all the things we wanna do
they're gonna be mad at us
they're gonna be mad at me and you
they're gonna be mad at us
and all the things we like do

just please don't name this
please don't explain this
just blame it all on me
say i was shameless
say i couldn't slow it down
let alone stop it
and say you just hung around
'cuz you couldn't top it

Glad to see your posts again. =)

Hmmm....

Life happens sometimes. Doesn't it suck. We're all getting to be novice experts at that.

You do what you have to do.

Be strong. And beautiful.

Thanks, dollface.

I've missed you, too. And this comment of yours means more to me than you can probably imagine.

Thank you.
