Some people put silly little icons on their blogs to tell you what kind of mood they're in. You've seen them, right? In case you haven't yet figured it out, I choose to put up lyrics or snippets from songs. I listen to a lot of music. I usually choose something to listen to that fits my mood. So...

i keep going round and round on the same old circuit
a wire travels underground to a vacant lot
where something i can't see interrupts the current
and shrinks the picture down to a tiny dot
and from behind the screen, it can look so perfect
but it's not

so here i'm sitting in my car at the same old stop light
i keep waiting for a change, but i don't know what
so red turns into green turning into yellow
but i'm just frozen here on the same old spot
and all i have to is press the pedal
but i'm not

no, i'm not

people are tricky, you can't afford to show
anything risky, anything they don't know
the moment you try
well, kiss it goodbye

so, baby kiss me like a drug, like a respirator
and let me fall into the dream of the astronaut
where i get lost in space that goes on forever
and you make all the rest just an afterthought
and i believe it's you who could make it better
though it's not
no, it's not
no, it's not
