Shadows


I am the opposite of you
You battle your mean spirit
I'm suffering through my own
You answer to no one
I don’t know what that’s like
I honestly don’t know what that’s like

We quit making out to attend this meeting
With old ladies on tremendous amounts of coke
And reeling, I hear my bad voice call
My wayward brain reels
My easily distracted brain reels

Head full of
Climbing mercury
Climbing mercury
Climbing mercury
Climbing mercury

I am a complement to you
We park in the shade
And somehow equate that with dealing
I hope I don't stomp on your heart
I know what that's like
Believe me, I know what that's like

Head full of
Climbing mercury
Climbing mercury
Climbing mercury
Climbing mercury

Throwing Muses-Mercury


Throwing Muses has been a part of my life for over 17 years. I first encountered them at the age of 18. Throwing Muses have carried me through some of the happiest and saddest parts of my life. The reason I believe is I am a Loon and quite possibly a funny woman; many times these songs as well as Kristin Hersh's solo music make sense to me. They have a tendency to touch me and make me feel that maybe in this universe there are people that are just as crazy and loony as I.

Now I know why
You are the way you are
You’ll see the air
The tactful past

Which is more forgiving
Than these last moments

We are the last of your faithful, well, friends
We love the crash that accompanies epiphany

You don’t have low self esteem
You don’t have any self esteem at all

You float around, don’t touch the ground
What little confidence you had
Is melting away

We are the last of your faithful, well, friends
We love the crash that accompanies epiphany

I refuse to lose control
You do look handsome under wal-mart lights though...

Throwing Muses-Epiphany

The older I become the more I love the music.

Puurrrrrr
