This glass house is burnin’ down

I’v got a bad headache and I shouldn’t even be on this thing. The yarbook isn’t close to finished and the guy who tried to lay it out did a horrible job.

I found my old Taking Back Sunday cds and can’t stop listening. Go listen to “Slowdance on the inside“, it’s great - especially the ending. Apparently we have limos now but I have no clue on what’s going on. I don’t really care but I think the room spinning around me isn’t helping.

ETA: The new Coldplay song “Talk” is great.

So I got linked on the MBLOG, thanks Matt.

Onto more serious matters, yesterday was the memorial ceremony for the four murdered RCMP officers in Alberta. My heart’s out to them and their loved ones. May they rest in peace.

It’s kind of disconcerting how everything’s been lately. A man was killed for $12 worth of gas in my province. The murderer was a 16 year old boy. He was drunk but that shouldn’t matter, he could hear the poor man underneath his car.

Here’s for a calm to the storm. Cheers.

Coldplay - Talk

Under the great North star
Trying to work out where you are
In the silence of the sea
I don’t know where I’ll be

In the future, in the past
Going nowhere, much too fast
When I go there, go with me
When I go there, go with me

Cause I don’t know where I’m going when I wanna talk
I feel like I’m going where I’ve been before
And I wanna talk

Take a picture of
Something that you’re not sure of
Bring it back to show to me
But I don’t know what I see

In the future, find a home
Getting nowhere on your own
Got to find your missing piece

Cause you don’t know were you’re going and you wanna talk
You feel like you’re going where you’ve been before
Nothing’s really making any sense at all
You tell anyone who’ll listen but you feel ignored

Let’s talk
Let’s talk
Do you wanna talk

I’m ??? flow
I’m trying to send a sign
In a language I don’t speak

I tried but I can’t get through
I’m trying to get to you
But you’re difficult to reach
Won’t you talk to me

So you don’t know were you’re going and you wanna talk
You feel like you’re going where you’ve been before
Let’s talk
Let’s talk
