I was discussing with Kav how much we used to love Stabbing Westward but how we realized upon more adult reflection how fucking trite their lyrics are... i figured I'd post this beaut of an example:


"You are all I am
you are all I ever want to be
I think of you
A solitary cry
echoes through my throat and through my mind
I think of you

I think I woke up screaming
I had a dream that you still loved me
I think I woke up screaming
I think I woke up screaming again

For hours I'll just stare
at my ceiling at nothing at all
and think of you
candlelight through bells
make shadows just like roses in my mind
and I think of you

I think I woke up screaming
I had a dream that you still loved me
I think I woke up screaming
I think I woke up screaming again

Could this last forever?
Or will I die?
Could this last forever?
Or will I die?
Just can I die?

Maybe I could try
to take a bath and drink a little wine
and think of you
But probably I'll lie
naked on the floor by candlelight
and I'll think of you

I think I woke up screaming
I had a dream that you still loved me
I think I woke up screaming
I think I woke up screaming again

I think I woke up screaming
I had a dream that you still loved me
I think I woke up screaming
I think I woke up screaming again

I think I woke up
I think I woke up
I think I woke up
I think I woke up

I think I woke up
I think I woke up
I think I woke up
screaming again"


Conversely, last night I had a dream that I was hanging out with my ex. I woke up abruptly from that dream to find a huge mosquito sucking at my inner elbow.

This morning I duct-taped my air conditioner.
