Switchfoot - Erosion
Rain is a bad reminder of everything I don't wanna know
Rain is a backseat driver that takes me where I don't wanna go
And it looks like the sky is caving in again
I'm dry and cracked, the sky goes black
And tut, tut, it looks like rain

Erosion
Oh, Spirit fall like rain on my thirsty sould
Erosion
Oh, sweet erosion, break me and make me whole

The thirstiest grounds can't take the rain
My undecided vices washing on down the drain
And it looks like the sky is caving in again
My heart is cracked, the sky goes black
And tut, tut, it looks like rain

Oh, Erosion, would You wash away my sins
Oh, Erosion, I need a second start again
Oh, Erosion, would You break my heart again
Oh, Erosion, I am a broken hearted man

Switchfoot - Economy of Mercy
There's just two ways to lose yourself in this life
And neither way is safe
In my dreams I see visions of the future
But today we have today
And where will I find You?

In the economy of mercy
I am a poor and begging man
In the currency of Grace
Is where my song begins
In the colors of Your goodness
In the scars that mark your skin
In the currency of Grace
Is where my song begins

These carbon shells
These fragile dusty frames
House canvases of souls
We are bruised and broken masterpieces
But we did not paint ourselves
And where will I find You?

Where was I when the world was made?
Where was I?

I'm lost without You here
Yes, I'm lost without You near me
I'm lost without You here
You knew my name when the world was made.

What's with the lyrics?

I have been listening to alot of switchfoot lately. It's been a while, actually. Last night I put on some switchfoot while playing in Ao1 and I realized something.

I felt funny.

And with the funny feeling came memories, two in particular. One was of the way things were immediatley after breaking up with Lisa, and the other was of getting frustrated while trying to kill Radscorpions in fallout. I thought it was kinda cool in some wats, not cool in others, and it got me kind of emotional for a while. I don't really know why, but music can really get me in touch with my emotions.

I guess I better blog about some other stuff too.

Sarah

As has become tradition, I have decided to completley negate the post below this one. Not much of a choice really, but, I did. I broke up for Sarah. The reasons behind me doing it are sound. I think that if you really want to know, you can ask me. I may not, but asking me is the only way you are gonna get anything, because I don't feel compelled to write it down for the whole world to analyze.

Dating?

Meh. I'd like to date again, but I'm too lazy to work for that. It seems like while dating is fun and worth it, there is a pain factor, and in all honesty, it seems like it could be more of a hassle than its worth. Not to mention that, I'd have to work to find someone to date. I mean, I just realized that I don't know many girls that I could date. Let's see. (This seems a rather cold-blooded way to look at this in retrospect, but, ah, what the hell.)

All the girls that I know that have not graduated:
Sarah - Already dated her, not going to date her again, my own reasons, go die.
Lisa - Already dated her, and that could have gone much better. A major reason that failed was because of some choices that I made before the relationship that came back to bite me in the butt. That, and I annoy her alot. Ah well.
Jenny - dating Phillip
Annie - Dating Tony
Julie - As far as I know, Julie doesn't date, and I think I make her uncomfortable.
Angela - I just think that would fail in ways unimaginable. Like a land war in asia.
Meagan - As far as I know, Meagan doesn't date, and her mom is creepy. Her mom has wanted me to date her for over a year now. Creeepy.
Marissa - Sorry, no.

That was about as far as I got before I stopped caring. Ella also said that I would make a shitty boyfriend, because I have no compassion and no romantic tendancies. She may be right, but whatever.

I'mma go play WoW. It pwns.
