take me to the good times
the good times we once knew
take me to your place
take me all the way
take me too
take me too
cannot sing the song
without thinking about it all
there's so much that can't be placed
can't be shelved
nor hung upon a nail
go to cut the wrist and miss
dove off a cliff and merely flew
take to me the good times
to the good times we once knew

you're still there,
i'm not.
you're still there,
and i'm not.

stood upon the rise and screamed
though it did no good
memory burnt etches
itch inside the head
constantly falling
feet locked upon the floor
how do i get out of this
how do i get out

take me to the good times
the good times we once knew
take me to your hideaway
take me all the way
take me too
take me too
cannot sing the song
without thinking about it all
there's so much that can't be hidden
can't be bottled
nor beat into the ground
go to kiss the sky but shy away
took a trip and felt alone
take to me the good times
to the good times we once knew

you're still there,
i'm not.
you're still there,
and i'm not.

you're still there,
and i'm not.
you're still there,
and i'm not.

take me to the good times we once knew
take me to the good times we once knew
take me to the good times we once knew
take me to the good times we once knew
take me to the good times we once knew

    Got my first ride in a police car last night.

    They said I was the most cooperative guy they've ever taken in... gave me a "DUI per se"... whatever that means... I wasn't drunk... but blew 0.086... which was just enough.

    another day in the life of a 25 year old boy...

    i like your poem.... sometimes i like to forget the past the good, bad altogether
    “ ahh…. Yaa…. If you trust me at all… if you wanna listen to me at all… which you certainly don’t have to. Speaking from experience I can tell you that things change. You could believe me, you don’t have to. They probably won’t change, unless you make them. The best way to change something around you, something you don’t like, is.. to change yourself. I don’t think you want other people changing you.. I think.. I think.. the only person you want changing you… is yourself. So if you ain’t happy…. If you’re reading magazines about generation x’s and thinking ‘ya im one of them’ well fuck that…. Don’t let anybody tell you who you are. No… No…. No one can tell me who I am. I can tell you who I am but that would be a long story… I can tell you who I am and it wouldn’t fit in a Rolling Stone…. It wouldn’t fit in a video… it wouldn’t… its my life…. Its your life. Youre the only one that knows who you are. I hope you know who you are. If you don’t know who you are, figure it out. Cause you are some body. And Im probably stating the obvious. But I just thought I would do it anyway. So if you fell like you got a piece of duct tape on your mouth, if you feel like you cant speak. Take it off, Speak up. Speak your Mind. Shout it Out. Let ‘em Hear Ya. Shout it out…… YAAA YAAAAA yAAAAAAAAAAA.” Eddie Vedder (Porch ’96 Randle Island 2)
