A Song a Day

Lyrics are on the video.
A feral tom cat that became close to my heart has recently died.
This is a song for him and for all the pets i ever had.
I feel horrible as if all their deaths were all caused by me.
I don't establish relationships well with humans, i can only do well with animals, but losing the, just keeps breaking my heart, it makes living without them terrifying that I'd rather die and be with them.
 
Down in It
Nine Inch Nails
Lyrics
Kinda like a cloud I was up way up in the sky
And I was feeling some feelings you wouldn't believe
Sometimes I don't believe them myself
And I decided I was never coming down
Just then a tiny little dot caught my eye
It was just about too small to see
But I watched it way too long
That dot was pulling me down
I was up above it
I was up above it
I was up above it
I was up above it
Now I'm down in it
Shut up
So what what does it matter now
I was swimming in the hate now I crawl on the ground
And everything I never liked about you
Is kind of seeping into me
I try to laugh about it now but isn't it funny how everything works out
I guess the jokes on me, she said
I was up above it
I was up above it
I was up above it
I was up above it
I used to be so big and strong
I used to know my right from wrong
I used to never be afraid
I used to be somebody
I used to have something inside
Now just this hole it's open wide
Used to want it all
I used to be somebody
I'll cross my heart and hope to die
But the needle's already in my eye
And all the world's weight is on my back and I don't even know why.
And what I used to think was me is just a fading memory
I looked him right in the eye and said goodbye
I was up above it
I was up above it
I was up above it
I was up above it
Now I'm down in it
I was up above it
I was up above it
Now I'm down in it
Rain rain go away
Come again some other day
Rain rain go away
Come again some other day
Rain rain go away
Come again some other day
Rain rain go away
Come again some other day
I was up above it
I was up above it
I was up above it
I was up above it
Now I'm down in it

I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I don't think your pets died because of you. If it wasn't for you they probably wouldn't have lived as long.

@JDot thanks, I'm still upset, can't really eat or sleep.

Are you in to kpop?

Another reason for me to be sad, all the kpop girl groups, that caused me to be a fan is disbanding one by one. I know it's inevitable but it's just unsettling.

I started getting into kpop last year. I'm obsessed with it now. For the past 6-8 months it's been about all I listen to. lol. I agree about the girl groups disbanding. It's sad. 4minute and 2NE1 are my top favorites and they're not even together anymore. And Wonder Girls too. Lets just hope nothing happens to Girls Generation.

That's lovely. So sorry for your loss. Sad hug.

Been gone for so long.. Things have not been the greatest.. I did manage to update the youtube playlist for this thread though :)


there's a shield around us
it's invisible & soundless
& we drink too much & fuck too soon
smoke cigarettes in rented rooms
we quit our jobs & shoot the moon
& cut our wrists & sleep til noon

there's a shield around us
we're invincible & boundless
& we're on the run from I don't know
we're Patty Hearst & Squeaky Fromme
asleep on subways far from home
you'd think we'd never seen a comb

sent a letter to Mom & Dad
Mom & Dad the money's running out
got a letter from Mom & Dad
they didn't send me anything

there's a shield around us
we are heady we are groundless
& we burn our friends & kill their names
build insecure & petty fames
& tattoo things that we believe
stars & skulls & hearts in half-sleeves

there's a shield around us
tell me how is it you've found us
cause we hide our tracks & watch the ground
our footfalls they don't make a sound
we've cursed the names of our hometowns
we're compassless & nowhere bound

sent a letter to Mom & Dad
Mom & Dad the money's running out
got a letter from Mom & Dad
I swear to God they don't get me at all
