I didn't LIE. See? I wrote something. I WROTE SOMETHING!!!

AM I NOT MERCIFUL?!?!?!?

I Probably wouldn't be posting but that I wrote a song and feel I should put it here for posterity's sake, since you know... all you ASSHOLES who complain about me not posting don't comment when I DO post. Look, I'm not looking for attention, or else I wouldn've kept posting, don't CONFUSE me.

Alright. Ryan Leng, YOU are exempt. Exempt from all contempt, my brother. My musical compadre. I will keep you updated, updated of the progress on this new, fully operational album. Guess what, you shits? You can't stop it. THE MAN can't stop it! I'm gonna be a hero, a martyr, let it all hang out, change the world with the power of my rock! I swear it, ALL darkness shall be reclaimed and I will embrace my destiny as a rock and roll legend.

Okay, now that I've got that out of my system...

So anyway. I wrote this. I have music. Frankly, I think the latter makes the song. But read the words too, if you feel so inclined. I guess they probably say something.

If I could count all of the women I have fallen in love with

Dividing, breaking it down so far that my love could not exist

There’s a simple, frightening fact with which I’d have to come to grips

It’s a waste of time to hope and fantasize over every winking waitress

Exhausted on a midnight bus ride home, out of some ghost forsaken town

Smiling with my hand on your chin, a spectacular grin, like it’s right out of a film

We’d laugh till we were tired, I’d memorize your last eyelash as it fell

And I’d know she wasn’t sleeping then, just dreaming of someone else

She says the evening over Rome, or Barcelona

Every time I have to say her name

She’s like a princess twirling all along the sidelines

And like a little boy chasing leaves, I play her game

She watches from the front row, behind her teary eyes

I’d soar from the stage to rescue her, but she’d think that I had lied

“You were acting!” She posed, and screamed. It’d be so strange, not to try and hide

Without our smoke and mirrors and my guitar, I’d probably get tossed aside

She says the evening over Rome, or Barcelona

Every time I have to say her name

She’s like a princess twirling all along the sidelines

And like a little boy chasing leaves, I play her game

I would tear down all the walls for you to want me

I would drink the bleeding hearts of every star

Till the universe was black, and nothing beautiful remained

I would give you more love than I could ever offer

When the hangars clang and clatter, Christmas sleigh bells on the roof.

Hanging over the backyard alley, and the new construction’s truth

Where your baby’s father goes to work, selling coke and blocks of green

I’m not lying girl, I’m waiting, and I’m coming to set you free

She says the evening over Rome, or Barcelona

Every time I have to say her name

She’s like a princess twirling all along the sidelines

And like a little boy chasing leaves, I play her game

I would tear down all the walls for you to want me

I would drink the bleeding hearts of every star

Till the universe was black, and nothing beautiful remained

I would give you more love than I ever had to offer

And I’d die, I’d die so satisfied!

I’ve heard that too much of a good thing is a thing that does not last

If you build your fire too big, you’ll just end up with a bunch of ash

I could sit patiently like a schoolboy for the world to give my fifteen minute turn

But I guess I’ve never minded fire, so let’s light the earth up, and just let her burn!

And I know it isn’t love, I’m just dancing round’ the fire

I’m drunk, thinking of you, and I’m dancing round’ the fire

I make a thousand promises but my bones will never break me free

So come on and dance, dance, dance with me

Have a drink and dance with me around the fire
