Ashes Fall

There’s someone inside me that softly kills everyone around
They don’t know they’re dead to me cause intent never makes a sound
All along they found us strangled, lovers have learned from slower hands
With these eleven minutes I could teach you what I am

You’re sick, sick as all the
Secrets that you deny
Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide
You’re sick, sick as all the
Secrets that you deny
Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide

There’s a knot of reclusion, production, and depression
If a stranger turns up missing, this song is my confession
Tell the tales of the trail of dead, lovers learn from slower hands
Losing self in myself, inner demons make demands

You’re sick, sick as all the
Secrets that you deny
Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide
You’re sick, sick as all the
Secrets that you deny
Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide

You’re suffocating me, so very hard to breathe
My mask is growing heavy but I’ve forgotten who’s beneath

You’re sick, sick as all the
Secrets that you deny
Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide
You’re sick, sick as all the
Secrets that you deny
Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide

Come and go now as you please
Your actions write the melodies
To the songs that we sing
And you just sing

And I finally found that life goes on without you
And my world still turns when you’re not around

Is this the way you want it?
Is this the way it has to be?
Sitting here beside you
But my heart’s lost in New Orleans
Dreams come clever
Hearts now severed
Difference of forever
And I am lost there

Come and go now as you please
Your actions write the melodies
To the songs that we sing
And you just sing along out loud

Subject credit to the song “Die for Love” by Johnny Hollow.

Dyed my hair last night. Originally, I’m a little blonde-ish (light brown), but now it’s a dark brown with a wee bit of a purple tint. It’s so pretty. I freaking love it. Luke was the first person to notice by himself lol.

Speaking of Luke, he introduced me to what could possibly be my new favorite Geek Toy: MacRabbit’s CSSEdit. Take a website. Any website. Load it in the preview browser. Muck up the CSS. Think I’m kidding? Nope! It’s so funny. You can take, say, Microsoft’s website and turn it pink if you wanted. It doesn’t affect the site; just the preview browser. Other than that, it’s actually really useful, making the changes live as soon as you make them in the coding. And it’s fun to muck up people’s sites. Ha!

Speaking of dying my hair, while I was waiting on it, I started in on In Search of Eden by Linda Sparks. I’m hardly through the first chapter, but I can already tell this is going to be good.

Oh, man, I’m gonna be upset. I have to completely redo Mikey Way Online. I’m trying to make it standards compliant but, in addition to that, I’m getting errors in WordPress basically because I coded the theme wrong and now it’s not displaying comments (the whole thing) or entry authors.

Onto my new music discoveries: Johnny Hollow, The Audition, Mayday Parade, All Time Low, The Maine, Anberlin. They’re fantastic and I’ve been listening to them on repeat.

Music rediscoveries: Three Doors Down, Reggie And The Full Effect.

By the way, Reggie and the Full Effect’s new CD, Last Stop: Crappy Town, is totally rockin’ my socks. End of story. I just got it in the mail today (via UPS) with the limited edition tee (came with the preorder) and my 6 magazines that I need to scan and put up on Mikey Way Online.
