It's A Pity In the City/ My Heroine

Greetings comrades, Prime Minister Rubes here with a national address.... in Soviet Russia, blog reads you! Ha... what's going on guys... just finished watching the most epic Yankee game of the season! And of course it ended with us beating the Red Sox...fuck those fuckin' fuckers. I kinda had a feeling that A-Rod would end it on his next at bat, and look how things turned out... coincidence? I think NOT!

I had a pretty good day in the city... chilled with a friend of mine for a little while, who bought me sunglasses... red ones.. they look sick, thanks, Nelly =). Then I went to see my sister in a play. The plot was that she was the last woman on earth, only other person on earth was her ex-boyfriend... awkwardddd. It was really good though, it was part of a larger show made up of short plays. I spent much of my day in Manhattan, just running errands and hanging out. I love Manhattan, there's a different energy there than anywhere else. I feel like I can do anything I want there and not be judged or frowned upon, because the city is chock full of people who are so diverse and just don't care about how weird you are, either because their weird themselves or they're too busy to give a shit.

I also went to get some tortex guitar picks today, the ones i have always slip out of my hand when I play... oh I'm writing a new song too. It's about sex ;). I have three songs so far. The first one is called "The Place I Used To Be" and it's about a whole bunch of stuff... one verse is about one thing, while the other verse is about something totally different, and the chorus is a whole different story. My second song is about a guy who falls in love with a girl, typical love song stuff, blah blah... that on is called "She Loves Me, She Loves Me Not." My latest song, which isn't done yet, is called "I Mean Business" and it's basically about a guy trying to get a girl to have sex with him. I wanna show more people my songs, so if you're interested in hearing them I'll play them for you one day.

Now for my next trick, boys and girls, I'm gonna pull a rabbit out my ass..... ta-da! Nah but I am gonna share another song with you guys. It's called My Heroine, by Silverstein... they're from Canada, eh?! Anyways, I'm in love with this song, man... I've actually been listening to it and it's acoustic version on repeat the whole time that I've been writing this post. It's just an awesome song... I can't describe it any other way. Well, maybe I can, but i think it'd be better if you listen to it and find your own way to describe it. Here it is:



The lyrics in the vid are slightly wrong, according to the person that posted it on YouTube, so here are the lyrics:

the drugs begin to peak
A smile of joy arrives in me
But sedation changes to panic and nausea
And breath starts to shorten
And heartbeats pound softer.

You wont try to save me
You just want to hurt me and leave me desperate.

You taught my heart
A sense I never knew I had
I can't forget
The times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truth
How do you do it?
You're my heroine.

You won't leave me alone
Chisel my heart out of stone
I give in everytime.

You taught my heart
A sense I never knew I had
I can't forget
The times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truth
How do you do it?
You're my heroine

I bet you laugh
At the thought of me thinking for myself (myself)
I bet you believe (bet you believe)
That I'm better off with you than someone else

Your face arrives again
All hope I had becomes surreal
But under your cover's
More torture than pleasure
And just past your lips
There's more anger than laughter
Not now or forever will I ever change you
I know that to go on I'll break you, my habit

You taught my heart
A sense I never knew I had
I can't forget
The times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truth
How do you do it?
You're my heroine

I will save myself.

Very deep song, watch the official video if you get the chance. I would have posted it but the sound quality wasn't so good on the vid. You've probably noticed by now I'm into emo music... idk if one would classify this song as emo, but idc either way. The way I look at music is that if I like it, then I like it, that's it. Screw what other people think of what I listen to... and I don't rule out liking a song just because it's a particular genre. I'm more into rock then anything else, but I still like R&B, Rap once in a while still, some Techno, Spanish music (Salsa, Merengue, Bachata) and I'll really give any song a chance, regardless of what type of music it is.

Well it looks like this post is coming to an end... it's been fun, but I gotta go, homes... I'll write something new tomorrow. Hasta la vista, bloggers.
