"A conscientious objector to the war that's in my mind.... " from Castaway (Warning)-- describes my usual mental state sooo very well!

I'm a hater a traitor in a pair of chuck taylors right now

It said home it's where your heart is but what a shame 'couse everyone's heart doesn't beat the same, they're beating out of time

Sometimes I need to apologize, sometimes I need to admit that I ain't right, sometimes I should just keep my mouth shut or only said hello, sometimes I still fell I'm walking alone

A free for all, fuck'em all, you are your own sight

We're the last call, and we're so pathetic

Are you locked in a wall that's been planned for you?

What's my price and will you pay it if it's allright

I throw away my past mistakes and xcomteplate my future, that's when I say... what the hey!?

Wall???? WORLD. loll

Are you locked up in a world that's been planned out for you?

Are you feeling like a social tool without a use?

Before The Lobotomy: "Like refugees, we're lost like refugees."

My story behind that is this: my favorite kind of line in music is where you feel this sense of clarity and strength in the line, or even just one word in the line. For this one, it's the way he sings "refugees." It reminds me of Springsteen's line from "Born To Run": "The highway's jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive."

"Forgetting you but not the time" has been stuck in my mind recently and it's been hitting close to home

^ That line has been clinging onto me ever since I first heard Whatsername. Amazing lyric. :)

Because I'm listening to Christian's Inferno at the moment, I have to point out the following lyric:

"There's fire in my veins and it's pouring out like a flood."

I love that line. I feel like it represents me at times. I just imagine fire heating up under the surface, and then just erupting out of nowhere, and there is NO mercy with the fire. So, if you are in the way, move. Otherwise, you WILL get burned.

"So take the photographs and still frames in your mind, hang it on a shelf in good health and good time, tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial, For What it's worth it was worth all the while"

"So don't you f*** me around, because I'll shoot you down"

"I must insist on being a pessimist, I'm a loner in a catastrophic mind!"

"Better thank your lucky stars"

"Give me something to do to kill some time, take me to that place that I call home, take away the strains of being lonely, take me to the tracks at Christie Road"

and I love love love the last part of hitchin' a ride how they are all like 'don't know where we're going' in the background whilst billie sings "Hitchin' a ride" it sounds awesome :)

"Let my hands flow through

Your hair. Moving closer

A kiss we'll share"

Sometimes I give myself the creeps

Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me

For what it's worth it was worth all the while

I want to be the minority

I don't need your authority

Down with the moral majority

'Cause I want to be the minority

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies

Runaway!

From the river to the street and find yourself with your face in the gutter
