twenty-something

Sometimes I think I should just stop interacting with other human beings. Like it should be illegal, just for me. I don't think I'm very good at it, and often times these interactions -- especially when they involve alcohol, pseudo-boyfriends, and gay bars -- end very badly.

In case you hadn't guessed, I'm sort of still reeling form a good-night-gone-bad. I'm embarassed, hurt, and all sort of other pleasant emotions here in the harsh light of day.

It's times like this that I just have to turn to the Ben Taylor Band:

I'm an island
Everyone can see that I'm an island
I've got ocean just about
Everywhere that I can see

So I'll be stranded unless you come to me
And I'm lonely

I would rather fall from grace completely,
than let you change my mind
I would rather bet my life against the rising of the sun.

Can't be too careful
About the friends you keep around you
Some won't ever let you down
Some who'll fail you every day

And it's a blatant disrespect of privacy
It enrages me

But I would rather fall from grace completely,
than let you change my mind
I would rather bet my life against the rising of the sun.

I'm an island
Can't you understand me I'm an Island
And I'm finally by myself
The way I've got to be

Now that's exactly the thing that's been killing me

I would rather fall from grace completely
than let you change my mind
And I would rather bet my life against the rising of the sun
I would rather bet my life against the rising of the sun
