In-Between

"Buried Myself Alive" - The Used

It's 2:04am. Dammit, so close to making my funky curfew. Ah, screw it. Just another day. I'll make it to bed soon enough.

I wanted to listen to The Used for some reason. I have mixed feelings about this band. I guess like Jimmy Eat World, they are my in-between between break-ups and falling in love. I have no idea what the titles of any of their songs are, but I definitely know which side I was on at the time when I clicked on each track.

Some would burn a hole through my chest. One of those long-lasting burns that make my heart melt. Some would make me giggle with glee like a little school girl with a cute crush. Either way, most of them made me feel some sorta sensation as I sat back and listened.

It's kinda funny. I almost chose "On My Own," but when it started to play it nearly knocked me out of my seat. I can't believe it's not up here yet, but it's too damn depressing to tolerate at the moment. It's not like the choice I made was any better by any means, but it sure did hit the spot like my big bowl of hot Pho I had for dinner tonight. And that's all I really needed before I attempt to sleep.

Lyrics:

you almost always pick the best times
to drop the worst lines
you almost made me cry again this time
another false alarm
red flashing lights
well this time I'm not going to watch myself die
I think I made it a game to play your game
and let myself cry
I buried myself alive on the inside
so I could shut you out
and let you go away for a long time

I guess it's ok I puked the day away
I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way
and if you want me back
you're gonna have to ask

I think the chain broke away
and I felt it the day that I had my own time
I took advantage of myself and felt fine
but it was worth the night
I caught an early flight and I made it home

I guess it's ok I puked the day away
I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way
and if you want me back
you're gonna have to ask
nicer than that
nicer than that

with my foot on your neck
I finally have you
right where I want you
right where I want you
right where I want you
right where I want you

I guess it's ok I puked the day away
I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way
and if you want me back
you're gonna have to ask
nicer than that
nicer than that
and if you want me back
you're gonna have to ask
nicer than that
nicer
nicer
