Dumb Luck by Dntel
just don't forget that it's dumb luck that got you here
don't fool yourself
misfortune's waiting for the best time to appear
to make it clear
that all the courage and the talent that you have
was just in dreams
and when you wake up
you will beg to get it back
to get it back
you can't trust your friends
they will betray with a love less blinding
and then at the end
they may admit that you were missing something
and no one remembers
even one word that left your mouth
all the melodies were stolen
from songs by someone else
you're out of time and inspiration
filled with self-pity and fear
and all the dreams that haven't dried up
are slowly drowning in your tears
in your tears
just don't forget
that it's dumb luck that got you here
don't fool yourself
misfortune's waiting for the best time to appear
to make it clear
that all the courage and the talent
that you have
was just in dreams
and when you wake up
you will beg to get it back
to get it back
How's that for a Monday morning song? It's cold and morning and I'm at work (at a job i hate) with a headcold. So, to wallow in something miserable and depressing, here's the soundtrack. Thank you, Jimmy Tamborello.
i hate squash and other squash-type vegetables; i don't like to run, my empathy is usually more of a curse than a blessing, and sometimes i am better at rationalizing than i am at actualizing.

Isn't it great? There are some days when I'm sure every creative, passionate person feels this way, for sure.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I said sure enough in that last post, so I wanted to be sure to comment about it. Surely.
