It worked quite well, though it's more like it distracted my angst with angst over money. I know I am meant to save, so what do I do? I spend over $100 in one day. I bought: I love these shoes. They have bats on them. And they are quite comfortable. Tomorrow I was meant to be going to the zoo with Jen and Caitlin but work rang today to tell me there was a meeting at 8am and ask if I could then work till 12. After today I need the money, so instead we're just going to chill in the city for a couple of hours. Today's song choice: The Sharpest Lives Fourth track on their latest album The Black Parade, this song makes relapse sound sexy. From the bass at the beginning that reminds me of rapid heart beats, to Gerard's acidic, angry and downright sexy vocals, to Frank's "spy guitar" during the chorus. I love to pick this song to pieces. Normally I focus on a song as a whole but every little bit of this song makes me glee. And the lyrics. God, the lyrics. They are so freaking fantastic. If I ever got lyrics as a tattoo there's a very good chance it would be "Juliet loves the beat and the lust it commands" because it's so freaking true. I am a slave to this song. My desire is a slave to this song. This song features on almost every single playlist I have on my itunes. Seriously. Think about the lyrics. They are A.W.E.S.O.M.E. Every time I am listening to this song while writing an entry I seriously struggle to choose which line to put as my Title. Well it rains and it pours when you're out on your own, if I crash on the couch can I sleep in my clothes? 'Cause I've spent the night dancing I'm drunk, I suppose. If it looks like I'm laughing I'm really just asking to leave. This alone, you're in time for the show. You're the one that I need I'm the one that you loathe, you can watch me corrode like a beast in repose 'cause I love all the poison; away with the boys in the band. I've really been on a bender and it shows, so why don't you blow me a kiss before she goes? Give me a shot to remember and you can take all the pain away from me. A kiss and I will surrender. The sharpest lives are the deadliest to lead. A light to burn all the empires, so bright the sun is ashamed to rise and be in love with all of these vampires. So you can leave like the sane abandoned me. There's a place in the dark where the animals go, you can take off your skin in the cannibal glow. Juliet loves the beat and the lust it commands - drop the dagger and lather the blood on your hands, Romeo.  so darken your clothes or strike a violent pose - 2007-11-20
