Long gone before daylight

It’s way too late to think of
Someone I would call now,
The neon signs got tired.
Red-eyed flights help the stars south,
I’m safe in a corner,
Just hours before me...

I’m waking with the roaches
The world has surrendered,
I’m dating ancient ghosts,
The ones I made friend with.
The comfort of fireflies,
Long gone before daylight...

And if I had one wish fulfilled tonight,
I’d ask for the sun to never arise.
If God lend his voice to me to speak...

I’d say: go to bed world!

I’ve always been to lame
To see what’s before me
And I know nothing’s sweeter than
Champaign from last new years,
Sweet music in my ears
And a night full of no fear.

But if I had one wish fulfilled tonight,
I’d ask for the sun to never arise.
If God pass the might to me to speak...
I’d say: stay in bed, world... sleep in peace!

The Cardigans, 03:45 : no sleep , Long gone before daylight

Battle Royale

The highway's jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive
Everybody's out on the run tonight
but there's no place left to hide
Together Wendy we'll live with the sadness
I'll love you with all the madness in my soul
Someday girl I don't know when
we're gonna get to that place
Where we really want to go
and we'll walk in the sun
But till then tramps like us
baby we were born to run .

~Bruce Springsteen, 'born to run'

For all of you out there as september starts:
(et merci Liz pour l'idée...lulu, je t'emprunte ta chanson^^)


Help, I need somebody,
Help, not just anybody,
Help, you know I need someone, help.
When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way.
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the doors.
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me?
And now my life has changed in oh so many ways,
My independence seems to vanish in the haze.
But every now and then I feel so insecure,
I know that I just need you like I've never done before.
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me.
When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way.
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the doors.
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me, help me, help me, oh.

Have fun...
Je pars aux States demain, donc...moins souvent en ligne. Very sad, me knows.

Je vis dans une famille de mangeurs diététiques...surtout la partie américaine, aussi bizarre que ça puisse paraître. Deux de mes oncles mangent 'normalement' (cad : avec apports reguliers de sucre et de graisses, a n'importe quelle heure) , mais le reste...lait ou eau à tous les repas, pas un gramme de beurre en trop sur les légumes sautés, 'McDo' et 'popcorn' sont des mots tabous, et pas de snacks entre les repas.
Je ne dis pas que c'est insupportable (ils cuisinent même assez bien, avec le peu de goût disponible x_x ), mais au bout d'un moment...on se prend à rêver de glaces, de chocolat, ou tout simplement d'un bon gros plat de pâtes nageant dans le beurre , la crême et le fromage fondu.

Allez - bonnes vacances à tout le monde.

Oi, take a look at this, people....

Goodbye "Red" United States

The residents of the Blue States intend to form our own country!

In case you aren't aware, that includes Hawaii, California, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois and all the Northeastern United States. We believe this split will be beneficial to the nation.

To sum up briefly:

You get Texas, Oklahoma and all the slave states.
We get stem cell research and the best beaches.
We get Elliot Spitzer. You get Ken Lay.
We get the Statue of Liberty. You get OpryLand.
We get Intel and Microsoft. You get WorldCom.
We get Harvard. You get Ole' Miss.

We get 85 percent of America's venture capital and entrepreneurs. You get Alabama.
We get two-thirds of the tax revenue, you get to make the red states pay their fair share.

Since our aggregate divorce rate is 22 percent lower than the Christian Coalition's, we get a bunch of happy families.
You get a bunch of single moms.

Please be aware that our new nation will be pro-choice and
anti-war, and we're going to want all our citizens back from Iraq at once.

If you need people to fight, ask your evangelicals.
They have kids they're apparently willing to send to their deaths for no purpose, and they don't care if you don't show pictures of their children's caskets coming home.
We do wish you success in Iraq, and hope that the WMDs turn up, but we're not willing to spend our resources in Bush's Quagmire.

With the Blue States in hand, we will have firm control of 80 percent of the country's fresh water, more than 90 percent of the pineapple and lettuce, 92 percent of the nation's fresh fruit, 95 percent of America's quality wines (you can serve French wines at state dinners), 90 percent of all cheese, 90 percent of the high tech industry, most of the U.S. low-sulfur coal, all living redwoods, sequoias and condors, all the Ivy and Seven Sister schools, plus Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Cal Tech and MIT.

With the Red States, on the other hand, you will have to cope with 88 percent of all obese Americans (and their projected health care costs), 92 percent of all U.S. mosquitoes, nearly 100 percent of the tornadoes, 90 percent of the hurricanes, 99 percent of all Southern Baptists, virtually 100 percent of all televangelists, Rush Limbaugh, Bob Jones University, Clemson and the University of Georgia.

Additionally, 38 percent of those in the Red states believe Jonah was actually swallowed by a whale, 62 percent believe life is sacred unless we're discussing the death penalty or gun laws, 44 percent say that evolution is only a theory, 53 percent that Saddam was involved in
9/11 and 61 percent of you crazy bastards believe you are people with higher morals then we lefties.

By the way, we're taking the good Pot too.
You can have that dirt weed they grow in Mexico.

Sincerely,
Nation Blue.

P.S...we don't like you and we don't need you.

It's Vacation time, people....lovely little Miriam.
