Too Far Down
I feel like I'm back in high school again. My musical selections this week have reflected my mood -- and have largely consisted of The Cure, Squeeze, John Wesley Harding, Elvis Costello, Morrissey/The Smiths, (dark) Depeche Mode, the Lemonheads, and Hüsker Dü:



I'm down again
And I don't know how to tell you
But maybe this time I can't come back
Because I might be too far down

I wish for real
That I could turn it on and off
Like hot and cold and up and down
Because I'm down again

I'm too far down
I couldn't begin to smile
Because I can't even laugh or cry
Because I just can't do it

If it was so easy to be happy
Why am I so down?
All I can do is sit and wonder when it's going to end
Or if I should just go away forever

When I sit and think
I wish that I just could die
Or let someone else be happy
By setting my own self free

And you don't want the emotion
Because the taste it leaves is for real
But nothing's ever real until it's gone
And I might be too far down

And is this just another thrown away
Or is this the end of the whole stupid road
But you wouldn't want to know how I feel anyway
Because the darkest hole is at the end of the road

I'm down again
And I guess I'm not the only one who dreams
That there's not any way to tell you
Because I might be too far down

Still waiting for the day where I wake up feeling like "me" again...please be patient...



Hey boy take a look at me...let me dirty up your mind...



Take all the time you need, Robyn. And at the risk of sounding like a broken record, let me know if you need anything at all. *hugs*

Don't try to rush it. One day you will wake up & feel like you, just a slightly different version of you.

For better or worse... I don't think most of us are going anywhere... Do you still have that beer in the fridge like you promised a week or so ago? :)

Hell, as heart wrenching as some of your posts are (because the situation itself is heart wrenching), they are still great reads. You really know how to put pure emotion into words. Though I really wish you peace and happiness, I look forward to reading your post no matter what the mood is.
That said, you have my patience while I await your next post...whatever it may be about.

Hang in there, things will only get better. There is a time for everything you know and you have to take the time to mourn, but believe me when I tell you there will be a time to heal and move on too, only you know when that will be but it will come. You are a good person and I wish you guys all the best, you'll be in my prayers.

Hell, I can listen to JWH for hours on end.... but if I listen to his "Name above the Title" CD a bit too long, I'm off the deep end.

No worries, Robyn. Take all the time you need.

Bob Mould has a wicked way of helping you through a tough time. Of course, the eels help too, but don't listen for too long, or you will be stuck at the bottom of the abyss. But, keep it coming. I hope you feel better.

The 80's are about never having to apologize for your music. Throw on some 'Nick Lowe and his Cowboy Outfit', or maybe 'Bad Manners', and it's prom week again.
