"at night i wake up with the sheets soaking wet,
and a freight train running through the middle of my head.
only you can cool my desire.
i'm on fire."
my current love of springsteen covers, and my new love for this band, is bringing a tired smile to the end of a monday.
"you look into her eyes and it's more than your heart will allow
in august and everything after, you get a little less than you expected, somehow..."
and when autumn comes i feel warmer somehow, more alive, and i feel things so deep that my eyes are perpetually tearing. but i cry at everything, every emotion that hits me. some tears are not sad, some tears are the realization that you are falling, like the leaves, just hoping that you'll be caught, and held
and in august and everything after, sometimes when i think hard, close my damp eyes, i believe in wishes, and in you.

"i wish you would
come pick me up
take me out
fuck me up
steal my records
screw all my friends behind my back
with a smile on your face
and then do it again
i wish you would."
