The Sound Track of My Life...

With the thought that some of my comments about this past weekend might hurt and offend someone, I'm not going to be talking about it too much other to say, it was messed up. Sometimes things happen that show you exactly where you are and where you need to be and this past weekend was one of those moments. I'm hurt and angry, but not hateful and resentful.

I've noticed, in my life, that music seems to find me in times of need. If I'm happy, some song will come along at exactly the right moment that just adds to that feeling. When I'm depressed or angry a song will pop up that describes how I feel or feels how I do that helps me sort things out. This weekend I had another one of those moments. The only album I brought along on my trip was the new Queens of the Stoneage, Lullibies to Paralyze. I loved the new CD before I left, but now it might be one of my all time favorites. A lot of the music on it and lyrics just matched so equally with how I felt, it was just scary. By far, the song that can best describe my feelings is the closing track, The Long Slow Good-Bye. It's just weird...

"Long Slow Goodbye"
Song by: QOTSA

Where have you gone again my sweet?
Everybody wants to know
Where have you gone again my sweet?
Everybody wants to know
Where you gone?

I'm just a ghost, i'm on your street
Waitin', when you comin' home?
Gone so long
Where you gone?
On a long slow goodbye?
On a long slow goodbye...

In every voice, i hear you speak
Waitin' by the telephone
I close my eyes, i just can't sleep
Roll & tumble all night long
All night long
Where you gone?

I close my eyes, i just can't sleep
Where have you gone again my sweet?

On a long slow goodbye?
On a long slow goodbye...

Goodbye

'slater,

Luthor...werd
