I WANT TO LEAVE MAYBE JUST FOR A DAY
SOMEWHERE WHERE I WOULDN'T HAVE TO STAY
AWAY IN THE NIGHT I WOULD FLY ON MY WINGS
AND GO SOMEWHERE...AWAY

I WANT TO GO AND STEAL A CAR
AND DRIVE FOR HOURS TO TAKE ME FAR
ON THIS RIDE I WOULD HAVE NO FEAR
AND STOP TO GET DRUNK AT A FAR AWAY BAR

I WANT TO MAKE LOVE TO A STRANGER IN THE NIGHT
AND NOT HAVE TO CRY OR PUT UP A FIGHT
TO HAVE NO GUILT ON MY SWOLEN HEART
JUST FOR IT TO FEEL SO RIGHT

I WANT TO BREAK THE LAW AND MY ADRILLIAN RUSH
WITH MY MIND TELLING MY FEARS TO HUSH
THERE WOULD BE NO LIMITS TO WHAT I WOULD DO
MY SOUL WOULD BE DANCING THRU PILES OF MUSH

I WANT TO HOLD A GUN UP TO A MANS HEAD
AND PULL THE TRIGGER TILL HE WAS DEAD
THEN TELL MYSELF HES DONE SO WRONG
AND LEAVE HIM TO SUFFER IN HIS OWN BED
JUST FOR A DAY

I KNOW THIS ONE MAKES ME SOUND WEIRD...BUT IT JUST CAME OUT...I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE LINE "TO HAVE NO GUILT ON MY SWOLEN HEART" IT DOESN'T FIT ANY SUGGESTIONS?

ummm...no suggestions for that line...I accually think that line fits and the next doesn't....*S*. This is very dark, not sure what I should say to this except, your consceince is the only thing you really have to live with. If you get away with something horrible (eg. do not get arrested) you still have to deal with yourself.

Hey, I love this (I know, everyone's thinking, "She would...") I love dark twisted stuff, and this is exactly that. LOL just don't take this one to school!!!!!

Thinking is just what a great many people think they are doing when they are merely rearranging their predjudices.
