I stand before the jury waiting for their decision I make a silent prayer... Please, let them see my regret Please, let them have mercy I stand before a jury of bottle-blonde beauties. nailed to the tiled-floor blood smeared over my feet They hold me hostage I stand before the jury Wanting to hear whatever these godesses say They rule over all They speak the law I stand before the jury too scared to cry too brave to smile politely I glance towards the audience of previous friends and past-loves Wishing they would protest I stand before the jury and see a face I recognise She looks so familiar yet I know for sure she is different Her hair isn't as blonde Her teeth not as white Her eyes not as blue I stand before the jury And stare at this fake I realise she is the person I once trusted the one i loved I realise all I need is to hear her say I stand before the jury And I glance to the judge Its him The person my heart aches for He has the deciding vote I stand and pray for forgiveness Its too late I hear her whisper Its too late The girl I recognised wants too yell The gavel slams signalling the end of all discussions "Guilty as charged" I plead with my eyes But his are cold And they take me away into a jail of depression and heartbreak I am alone in this war nirvana means freedom from pain, suffering and the external world. |

I'll pay your bail anytime. I saw your name on the list and I jumped. Reminds me of that story Laura was writing, once, ages ago. "If a greater wave shall fall, Let it fall upon us all." Beautifully sad Soph, hope to see you very soon, Miss you heaps. "High above the mucky-muck, castle made of clouds, There sits Wonderboy, sitting oh so proudly. Not much to say when you're high above the mucky-muck. Yeah, yeah. Wonderboy, what is the secret of your power? Wonderboy, won't you take me far away from the mucky-muck man? " I'll take you away from the mucky-muck! Hollow. Courtney. You just got to see me through another day |

Hahahaha, Tenacious D, well that's where that one came from. Couldn't reply to your new one but...I liked it, a little scary (just watched Donnie Darko!), one part reminded me of.... "I'm struggling to keep my head above water in this crazy business." - River Phoenix. I guess you both felt the same, lucky you. Hollow. Courtney. You just got to see me through another day |
