| January 2, 2001 Happy New Year! I decided to add a little more to my web page. Because this is to be a constantly-changing page, I also chose a new background, taken from Bertino's web page. In late December, I purchased a copy of Poe's new album, Haunted. The album's theme centers around the recent death of her father, and - being a stereotypical girl being stereotypically estranged from her father, a lot of the songs hit pretty close to home. Even down to chess references (which my father taught me to play), abandoning dreams and selling out one's heart...funny how our lives can parallel each other's. "Control" (excerpt) Don't you mess with a little girl's dreams 'Cause she's liable to grow up mean Curious to hear what I'm so hooked on? Click here! Surprised you to find that I'm laughing? You thought that you'd find me in tears You thought I'd be crawling the walls Like a tiny mosquito and trembling in fear Well, you may be king for the moment But I am the queen - understand And I've got your pawns and your bishops And castles All inside the palm of my hand While you were looking the other way While you had your eyes closed While you were licking your lips 'Cause I was miserable While you were selling your soul While you were tearing a hole in me I was taking control... "Haunted" (excerpt) And I'm haunted By the lives that I have loved And actions I have hated I'm haunted By the lives that wove the web Inside my haunted head... "Wild" (excerpts) I go wild cause you break me open Wild cause you left me here I go wild... ...Wild 'cause it doesn't make any sense For me to cry out in my own defense Wild 'cause I would do anything To tear you off your precious fence... ...Tell me what you've come for Moving like a hunter through my back door Leaving the perfume of all you adore To die nameless on my floor... You've got a lot of nerve to come back here You're not the only one who can smell fear I go wild 'Cause you break me open Wild 'Cause you left me here I go wild 'Cause your promises are broken Wild Don't you get it dear? You're not the only one who lives on instincts No I've got instincts of my own You've got a lot of nerve to come back Plan your attack - yeah, I am still waiting You wrote the rules to try to contain me You broke 'em Now you have untamed me I go wild I go wild Tell me what you've come for What is it you adore - Won't you tell me? What would you Go wild for? You've got a lot of nerve to come back here Speak up my darling I have been waiting... |
