Stroke 9 - Vacuum Bag

You'll never know what happened to me
It's just one of those things
I was sitting by myself
And my thoughts started pouring out
Remember that time on our trip
You asked me where we were going
I said, "Barcelona"
You said, "That's not what I meant"
Maybe I'll never get it
I just don't think I'm like that
Don't like planning stuff out
It never happens that way

I'm like a vacuum bag
That holds all that old dirt
Remember that time we found
Your mom's Valium
And took it?

Don't hate me
Don't regret me
Don't ever
Forget me
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
Don't say I
Never loved you

That summer when we wore no shoes
And we danced on the Fourth of July
And we listened to your sister's records
And Frampton came alive
Even then you knew what you wanted
Even then I had no clue
Well I was just living in the moment
And the moment was all about you
Remember that time in L.A.
You asked me what we were doing
I said, "We're doing fine"
You said, "Here we go again"

I'm like a vacuum bag
That holds all that old dirt
Remember that time we said
We'd be together
Forever?

Don't hate me
Don't regret me
Don't ever
Forget me
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
Don't say I
Never loved you

'Cause it matters to me
Can you hear me?
Every day I ask
The same thing

Will you ever know what happened to me?
It happens everyday
And you wonder what went on
It's there and then it's gone
Maybe I'm sentimental
And I start to reminisce
And every time I do

I still wanna tell you this

Don't hate me
Don't regret me
Don't ever
Forget me
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
Don't say I
Never loved you

Don't hate me
Don't regret me
Don't ever
Forget me
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
Don't say I
Never loved you


REASON:
August was a very eventful month, thus the six day delay.  In August, I 
saw my friends and family for the last time I will until Christmas, and 
had a falling out with both.  I've made up with my friends, but the 
last time I saw Alain, I was pissed and he was drugged up on 
painkillers.  I was pissed because I had taken so much dirt that the 
vacuum bag broke.  And even though we've always said that we'd stick 
together, here I am, 2000 miles away.  But we're not gonna let this get 
to us.  Still, you should never have to tell your best friend goodbye 
three times in less than a year...  But this song isn't just about 
them, or my family.  It's about her, too.  She's the girl that led me 
to apply to DigiPen in the first place, thinking I'd never have a 
chance, but it'd be nice if we weren't so far away.  Maybe then we'd 
dare to date... and we are.  Still I want to tell everyone this...  
Read the chorus.  It's for you all.
