Music is a firework
when Honey Bear isn't around
to hold the splinters of me
I have music
my temporary fix
My ability to listen for hours on end
surprises my mother
and I am better than anyone I know
at memorizing others' words
I know over 10,000
from what my Ipod tells me
and although I can never remember the songs I write
(My band mates are patient saints, I must say)
I can lace those words together so well
Music!
My true angel!
If I were God,
Music is your savior
what I bore and want to give to you
for it is what all of man has made
I simply bundle and deliver
So, more or less, I make a **** ton of mix tapes.
May I recommend the band Miracles of Modern Science? They always make me feel a little better. They write songs about science, sci fi, and social anxiety, among other things. Seriously, I have been semi-obsessed now for a decent two years. I'm bordering on groupie, but I can't...like...drive yet? So I can't properly stalk them. So instead, I'll push them onto you! They kick such ***. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CEqJXiq2nM&list;=UUEhVu4EfQiS83lDqgbR7fVA
