   Jack's Obsession
TVFOB is buzzing in my skull
Will it let me be? I cannot tell
There are so many things I cannot grasp
When I think I've got it, and then at last
Through my fingers it does slip
Like a snowflake that's in Hiei's grip

Something's here I'm not quite getting
Though I try, I keep forgetting
Like a song so long since past
Here in an instant, gone in a flash
What does it mean?
What does it mean?

In this little instrument
A secret's waiting to be sent
These notes and rhythms confuse me so
Confound it all, I love it though

Simple objects, nothing more
But something's hidden through a door
Though I do not have the key
Something's there I cannot see
What does it mean?
What does it mean?
What does it mean?
Hmm...

I've played these music books so many times
I know the beats and I know the rhymes
I know the music all by heart
My skull's so full, it's tearing me apart
As often as I've played them, something's wrong
So hard to put my finger on

Or perhaps it's really not as deep
As I've been led to think
Am I trying much too hard?
Of course! I've been too close to see
The answer's right in front of me
Right in front of me

It's simple really, very clear
Like music drifting in the air
Invisible, but everywhere
Just because I cannot see it
Doesn't mean I can't believe it

You know, I think this marching thing
It's not as tricky as it seems
And why should they have all the fun?
It should belong to anyone

Not anyone, in fact, but me
Why, I could be the band leader
And there's no reason I can find
I couldn't handle marching time

I bet I could improve it too
And that's exactly what I'll do
Hee, hee, hee
Eureka! I've got it

see how obsessed i became with Nightmare Before Xmas while on vacation? that was the theme all over Disneyland. i got a soundtrack and two shirts of Xmas.
but yes, TVFOB is tomorrow. oh man. today, we did some comlete run throughs of our 5 songs (but all together with how they were arranged, they are 3) and practiced getting on and off the field, for the school we're going to is different from ours. so we had to turn around and make backfield frontfield and it was all very different and made me uneasy, caused it seemed like we were awfully close to the front aka back side line and it didn't feel right. but apparently, we were. go figure.
Hiei: and as he would probably tell you, you'll do fine
AG: and as i would tell him, it doesn't quell my fears at all TT.TT
Hiei: that's cause you're a hopeless case
AG: a tired, hopless case. i logged in to Deviant Art to see if i could upload this huge ass moving GIF i have, but it didn't work there, either. i think the code broke, cause it won't move anymore. but when i logged in, i had 100 messages! i was like: O.o holy shit! and they'd all been sent in June down! i thought i'd visited after then, but apparently not
and savani, if you get on here and read this, i just finished the Fushigi Yugi episode disk today! woo, i'm so proud of myself! of you're 4 DVDs and having them for a month, i have finished 1!
and soon, i will have my life back from band again! only to have it taken away for pep band and parades! -.- woo.
Hiei: *laughs at AG's misfortune*
AG: yeah, yeah, laugh it up han-Jaganshi. i've heard you sing in both languages
Hiei: *eyes widen* you wouldn't
AG: *raises eyebrow* try me
Hiei: *flits off*
AG: That's what i thought. now where was i? huh, i guess that's it

My dearest friend, if you don't mind
I'd like to join you by your side
Where we can gaze into the stars

And sit together, like friends forever
For it is plain as anyone can see
We're simply meant to be...
