Thanks
For those who commented. I really don't like the thought of sympathy or needing someone, but I guess it's OK to give in once in a while. So thank you Angel Zakuro, for praying for her. And for trying to explain what that thing was on the video.... maybe we should just refer to it as a What The Hell species XD

Thank you CrystalFlute, because your comments make so much sense. I find similarites between us on parenthood. I'd prefer being an aunt.

Thanks for the rest of you that commented or just read for the hell of it. Hope I'm not too overwhemling.

On other things, right now I'm just chilling, reading new books I got for $5 and listening to some more music. I've ventured into the more extreme realm of music, listening to acts such as Nominon, Pessimist, Apocalyptic Visions, and more. Enthraller and Arabyss so far are very enjoyable to me. One of my favorites is Blood Stain Child, who expertly combine melodeth with trance and electronic music. It's hard to bring such two antithetical genres together. And they're from Japan. The only complaint I have of them is that their English isn't too great... I think they'd do better if they spoke in a language they're fluent in. It's so funny when there's bands that are from other countries that speak English better than native speakers.

Anyways, they're pretty cool, check out their Myspace page: http://www.myspace.com/bloodstainchildmusic

I've also been listening to Tegan and Sara, quite different from the former lol. Call It Off and Hell so far are my favorites.

I've also wrote some lyrics this week. I'll share one of my more refined and gruesome lyrics that regards certain thoughts to something. It's extremely personal, so I find it a treat to be able to post it here. Tell me what you think, how you interpret its meaning. Brownie points for guessing what I thought about it.

Of Pearls And Swine

This pestilence is growing
Feeding on your decayed
The fire’s growing stronger
It’s burning your fallacious towers and mendacious mortar bridges
Arrogance and greed serenade each other
Spewing your masturbatory creed on the callow
And watch them get off on your disease

Abnegate patterns found in human nature
Preaching order but reeking of hypocrisy
Your lust is the only thing you know
A foundation brought up on ivory lies
Specially wrapped in satin thorns

[Chorus:]
Innocence spoiled by sordid desire
A virtue tainted by excessive need
In a land where pigs wear pearl necklaces
Where did we go wrong?

I hear the children scream
A thousand baring tattered wings held up by weak seams
In a hollow nightmare where dreams are shattered, forbidden
Purgatory becomes reality
These ghosts roam freely on our planet

Eternal silence, the only voice of God
Reaching for unrequited answers in this bleak sky
How’ve we failed to breach perjury
When they hand out promises laced with poison
And take that tablet of strychnine in your mouth

[Chorus]

Thine eyes shine despair
Your feeble days are numbered
Can you hear the children scream?
They voice their oppression and helplessness
Bound in a web weaved by hopelessness

[Chorus twice, the second one revised:]

Innocence spoiled by sordid desire
A virtue tainted by excessive need
In a land where the depraved prey on the weak
Can you hear their cries?


Have we thrown pearls before swine....?

I've already wrote the guitar parts for it. I wish I had a recorder, there's a nice portable one that I've had my eye on for a while. It has a drum machine and I could do the vocals and all I'll need is a friend to fill in the bass. Unfortunately I don't have enough money for it. I need to get a job.

Cheers.
