i'm busy making a hole in the ozone layer...


hey remember those ratty old shoes shoes everyone wanted me to stop wearing?
you can't really tell, but they're right in the middle of that fire.
more on this later.

treehouse mix 2, if not, winter

we can't stop this now,
it's gone too far.
and now we're back to where we started,
and i can't pick myself up off the ground.
i need some help to carry on,
to find a place where i belong,
and figure out how to turn this ship around.

today we'll build a brigade with all these things we know,
bound to lead us home.
won't you take my hand,
and pick me up when i can't stand.
we've come too far to begin again,
one thing i promise we'll stay until the end.
until the end.

we keep holding on to what is ours,
even if it isn't much,
cuz we don't seem to care or mind.
we will let go of our dreams,
it's an infinite align,
with no boundaries on each side.

don't let go.
don't let go of me.

and pick me up when i can't stand.

If your intentions are pure,

i'm seeking a friend for the end of the world."

call me crazy, but i think i'm going to write a thesis paper, or an essay, or something. not because i have to, but because i have a few really awesome, (at least i think so), ideas and concepts about music and the mind that i really want to get down in writing. here's a start, but it's all you get for now. maybe i'll continue to write, and elaborate on this subject: eventually having a good many organized pages of thoughts, or maybe i'll just leave it at this one quote:

"Every emotional state of mind, whether mentally overwhelming or draining, is capable of influencing the mind and producing, whether in practice or performance, musical excellence. However, a true musician isn't tossed around like a canoe by the waves of inevitable emotions that flood the mind, but makes a conscious transformation of emotional energy to musical energy, which transcends the constricting walls of emotion, and allows for a more pure musical interpretation."

i need feedback.
