i've decided that my next journal entry is going to be a list of some sort consisting of the saddest songs of all time (at least in my mind). and just so i'm not a total negative nancy, i'm also going to list the best television theme songs of all time. it will be an entry of epic proportions. you'll laugh. you'll cry. you'll fall in and out of love and your head will explode. good times. yes?
and now you should read this.
I will return here one day
and dig up my bones from the clay
I buried nails and strings and hair
and that old tooth I believe was a bear's
I held my hand in the fire
it burned me down to the wires
blood suckers hide beneath my bed
And black fumes of skin so gently bled
I slept with a cat on my breast
slowing my heart stealing my breath
at sunrise the monkeys will fly
and leave me with pennies in my eyes
I will return here one day
and dig up my bones from the clay
I buried nails and string and hair
and that old tooth I believe was a bear's
at sunrise the monkeys will fly
and leave me with pennies in my eyes
