			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Tonight I&#8217;m freakin&#8217; out again<br />
Tonight I&#8217;m thinkin&#8217; so low<br />
All I wanted was a friend all I&#8217;ve got is no one<br />
Tonight I&#8217;ll sleep alone I won&#8217;t sleep at all<br />
My heart isn&#8217;t alive</p>
<p>Right now I&#8217;m sinking further down<br />
Right now I&#8217;m breaking inside<br />
A long drive to see you lie in bed<br />
A long ride wishing for your life<br />
Tonight I&#8217;ll stay with you<br />
And I will get us through</p>
<p>My heart ripped from my chest<br />
Too late I hope not for this<br />
My heart isn&#8217;t alive<br />
My arms carry the weight<br />
Two hands folded yet straight<br />
My arms closed in a prayer for you</p>
<p>Nauseous &#8211; preparing for the worst<br />
Cautious repairing open wounds<br />
Yet somehow believing in a chance<br />
It&#8217;ll turn out to be another test<br />
And you&#8217;ll come back again</p>
<p>You&#8217;re lost in the woods they say to me</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>I just sit there, and let the thoughts flood<br />
And I remind myself: “it&#8217;s all right, it&#8217;s all good, it&#8217;s all love”<br />
It&#8217;s not though. Cuz there&#8217;s a kink in the armor<br />
A pot hole I&#8217;m sinking in, while I think of the drama<br />
So I stand up, I start to pace in my living room<br />
Set my eye to the highway, knowing that I&#8217;ll play chicken soon<br />
There&#8217;s a vanity plate, with my name on it<br />
There&#8217;s a Davy Crocket hat with a Masonic fat cat under it<br />
A musket rifle spitting at my feet<br />
They want me to dance in the middle of the street<br />
And I respect my elders, so I do as I&#8217;m told<br />
But I offset the bell curve when I do it with soul. Losing control.<br />
Guilty feet do have rhythm<br />
They just dance to the wrong theme music to amuse the villain.<br />
Instead of killing, I spare the raccoon<br />
And start filling sand bags as I stare at the moon and let the thoughts flood.<br />
Blessed are those who are damned<br />
When the levee broke, how many choked on the steps of a slow dance?<br />
A staircase to a hug with no hands<br />
Accountability hung out to dry on the line of command<br />
We let the thoughts flood<br />
We remind ourselves it&#8217;s all right, it&#8217;s all good, it&#8217;s all love”<br />
It&#8217;s not though. Cuz there&#8217;s a kink in the armor<br />
A pot hole I&#8217;m sinking in, sharing a drink with my father<br />
It&#8217;s a family affair, the vanity we share<br />
The water line is rising and all we do is stand there.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Seems like a lot of people noticed that today&#8217;s top Trending Topic was &#8230;. #ILoveWalgreens. No. Really. Too bad it isn&#8217;t really organic. Its paid for&#8230; as in its a <a title="(here's a nice explanation of all that)" href="http://blog.itrend.tv/ilovewalgreens-is-trending-on-twitter-worldwi" target="_blank">Promoted Trend</a>. <em><span id="more-2824"></span>(here&#8217;s a nice explanation of all that)</em> And I was certainly intrigued.

<p>**you might be thinking to yourself&#8230; He totally cherry picked these bad apples out a big beautiful bunch. And well&#8230; that&#8217;s only partially true. I do admit to picking what i found to be some of the funnier ones. But its not like I had to spend hours combing through 1000s of other positive tweets to pick off these examples. <a title="Search Twitter, and see" href="https://twitter.com/#!/search?q=%23ilovewalgreens" target="_blank">See for yourself</a>.<br />
in the end, i&#8217;m left to wonder. is it really worth all that money to have more people poke fun at you? especially when &#8211; well, let&#8217;s just say this&#8230; a lot of people still talk about VD. Just because people are talking about some thing, doesn&#8217;t mean its a good thing.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wake up your life<br />
You may never get the chance to make things right<br />
Rather than lie<br />
Take a moment to reflect on what&#8217;s gone by<br />
It&#8217;s a mistake<br />
There&#8217;s no reason I should be so full of guilt<br />
Significant break<br />
So you severed all the ties that we have built</p>
<p>All I know, even though<br />
Tried to give you what was left of me<br />
But it was not enough<br />
Didn&#8217;t think about the rest of me<br />
That it was not enough<br />
Tried my hardest with the best of me<br />
But it was not enough<br />
Tried to give you what was left of me<br />
But it was not enough</p>
<p>All mixed up inside<br />
And it&#8217;s easy to forget what we should be<br />
It&#8217;s useless to hide<br />
I can see to the heart of your insecurity<br />
All of this time<br />
Blaming others for the cause of what we&#8217;ve lost<br />
Nothing sublime<br />
I must overcome no matter what the cost</p>
<p>Please give back what s not yours to have<br />
It&#8217;s the only thing that I&#8217;ve got left<br />
Never was enough to satisfy<br />
And I&#8217;m left empty</p>
<p>All I know, even though<br />
Tried to give you what was left of me<br />
But it was not enough<br />
Didn&#8217;t think about the rest of me<br />
That it was not enough<br />
Tried my hardest with the best of me<br />
But it was not enough<br />
Tried to give you what was left of me<br />
But it was not enough</p>
<p>Tried to give you what was left of me<br />
But it was not enough<br />
Didn&#8217;t think about the rest of me<br />
That it was not enough<br />
Tried my hardest with the best of me<br />
But it was not enough</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve been lying awake at night<br />
I&#8217;ve been hoping that I&#8217;m alright<br />
I&#8217;ve been winding myself too tight<br />
Wondering if i will sleep tonight<br />
Never thought things would get like this<br />
Always hoping that they&#8217;d work out<br />
Still ingesting the wrong amount<br />
Now I seem to be filled with doubt</p>
<p>I cannot stop this ride<br />
I&#8217;m growing cold inside<br />
I shouldn&#8217;t let it slide<br />
Will sickness be mine</p>
<p>This should not be my weight to bear<br />
Go on acting like I don&#8217;t care<br />
Stop this high-I wouldn&#8217;t dare<br />
I have earned and deserve my share<br />
Things like this happen every day<br />
While I&#8217;m in there I feel okay<br />
But you say I should get away<br />
Let me go for just one more day</p>
<p>I cannot stop this ride<br />
I&#8217;m growing cold inside<br />
I shouldn&#8217;t let it slide<br />
Will sickness be mine</p>
<p>Ive got to medicate myself,<br />
I&#8217;m not concerned about my health<br />
It covers up what I&#8217;ve been dealt,<br />
it seems the only way<br />
Ive got to medicate myself, its been the only thing that helped<br />
Must cover up what I have felt, it seems the only way</p>
<p>I cannot stop this ride<br />
I&#8217;m growing cold inside<br />
I shouldn&#8217;t let it slide<br />
Will sickness be mine</p>
<p>Sickness is mine,<br />
sickness is mine,<br />
sickness is mine</p>
