I'm STILL a self confessing, self professing know-it-all, or so I think!

But I am not your savior I am just as fucked as you

I know your life is empty
And you hate to face this world alone
So you’re searching for an angel
Someone who can make you whole
I cannot save you
I can’t even save myself
So just save yourself
I know that you’ve been damaged
Your soul has suffered such abuse
But I am not your savior
I am just as fucked as you
I am just as fucked as you
I cannot save you
I can’t even save myself
So just save yourself

Please don’t take pity on me
Please don’t take pity on me
Please don’t take pity on me
Please don’t take pity on me

My life has been a nightmare
My soul is fractured to the bone
And if I must be lonely, I think I’d rather be alone
I think I’d rather be alone

I wanna taste love and pain

Don’t wanna live as an untold story
Rather go out in a blaze of glory
I can’t hear you, I don’t fear you
I’ll live now ’cause the bad die last
Dodging bullets with your broken past
I can’t hear you, I don’t fear you now
Wrapped in your regret
What a waste of blood and sweat
Oh oh oh
I wanna taste love and pain
Wanna feel pride and shame
I don’t wanna take my time
Don’t wanna waste one line
I wanna live better days
Never look back and say
Could have been me
It could have been me
Yeah
Don’t wanna live as an unsung melody
I’d rather listen to the silence telling me
I can’t hear you, I won’t fear you
Don’t wanna wake up on Monday morning
The thought of work is getting my skin crawling
I can’t fear you, I don’t hear you now
Wrapped in your regret
What a waste of blood and sweat
Oh oh oh

Make up your mind and I’ll make up mine. Don’t worry about me, I’ll be fine!

Those words that you said to me, why wasn’t I listening?

and do this for the last time, and do this for the last time, and do this for the last time

Be Yourself

… Is All That You Can Do. To be yourself is all that you can do!

Been trying hard to catch-up on things that needed catching-up on! Accomplished plenty in a short amount of time so am really chuffed – voted in the Ontario election, went for a run too – ok, only 2.5K … but at this point I’ll happily take it, and focus on its positiveness … is all that I can do!

sausages & chickpeas!

This is another one of my famous throw everything in the pot and hope for the best type of creations!! I bought sausages (hot Italian), and used whatever else I had in the house. I’ve been on a chickpeas roll of late, incorporating them in many meals I’ve been making … talk about awesome and healthy!! I grilled the sausages, then combined them w/ sautéed sweet onions, red peppers and kale. After a few minutes of sizzling ‘n flippin’ on high heat, I deglazed w/ white wine, added a bit of chicken broth, tossing in the chick peas, and bringing everthing to a simmer before placing in the oven to finish! Served w/ the obligatory/proverbial Italian crusty peasant loaf to sop up all the goodness, the best cheese you have in the icebox, a glass (or bottle, lol) of red vino, the lights dimmed creating the perfect ambience, Sting, or maybe Annie Lennox, playing softly in the background setting the mood… and yep, dansyermothereffinguncle

mungia mungia! farmer style mungia mungia …

Who’s the one that makes you happy?

Or maybe, who’s the one always on your mind?
And who is the reason you’re living for?
Who’s the reason for your smile?

Everyone needs somebody.
And you know, everybody needs someone.
Well and yes it’s true!
Everybody needs a special kind of love.
And you’re the only one I’m thinking of.
You mean the world to me.
You are my only!

It’s not whatcha got it’s what you give.
It ain’t the life you choose it’s the life you live.
It’s only what you give, only what you give, only what you give,
It’s not whatcha got, a but the life you live.
It’s the life you live.

Going crazy outta my head, going crazy,
Outta my head.

I once had a friend

They found her in a car
A hose to the window
And the motor running hot
Seems she couldn’t take it
The rhetoric of life
Someone found her naked
With a note right by her side
By her side oh by her side
She can’t take it back
Neither can I
No neither can I
Mommy and daddy I’ve borrowed the car to sleep on the floor
I’m sorry so much for bringing my own living hell to your door
Thanks for all the flowers at the ringside seat
Thanks for nothing everyone the prayers were too weak
This is the way it happens all the time
Can you pay attention to everyone that cries
Remember you can make it through
And make it new
Only if you try
You better try
Cause you can’t take it back
Neither can I
No neither can I
Mommy and daddy I’ve borrowed the car to sleep on the floor
I’m sorry so much for bringing my own living hell to your door
But things had gotten heavy everything was deep
Nothing really mattered
So I just went to sleep
I just went to sleep
And I can’t take it back
I won’t try
I won’t try
I won’t try
I won’t try
I won’t try

live for tomorrow

’cause tomorrow we’ll survive another day
live for tomorrow
’cause tomorrow will forget about today
live for tomorrow
’cause tomorrow will forgive us all our mistakes

but we can get there if we try

it seems there’s something deep inside of you
and I can tell that you’ve been lonely
and you’ve had hard times too

cause we believed for nothing it seems
and now it’s shattered all apart and like a broken heart
it’s the end it’s a start

I don’t wanna talk about that anymore when there’s nothing going on and something should be done

and I wanna live if I have to die
if I have to die if I have to die
