Some things will never change

If you're going out with someone new..
I'm going out with someone too
I won't be sorry for me
I'm getting drunk
But I'd much rather be..
Somewhere with you
laughing loud on a carnival ride, yeah
Driving around on a Saturday night
You made fun of me for singing my song
Got a hotel room just to turn you on
You said, pick me up at 3am
You're fighting with your mom again
And I'd go, I'd go, I'd go...
Somewhere with you

I won't sit, outside your house
And wait for the lights to go out
Call up an ex, to rescue me
Climb in their bed,
But I'd much rather sleep
Somewhere with you..
Like we did on the beach last summer
When the rain came down and we took cover
Down in your car out by the pier
You laid me down, whispered in my ear..
I hate my life, hold on to me
Ah, if you ever decide to leave, then I'll go, I'll go, I'll go..

I can go out every night of the week
Can go home with anybody I meet
But it's just a temporary high
Cause when I close my eyes..
I'm somewhere with you
somewhere with you

If you see me out on the town
And it looks like, I'm burning it down
You won't ask and I won't say
But in my heart, I'm always...
Somewhere with you

Falling short



Seemingly, more than months have passed. Feeling out of touch with this ever-so-dramatic life style of mine has me house-ridden with no escape plan- besides a couple sultry nights a week where I can forget about which inexplicit events have taken place thirty minutes into the suburbs. It is not a lack of admiration, nor feeling of complacency for this beautiful acreage, but rather a lack of emotional content, or displacement; I can't seem to choose which fits more. When I want to engage in conversation, I'm berated for wanting too much besides television and carpooling, so in return, when I feel like keeping my mouth shut, I'm yelled at for having a piss-poor attitude and my incongeniality. Floodgates opening again, I feel lonely and misplaced-replaced by something I cannot grasp, longing for that one urge- that one nights escape to pull me away from all reality. I see him walking upstairs, not even thinking to say goodnight. I see him luxuriating in thousands of other words as he usually partakes in with everyone but me. And I'm supposed to settle for a car ride's worth of chatter. For Romeo, I wish, but the land is becoming barren as I try to meander my way around this desert- looking for every drop of drink.
