  • Anger

    by Monopatinista on March 29, 2008
    I'm not a particularly angry person, but I think that this is such a poignant expression of anger that I can't help but share it. This is a lyrics site after all! I'll drive a stake through the black of your heart Oh Lord I'll pull down your temples and burn every word Father I'll kill all the angels that showed me the light Jesus I'll drift into darkness and tear out the soul of God. It was written by a man who was angry that God took his daughter away from him. It's the first line that I find most effective.

  • Debt

    by Monopatinista on March 29, 2008
    I am in debt. When I was at school I always imagined that being in debt wouldn't be so bad, that it could never compare to the loneliness and anger I felt every day at school. But I was wrong. There is nothing worse than the earth-shattering realisation that you are now an adult, loaded down with debt, and that if you don't get a job within the next two weeks, you won't ever be able to get a loan, go back to university, or do any of the things you might possibly want to do. How can I get rid of my debt? Well, I could win the lottery. I've never played it though, and I'm not a particularly hopeful person so I'm not about to start. I've toyed with the idea of accumulating money through nefarious means, but I have no idea of how to go about doing that, and there are probably several people more experienced and more able than I am. So the only way for me to make any money is to get a job. My dad said he would pay me to rub down the paintwork he did in the shed today, so I'll probably do that tomorrow or sometime. I have an invitation to a job fair the day after tomorrow so I'll go to that with an air of desperation too. I've never understood before just how soul-crushing it is to be an adult. I wish I could go back to my childhood knowing what I know now, but, alas, it is too late.
