Cover art for The Tension and the Terror lyrics by Straylight Run

holy crap this is exactly how i feel bout my best friend right now. i told her how i felt a few months ago. and there has been a lot of tension bt us. one minute things are great the next theres terror. and all the "possibilites and promise" weigh on me bc i know we could have something if wed just let ourselves. the summer time here refers to the fact that in the summer new things happen one should free themelves and try things they might not ordinarily. and about tkaing everything with a certainty. she does just that. she seems like she very much has her life figured out and knows her purpose. i can only envy that. and about devastating. this girl does that to me. and i cant explain to her how she does. and about the keeping me guessing. like i hate it while it happens but then its something i want when its not there god ive blown away she needs to hear this song. or maybe my band can cover it and ill sing. i normally play back up singer/rhytm guitar like john did in TBS. wow great grrrreat tune. gotta love john's sister singing backup
