Some summers in the evening after 6 or so
I walk on down the hill
And maybe buy a beer
I think about my friends
Sometimes I wish they lived out here
But they wouldn't dig this town
No they wouldn't dig this town
Try not to think about it, Alice Childress
Try not to think about it anymore
Try not to think about it, Alice Childress
Anymore, no not anymore
Alice, the world is full of ugly things
That you can't change
Pretend it's not that way
It's my idea of faith
You can blow it off
And say there's good in nearly everyone
Just give them all a chance
Now let's give them all a chance
No it didn't work out
No it didn't work out the way we thought it would
No it didn't work out
An arranged marriage is not so good
Thank God it's you
Y'know, your timing is impeccable
I'm not fooling you
I don't know what to do
Some dude just knocked me cold
And left me on the sidewalk
Took everything I had
Everything I had
*******
i could never pretend it's not that way. that there aren't ugly things, i could never hold that much faith in humankind again. i wish i could, but how the fuck do you trust and have faith in people when it's the same people that are fucking up your life? i'm becoming more and more defensive with time because i trust less and less with each passing moment. example: whenever my mom tries to talk to me i snap and start shouting at her because i think i've done something wrong and she's about to bite my head off. and i was never like this in south africa. granted, my friends weren't as loyal as the ones i have here, but then the people in south africa weren't total fuck ups! goddamn, i'm just rambling. it makes sense to me. fuck off.
