Conversation at High Line Elevated Park

This is how it works
You’re young until you’re not
You love until you don’t
You try until you can’t
You laugh until you cry
You cry until you laugh
And everyone must breathe
Until their dying breath
No, this is how it works
You peer inside yourself
You take the things you like
And try to love the things you took
And then you take that love you made
And stick it into some
Someone else’s heart
Pumping someone else’s blood
Everyone smiles with that invisible gun to their head.
—Chuck Palahniuk
I think the best compliment is when someone who generally hates everyone and everything, decides that they like you.
True faith (song) - Flunk version
I used to think that the day would never come
I’d see the light in the shade of the morning sun
My morning sun is the drug that brings me near
To the childhood I lost replaced by fear
I used to think that the day would never come
That my life would depend on the morning sun
Day Old Hate
“This song is about how people are fake and full of hate and rudeness and how people put on a act to fit and be apart of life but we need to stop pretending and putting on this act we do and people in society ”
“Seems to be about an abrupt and bitter end to the relationship. ‘Day old hate’ is obviously talking about this instant resentment that has occured ‘Blank stares and empty threats’ depicts the standoff situation.”
” “I believe this song is about a guy falling in love with a girl. But the girl just pretends to love him back when it suits her. The guy gets sick of it and tries to move on, only to find that it’s the only real thing he has going for him.
When he sees that, he feels weak and worthless. And now that it’s over, all he wants is to go back to what he had with the girl, even though he knows it’s a lie.” “
So let’s face it, this was never what you wanted
But I know it’s fun to pretend
Now blank stares and empty threats
Are all I have
They’re all I have…
So drown me if you can
Or we could just have conversation
and I fall, I fall, I falter.
But I found you before I drift away
Now you still speak of day old hate
Though your whole world has gone up into flames
And isn’t it great to find that you’re really worth nothing
And how safe it is to feel safe
So drown me if you can
Or we could just have conversation
And I fall, I fall, I falter.
But I found you before I drift away
The things we do just to stay alive
The things we do just to stay alive
The things we do just to stay alive
The things we do just to keep ourselves alive.
