elementof_risk01. put your music player on shuffle
02. the first lines of twenty songs = a poem
03. the first line of the twenty-first song is the title.
I know how to hurt
Perfect by nature
I know your life is empty
Is it safe to look within
I had a roof overhead
I got you crawling up a mountain
You look so fine
They read you Cinderella
Watch the sunrise, say your goodbyes
There's blood in my mouth 'cause I've been biting my tongue all week
You feel like a candle in a hurricane
It's that disease of the age
I drift away to a place, another kind of life
No one knows what it's like to be the bad man
I would die for you
The world was on fire, and no one could save me but you
You're in my arms, and all the world is calm
Remember all the times that we used to play?
Storybook endings, fairy tales coming true
You let me violate you, you let me desecrate you
Any shame I might have felt for lines 8, 17 and 19 I feel are saved by line 20. Not that I'm sure the thing makes a bit of sense, random as it is. Though I suppose one can imply some sort of theme--besides the fact that I seem to have an obsession with Garbage.
