no, not nearly enough

meaningful lyrics constantly flow between my ears

reminding me that i only pretend to be that full of insight

i am the life of the party

desperately sick of her image

being funny doesn't cut it anymore

(being serious never did)

this is what waisting a mind can do

leave you shattered

searching

for a meaning in a cracked soul

(that whistles when the wind blows)

i don't want this to be living

passing between moments of

sainthood and the devil made me do it

i'd like to say all the right words

that they come to me like magic

because somehow, i am a magnet for attractive imagery

i am about as hopeful as dr. kavorkian

wishing for a different moment in time

to stash me away and make me something whole

i'd fill these cracks with applesauce

it drips... but it'll do

Author's Notes/Comments: 

don't ask me why applesause is a part of this... it just is. it was origionaly supposed to be called "i try to hard to be something i'm not" but a friend read it and said no, not nearly enough. so there ya go.
