Girls-Hellhole Ratrace

I’m sick and tired of the way that I feel
I’m sick of dreaming and it’s never for real
I’m all alone with my deep thoughts
I’m all alone with my heartache and my good intentions

I work to eat and drink and sleep just to live
Feels like I’m never getting back what I give
I’ve got a sad song in my sweet heart
And all I really ever need is some love and attention 

And I don’t want to cry my whole life through
I want to do some laughing too
So come on, come on, come on, come on, laugh with me 
And I don’t want to die without shaking up a leg or two
Yeah, I want to do some dancing too
So come on, come on, come on, come on, dance with me

Sometimes you’ve just got to make it for yourself
Sometimes, sugar, it just takes someone else
Sometimes you’ve just got to make it for yourself
Sometimes, baby, you just need someone else

And I don’t want to cry my whole life through
I want to do some laughing too
So come on, come on, come on, come on, laugh with me
And I don’t want to die without shaking up a leg or two
Yeah, I want to do some dancing too
So come on, come on, come on, come on, dance with me

Sometimes you’ve just got to make it for yourself
Sometimes, honey, it just takes someone else
Sometimes you’ve just got to make it for yourself
Sometimes, darling, you just need someone else

And I don’t want to cry my whole life through
I want to do some laughing too
So come on, come on, come on, come on, laugh with me
And I don’t want to die without shaking up a leg or two
Yeah, I want to do some dancing too
So come on, come on, come on, come on, dance with me

David Thomas Broughton - River lay

A river of love flows through the valley of my heart, and it floods my guts with fear.

Although the words are soft and clear, they can never bridge the widening divide, despite the generosity of your allies, but like the reeds they dampen the blow.

And you can waste your life on the banks of the river lay, but it won’t mean much if you don’t have something to say.

And you can walk with the others but you wont go the same way

Just a regular chat

Just a regular chat

"I stopped taking drugs [in 1983]. There were a lot of things that led up to it. One thing was that a lover died. An ex of mine died in a car wreck and I was really trashed when I found out about it and I couldn’t cry. I woke up the next morning and I said, “That’s it,” so I quit then. It was horrible. A bunch of people died around that time and she was one of them. I wrote a song about her-that was when I still did pull from autobiographical material. I didn’t really have my voice until after that. Also, AIDS had landed and I was terrified. I was very scared, just as everyone was in the ’80s. It was really hard to be sexually active and to sleep with men and with women and not feel you had a responsibility in terms of having safe sex. And this was the Reagan years, where they were talking about internment camps for HIV-positive people and people with AIDS. The straight community was freaking out because, in their minds, this was a “gay” disease, and bisexual people were passing AIDS from the gay community to the straight community."

Michael Stipe - Interview Magazine

This is maybe the single most revealing interview with Michael Stipe I’ve ever read. I strongly recommend reading it in full — there’s a lot to chew on, both in him discussing his past and what he’s trying to do with R.E.M. these days.
