I've been there...done that... Been skinny, been fat... Been "hot" looking, on a saturday night Been "ugly" when there was just too much light. That ole "bar-scene"... The drink, cigarettes, what'd it all mean? At the time just a way of Somehow rising above Inner insecurities And wanting to please Myself and the others With similar druthers But what the hell for?... It now seems such a bore To have spent so much time Searching something sublime In a darkened neon place Where they'd dance, get shit-faced In hopes for some "feeling" Utopian "healing"... It was so long ago Do I miss it? No.Birth sign: Pisces
