R.I.P.(rest in pieces)


Today is the first day of the rest of my life! (So frigging cliche, aint it?) But you know its kinda true, meaning the state in that i'm right now.


I'm standing at the crossroads again!(MY fav place, it seems!) Trying to figure out which way to go.


And wherever, however, whatever it is; I still got this little spark of a Hope.


But nothing's going right at the point of this moment.


I'm f$3ked up, screwed up and in deep shit.


I 've got this impending sense of doom,


Everytime i die!


everytme i'm falling down,


(all alone) i fall to fragments.


to the dear unfaithful departed

I was something

you just have to had.

All and me were screwing

but you wanted me so bad.

You needed to mould me!

You needed to touch and see!

Plastic on my skin,

Rubber in my soul!

Your hands were so cold

Your moves were all foul;

(And) When you have had your fill,

I went out through the window sill.

You put me on hold,

turning me in to vices and sin.

(But) what's the sum of the total,

the story and the moral?

What's the price (that u told me) you gotta pay?

All the credits from yesterday!

(Cum on Dear) you bought and traded me

and you wanted it all nnice.

But Girl, you failed to see,

I'm the one now, paying the price.

Mushy Shit

Love is wishing upon Aeroplanes in the midnite sky knowing fully well it doesnt work. Love is trying to hate you and realizing i just can't. Love is the flame of our hearts i kept on burning when it s fading out. Love is the smile of my lips whenever i mentioned your name, its the look in my eyes whenever i picture you. Love is holding onto you when i should have left. Loves is seeing through the phoney that you are and not noticing it. Loveis the lies i told myself that everything's alrite. Love is losing my heart to you and you losing it. Love is getting my heart broken when you wanted out just because you simply wanted to. Love is again the same lie i told you that its all alrite when it was killing me. Love is the emptiness in my heart right now.

Human, the Killers always kill me.


Another album , another killer song from The Killers, Human was released as the first single from the band's third studio album Day & Age.








Leaked on2 YouTube (www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6r4KT8-VX0) on September 21, 2008, a day before it was scheduled to be played for the first time on Zane Lowe's show on BBC Radio, Human started receiving airplay on September 22, 2008, with a digital release on September 30, 2008.
The song is a mark of a return to Flower`s New Wave roots and is extremely dance-able, which will just add some more new fans and make it to mainstream charts.



Well talking about charts( which matters none whatsoever 2me at all) and like i said, it became the third killers' number to enter the top 5 of the UK singles chart, (peaking at #3).The song was released on a 7-inch picture disc throughout the world in various dates in November, with a B-side entitled "A Crippling Blow" and has already sold more than a million copies.

I gotto see the video first and was quite relieved 2 see that they had taken a bath or something (remember Sam`s Town)and shaved some of their dirty psychedelic furs to be more human.Well the video is directed by Daniel Drysdale and filmed at Goblin Valley State Park, Utah.
And talking about the lyrics, there has been considerable confusion and debate over the line "Are we human or are we dancer?" in the song's chorus. Many have incorrectly heard "denser" instead of "dancer", a change which significantly alters the interpretation of the song's meaning. On the band's official website, the biography section states that Flowers is singing "Are we human, or are we dancer?" and also says that the lyrics were inspired by a disparaging comment made by Hunter S.Thompson creator of Gonzo journalism and Fear and Laothing in Las Vegas fame. He is also infamous for his use of mind-altering substances, firearms and iconoclastic contempt for authority.To quote some mainstream mags, Entertainment Weekly's Pop Watch section called this line the "silliest lyrics of the week". They were puzzled by the interpretation, stating "most dancers are generally human".Ganz with Rolling Stone called the line "classic Killers' nonsense.
But them in an interview with Rolling Stone, Flowers himself had to say that he was irritated over the confusion: "It's supposed to be a dance song,(the beat) goes with the chorus...If you can't put that together, you're an idiot. I just don't get why there's a confusion about it."
Lyrics.....
I did my best to notice
When the call came down the line
Up to the platform of surrender
I was brought but I was kind
And sometimes I get nervous
When I see an open door
Close your eyes
Clear your heart...
Cut the cord

Are we human?
Or are we dancer?
My sign is vital
My hands are cold
And I'm on my knees
Looking for the answer
Are we human?
Or are we dancer?

Pay my respects to grace and virtue
Send my condolences to good
Give my regards to soul and romance,
They always did the best they could
And so long to devotion
You taught me everything I know
Wave goodbye
Wish me well..
You've gotta let me go
By the way, i tried to crack the chords and i guess it is just a simple A# with a repeated D# and F riff, which is the way i play synthesizer songs on the guitar coz i don't own any Keys.
