The Smashing Pumpkins - I Of The Mourning

[applesbliss]

radio, play my favorite song
radio, radio
radio, i'm alone
radio
radio, please don't go
radio
i peer through curtains on empty streets
behind a wall of caller i.d.
no one's out there
to hear if i care
about the troubles in the air
as i of the mourning now come
pick up where my thoughts left off
cause i'm home to die on my own
as my radio plays my favorite song
radio, radio
radio, don't you know
radio, radio
radio, i'm alone
i've blown the dust off my guitars
in the attic with the stars
i read your letters to feel better
my tears upon the fading ink
cause i of the mourning now come
pick up where my thoughts left off
cause i'm home to die on my own
as my radio plays my favorite song
radio, radio
radio, i'm alone
radio, radio
radio, please don't go
i sit in the dark light
to wait for ghost night
to bring the past alive
to make a toast to life
cause i have survived
what is it you want
what is it you want to change
what is it you want
what is it you want to change
what is it you want to change
radio, radio, radio, radio
radio, radio, radio, radio
radio, radio, radio, radio
what is it you want
what is it you want to change
what is it you want
what is it you want to change
what is it you want to change

thanks apples

Reading thru SP lyrics always gives me the shivers.
17 seconds of compassion
17 seconds of peace
17 seconds to remember love is the energy
behind which all is created
17 seconds to remember all that is good
17 seconds to forget all your hurt and pain
17 seconds of faith
17 seconds to trust you again
17 seconds of radiance
17 seconds to send a prayer up
17 seconds is all that you need

Adore is one of the most amazing albums ever
Though listening to this song has always made me happy. I can relate to the words more than ever about being home to die and being alone more than ever right now.
It's like when you open your heart and hope up for the first time in years and have it tempered with by illogcal action(On other people's behalf) it hurts. And I'm feeling it hurt for days and days.
And with my situation right now. I truly feel like this place of lonelyness is now my permanent home and there is no other option but to die. Because I've tried so hard to leave this place and the plans have failed more than once. And I don't know what to do.

Apples ~
Don't let the shortcomings and possible emotional selfishness or insensitivity of others come between you and happiness. Your happiness doesn't have to depend on the actions of others. Realize within yourself that you are of value and a person of worth - deserving of much better than those who let you down. (I can attest to that)

If you ever need to talk.......
