Another teardrop on the pillowcase.



This is me. I'm feeling pretty depressed lately. Frustrated with work, with love, with life.
My best friends are a bunch of people I don't see very much. I've stopped going out as much. I turn down offers to hang out.
There are few people I can care about. I have to not care about people so much. That's a big problem I have.
It hurts to care about someone SO much and to know its not returned or returned as deeply as I feel.
I find myself without any motivation to do anything. I don't want to go out, I really don't. I don't want to talk to people.
I don't want to go to work. I don't want to look at people or have people look at me. I don't want to meet someone and find a new friend.
I get attached too fast and care too much. James told me that much, something I knew, but really hits hard when someone else points it out.
I was stupid to think I could try dating someone again.
I am stupid to continue talking to someone I feel so much for and will never have.
To be reminded every day of your standing with them, but have these hints, reminders, flirts, memories. Pain.
False hope is the worst. Thinking there are feelings there that aren't.. wow.




I can't imagine all the people that you know
And the places that you go
When the lights are turned down low
And I don't understand all the things you've seen
But I'm slipping in between
You and your big dreams
Its always you
In my big dreams

And you tell me that its over
Wake up lying in a patch of four leaf clovers
And you're restless, and I'm naked
You've gotta get out
You can't stand to see me shakin'
No
Could you let me go?
I didn't think so

And you don't wanna be here in the future
So you say the present's just a pleasent interruption to the past
And you don't wanna look much closer
Cause you're afraid to find out all this hope
You had sent into the sky by now had crashed
And it did
Because of me

And then you bring me home
Afraid to find out that you're alone
And I'm sleeping in your living room
But we don't have much room to live

I had these dreams that I learned to play guitar
Maybe cross the country
Become a rock star
And there was hope in me that I could take you there
But dammit you're so young
Well I don't think I care
And if I hurt you
Then I'm sorry
Please don't think that this was easy

And then you'd bring me home
Cause we both know what its like to be alone
And I'm dreaming in your living room
But we don't have much room to live

And Konstantine is walking down the stairs
Doesn't she look good
Standing in her underwear
And I was thinkin'
What I was thinkin'
We've been drinking and it doesn't get me anywhere

My Konstantine came walking down the stairs
And all that I could do is touch her long, blonde hair
And I've been thinkin'
But it hurts me thinking that these nights
When we were drinking no they never got us anywhere
No

This is because I can spell confusion with a 'k'
And I can like it
Its to dying in another's arms and why I had to try it
Its to Jimmy Eat World and those nights in my car
When the first star you see may not be a star
I'm not your star
Isn't that what you said
What you thought this song meant

And if this is what it takes
Just to lie with my mistakes
And live with what I did to you
And all the hell I put you through
I always catch the clock
Its 11:11
And now you want to talk
Its not hard to dream
You'll always be my Konstantine

Konstantine, they'll never hurt you like I do
No they'll never hurt you like I do
No, no, no no no no no no

This is to a girl who got into my head
With all the pretty things she did
Hey
You know
You keep me up in bed
This is to a girl who got into my head
With all these fucked up things I did
Hey
Maybe
Baby you could keep me up in bed
My Konstantine
You spin around me like a dream we played out on this movie screen
And I said
Did you know I missed you?
Did you know I missed you?
Did you know I missed you?
Did you know I missed you?
Did you know I missed you?
Did you know I missed you?
Did you know I missed you?
I miss you

And then you bring me home
And we'll go to sleep, but this time, not alone, no no
And you'll kiss me in your living room
I know
I know you miss me in your living room
Cause these nights I think maybe that I'll miss you in my living room
We don't have much room
I said does anybody need that room?
Because we all need a little more room
To live

My Konstantine
