It's been quite a ride, said he. It was a dream, and remains one. *snicker*, find more cliches, will you? Was it here, that we ate, laughed, got pissed, got drunk, got sober, wrote exams, wrote papers, sobbed, dreamed, slept, argued, shouted. And does it have to end like this, with the queer, desperate silence of deadlines and definitive statements of intent.
Yeah, gettin' tired (gettin' tired), sick and tired (sick and tired)
Yeah, take a train (take a train), fly by plane (fly by plane)
Yeah, gonna leavin' here, yeah leavin' here
Yeah, leavin' here, ya gonna leave all here now
Baby baby baby, please don't leave here
Been 5 years, a little more, who knew it would play out like this. I am reminded of my first day in this country, a little after 3 in the afternoon on a Monday, wondering at the description of the shrubs outside the main door. From that to this, older, a bit wiser, enough to know there is more to things than meets the eye. I figure why, "underneath it all", people do odd things, and that Tolkien quote, all that is gold does not glitter. Hits you in between the eyes.
In a Wonderland they lie
Dreaming as the days go by,
Dreaming as the summer die
