Writer's Block: A rose by any other name ...

How did you choose your LiveJournal username? Is there an interesting story behind it?

I was inspired by a Dashboard Confessional song called Carry This Picture. The lyric is actually, "and color the coast with your smile, it's the most genuine thing I've ever seen." Now, you're thinking, "But your username isn't color_the_coast, it's color_the_city." Well yeah, it is. I did that because colorthecoast was taken. So that's how it all came about. :)

don't let me down.

I'm in love for the first time
don't you know it's gonna last?
it's a love that lasts forever,
it's a love that has no past

don't let me down, don't let me down
don't let me down, don't let me down

not a pretty girl

I am not an angry girl, but it seems like I've got everyone fooled.

thinking of you

3001875363_87149163a8.jpg picture by briittanybubblegumm
you're like an indian summer in the middle of winter. like a hard candy with a surprise center. how do I get better once I've had the best? you said there's tons of fish in the water, so the waters I will test. he kissed my lips, I taste your mouth. he pulled me in, I was disgusted with myself. oh, won't you bust in the door and take me away. oh, no more mistakes. cause in your eyes, I'd like to stay.

impressions

I'm beginning to wonder what kind of impression I'm giving off these days. the guys I attract aren't interested in me, as much as they are my body. which is completely beyond me. I think I'm a rather interesting person. I find my mind to be much more beautiful than my body could ever be, but guys do not see it that way. and I find myself really yearning for affection of any kind lately, which puts me in a very vulnerable position. "don't compromise yourself. it's all you've got." -- janis joplin. I need to remember that. before I do something I regret. I don't know haha. at least there are a couple people out there and they know who they are, when they talk to me, they're not carefully picking the right words to say that will convince me to let them in my pants. thank you. really. your friendship actually means more than I let on.


he said ani, "you've gotten tough."
'cause my tone was curt
yeah, and when I'm approached in a dark alley, I don't lift my skirt
in this city,
self-preservation is a full time occupation
I'm determined to survive on this shore
you know I don't avert my eyes anymore
in a man's world, I am a woman by birth
and after nineteen times around I have found
they will stop at nothing once they know what you are worth
talk to me now
I played the powerless in too many dark scenes
and I was blessed with a birth and a death
and I guess I just want some say in between
don't you understand,
in the day to day and the face to face
I have to act just as strong as I can
just to preserve a place
where I can be who I am
so if you still know how,

talk to me now

lately,

I am so consumed.
0000.jpg picture by briittanybubblegumm

I found God 
on the corner of first & amistad
where the west was all but won
all along, smoking his last cigarette
I said, "where you been?"
He said, "ask anything."

where were you,
when everything was falling apart?
all my days
were spent by the telephone
it never rang
& all I needed was a call
it never came
to the corner of first & amistad

lost & insecure
you found me, you found me
lying on the floor
surrounded, surrounded
why'd you have to wait?
where were you, where were you?
just a little late
you found me, you found me

breathe

none of us thought it was gonna end this way
people are people and sometimes it doesn't work out
but it's killing me to see you go after all this time
and we know it's never simple, never easy
never a clean break, no one here to save me
you're the only thing I know like the back of my hand
I can't breathe without you, but I'm gonna have too
it's 2 am, feel like I just lost a friend


I need to stop posting my feelings on the internet.



tomorrow is gonna be weird without you. haha. the entire time I always imagined it was going to be you who was going to be sitting next to me. it makes me sad that you won't be, not even as a friend.

you're the only one

well, I saw you with your hands above your head
spinning around, trying not to look down
but you did & you fell hard on the ground
then you stumbled around for a good 10 minutes
& I said I'd never seen anyone look so dumb before
& you laughed and said I still know how to turn you on though

you're the only one who
drives me kicking & screaming through fast dreams
you're the only one who
knows exactly what I mean

& I probably forgot to tell you this
like that time when I forgot to tell you about the scar
remember how uncomfortable that made you feel?
see, you're not what I expected
but you're the only one who knows how to handle me
& you're such a great kisser and I know that you agree

you're the only one who
drives me kicking & screaming through fast dreams
you're the only one who
knows exactly what I mean

I hope you can forgive me for that time
when I put my hand between your legs
& said it was small
cause it's really not at all
I guess there's just a part of me that likes to bring you down
just to keep you around
cause the day you realize how amazing you are
you're gonna leave me


you're the only one who
holds my hair back when I'm drunk & get sick
you're the only one who
knows exactly what I mean

you're the only one who
drives me kicking & screaming through fast dreams
you're the only one who
knows exactly what I mean

exactly what I mean

well, I saw you with your hands above your head
spinning around, trying not to look down
but you did & you fell, hard on the ground

little wonders

let it go, let it roll right off your shoulder
don't you know the hardest part is over?
let it in, let your clarity define you
in the end, we will only just remember how it feels

our lives are made in these small hours
these little wonders, these twists & turns of fate
time falls away, but these small hours,
these small hours still remain

let it slide, let your troubles fall behind you
let it shine, until you feel it all around you
& I don't mind if it's me you need to turn to
we'll get by, it's the heart that really matters in the end

our lives are made in these small hours
these little wonders, these twists & turns of fate
time falls away, but these small hours,
these small hours still remain

all of my regret will wash away some how
but I can not forget the way I feel right now


remember that I love you.

it's cool, we can still be friends.

yeah, you still kiss me, but it's just on the cheek
yeah, you still kiss me, but it's just on the cheek
yeah, you still kiss me sometimes, but it's just on the cheek
you pull away so easily

& I still call you, but I get your machine
yeah I still call you, but I get your machine
& if I'm lucky I guess, It's your roommate answering
but you're at the bar, or at gene's

& we go to dinner, but you won't hold my hand
we sit at the same table, we don't play with our feet
yeah we still go to dinner sometimes, but we don't sneak a kiss
when the waitress turns around

& we still watch movies, but we don't share the couch
yeah we still rent movies, but we don't share the couch
yeah, we still watch movies sometimes, but you don't lay in my lap
the plot is slow, take a nap

& you even stay over, but now we stay in our clothes
yeah, you'll even sleep over, but now we stay in our clothes
yeah, you even sleep over sometimes, but we stay in our clothes
I'm only there so that you're not alone

& you say that I hurt you, in a voice like a prayer
yeah, you say that I've hurt you, and your voice is like a prayer
yeah, well maybe I hurt you sometimes, but let's contrast and compare
lift up your shirt, the wound isn't there

I guess that your truth, is just the ghost of your lies
I guess your kind of truth, is just the ghost of your lies
yeah, your kind of truth, darling, is just the ghost of your lies
I see through them all the time
so I'm pouring some whiskey, I'm gonna get drunk
yeah, I'm pouring myself some whiskey, I'm going to get really fucking drunk
I'm pouring some whiskey right now, I'm going to get so, so drunk
that I pass out, forget your face, by the time I wake up.



[I could've been anybody else.]
