Bio:this shadow is deceiving you
for the whispers of the common man
are pure and simple lies.

heed not the warnings of the meek
fear not the silence of the deep
for eventually, we all must sleep.

haven`t seen you in quite a while
i was down the hold, just passing time
last time we met it was a low-lit room
we were as close together as bride and groom
we ate the food, we drank the wine
everybody having a good time
except you
you were talking about the end of the world

i took the money, i spiked your drink
you miss too much these days if you stop to think
you led me on with those innocent eyes
and you know i love the element of surprise
in the garden i was playing the tart
i kissed your lips and broke your heart
you, you were acting like it was the end of the world

in my dream i was drowning my sorrows
but my sorrows they learned to swim
surrounding me, going down on me
spilling over the brim
in waves of regret, waves of joy
i reached out for the one i tried to destroy
you, you said you`d wait until the end of the world...


--u2

i am the embodiment of what is corrupt in the universe, tempered with a borrowed soul, and possessed with enough wisdom to be damned by it all.

i work for Red Hat, an open source software company, with some of the smartest people alive on staff. its usually a humbling and fullfilling experience.

"they want you to be jesus
they'll go down on one knee
but they'll want their money back
if you're alive at thirty-three"


--u2

i occasionally fancy myself a writer, a poet, but it is a childish dream, which i only occasionally indulge myself in.

i am many men at once, to many different people, and that leaves me sometimes wondering who i truly am.

"i died, i died and you just stood there. i died and you watched me. i died and you walked by and said, 'no, i'm dead'."

--eddie vedder

and tomorrow, i may die.

"but it was so much easier when i was cruel."

--elvis costello
