yah for me

ok
if anyone is interested...

i didn't go out this weekend
i stayed at home
got drunk
very drunk
shagged a russian backpacker

i did set off for the club
but i was so drunk
i forgot where i was going
ended up circling the block
and standing outside my house
for half an hour
trying to remember where i was going

so yes,
it was only by default i didn't go out
but
i didn't go out

yah for me

For the last time...


so here we are again
its saturday afternoon
the phone calls have started
WHAT ARE WE DOING TONIGHT?
i feel like no one listens to me
i told you all last saturday
i'm not going out any more
last weekend was the last hurrah
thats why we had a big one
i was really clear
the last night out
but no one listens
no one listened when i said it the week before either
nor the week before that
so let me be as clear as i can...
TONIGHT IS THE LAST NIGHT I'M GOING OUT
it's the last one so we should probably make it a biggie...

the truth


i told a lie
i felt so bad about it
that i followed it up with another lie

i don't know if i'm more concerned by the lie or the fact i'm upset about the lie
the thing is...
i always lie
constantly
which is really funny as i'm one of the most brutally honest people i know
people rely on my honest opinion
a lot of times i use the honesty to mask the lie that follows

this time i lied about where i was and who i was with
i wasn't trying to hide anything or cover my tracks
i lied and made up the tracks.
a winding weaving track of storytelling
where i was very vague with facts and figures
to make it seem like i was covering something

i did it so you'd make that face
the expression that you're absolutely useless at covering
and i know you won't call me up on it
because there's no way you'd want to know the details
the details would hurt you
so i won't bother making them up

so in the spirit of honesty
i actually went straight home from your house the other night
it didn't take two hours
and i didn't stop at anyones on the way

i also never kissed anyone on saturday night
but the expression on your face
made me feel like i did.
i wish i had
kissed someone on saturday
but i was out with Miss H...

i feel crappy i lied
i'm sorry
not crappy enough that i'd tell you
or let you read my blog
especially after that other post

i'm sorry
no lie

man


so this is my blog about you
the one that you asked me to write

what do i say
especially knowing that you'll read it
i'm already blocked
like you're standing over me

that other one i wrote
about that guy
it came out so freely because i knew he'd never see it

well...
you asked for it

i think you're a good man
a great man even
but i always felt that you weren't my man
or the right man for me

but maybe thats because i'm a boy
pretending to be very grown up
but a boy none the less
and you need a man

a man you can boss around
and be grumpy at
slam the door and squeal off down the street with a carafe
you need a man who doesn't bruise
look at me hard and my arm blackens
like a little boy

i have tantrums
like a boy
so when you gave me the ultimatum
i hit the deck
punched and kicked the floor
and told you to leave

so you did

but i'm not that vain
to think
the decision was mine
you knew what was right for you
and you did it

i know you did the right thing
even if i'm left here twiddling my thumbs
writing the odd blog 
facebooking
facebooking

i'm glad you're gone
i feel like we're friends now
i think about you unselfishly now
and want the best for you 

like a man
