I apologize for the lack of posting lately. Much like this photograph, things have been intense, chaotic, confusing, sad, hilarious, exhilarating, silly, stupid, and (Insert adjective here). After the jump is a song with the lyrics included that somewhat describe all of these feelings. 

MP3: Against Me!-8 Full Hours of Sleep
Reinventing Axl Rose(No Idea, 2002)

When you sleep
no one is homeless
when you sleep
you can't feel the hunger
when you sleep
no one is lonely in a dream
without classes
without nations
when you sleep
she's standing there with open arms and one night could last forever
and if you asked her
she'd never let go
and you'd stay forever
and the sun's always rising in the sky somewhere
and if young hearts should explode from all the lies they've been told
let the new night bring you peace
and the promise of tomorrow
where we can wake to a new beginning
tomorrow
i'll all but have lost their faces
my friends and family
memories of all we had and the times we should have lived
and tomorrow america just might fall apart
tomorrow
tell me where will you wake up
beyond title
beyond lease
careers and laws
something more than borders on a map
and the sun's always falling in the sky somewhere
and if young hearts should explode
from all the lies they've been told
to live through one night like this
...
i would trade it for the silence.
