exercise in futility

I feel sometimes like taking a plane
Maybe somewhere like Madrid Spain
Life is twisted agony, it is made up of just pain
I sometimes think everynight< I have gone insane

I love it when it is cold and it starts to rain
I watch the water as it runs down the gutter drain
Sometimes when I think, it is very hard to complain
Then I feel all of a sudden, I am totally completely sane

My life you could ay has always been plain
A song that is sung with only the refrain
I know I was born with a good brain
But my innocence taken early, it was ripped and slain

I still often think of jumping in front of a train
But this option I came to disdain
I feel like I am Abel and my brothers name is Cain
I think it is time to sit down and try my best to explain

train crash

Blood drips down in rivers
From where I slashed my arms
I pills I have just taken
Insurance, I brought the farm

Time ticks oh so slowly
When you are waiting just to die
A minute seems like hours
Upstairs a baby cries

Why it ever came to this
I don't think I even know
Trains sometimes crash together
Acts of God are painfully slow

I think I just got lost
In the hustle of the city
All the things I used to love
I have no interest, only pity

Everything I have cared for
All the things I once believed
It was all just nonsense
That is why it is time to leave.

Not just human life, all of life. I think it is all one big mistake.

I don't know where life came from, it is all fuzzy and static to me.

When is my life going to be over so I can rest in peace?

was it one of the terms of versailles that germany should have a democratic government or did germany decide it themselves?

Every so often it will be correct - but then go back to somebody with 174 best answers. Are more catagories screwed up or just this one?

I have just bought a book called, ' Mum, can you lend me twenty quid', it was written by Elizabeth Burton-Phillips. (14.99) It is about a mother who's two sons turned into heroin addicts. It is a true story. What a good but very sad read. I work in Substance misuse & it gives a different outlook reading about the other side of the coin..Well recommended ...

Play all the word games you want to. No one knows if there is a god or not anymore than an ant knows why he was stepped on. Why would a person who has accidently fallen out of an airplane dismiss the possibility of finding a parachute on the way down? That would be suicide.

Iraqis are brown
Sudanis are black

Are you telling me that as soon as human dies that is it. No more living. Nothing at all. So what we are experience now is because we are alive, and after we die there is nothing else, we won't experience nothing.

Don't you think we are going to be alive again some other way. There has to be some other way. Life just can't just end at death.

These pictures date back to the 1800's. My mother ripped all of my dad's and her family pictures up before she died. They are important to me but I don't have tons of money. I could start to learn photo shop but as of now I know nothing about it. I'd love to get them out of the box and in order. Is there archival tape out there?

Our Job that were being built up by record numbers from our previous president have been mostly destroyed, or sold out and the loss to growth after 9-11-01, still has not been made up. Our Greatest military ever, is more than less being outsourced to the highest Saudi bidders to fight their fight since Sadom was taken. Ben Laudin, must be a friend of the Cheney group, as we are not fighting to find him. Our country is barrowing money by the ship load from China, as we overspend. This so called leader of our nation is not leading in anyway, except as the worst leader ever in the world, all coutry's having a big laugh at USA, the next Russia of the past soon The laws are changing, for the Few, not the country. So Tell me, Why is Bush a Sell out Snake from TX.

I chose based on your answers to believe that it's all created in us and it's not an actual reality.

And I think my believe in created imagination (not necessarily of my mind but of higher kind) is even stronger than believe in god(like jesus and any others).

What do you think?

Self professed prophet
a manipulator behind the scenes
Never taking responsiblity for your actions
crying woe is me
Not caring about anyone but yourself
being mature and so respected
yet lying to everyone even yourself
Payback is a ***** they say
Words that can be true but whatever
happened to the idea of Pay it forward
which one will you choose?
People after the forteith year crying
I kept my mouth shut I am not a tattletale
great but lets grow up a bit
use the rainbow way
How about telling the truth
and then maybe people would not look at you that way
