I'm finding Crystal Castles and their new album oddly transfixing in it's brash bold ugly noise and then soft but strong melodies - It just pulls me in. Not that I'd ever want to make music like that, too much weight on my shoulders if I did - I'd be expected to be this doom-filled angst ridden youth with an anxiety complex writing dark music to make myself feel better; my music isn't quite dark enough to fulfil that roll unfortunately.
Wrote something new and it bothers me - it's so much more straightforward than my other ones; it follows and obvious pattern, not in a cliché, ignorant way, just in a sensible way. I don't want to make sensible songs, I want to do something new and wonderful. But if it gets the go ahead from the big man then sure as hell I'll use it. His judgement is less cynical than mine. Maybe I should work on that - maybe I should embrace myself more; let me be me. Or I could do what I'm used to doing.
Ripping up the thought of ever doing anything good and tearing myself apart over it - then making her pick me up and put me back together; it's worked thus far, why shouldn't it work forever. Or until it ends. I hope it isn't soon, I don't want to see it coming over the horizon and hurtling towards me like some ominous fist ready to fuck up all my years of dental work.
Major break down today. Bigger than before. Much worse - Camera. Black spot. Every picture. Drove me to the point of threatening my camera that I'll rip it's little Sony bollocks off if it fucks with me again. But I'm fine now. As you can obviously tell.

Things are looking up.
I need to get a microphone and an effects pedal. Maybe if I can make my voice more of an instrument before I start singing any words I can have an impact on the sound I want to hear. And I want to surprise people, make them look at me differently//so I can finally look how I want to sound. And maybe, like I've wanted to for so long, I'll come across this sound that both contrasts and compliments what the Boys write and let me finally make something I can look on as something I want to show people to make them like me.
when you were gone i think i went blind
i couldnt see the mess youve made of me
everytime i tried to move i sighed
i dont know where im supposed to go
am i meant to go back to loving you
now that you've grown your breasts again
with one change is it all meant to change
rip out your throat so you dont bring it up
I feel like i should just sit here
in the empty husk of morning
and make friends with the spiders
and their meals
hiding away in the cobwebs
im going to let myself rot
just so no one sees me broken
youve shown me what to make of my life
i just want to go back to sleep
but not before ive killed my wife
bury her deep inside my ribcage
dont let anyone else see her
i shouldve done this years ago
im not letting this hurt show
im going to ruin your face
until youre unrecognisable
just so when they see me
they know you havent come home
and to think i used to really like you
but you never thought to like me
Night ladies. You aren't boring BECKY. You inspire me to no end.
