| HENRY (FUCK YES) ROLLINS |
Henry Rollins is a sweet bad-ass motherfucker. Even with Black Flag, Rollins in his own band or as a speaker is just awesome. But that's not what I'm going to talk about today.
Once a friend told me something important about an ex-gf I had in Japan. I had just been jilted by the ex and was so confused, in fact I was so fucked emotionally I wasn't able to believe or comprehend she was able to jilt me after doing nice things with me within two weeks before she left. So basically my friend of mine was like, "Dude, just get over the bitch." But I couldn't, because I literally wasn't able to look at her actions as foul-able. That was a mistake.
I guess I wasn't able to hold her responsible for hurting me since I was in blind-idiot-YOU-FUCKED-MY-HEART-YOU-FUCKING-CUNT-HOLE-BITCH-YOU-FUCKING-LIAR!-love with her. Maybe I thought she was too special to have fucked me over. Maybe. Even when I was confused emotionally, I wasn't able to get angry. Later on in life I realized she never really loved me, except when she was riding my hips. Now I can say with a smile on my face, "Fuck you you gook-eyed liar!" But seriously, I wish her well with- whatever... No, in actual seriousness I don't even waste my time wishing her well, I have other shit to worry about.
But anyway, today I read an email that included the (Henry) Rollins Band song Liar, and it reminded me of that ex within seconds. I'm sure we've all faced liars, or worse we ended up being one at one point or another, either with someone or with ourselves. It's a shame I didn't hear this the day after she broke up with me, it probably would have helped. Who knows?
Lyrics:
You think you're going to live your life alone
In darkness and seclusion
Yeah, I know
You've been out there
And tried to mix with those animals
And it just left you full of humiliated confusion
So you stagger back home and wait for nothing
But the solitary refinement of your room spits you back onto the streets
And now you're desperate
And in need of human contact
And then you meet me
And your whole world changes
Because everything I say is everything you've ever wanted to hear
So you drop all you defenses
And you drop all your fears
And you trust me completely
I'm perfect in every way
Cause I make you feel so strong and so powerfull inside
You feel so lucky
But your ego obscures reality
That you never bothered to
Wonder why things are going so well
You want to know why?
CAUSE I'M A LIAR!
YEAH, I'M A LIAR!
I'LL RIP YOUR MIND OUT
I'LL BURN YOUR SOUL!
I'll turn you into me
I'll turn you into me
CAUSE I'M A LIAR!
A LIAR!
A LIAR, A LIAR!
I'll hide behind a smile
And understanding eyes
And I'll tell you things that you already know
So you can say
I really identify with you, so much
And all the time that you're needing me
Is just the time that I'm bleeding you...
DON'T YOU GET IT YET?
I'll come to you like an affliction
But I'll leave you like an addiction
You'll never forget me
YOU WANNA KNOW WHY?
CAUSE I'M A LIAR!
YEAH, I'M A LIAR!
I'LL RIP YOUR MIND OUT
I'LL BURN YOUR SOUL!
I'll turn you into me
I'll turn you into me
CAUSE I'M A LIAR!
A LIAR!
LIAR, LIAR, LIAR LIAR!
I don't know why I feel the need to lie
And cause you so much pain
Maybe it's something inside
Maybe it's something I can't explain
Cause all I do
Is mess you up and lie to you
I'm a liar...
Ohh, I am a liar...
But if you'll give just one more chance
I swear I'll never lie to you again
Cause now I see the destructive power of a lie,
They're stronger than truth
I can't believe I ever hurt you...
I swear I will never lie to you again
Please just give me more chance,
I'll never lie to you again, no,
I swear, I will never tell a lie,
I will never tell a lie
I will never tell a lie
No...
NO...
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!
SUCKER!
SUCKER!
SUCKER!
I AM A LIAR!
YEAH, I AM A LIAR!
YEAH!
I like it...
I feel good
Ohh, I am a liar
YEAH!
I LIE!
I LIE!
OHH, I LIE!
I'll lie again...
And again...
I'll lie again and again
and I'll keep lying...
I PROMISE.
