the modern leper.

A cripple walks amongst you all

you tired human beings

He's got all the things a cripple has, not working arms and legs

And vital parts fall from his system and dissolve in Scottish rain, Vitally he doesn't miss them He's too fucked up to care

is that you infront of me?

Coming back for even more of exactly the same

You must be a masochist

to love a modern leper on his last leg

Well, I crippled your heart a hundred times,

and still can't work out why

You see, I've got this disease I can't shake

and I'm just rattling through life

Well, this is how we do things now

Yeah, this is how the modern say scared

So I cut out all the good stuff

Yeah, I cut off my foot to spite my leg

Is that you infront of me?

Coming back for even more of exactly the same

You must be a masochist

to love a modern leper

on his last leg

well i am ill

but i'm not dead

and i don't know which of those i prefer

because that limp which i have lost

it was the only thing holding me up

holding me up

I'm lying on the ground now

and you walk in through the only door

Well, I have lost my eyesight like i said i would

but i still know

That that is you infront of me

you are back for even more of exactly the same

are you a masochist

You love a modern leper on his last leg

you're not ill

and i'm not dead

doesn't that make us the perfect pair?

just you and me

we'll start again

and you can tell me all about

what you did today

what you did today.

roots.

people are so amazing. i am fascinated by the life of the individual. i love when i am so intrigued by a person that i can just get lost in them for a while. try to find out why they act the way they do. what typically makes them have good days. a smile. the weather. a good song. a good ride. a good run. a good read. a joke. a good grade. and then find out why those elements rubbing against that person makes them react well. what experience in their past molded them to feel that way. and then maybe by listening for the unspoken secrets like these i can learn how to make their bad days better days.
everything comes down to roots doesn't it? but even some things are unexplainable and a complete mystery. and i. love. it. there is something so infinite inside of us. someone who handles situations completely different than i do is naturally the most intriguing thing. i want to learn what makes them them. because they are not me. and suddenly the world is a lot bigger than myself and i feel so small again.
