The scratches of a dark night
The rashes of foresight
And I wanted you

The weight of my freezing
I had come to you
The face I was given
I have no similarities to
The spaces in the law look
Like the faces in a word book
I get by,
I get by

The matches of opportunities
The last thing I’ve never seen
And I scream to you

The pain I was needing
Was sort of true
The one aim I was clearing
Was the walls that grew
The crazes I overlooked
The leans into the cook
And I did,
And I did

And I was screaming bloody murder
And I was one with pain
And I stopped by the road side
Cause this is from where I came

My God but it’s so far away
It would seem accidents have gone straight to you
And you’ve changed your point of view
And the places you’re going to
I got crowded,
I get crowded

And I’m so glad that you’re mine
It twists up the fabric of time
And I’m useless,
Yes, I’m useless

And your faces are bodies
And your hands are feet
Let me roll around
In things I can’t believe
But I tried
Yes I tried
And I tried
You know I tried

“

We can, if we so choose, wander aimlessly over the continent of the arbitrary. Rootless as some winged seed blown about on a serendipitous spring breeze. Nevertheless, we can in the same breath deny that there is any such thing as coincidence. What’s done is done, what’s yet to be is clearly yet to be, and so on. In other words, sandwiched as we are between the “everything” that is behind us and the “zero” that is beyond us, ours is an ephemeral existence in which there is neither coincidence nor possibility. In actual practice, however, distinctions between the two interpretations amount to precious little. A state of affairs (as with most face-offs between interpretations) not unlike calling the same food by two different names.

So much for metaphors.

”

- Haruki Murakami (via honesthypocrite)

George: See, look at this. Rachel, my T-shirt shrunk. It used to be much bigger, and now it shrunk. You see, that’s what water does. It shrinks things.
Elaine: Really? Tell us more, Mr. Science.
