My music blog, “Everybody Cares, Everybody Understands”, which is named after the Elliott Smith song of the same name. And I like the sentiment as well,...
the kids at the shows? they’ll have kids of their own. the sing along songs will be our scriptures.
You say I am repeating Something I have said before. I shall say it again. Shall I say it again? In order to arrive there, To arrive where you are, to get from where you are not, You must go by a way wherein there is no ecstasy. In order to arrive at what you do not know You must go by a way which is the way of ignorance. In order to possess what you do not possess You must go by the way...
