I got scumbagged today. [this post was edited to remove pointless angst. you can't blame an animal when it attacks, so why write about it?]

But enough of my angst, bring the noise:

So I bring you Cursive's "Am I Not Yours?" my most favorite recent find, topically handy and poignant and although it's not my situation, it's close enough that I can feel the truth behind the hurt behind the vocal.

Jealousy Jealousy
am I am I am I
not yours not yours not yours?
We stopped for some alcohol and you stayed in the car
The bars had gotten out that line was so long and
I saw you over on the pay phone well so I
was thinking who do you ever call at one a.m.?
I wondered who that was
Jealousy Jealousy
I am I am I am
not yours not yours not yours

Sonic Youth's "Shadow of Doubt" from EVOL:

I met a stranger on the train

I bumped right into him

I swear I didn't mean it

I swear it wasn't meant to be

must have been a dream

from a thousand years ago

kiss me
kiss me in the shadow of doubt

kiss me.

Ani DiFranco's "As Is":

I got no illusions about you

Guess what

I never did

When I said

When I said I’ll take it

I meant

I meant as is

And Dave Matthews Band's "Hallowe'en":

And in this dream,
Tell me,
Are you satisfied with fucking?
Don't walk away
I'm talking to you.
