helter skelter
I have blink 182 on my mind cos I miss you
you with your helter-skelter smile
you always knew how to murder the night and bring it to heel
I'm your cunt...you dominate my thoughts
the wretched day reminded how weak I am without you
I tell you it kicked my ass
I know you...you would have proclaimed anarchy on the day
no one or no thing ever pushed you around
you would have never admitted defeat
staking your claim on whatever beast came your way
bullshiter, sweet talker bending things to your will
on this lonesome night, I'm reminded of you
I want you to come and set things straight for me
put my Jekyll to sleep or give it a shot of dope
peer into my soul now and speak to my demons
they always got in line for you
kill the day that jilted me and left me a lonely hooker
prostituting my thoughts out
they're for sale real cheap...give them to you for a dirty look
I miss you and you're not here to tame the monsters who stalk me
I'm dead in defeatism and the irony of it all is escaping me
"don't waste your time on me
you're already the voice inside my head"

First line sold me. That song is in my spotify list. How many nights i sat up scream cry singing with blink 182 especially my favorite song What Went Wrong.... Perfect poem.
"I cannot sleep I cannot dream tonight"
Thats where I'm at right now.

You have put the feeling of missing someone so eloquently in this spill dear Brenda the sweet pain and desperation of wanting but the object of that want is not there.

Holy hell Brenda. You bring that heat. This write is electric. First stanza hit me like a whip, second carried the sting.

Great write, love the visual. Blink 182 surprised me as I had The Beatles spinning in my head reading this and then the last line well The Police, Voices Inside My Head.
Always enjoy reading you

I love this song, where are you and I'm sorry I'm so sorry I cannot dream cannot sleep tonight, think sometimes we don't even know it when we feel low or feel vulnerable there are songs out there that could give us some peace.
kill the day that jilted me and left me a lonely hooker
prostituting my thoughts out
they're for sale real cheap...give them to you for a dirty look
Im giving you that look you want...……….so now I await your thoughts Mistress of words....
