slides easy existence
It's really easy to slide into a depression fueled by the pointlessness of existence.
self self-conscious conscious
I am very self-conscious a lot of the time.
desire want made
I had no desire to be famous; I just wanted to make the greatest music ever made. I didn't want anyone to know who I was.
explaining because-i-can feels
I lose myself in music because I can't be bothered explaining what I feel to anyone else around me.

I've always spent more time with a smile on my face than not, but the thing is, I don't write about it.
parent house bedroom
I still frequent my parents' house. I go there to escape, back to the bedroom that I grew up in. Just to sit there and feel small.
moving makeup special
I've discovered special makeup by a company called M.A.C. You could wear it on the surface of the sun and it wouldn't move.
children mindset born
I've never regretted not having children. My mindset in that regard has been constant. I objected to being born, and I refuse to impose life on someone else.
fashion thinking years
I married somebody who likes the way I look. If I changed my hair every year, and I reinvented myself in time-honoured pop fashion, I think understandably the person I'm married to would grow slightly sick of me.
letting-go remember forget
It's better to forget than remember me and cry.
women two views
B is for Breasts Of which ladies have two; Once prized for the function, Now for the view.

I write with a pen and paper. Never on a laptop.

In all relationships, there are always aching holes and that's where the impossible wishes come into it.
