Poor head. Can hardly move my lips for speaking. I said. So, what is this thing I cannot explain?. I'd blame all the thing I feel but can't quite place. Perhaps they're written on my face. Someo

My head is spinning and my legs are weak. Goose step dancing, can't hear myself speak. Hope in the eyes of the ugly girls. That settle for the lies of the last chancers When slow motion drunks pick
