Bad Day Today!!

Well, today is not going as it should. It appears that I have caused a few problems, and I would like to apologize to everyone affected by it. What I thought was a harmless act has caused a major headache not only for me but for someone who had alot more at stake than myself. I hope that what has happened will not cause any bad feelings toward me, although if it does, I can understand. If for some reason you read this, please know that I in no way meant for this to happen, and I feel really bad about it. Please accept my apology.

The Song for today!!

Not sure how many of you have ever heard this song, but it is in my Top 10. Something about this song just relates how I feel alot of the time, and everytime I listen to it I get chills. So take a listen, and i know alot of you may not like the music or understand the lyrics so I am going to post them below. Please just listen to the song, and let me know what you think.

WORLD SO COLD - Mudvayne

When passion's lost and all the trust is gone,
Way too far, for way too long
Children crying, cast out and neglected,
Only in a world so cold, only in a world This cold
Hold the hand of your best friend,
look into their eyes Then watch them drift away
Some might say, we've done the wrong things,
For way too long, for way too long

Fever inside the storm, So I'm turning away.
Away from the name (Calling your names)
Away from the stones (Throw sticks and stones)
'Cause I'm through mending the wounds of us
Keep your thorns 'Cause I'm running away,
Away from the games (Fucking head games)
Away from the space (Hate this head space)
The circumstances of a world so cold

burning whispers, Remind me of the days,
I was left alone, in a world this cold
Guilty of the same things, provoked by The cause,
I've left alone, in a world so cold

Fever inside the storm, So I'm turning away.
Away from the name (Calling your names)
Away from the stones (Throw sticks and stones)
'Cause I'm through mending the wounds of us
Keep your thorns 'Cause I'm running away,
Away from the games (Fucking head games)
Away from the space (Hate this head space)
The circumstances of a world so cold
I'm flying, I'm flying away,
Away from the names (Calling your names)
Away from the games (Fucking head games)
The circumstances of a world so cold

Why does everyone feel like my enemy,
Don't want any part of depression or Darkness,
I've had enough sick and tired, bring the sun, or I'm gone, Or I'm gone
I'm backing out, I'm no pawn, No mother-fucking slave to this,
Never lied Never left
Never lived Never loved
Never lost Never hurt
Never worry about being me, or anyone else
Not a care, no concern, don't give a shit about Anything
Backing out, giving up, no mother-fucking Slave to this,
Never lied Never left
Never lived Never loved
Never lost Never hurt
Never worry about being me, or anyone else
Not a care, no concern, don't give a shit about Anything,

I need to find a darkened corner, A lightless corner,
Where it's safer and calmer,
I'm turning away.
Away from the name (Calling your names)
Away from the stones (Throw sticks and stones)
'Cause I'm through mending the wounds of us
I'm running away,
Away from the games (Fucking head games)
Away from the space (Hate this head space)
The circumstances of a world so cold I'm flying, I'm flying away,
Away from the names (Calling your names)
Away from the games (Fucking head games)
The circumstances of a world so cold
