Your voice in the dark.: I'm not gonna look down and I'm not gonna look back

I'm not gonna look down and I'm not gonna look back

Something that makes me smile when I'm down is when the snow is coming down so thick at night that it turns the freeway into a racetrack, with no lanes to have to follow and a pretend Daytona 500 in my mind.

I also like it when I hear a song that I fall in love with instantly and, when I leave it behind that first day, it keeps warming my heart even when I can't remember the words a bit. Like this one.

Tonight is: St. Vincent - Laughing With a Mouth of Blood

Just like an amnesiac
Trying to get my senses back
(Oh where did they go)

Laughing with a mouth of blood
From a little spill I took
(What are you laughing at)

See I traded my plot of land
For a plane to anywhere
(Oh where did you go)

And I can't see the future
But I know it's got big plans for me
(Oh what does it see)

All my old friends aren't so friendly
And all my old haunts are now haunting me

Holed up at the motel Ritz
With a televangelist
(Oh what did he say)
At the bottom of a swimming pool
With all the water out of it
(How'd you get in there)

I'm sending consolation prizes to my next of kin, allies
(Oh they'll be so thrilled)

And I can't see the future
But I know it's watching me
(Wonder what it sees)

All my old friends aren't so friendly
And all my old haunts are now haunting me

Tell my sister that I miss her
Tell my brother that it gets much easier
Tell my sister that I miss her
Tell my brother that it gets much easier

All my old friends aren't so friendly
And all my old haunts are now haunting me
All my old friends aren't so friendly
And all my old haunts are now haunting me
