Home is where I want to be
Pick me up and turn me round
I feel numb, burn with a weak heart
I guess I must be having fun
The less we say about it the better
Make it up as we go along
Feet on the ground
Head in the sky
It's ok I know nothing's wrong... nothing

The powers that be
That force us to live like we do
Bring me to my knees
When I see what they've done to you
Well, I'll die as I stand here today
Knowing that deep in my heart
They'll fall to ruin one day
For making us part

Yeah, she took me home, man
She threw me all around the room, man
I mean this chick was really hot, an'
She was nice to me, you know
She let me keep on my cowboy boots and everything
She was all right

Oh congratulations. After completely shitting the bed in 2010, 2014, 2016, and 2024, you were just able to eke out a few wins against an administration with a 35% approval rating. Genius.
Maybe if you weren’t incompetent egomaniacs, we wouldn’t be in this position in the first place.

Our right flank drove the party into a ditch, gleefully funded a genocide, threw minorities under the bus, put a senile clown into the Oval Office after dragging Diane Feinstein’s corpse around DC for 5 years and tried to make a sex pest mayor of NYC.
That’s reality.

In Malta, catch a swallow
For all of the guilty to set them free
Wings fill the window
And they beat and bleed
They hold the sky on the other side of borderlines

My fame, your reflection
My weakness, always your protection
Well, it's my terms on your conditions
And they're my tunes, but they're your compositions

On this day, 45 years ago, #Visage released their debut album "Visage" including their breakout hit "Fade To Grey".
Dan LeRoy for AllMusic wrote "this is the music that best represents the short-lived but always underrated #newromantic movement", calling it "a consistently fine creation".

Before he leaves the camp, he stops
He scans the world outside
And where there used to be some shops
Is where the snipers sometimes hide
He left his home the week before
He thought he'd be like the police
But now he finds he is at war
Weren't we supposed to keep the peace?

And it's a long day livin' in Reseda
There's a freeway runnin' through the yard
And I'm a bad boy, 'cause I don't even miss her
I'm a bad boy for breakin' her heart

You go your way, honey, I'll go mine
I'm the one who didn't waste your time
Remember me this way

When I was a child, I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye
I turned to look, but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown
The dream is gone

Feeling like a woman,
Looking like a man
Sounding like a "no-no"
Mating when I can

Got a ticket to the moon
I'll be rising high above the earth so soon
And the tears I cry might turn into the rain
That gently falls upon your window
You'll never know

Many times I tried to tell you
Many times I cried alone
Always I'm surprised how well you cut my feelings to the bone
Don't want to leave you really
I've invested too much time
To give you up that easy
To the doubts that complicate your mind

So Bluesky is already hiding replies and I can't tell you how incredibly dangerous this can be. I need to see for myself if people are threatening to kill me over a film review (which has happened!) and I don't understand why they think preventing me from knowing that is helping

It is depressing to know that people you grew up with turned into people that you couldn't tell where Anne Frank was hiding!
You can't trust anyone!!

So, we're different colors and we're different creeds
And different people have different needs
It's obvious you hate me, though, I've done nothing wrong
I've never even met you, so, what could I have done?

Sometimes I've wondered
I didn't understand
Just where you were trying to go
Only you knew the plan
And I tried to be there
But you wouldn't let me in
But now you've gone away boy
I feel so broken hearted
I knew the day we started
That we were meant to be
If only you'd let me!

Could you be, could you be squeaky clean
And smash any hope of democracy?
As the headline says you're free to choose
There's egg on your face and mud on your shoes
One of these days they're gonna call it the blues yeah

Here's a map and a diagram, a shrivelled page
Ripped from the book of history
See the priceless antiquity frozen in time
Built on the ashes of the Jews
And for your curiosity, beauty sublime
Signed in the blood of Zulus
Not really a goosestep, more of a limp

They shake your hand and they smile
And they buy you a drink
They say, we'll be your friends
We'll stick with you till the end
Ah, but everybody's only looking out for themselves
And you say, well, who can you trust
I'll tell you, it's just nobody else's money

Though I saw it all around
Never thought I could be affected
Thought that we'd be last to go
It is so strange the way things turn
Drove the night toward my home
The place that I was born, on the lakeside
As daylight broke, I saw the earth
The trees had burned down to the ground
