no one is standing in your way anymore, it is time to move forward

asking for flowers

it's complicated
technically I'm certified
a walking declaration
of everything I couldn't get right
time is just an anchor
but 7 years I think I'm right
now you've changed your number
it's like a noose around my life

every pill I took in vain
every meal for you I made
every penny I put away

asking for flowers
is like asking you to be nice
don't tell me you're too tired
10 years I've been working nights

my life is like a picture
left out too long in the sun
now I'm trying to remember
all the faces of the names I've loved
and all that's left of me now is
a cigarette burning bright
and a fading memory of all the things
I tried to get right

every pill I took in vain
every meal for you I made
every plan I tried to make

asking for flowers
is like asking you to be nice
don't tell me you're too tired
10 years I've been working nights

every pill I took in vain
every meal for you I made
every bill I went and paid
every card I signed my name
every time I poured my heart out
every threat you made to move out
every cruel word you let just slip out
every cruel word you let just slip out

i has a monies

Ms. McG has just returned from jolly old England! I can't wait to hear all about her adventures (and misadventures?) and see the pics!

In the meantime, let's talk souvenirs...

queenieI hope she doesn't mind that I blinged out my postcard.
Hmm... I think putting that together has given me a slight headache.

These are cool. I had asked for some coins, and these were in my goodie bag.

I am especially loving the pound! It's a bit heftier than the other coins and stands out among them. (Even though Sam got a euro!)

Check this thing out! She says Cadbury's big in the UK.
Did I need another reason to want to go there? :)

I also got a cool shell from a place called Beachy Head, which looks a little something like this...

Awesome photo Ms. McG!

I also scored a magnet in the shape of a double decker bus and a button that says MY ARSE!

Yay! Souvenirs!
