Some things are too embarassing
I could never tell you
I could never tell anyone
How much i think about you
How much it scares me
Every morning as insomnia's grip loosens
I stare at your picture
I think of your painful shyness
Your ravaged self-opinion
Your incredible beauty
How I am drawn to you

You are the reason I don't want to die all the time
When i am with you life is worth living
Time away from you is strange and full of pain
When I look into your eyes
I can see how life has savaged you
It's ok if you fall
I will be there to catch you
Anyone that would want to hurt you
Would have to kill me to do it
I will never be able to poind words into lines
TO match the velocity of your presence

Henry Rollins is the shit. Go pick up his books.

yes, he is the Uber-shit. hilarious as a comedian as well.

Awesome punk vocalist as well...saw him with Black Flag in the mid 80's....oops, I guess I just gave away my age!

^^Lucky bastard

I had the pleasure of meeting the former wife of the guy that started maximum rock n roll somehow in Alpine of all the fucking places.She was working with alternative tentacles at the time and has a photo album with some people i considered heros for much of my teen angst years. Loads of Henry. Unfortunately living in west texas most of my life and not being quite old enough kept me from seeing most of them live or alive.

Tim Yohannon! God it's been a while since I thought about him...RIP.

Alpine huh...you ever run into anyone named Mandy 'round those parts?

Naw not really we kept a small group for the most part. His wife was Katerine and he had a daughter as well that was beautiful named Sophie. Both really great people. Im sure he was a great man. He will be missed.

i was born in the mid 80s



how old are you alan?

33...

then you saw the transition of HR selling out

why yeah. Although the Rollins Band was major good live.

agreed....but my only beef with henry r isn't the music...it's all the shit he used to be about he now condones....kinda like cheech

Yeah, he'll never be as much of an annoying whiny pants as Ian McKaye though.

The last time I saw Fugazi (probably the last time I will EVER go to see them), Ian McKaye stopped a song 13 times (yes, I counted...so ridiculous I had to have an objective benchmark) because some people in the club were slamming/moshing. And mind you, this was at Sunset Station in SA.

too funy!!!!!!!!
