lover, you should've come over...

no really you should have. but you just couldn't face me could you? you won't be the tear that hangs inside my soul forever, but god damn i won't forget this...but that's just my opinion x



   


Looking out the door
I see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners
Parading in a wake of sad relations
As their shoes fill up with water

Maybe I'm too young
To keep good love from going wrong
But tonight, you're on my mind so
You never know

Broken down and hungry for your love
With no way to feed it
Where are you tonight?
Child, you know how much I need it.
Too young to hold on
And too old to just break free and run

Sometimes a man gets carried away,
When he feels like he should be having his fun
Much too blind to see the damage he's done
Sometimes a man must awake to find that, really,
He has no-one...

So I'll wait for you... And I'll burn
Will I ever see your sweet return?
Oh, will I ever learn?
Oh, Lover, you should've come over
Cause it's not too late.

Lonely is the room the bed is made
The open window lets the rain in
Burning in the corner is the only one
Who dreams he had you with him
My body turns and yearns for a sleep
That won't ever come
It's never over,
My kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
It's never over,
all my riches for her smiles when I slept so soft against her...
It's never over,
All my blood for the sweetness of her laughter...
It's never over,
She's a tear that hangs inside my soul forever...

But maybe I'm just too young to keep good love
From going wrong
Oh... lover you should've come over...

Yes, and I feel too young to hold on
I'm much too old to break free and run
Too deaf, dumb, and blind
To see the damage I've done
Sweet lover, you should've come over
Oh, love, well I'll wait for you
Lover, you should've come over
'Cause it's not too late.

a courtney love/hate story...

...so yea. i kind of love/hate courtney love. on one hand i suspect she might have had something to do with the death of my idol and the inspiration behind this blog, kurt cobain. on the other...well...she's just fucking cool. terribly shallow i know but i'm a sucker for a crazy lady with shit hot style. yes, she has got it wrong a few times, but haven't we all? i hate to be the one to say it but she gave a HOLE (geddit?) new meaning to 'heroin chic'. literally. the big skagrat.

miss havisham? whatcourtneyworetoday.com
so anyway i woke up this morning to hole's 'celebrity skin' (my trusty alarm tone for the last three months or so) and wondered why i hadn't yet written a contradictory blog entry about the legend that is love. i really don't know whether to champion or lampoon her (oooh lampoon, an ace word but one that i rarely find the opportunity to use in a sentence). i go through phases. i hate her when i remind myself that she used to go out with my number one celebrity crush, the devastatingly beautiful edward norton. i love her when i think about her fierce independence and her ability to stick two fingers up to...well, everyone.

having just recently had my heart ripped out, splattered up the wall, ran over by a, oh i don't know let's say for arguments sake a dark blue bmw t-reg estate, then eaten by wolves, i have to say i admire her 'independent woman' act at the moment. she would never put up with this shit! so i guess for the time being i'm in a pro-coutney phase. but enough drama, let's have a look at a few pictures so you can see exunkly what i mean, yes? cool.

i loved this photoshoot for uk elle. and those god damn mother fucking shoes! i need them in my life right now! elle magazine 2008.

quite possibly my favourite picture of love. ever. amen. ever. us vogue.
well it wouldn't be a complete blog entry about the c-dog without a boob shot! cute shorts. whatcourtneyworetoday.com
sorry this is a li'l blurry but yes, that's right, this is a photo of love with the tragic jeff buckley! apparently they had a few dates, the girl done good. whatcourtneyworetoday.com
well i'm a big fan of falsies so this shot gets my approval. whatcourtneyworetoday.com

another shot from the elle shoot. elle magazine 2008
irrelevant but sooo cute! superstarcouples.com
i think you get the idea. courtney love, weird yet wonderful (i think?) and forever able to make an impact on music, fashion and grunge culture. no matter if you love her or hate her. but that's just my opinion...x
