The R.B.D. Song of the Day | Visions of the Future


Go Sailor, "Fine Day for Sailing" from Go Sailor (The Last Angry Spaceman)

Captain's Log: We'll take our problems with us into outer space. We'll be as unlucky in love on Titan as we are here on Earth. Again, this is not to say that we shouldn't go—the very opposite, in fact—but we should go in the knowledge that the act of going will not be a panacea for what ails us, for our all-too-human foibles.
"This is the last time that I'll wish you dead,
I think I've decided to like you instead,
I'll throw away the letters that I never meant to send,
'Cause now I've got more love to give than to rend.

"Therefore, this time I mean it,
This time will stick,
You're easy to like when you're not making me sick…

"I've become quite adapt at pretending you're nice,
If you won't believe it, pretending will have to suffice…

"So, I'll take the pins out of the doll,
I'll take the darts out of the wall,
I'm just so nice now, I'm not like before,
I don't think of hurting you much anymore…"
