The Boy by David Foster Wallace

"I don't give a shit about sleeping, Leon. I want love. Or death."

Warpaint/Undertow

Your brown eyes are my blue skies
They light up the river that the birds fly over
Better not to quench your thirst
Better not to be the first one diving in,
though you caught me and you know why
they breathe in the deepest part of the water.

What’s the matter, you hurt yourself
Opened your eyes and there was someone else
Now I’ve got you in the undertow
Now I’ve got you in the undertow
Why you wanna blame me for your troubles?
Ah ah ah you better learn your lesson yourself.
Nobody ever has to find out what’s in my mind tonight

Let tonight pass us by,
Do you really want to be the one to fight?
And I said “You’re better not to light that fire
It will take you to the darkest part of the weather.

What’s the matter, you hurt yourself?
Opened your eyes and there was someone else?
Now I’ve got you in the undertow
Now I’ve got you in the undertow
Why you wanna blame me for your troubles?
Ah ah ah you better learn your lesson yourself.
Nobody ever has to find out what’s in my mind tonight
Nobody ever has to find out what’s in my mind tonight.

Nobody in my mind. Nobody in my mind.
I feel it in my heart tonight.

I laid on the floor, pressing in my eyes.
Seeing little lights.
These are the decisions that only one could make
I wanted to stay home but i went running running running running from the troubles
running running running running running running running

What’s the matter, you hurt yourself?
Opened your eyes and there was someone else?
Now I’ve got you in the undertow
Now I’ve got you so
Why you wanna blame me for your troubles?
Ah ah ah you better learn your lesson yourself.
Nobody ever has to find out what’s in my mind tonight.
Nobody ever has to find out what’s in my mind tonight.
