9 crimes.

as I sit here listening to damien rice, sipping my grape juice (hooray for being 18), and beginning to feel the effects of some very strong muscle relaxers I think about how much I love damien rice. and especially his song 9 crimes.

Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I'd do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be thinking of you

It's the wrong time
For somebody new
It's a small crime
And I've got no excuse

Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you don't shoot it how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright
With you?

Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I'd do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be cheating on you

It's the wrong time
She's pulling me through
It's a small crime
And I've got no excuse

Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you dont shoot it, how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
If I give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?

I think the first crime is not listening to damien more often (first name basis what up). I mean, he's just great. 9 crimes, cannonball, the blower's daughter, delicate. all good.
now don't bother asking me what that song means to me, because I've got nothing. other than that I like it. it makes me happy.
