Lie to me, o you foolish mind
Just tell me what I wish to hear
Let silence make my courage blind
So I believe in what I don’t fear
Lie to me, o you foolish brain
Just tell me the facts distorted
Let not the days go by in vain
Seeking the unreachable end
Lie to me, o you foolish head
Just tell me words of the serpent
Let the coils kill all the undead
Joy found in mutual agreement
Lie to me, o you foolish thoughts
Just take me away from the agony
Let the antidote tangle the knots
Lulled by the poison of secrecy
Lie to me, o you foolish being
Just give me my sweet release
Let truth be hidden from the seeing
As I trample on in the light.

I seldom have the "want" bug.
Meaning, i've learnt long ago to accept that there are many things in life i wont have. I understand that.
But today, the desire for that want was so so strong, that it actually got me depressed.
The wanting made me have the "...if only..." thoughts. Which is somehting we all know should be avoided as it only makes one even more upset.
i had to seek therapy right away. So i went down and bought chocolates.
*sigh*
its like something yoda would say,
Want leads to desire
desire leads to unfulfilment
unfulfilment leads to frustration
frustration leads to anger
anger leads to chocolate
and chocolate leads to the dark side...

It's very well written, very poetic (quite obvious :) ).
Dark side = obesity?
Women...they never know what they want...pfft.
BTW...what was it that you wanted anyway? Maybe someone could help you with that...
s.yen : thanks man...
bob: i'm not a girl,
i am not yet a wo-man
i asked around but help was not available.
AND thats not what i want, i dont wanna ask for help, i want the "thing" that would make me not be in the position to have to rely on help in the first place.
Hmmm....this wouldn't have anything to do with wanting missing anatomical parts which would theoretically allow you to do something simillar to that which you wanted to do at a yellow saturated event a couple of months back would it?
Missing anatomical parts... hmm...this is getting interesting!
Joel Billy - The River of Dreams
In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
From the mountains of faith
To the river so deep
I must be looking for something
Something sacred I lost
But the river is wide
And it’s too hard to cross
And even though I know the river is wide
I walk down every evening and stand on the shore
I try to cross to the opposite side
So I can finally find what I’ve been looking for
In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the valley of fear
To a river so deep
I’m a searcher for something
Taken out of my soul
Something I’d never lose
Something somebody stole
I don’t know why I go walking at night
But now I’m tired and I don’t wanna walk anymore
Hope it doesn’t take the rest of my life
Until I find what it is I’ve been looking for
In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the jungle of doubt
To the river so deep
I know I’m searching for something
Something so undefined
That it can only be seen
By the eyes of the blind
In the middle of the night
I’m not sure about a life after this
God knows I’ve never been a spiritual man
Baptized by the fire, I wade into the river
That is running to the promised land
In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Though the desert of truth
To the river so deep
We all end in the ocean
We all start in the streams
We’re all carried along
By the river of dreams
In the middle of the night
