Oh wait, you meant 'et cetera' - something completely different - lol!
Maybe some audience participation would go down well.... zzzzzzap!
I can't tell you what stage we did it on though, since there is apparently more then one stage in Byberry.
Was a distrubing experiance.
I went there for CCD classes when I was in elementary school, being a student of Comly, a Philly public school in the same neighborhood. You more-than-likely performed in the much-larger Furey Ellis auditorium. This auditorium (pictured) was used primarily for the staff as an instructional-film viewing room. Motts has some photos of the patient assembly, which was larger than my high school auditorium. (George Washington H.S., another Philly public school).
to see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
the only thing that's real
the needle tears a hole
the old familiar sting
try to kill it all away
but I remember everything
what have I become?
my sweetest friend
everyone I know
goes away in the end
you could have it all
my empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of shit
upon my liar's chair
full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
beneath the stains of time
the feeling disappear
you are someone else
I am still right here
what have I become?
my sweetest friend
everyone I know
goes away in the end
you could have it all
my empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
if I could start again
a million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way
a lonely camera man
Here to save the past
(#54 of the day, TO MOTTS!!)
