A teenager just can't learn how to grow up in the ruined world he lives in. So how does he cope? He doesn't. He knows that he and the world don't go together. But he's okay with that...beacause at least he knows where he's going.

Better Angels of Our Nature

I just wish that I had an absolute, sure knowledge that He really could.

"Rescue Me"--Greg Simpson, from "Unspoken"

My mind is swimming in an ocean of broken dreams
Sounds that surround me are like echoes of a million screams
Waves wrap around, pull me down
Till I'm up to my neck
Reaper might be knockin' on my door...but I'm not gone yet...

I still live, I still breath, I still wanna believe
Someone's gonna rescue me
Half dead, half alive, half a chance to survive,
But someone's gotta rescue me.

Well, I could drown in anything if I worry enough
I might be floatin' on my back...but I'm still lookin' up...

I still live, I still breath, I still wanna believe
Someone's gonna rescue me
Half dead, half alive, half a chance to survive,
But someone's gotta rescue me.
