a request from joan... post "red to black" lyrics... lol

Red To Black by Fort Minor
Wooooh Wooooh Woooh Wooooooooh Woooah

I had a friend named Victor and
The two of us used to hang every single day
And it seemed like overnight that his whole life just changed
I know when his mom and dad broke up it didn't make sense
But I know that his dad was a drunk and he gambled away the rent
Pretty soon Victor was seeing red, pissed off,
but instead he'd drink every night until he passed out and then he'd do it all again
The whole time he was smiling on the outside to cover the pain,
But on the inside all he was just trying to do was get away

He's dying to get away, let the pain of yesterday go slipping through the cracks

Yo, funny how things change color then fade to another shade when you
Had 'em made that was all good but now look, just another day.
It was so fresh, it was so clean never saw it go 1-2-3, lights out which way to turn
Can't get a grip, all alone in the big white house
Everything gets worse and you just curse till your head bursts
And it hurts so bad and she left, make yourself should've thought of that one first
No family, no kids, can't accept what you did.
Now you wanna runaway, but you can't because the past comes back again

Slipping through the cracks sip a little Jack. Could've been half dead
What about rent? Why does every cent gotta be a bet? When's it gonna end?
Oh my God we don't got a penny left.
My mom's gotta find a way to get a job, out of debt, out of Dodge, out of breath, out of this big problem
My pop's wanna get away from the pain and the better place in his brain but the medication he takes makes him wasted so sick if he's gonna think the good Lord would come take him, I'm shaking him, wake up you son of a bitch.

He's dying to get away, let the pain of yesterday go slipping through the cracks
Hiding himself away, watching all the memories fade away from red to black

He's dying to get away, let the pain of yesterday go slipping through the cracks
Hiding himself away, watching all the memories fade away from red to black

Slipping through the cracks, slipping through the cracks, slipping through the cracks.

i never knew the song's lyrics were this long... but i memorized it.

props please..........................................

sup, on one of the props it said, "why dont you make a new entry?" it was because i didnt get props...

so i tried to get at least one prop so i did... anyway, i needed to update seriously.

its really fun here, watching really fun tv programs and watching movies.

but i have to do a lot of studying and doing homework... doesn't seem like fun right?

thats why i became REAL lazy and cuz we moved to a new house and all, i couldnt carry on that "tradition" of propping everyday, and i think it would be this way for a long time.

although, i'll be visiting, and i hope we can meet someday, maybe on a street or in a restaurant.

there is only 11 days before vacation ends, and i should be struck by the amount of hw in the school, im not used to this environment yet...

a weird thing is that for vacation hw (english), i have to memorize a pop song, or english song. i decided to memorize "red to black." i memorized the whole lyrics! congrats!

i hope we will all have a great time, in fact, just get used to ur environment, its really wat i want to do........

props are expected........

what a boring day...

do you people remember joe?

im writing this on the day of vacation in korea

and it only lasts one month, in fact, i have to do 10 hours of community service and hw...

i know i'll get over them but its not easy... its not been a month since i came here and the school

but, i made some friends already and went to the pc cafe today. to play.

ok first, unlike before, i will not prop everyone but only the people that prop because of time.

second, i won't make as many entries after this one.

third, the time zone "china coast" is the actual time for korea. so i think "west asia", which is +7:00 hrs, is right for taiwan.

i wont forget english...

p.s. ignore the rating.

p.p.s. internet is the fastest thing in korea. it is so fast, it can win the speed of a cheetah running. (u wont believe it.)

i havent updated for a long time

first off...

i went to america with woo yong and max han and stayed for 9 days

i saw disneyland, universal studios, grand canyon, etc... it was a good experience with BIG TWO and 99...

after that, i came back and we had to pack everything to move to korea

i went with woo yong, justin, philip su, and robin to john's bday party, at Leofoo village.

well, we came back to westin hotel and the best of all, we watched the world cup for korea and switzerland 3'o clock in the morning.

then we lost 2-0 and we all got disappointed

two days after that, we came back to korea and this is the second day staying here...

have a great summer!  

p.s. i love internet in korea! super fast

its the last day of school... i cant believe its over... well, i went to chilis and ate with all the koreans including eugene, and went to movies! (most watched shes the man, i watched it too...) the movie was real good!

jacky chen: i cant forget u! weve been friends for only 6 months and the first day, i knew that u would be friendly and not give up easily on whatever friends would do. i appreciated all the things u said, and always making me happy. next time i visit, u would be one of the people i would see first.

kathy chang, angela tsai: u two are both hard trying violinists! especially kathy, u played really good on the trio with adrienne & jessica! i never really got to know both of you, i know that u are people that get a lot of friends easily, and good luck later playing violin!
