day 05 - a song that reminds you of someone

oh boohoo, this is just made for lovers in exile innit? well i'm not a lover. i'm a pretentious drunk, i'm an ungrateful daughter and i'm a loyal friend (atleast i like to think i am). i'm all of the above but first and foremost i'm a selfish cunt, so i'm not sorry, i'm not sorry i left and i'm not gonna feel guilty for feeling better now than before. there are songs that remind me of the good things i left behind, be sure dear old friends, but there is one song that reminds me not only of a person but also of the mentality surrounding my last years as a teenager. my mum told me taht she wanted the theme from local hero to be played on her funeral. so it reminds me of her, of a wish she could only tell people close to her. it also reminds me of a time when life felt like nothing more than a sad waiting for a longexpected night's sleep. when planning your funeral felt more important than living your life.
