I guess the song for this week is a complete reflection of my current thoughts and feelings :(

It's called 'Back When' by Tim McGraw

Back When

Don't you remember
The fizz in a pepper
Peanuts in a bottle
At ten, two and four
A fried bologna sandwich
With mayo and tomato
Sittin' round the table
Don't happen much anymore

We got too complicated
It's all way over-rated
I like the old and out-dated
Way of life

Back when a hoe was a hoe
Coke was a coke
And crack's what you were doing
When you were cracking jokes
Back when a screw was a screw
The wind was all that blew
And when you said I'm down with that
Well it meant you had the flu
I miss back when
I miss back when
I miss back when

I love my records
Black, shiny vinyl
Clicks and pops
And white noise
Man they sounded fine
I had my favorite stations
The ones that played them all
Country, soul and rock-and-roll
What happened to those times?

I'm readin' Street Slang For Dummies
Cause they put pop in my country
I want more for my money
The way it was back then

Back when a hoe was a hoe
Coke was a coke
And crack's what you were doing
When you were cracking jokes
Back when a screw was a screw
The wind was all that blew
And when you said I'm down with that
Well it meant you had the flu
I miss back when
I miss back when
I miss back when

Give me a flat top for strumming
I want the whole world to be humming
Just keep it coming
The way it was back then

Back when a hoe was a hoe
Coke was a coke
And crack's what you were doing
When you were cracking jokes
Back when a screw was a screw
The wind was all that blew
And when you said I'm down with that
Well it meant you had the flu
I miss back when
I miss back when
I miss back when

The complexity of this world is really frightening, complexity in terms of human relations. Till now I still can't believe that I did that. What was I thinking at that point of time? I promised myself not to get involve in it and to stay neutral. In the end, I made use of underhand means to get what I wanted. I took advantage of the trust that she had in me. I was still quite proud of myself for a moment until guilt overwhelmed me.

Why did I even allow myself to do that? By doing so, not only am I putting myself together in their league. In fact, I'm WORSE! What's happening to me? I'm like so GOD DAMN DESPICABLE! I really can't believe that I actually did that even up till this point. Did the devil defeat the angel?

It just looks like I'm more naive than I actually thought I am. I have underestimated my kind :(
