About Me

I sing in two bands, Staylefish and Hiding Blue Face. Can't particularly say anything here because I think I'm in the middle of become a completely different person. Always relate to this though.
I'm addicted period. And it's weird because so much of the population is addicted - or compulsive. And impulsive.
I'm really compulsive about shit. When I cant fix my head with a certiain drug or whatever I'll clean something up. Or I'll get really like, fucking fidgety and uncomfortable and I fly off the handle easy. It's like if im not gorging myself on one thing im fucking...im trying to fill that hole some other way, you know what i mean.
It's always this great feeling of need and it doesn't necessarily have to be of anything in particular, its just something that you dont know what it is which drives you that much more insane sometimes.
And thats what a lot of people today suffer from and a lot of people dont even realise.
I don't profess to know everything about it But. You know. I dont know. I just know that theres that hole that needs to be filled. And a lot of people die trying.
-James Lynn Strait.
