Koido hardly realized he'd fallen asleep until he woke up. His coffee was still standing up and unspilled, surprisingly, but his neck was sore, and there was a red mark on his arm from where his head had been resting. He sat up, stretching his arms out and groaning slightly. Tasting his coffee, he made a face and threw it out in the nearby garbage can. Briefly, very briefly, he debated texting Jesse to see what she was up to, but he figured that she was still feeling mad at him and that it would be a good idea to leave her alone for a bit. Sighing, he left the cafeteria again.
"I feel all.. depressed. Why the hell?" Sighing yet again in a rather depressed and let-down way, he walked back to his dorm, collected an acoustic guitar that his uncle had given him, and went to sit outside and practice his chords. He was still learning to play the guitar anyway. Closing his eyes he opened his mouth and started singing to a
song he had memorized.
"How cruel is the golden rule?
When the lives we lived are only golden-plated
And I knew that the lights of the city were too heavy for me
And though I carry karats for everyone to see
And I saw God cry in the reflection of my enemies
And all the lovers with no time for me
And all of the mothers raised their babies
To stay away from me
Tongues on the sockets of electric dreams
Where the sewage of youth drown the spark of my tears
And I knew that the lights of the city were too heavy for me (too heavy for me)
And though I carry karats for everyone to see (everyone to see)
And I saw God cry in the reflection of my enemies
And all the lovers with no time for me
And all of the mothers raised their babies
To stay away from me
And pray they don't grow up to be me"
