Van Hunt – Daredevil Baby

Found this over to Sista Toldja

and I’m thinkin it makes some nice Friday night listening….

clown’s really just a man who
once dared to make his dreams come true
and make up hides the damage from the crash and burn
when he told her that he loved her

the wind was blowing way to strong that day
the clouds drifted and the trees swayed
words are the chances that we take
words/[some things] are better left unexplained

you don’t know anything
till you open up your heart
and find that you can’t stop bleeding
til you playing with your cards out on the table flying
flying without wings
your a daredevil baby
your a daredevil baby

he fell hard in love as he [progressed]?
he looked but she was nowhere to be found
he hoped she’d soon forget
everything that he had shared

you don’t know anything
till you open up your heart
and find that you can’t stop bleeding
til you playing with your cards out on the table flying
flying without wings
you’re a daredevil baby
you’re a daredevil baby

girl i want to be a superman
give me half a chance
girl i want to be a superman
give me half a chance

girl i wanta be a superman
give me half a chance
girl i wanna be a super man
give me half a chance

the eyes have it ….again….

I’m still having the devil of a time with my eyes

for the first time in my life I understand the term “tired eyes” and when they are not tired they are sore or itchy…

my extending or “big picture” vision is ok for the most part…it’s the minute stuff that’s a challenge…I have to work at focusing for reading the written word on the page or on the screen

The prescribed drops..while working on the big issue…burn like a sonofabitch….however, we’ve pretty much been able to ascertain that these headaches are stemming from overuse of my eyes coupled with the Cogan’s Dystrophy and I sincerely hope there’s been no long term damage…

My computer time is limited because of the focusing issue and this new medication makes me much more light sensitive (like I needed help eh?) so I have to save the lion’s share of what time I have for work…cos I do have to pay rent

the real kicker for me is the doing nothing when I’m off thing…I can sit still with the best of them, that’s as a result of years of being sick…but for the last 10 years if I’m not on line…I’m reading or watching TV….

and right now it’s not like I can read or watch TV – but I can drive…cos I can see the big picture….

bah!

Yup…I am once again…a paradox of my own making…

I have no idea how long it will be before I can go back to spending regular time on line…and I’m sorry for that… I feel like I’m letting people down

but I also know if I don’t take care of my eyes…I may damage them permanently…and that would mean that I’d be this kind of limited this for the rest of my life…

I mean really…. I worked as a volunteer for the Ride for Sight for 20 years…. I musta learned nuttin!
