Bjork - Unison Lyrics

One hand love the other
So much on me

Born stubborn me
Will always be
Before you count
One two three
I will have grown my own private branch
Of this tree

You gardener
You discipliner
Domestically
I can obey all of your rules
And still be, be

I never thought I would compromise
I never thought I would compromise
I never thought I would compromise

Let's unite tonight
We shouldn't fight
Embrace you tight
Let's unite tonight

I thrive best hermit style
With a beard and a pipe
And a parrot on each side
But now I can't do this without you

I never thought I would compromise
I never thought I would compromise
I never thought I would compromise

Let's unite tonight
We shouldn't fight
Embrace you tight
Let's unite tonight

One hand love the other
So much on me

Let's unite tonight
We shouldn't fight
Embrace you tight
Let's unite tonight

Let's unite tonight
We shouldn't fight
Embrace you tight
Let's
Ooohhhh ooohh

When will my fields yield their crops!?!? I have sowed but nothing comes up from the endless landscape.

Is it Karma? Is it a slow, forseen d eath by drought? Or is it my lack of patience with the Eastern world afar and with the Western world near?

I feel as though I am stuck in a thorny weed with nothing surrounding me but pretty ideas.  Trapped. 

FuCk! FUcK! fuCK! FUCK!

This cunt-ry sucks!  Bush being in office for another 4 years provides me with more incentive to leave this cunt-ry we call the USA and work abroad in Korea.  While all the jobs are leaving the USA and the fat, lazy, rich folks profit over thier global enterpises, I will leave knowing that I am not apart of the 51% of the evil, selfish, cruel Americans and make my own path as a separate entity!

Wow....since Thursday Night many things have changed.  I am back together with Zach in full-force.  He decided that it would be best if we remained together until our due departure...Me to Korea & He to Argentina.  This was one of the many options in my head but I wasn't as determined to propagate it as he had done on Thursday.

With this said, We will be committed for the next 3 months until we are both on our separate airplanes on our own individual adventures.  This bring both happiness and certainity for the next few months and proper closure for the future...(menaing no strings attached except for close friendship). 

So far this has been a good decision--this means snuggling up during the cold, California rainy season and the sharing of our dreams in the mornings and before sleeping at night.   It also means that we will be enjoying each others company in ever y moment possible until the end.  We promised each other that no matter how close we remain we will not carry that romance overseas, as to replicate the painful issues that happened in 2003.   We also promised to remain friends...and when we are back together in the same city at some point in the future...attempt to charm one another (if single and available) to see what possibilities could evolve into involvement.

So this is the plan...let us see how it pans out over the next few months...

Wow...I can't believe how fast I am feeling better...almost two weeks and I am almost COMPLETELY over the break up with Zach.  Usually the process takes a few months months and I feel as though I did it in a whirlwind of time.  I must have come along way on my own (and with the support of friends and family) deciding not to be depressed, disturbed and devastated...

What brings the Peace in large pieces?  Just simple...thought in motion, AND no stagnancy....Just pure motion.  Pushing for Korea.  Pushing for a better life.  Pushing for interesting thouhts and career paths.  Pushing to save money for grad  school...and of course the potential travels in-between.

Dating has also helped...that is dating my friends...

Wee! Wee!~

I am off....

As you well-connected, but far fetched folks know...I am no longer a unit with Zach.

We are out of our box and into the world.  This being our first week apart has been easy as the week has progressed but the struggle within still takes its toll from time to time.

There were so many signs over the past few months that dictated our seperation...but never so many signs were shown clear until the months of August and September. 

So, as I contemplate what is best for me and as I negotiate with Zach what is best for us...so many things come into the air and I find it hard to  place all my eggs in the same basket...this is where I need your support and this is where I need time and space to contemplate more:

1) Will I leave for Korea? This really depends on if I can get an E-2 visa.  Karma will tell me this with time...once I apply to a school we will see if the sponsor provides me with a visa.

2) Will I leave with Zach to Argentina in February 2005? This all depends on how our friendship goes during the next few months...and it also depends on if I am rejected from Korean Immigration and my visa is not issued...and therefore denied do to Karmic reactions. This will take anywhere between one month to a few months to figure out (fingers crossed).

3) Will I find a new job on the East Coast?---Where things are different and my history with Zach does not exist...it will make the time apart easier for me--with no memories and new surroundings, new places.... 

I have 3 different options as you can see...Korea, Argentina and somewhere else--away from San Francisco. 

Time will tell me which place is allocated towards me.  But it feels so strange preparing for each one on different wavelengths and at different times...

Wish me luck on discovering the rightful, chosen path. 

Love...

Dan

BTW... Break ups SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!

NO MATTER WHO MAKES THE CALL! IT SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!

And i think the worst type of break up is when both of you do it seperate, but EQUAL!!!  Although, it sounds nice and pleasant it hurts deep down at the core.  At least when you break it off with the person you love, you move on fast and the other person is the one who takes most the pain home.  And when you are that other person on the other side it sucks because you have to learn to hate your ex-partner who broke up with you and the pain of rejection sticks around for months.  But leaving eachother because you know its best for both of you REALLY SUCKS!!!! At this point, you both are mixed up and want to be together, but just can't.

My advice to you all is to NOT avoid romantic love as it happens, believe me I tried so many times early on to break things with Zach before they got serious, and I can say sticking with him was the greatest thing I have ever taught myself.  

Instead embrace LOVE...because it was well worth the highs and lows...love conquers all! And it was a great 2 years! But the aftermath of mixed feelings is what kills. So be aware and be prepared...

So, Zach has been gone for almost 8 days and I have only 2 more days to wait out the withdrawl wall of sexual outlet and the freedom to be "simply" happy being me.  Although, it was startling to be alone on my own for a while I feel like I have grown to adjust to the sanity of solitude.  It is as though my independent-self has emerged and my will power to do the things I like most on my own have become a priority.  So much has happened in my life since he has left which shoves away the "Zach and I" spotlight from center stage.  It is kind of scary and seeing him.  Only time will tell what the future between us will bring. 

Wow, I feel as though my sheltered seedling self has grown in abundance now that the shade of my lover has gone away and my love has been sent out to others on various levels. 

But this dichomatic trip will end soon...as the Weekend arrives.

And I know the possibility of falling into things will most likley trigger when I see him.

Hey Everyone,

I have just arrived back in Costa Rica, after roughing it for 7 days in Nicaragua. Zach and I traveled through San Juan Del Sur, Granada, Managua, Esteli, Jinotega and Matagalpa.  We also spent 2 nights in Mira Flor which is a cloud forest and natrual reserve in the high mountains of Northern Nicaragua.  It was fabulous.  But iam glad the "roughing it portion of the trip is almost over.

We are in transit at the moment in a town called Puntarenas.  We will be taking a ferry to Moctezuma tomorrow morning for ac ouple of days where I can rest and get some hot, sweaty, morning beach action with the locals.  Maybe a little volleyball and a little voyerism (dreaming).  I hope all is well...and imagine me sipping Pina Coladas on the beaches of Costa Rica with all these hot dark, golden brown boys walking by in their speedos.

Yummmmm....

Love,

Dan
