John The Baptist
Hey...welcome home...
I've got a little wine
Some Marvin Gaye...
So come on and taste me
Come on and take me, I'm yours...
Dance, little sister, dance...
This is my girl you're talking to
There isn't anything I wouldn't do
So take me...taste me...erase me...
I'm yours, let's get it on...
Anything for a lover
Anything for a friend
I only want to see you happy
Baby, can we pretend?
I'd give anything to see you dance
I'd give anything to see you smile
But baby doesn't want just anything
She wants everything...
Hey...welcome home...
I got a little wine
I got a little time...
So come on and take me
Come on and taste me
Come on and waste me
Come on erase me...
I'm yours, let's get it on...
I've got the devil in me, girl...
There it is. That is the song that inspired my now infamous quote: "I am John the fucking Baptist and I've got the devil in me." I'm not sure I can fully explain what it means, or how it came to be my motto...my thought processes on that night (Hallowe'en 1998) were somewhat confused and in some sort of..."shock", if you will. I was feeling rather strange that night; something came over me. I felt...cold...aloof...not quite myself. No, that last isn't accurate...I felt more like my true self than I ever had before. It was as if I'd been...incomplete until that night. I had a great sense of calm come over me...the void in my heart closed...I was whole. I no longer loved her...I resolved to never let affairs of the heart cloud my vision, interfere with my plans (I sound like a conspirator or something, I know). I saw my "master plan" start to unfold...and it continues to unfold. Despite a few minor lapses, I am still on the path I set for myself that night; and if I start to stray from my path, I need do nothing but remember...to feel the way I felt on that greatest of nights. If I can remember, the rest is simple. Hopefully this explained my "motto" a little; if not, I apologize. I have no idea how else to explain it.
As if this weren't enough insane rambling, you can check out some of my personal writings as well. Check them out...they're pretty incoherent in some places also. :o)
