When you don't know what you want
You end up finding that you haunt your own life
I'm drifting.
I tried to pay attention. But one day Bert told me they thought I should take a break, because of what happened. I didn’t argue. Should I have argued?
Nathaniel was so careful of me. They all were, even Jean-Claude.
I wonder if he’s sorry Micah's dead.
You're the daylight ghost that creeps
You're the empty city streets
Micah's dead. Because I wasn't fast enough to save him. I'm not sure what to do now.
All I want is him back.

Date: 2006-03-06 01:35 am (UTC)Is that the line, 'I tried to pay attention.'?
That doesn't read to me that she tried to suppress her feelings. Well, maybe vaguely. It seems more as though she simply failed to pay attention that day that Bert said go home. But I agree, if Anita were to have a complete breakdown, what you describe here is a pre~~ty darn good description. You even added that line of doubting Jean-Claude...which I think is very in character for Anitia.
