Best of the Oughts, SAD!

We're quite happy to announce that SAD is the official winner of the Red Mosquito, Best of the Oughts Tournament!  Just think!  This gem was almost left on the cutting room floor!







All the photographs are peeling
And colors turn to gray, he's stayin'
In his room with memories for days, he faced
An undertow of futures laid to waste, embraced
By the loss of one he could not replace
 
And there's no reason that she'd pass
And there is no god with the plan, it's sad
And his loneliness is proof, it's sad
He could only love you, it's sad
 
The door swings through a passing fable
A fate we may delay, we say
Holding on, to live within our embrace
 
Eleven nights, he laid in bed
Hoping that dreams would bring her back, it's sad
And his holiness is proof, it's sad
He could only love you, it's sad
 
Holding his last breath, believing
He'll make his way
But she's not forgotten
He's haunted
He's searching for escape
 
If just one wish could bring her back, it's sent
And his loneliness is proof, it's sad
He will always love you, it's sad



Keep your eyes peeled for THE BEST OF THE 90S!!
