so look away look away
hide your eyes from the land where i lie cold
look away look away
from the lies in the stories that were told

Here i sit. Voting starts in 7 hours. A very rare Saturday night where i sleep at home. Works out good thoughto throw Nikos out tomorrow. I've tried to walk as heavy as possible and slam things to wake him up, but i'm not sure it's worked. But i turned off the heat – it's so warm in here! I hope the little fucker freezes during the night. Then i can put him out with the trash.
Went to Escorial with Kristen and saw the old monastery- really beautiful. We had a lot of fun. It was woodsy and full of nature. It's always nice to get out of the City when you can, The buildings are so old! There were gorgeous gardens an a really old plaza. It's easy to grow immune to such cool old buildings here and take them for granted.. It was about 60 F, 14 C – which was downright warm after walking uphill.
But it's a Franco town. All the old geezers came out to watch Real Madrid at 20:00 on TV and there were signs everywhere to vote PP. I hate the right. They are a bunch of hypocrites who hide behind their plastic god. It's enough to make you want to cut Nikos' throat.
I love green olives. Just thought you might like to know.
Long live the Republic!
We made some friends
but now it's done
I always knew
that we would never find the sun-Big Country
