Courtney Love with Hole at Lollapalooza ‘95. Note the bandage: she didn’t play guitar due to an injury from punching Kathleen Hanna in the face backstage.
Letters to Cleo - I See
I think I’ll close my eyes and wait as the world goes by.
Won’t see the same old thing, it’s out there everywhere.
The thousand wishes I have had in my life come true.
After they are gone I say, “what did I do that for?”
I see this world going in circles
around all around me.
I’ll end up mad before life is through with me.
Guilty old me.
I think I’ll pay my dues and drive real fast to stand in line.
Then I’ll wrack my brains to find some chaos.
As the image forms I’ll let it swallow up my mind.
Time will pass I’ll ask myself “this is a joke right?”
Thinking and thinking, thoughtless, but it sometimes seems.
I think too much, too hard and it confuses me.
Rectify myself to all the things I thought were real
Or I’ll lock the bedroom door and simply stay at home.

- Anonymous asked: Why are like 75% of the other punks I know, myself included, fucking depressed? I mean in a clincal sense, not in a "man, Against Me! signed to a major label" sense.
- isthispunkrock: Does this really sound like music that appeals to the mentally stable?
Of all the things that I believed in my teens, I’m left with unread books and badly made zines, some might-have-beens that somehow even yet bring a spring to my step
