Send "Basil's Kite" Ringtone to Cell

when i fly and look down i'd swear that's not me. that's not me. forget your taught talking and lessening lessons. you strut like a stutter. dumb loser user boy so used to the abuse can't see how he's been used. pokes me in the side. mistakes my gagging for a smile. i can't fly till he can fly.

    General Comment:I always thought this song has something to do with drug abuse. Flying and looking down, strut like a stutter, user, abuse etc. but I also know that Basil was a friend of their's and a part of that who NW Chicago Emo scene 10 years ago. None of those people struck me as genuine drug attics.

    General Comment:It seems to me that this song is more about accepting yourself than anything else. It's like when you see yourself or hear your voice or something and you think "that's not me." Almost all of Cap'n Jazz's lyrics tended to deal with adolescent emotions like this, and always in the most perfect ways.
