Comment:

There's a lot of backstory for this particular mix. It was my senior year and I was looking for a date to the prom. I wanted to ask the one girl who I was very close with. Out of nowhere, she asked me to go to the prom with me, amazingly. I was so excited- I paid for both tickets, photos, and I bought her a dozen red roses in a box. I was going to knock her socks off. The prom was a disaster. She was late, the limo was very late, and pretty much it all went downhill after that. She was a complete bitch to me the entire night. She avoided talking to me the whole night, minus short replies. She ignored me and embarrassed me in front of my frie-nds. It was awful. Our frien-ds at the ta)ble could notice it too, it was errie. I spent the whole night either alone or bored or completely destroyed. That cunt did a number on me, on my dime. I would later turn this whole fiasco into a short story I wrote for college.

"She Speaks To Me" pretty much sums it up- so much so it's scary! "In the mist of all the heartache, look for the roses" and "Did you find the roses?" This part reminds me of that prom night when she left the roses at my house and had to get them after the prom. She didn't know where they were. Also the part of "Why won't you SPEAK TO ME?" also hit home for me. "Roses" was a big single for Outkast at the time and this also is a bizarre coincidence. She was cold, "Cold As Ice". Atreyu and Bleeding Through were big around the creation of this mix so they are on her with damn appropriate songs. There's a lot of Glassjaw on here- they write great breakup songs, even though it wasn't a breakup. "Don't Stay" has lyrics that remind me of when this dumb chick came back to my house months later to see her frie-nd (my sister). I made sure I kicked her out of my house. Another scary coincidence: the theme of my prom was Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life) by Green Day. Billie Joe from Green Day said he wrote this after this girl he liked left him to go far away. This is not necessarily a happy song. This is the only mix I ever made that was specifically made because of one person. I sincerely hate her to this day. But whatever, because I bounced back and did better than her eventually. This mix was made as a bitter reaction to a devastating event that truly befuddles me to this day. Dumb bitch.
