Why Once upon the 90's there was an alternative webring, now defunct, by the name of Love, Lies, Bleeding. The username was lovelies, and I took to using that not as an online monicker, but as a username to a lot of web-services. Livejournal was one of them. Lovelies are the lies told in the name of love. What The Elton John song Love Lies Bleeding The Australian band Love Lies Bleeding Any of the dozen movies titled Love Lies Bleeding The flower Amaranthus caudatus, Love-lies-bleeding Any attempt to pluralize and nouni-fy the word 'lovely' And I do not hope for a better world for anyone In fact, I want my pain to be inflicted on others I want no one to escape But even after admitting this, There is no catharsis My punishment continues to elude me And I gain no deeper knowledge of myself No new knowledge can be extracted from my telling This confession has meant nothing -- Brett Easton Ellis |
