billy

found these pictures whilst scooting round my folks hard drive the other day. i sure did love my billy. my 18th birthday present. the greatest beetle in the whole world ever. what a legend car. we used to totter around durbs. back end of the 90's and early 2000's. to varsity. to the beach. to football. to crash. to crowded house overport. to jonny's. hooking unsuspecting scooters on the back bumper. raming shocked mates up the backside (of their car). backing into invisible walls at 5am in the morning.

can't be held responsible
she was touching her face
i won't be held responsible
she fell in love in the first place

driving. sleeping. waking. laughing. singing. fighting. crying. screaming. hugging. dancing. drinking. vomiting. sexing. hot-boxing. high-fiving. thinking. pondering. smiling. loving. living.

for the life of me i cannot remember what made us think
that we were wise and we'd never compromise
for the life of me i cannot believe
we'd ever die for these sins
we were merely freshmen

i sure was bummed when billy was sold.
