but some of the lyrics from fake plastic trees by radiohead really hit home about my relationship with my ex wbpd. actually, a lot of radiohead lyrics coincide with these sentiments....

anyone else a radiohead fan?

Wow when you said "fake plastic trees" I nearly broke down... my first fiance who passed away, we used to bond over that song early in our relationship. Radiohead are great, I used to listen to them all the time.

it's these lines that really get me:

"She lives with a broken man
A cracked polystyrene man
Who just crumbles and burns....

She looks like the real thing
She tastes like the real thing
My fake plastic love
But I can't help the feeling
I could blow through the ceiling
If I just turn and run

It wears me out, it wears me out
It wears me out, it wears me out

If I could be who you wanted
If I could be who you wanted all the time

All the time..."

sorry to almost send you into emotional turmoil, spiky! i was in it myself when i made this post.
