Dont Know Why / Lonestar / Peace

"when I saw the break of day
I wished that I could fly away
instead of kneeling in the sand
catching teardrops in my hand
my heart is drenched in wine
but you'll be on my mind
forever"

Layer Nine - NUMBER OF: Drugs taken illegally:  didn't I already answer this question?
People I could trust with my life: family and really close friends
CD's I own: I used to own a lot of CDs & tapes (nearly 400), but I don't go on as many mad music shopping sprees anymore now that me and Kazaa have gotten really chummy (3,500+ mp3s and counting)... whoops, another mark for my ever growing criminal record. 
Piercings: 2
Tattoos: none, but I'd like to get one someday
Scars on my body: my upper arm, my leg, my foot... I was a rambunctious child and tended to fall down and bump into people and things a lot. Sometimes, I still do (old habits die hard, I guess).
