on john lennon's anniversary

around this time of night 25 years ago, John Lennon was gunned down in front of the Dakota Building in New York

he's been dead longer than i've been on the planet, but it's still strange to think of him being gone, of his dying like that

it was so damn pointless, such a waste

i've just been thinking of him the last while, and listening to some records

it'd get you down really
