Dammit I Changed Again

Hey, come inside

While I stand here acting bold

Can't stand to feel this way

Clear out the cobwebs in my soul

This time I turn around

And things have changed

Now I don't feel the same

Yeah I start a fight

I can't defend

One more time

Dammit, I changed again

Now I don't see

Things the way I did before

Can't stand to feel this way

Things I feel yesterday

Don't matter anymore

It doesn't make any sense

To feel so different day to day

(Can't stand to feel this way)

When nothing's changed except for-

Next time I turn around

And things have changed

Now I don't feel the same

Yeah I start a fight

I can't defend

One more time

Dammit, I changed again

Turn around

Things have changed

Now I don't feel the same

Yeah I start a fight

I can't defend

One more time

Dammit, I changed again

Turn around

Things have changed

Now I don't feel the same

Yeah I start a fight

I can't defend

One more time

Dammit, I changed again

Turn around

Things have changed

Now I don't feel the same

Yeah I turn around

I can't defend

One more time

Dammit, I changed again

I see it!

Toronto Argonauts: 2022 Grey Cup Champions

REGINA — All week long, the Toronto Argonauts heard about a team trying to make history.

On Sunday at the 109th Grey Cup, they decided to take control of that narrative and stunned the two-time defending champion Winnipeg Blue Bombers 24-23.

McLeod Bethel-Thompson made 15 of 28 passes for 203 yards before dislocating his thumb in the fourth-quarter. He was replaced by backup QB Chad Kelly who made 4-6 passes for 43 yards and had a key scramble that helped set up a touchdown. Argos’ defensive lineman Robbie Smith made a game-saving field goal block to secure the dramatic win, giving the Boatmen their 18th Grey Cup.

Zach Collaros was 14-23 for 183 yards, a touchdown and an interception on an injured ankle, as the Bombers’ bid to become the CFL’s first three-peat champion in 42 years fell short.

Janarion Grant set a Grey Cup record with his 102-yard fourth-quarter punt return touchdown.

The Argos triumphed in front of a raucous, Winnipeg-friendly crowd at Mosaic Stadium, which saw the Twisted Tea Halftime Show that featured Jordan Davis, Tyler Hubbard of Florida Georgia Line and Canada’s own Josh Ross keep fans entertained for the entirety of their Sunday night.

It was Bethel-Thompson and the Argos that opened the scoring. Stuck at Winnipeg’s 39-yard line, the Argos got a 46-yard field goal from Boris Bede at 4:44 to open the game’s scoring.

Winnipeg’s defence put its stamp on the game next, when Jackson Jeffcoat sacked Bethel-Thompson and linebacker Jesse Briggs recovered at the Bombers’ 49-yard line. The play snuffed out a drive that featured a Harris run that saw him hurdle the Bombers’ defence to get extra yards; a play that Harris let his former teammates on the Blue and Gold sideline hear about.

The Bombers came through the first quarter with their offence struggling. Collaros and his offensive teammates generated just one first down for 29 net yards of offence.

The Argos opened the second quarter with a promising drive that came to an end with a Bede 36-yard field goal attempt that sailed to his right and yielded a single. That pushed the score to 4-0 at 2:56.

Collaros’ first Collaros-like play of the game came on the drive that followed Bede’s miss. He worked from the pocket and connected with Dalton Schoen on a 39-yard play that got the Bombers to the Argos’ 31-yard line. Dakota Prukop came in to relieve Collaros on short yardage and eventually powered his way into the end zone, capping an eight-play, 70-yard drive. Marc Liegghio‘s convert went through at 7:31, putting the Bombers in front 7-4.

The Argos evened up the game on the ensuing drive. While they didn’t find the end zone, Bede got a second attempt from 36 yards and put it through the uprights to tie the game 7-7 at 11:13.

Collaros and the Bombers tried to close the half out with a bang. After failing to connect with Schoen on a play where he was thinking end zone, Collaros tested his ankle with a rush out of the pocket that set up Liegghio’s first field goal of the night. Liegghio’s 45-yarder made it 10-7 with 21 seconds left in the half.

The Argos were able to get Bede out for a 52-yard field goal attempt with four seconds left, but the kicker saw his second attempt of the night miss the mark. The Bombers took their three-point edge into the half.

Toronto tried to leave its offensive struggles in the first half. Bethel-Thompson led a four-play, 34-yard drive that finally got the team into the end zone, with running back A.J. Ouellette breaking through at 3:09 of the third quarter. Bede’s convert put the Argos up 14-10.

Collaros responded with a lengthy 13-play 7:12 drive that tested him as his team gradually made its way up the field. He showed elusiveness getting out of the pocket to complete a pass to Drew Wolitarsky. He took a sack from Shawn Oakman (that came back on an offside call) that saw him take weight on his right leg. On second-and-seven, he found Schoen again to get to Toronto’s 22-yard line. Once again, Prukop finished off the drive from a yard out. Liegghio’s convert put the Bombers up 17-14 at 11:31.

If the Argos sought to make a statement to open the third, the Bombers used the first play of the fourth quarter to make theirs.

Grant took John Haggerty‘s 51-yard punt back 102 yards for a key return touchdown to help open up a 23-14 Bombers’ lead. Grant’s return touchdown — his second of the post-season — set a Grey Cup record. Liegghio was unable to connect on the convert.

Toronto looked to respond but once again was stranded on Winnipeg’s side of the field. Bede made his third field goal of the night at 2:20 — another 36-yard shot — to get his team back within six, at 23-17.

If the increasingly loud fans decked out in blue behind the Bombers’ bench had started the celebration, they were slowed when Prukop was intercepted by Shaq Richardson, setting the Argos up on their own 20-yard line. With Bethel-Thompson holding his wrist on the Argos’ sideline, the team turned to backup Kelly.

Argos’ returner Javon Leake appeared to have a touchdown run in him himself, but was thwarted at Winnipeg’s 31-yard line by special teamer Shayne Gauthier. Kelly returned to lead the offence and had an impressive run from the pocket that got a penalty-addled drive back on track at Winnipeg’s 16-yard line. Ouellette took a handoff from the five-yard line and ran in for his second touchdown of the night, tying the game. Bede’s convert put the Argos back in front 24-23 with 3:24 left in the game.

Collaros took the field at his own 36, looking for a way to get his team back in front. His first pass of the drive was reeled in by Muamba, who’d narrowly missed out on a first-half pick. Kelly and the Argos went back on the field at the Bombers’ 43-yard line looking for the win.

Bede returned to the field to line up a 43-yarder and had it blocked by Nick Hallett, allowing the Bombers to get the ball back on their own 29 with under two minutes to play. On second-and-five, Argos’ d-lineman Robbie Smith snuck around the edge and sacked Collaros, forcing the Bombers into a must-have third down. Brought down again, an Argos’ facemask call gave Collaros life.

At his own 41-yard line, Collaros found Greg Ellingson for the first down he was looking for, moving the Bomers to the Toronto 45-yard line. A Chris Edwards knockdown sent the Bombers back into third down, forcing the team to turn to Liegghio for a 47-yard attempt that was blocked by Smith, making up for his earlier penalty.

The Argos closed out the final seconds of the game celebrating in victory formation, while their sideline celebrated their historic win in front of a stunned Mosaic Stadium crowd.

new face

i don't often walk these streets of my town

alone, but when the cat's tail closed for the

night, i chose to go to the statue of Barbatos

to make a final prayer, so that i could go

to sleep under his protection and his divine grace,

or so i thought. i saw a man on the hands,

looking at me, but, where was his face!?

then i realized who he was.

ayato. that was his name.

but where was his sister?

and why was he here?

he descended down gracefully before slowly walking

past me with those deep purple eyes on a complexion

of pitch black. i found you, he said. come here.

i need you. i...i...you...

i said, no, don't touch me! please, don't!

and i ran. with as much energy as i could

but he was too quick, so agile, so effortless.

i tripped, and fell, backed in a corner,

crying, i fell to my knees, in tears,

and i said, please, don't do this to me,

i...i...i'll never get to say goodbye to klee

or anyone, or even you, so please...don't...

but he rushed at me so quick

and i let out a very loud scream

with all the energy i had left

before I felt a wave of light

shatter into a million pieces

and everything became silent

for nothing.

diona.

Diona.

DIONA!

time passed.

someone called my name

as I felt a barrier of black

shatter into a billion pieces

as I heard my name

called out by a gentleman

who felt the whole world

was cutting him down

and i could not stand to see that

so my eyes opened...

Diona. are you okay? my eyes opened. it was him.

a..ya...to...i whispered. but, i thought you...

i gasped as I felt a warm embrace and a grown man

crying like he lost his child in a calamitous

accident, a young daughter worth saving.

thank the shogun you are still with us, with me,

he said, sobbing, gasping for air as the tears

came out. Diona. oh Diona. our Diona...

Ayato, it's okay, you don't have to be so dramatic,

i am fine. i am here. i am here. he said, Diona,

please forgive me for everything i did to you,

scaring you like that, but, i need to explain why

i did this, and why i regret it. i have to own up

to these circumstances. will you? i nodded and

whispered, yes. and i have all of teyvat as my

witness, he said. and the door opened,

and one by one, all of the Travelers companions

from mondstadt, liyue, inazuma and sumeru came in.

diona! cried Klee, hugging me, crying. what happened?

I was worried about you, when I heard you screaming!

i thought something happened. klee, i'm sorry i scared

you like that, i am here and i am fine. klee said,

okay, but don't do that again, you hear me? i nodded.

then ayato rose up and said, everyone, please, i

must explain what happened. he took a deep breath,

collected his thoughts, and he said, i had been

battling an inner demon that was burning me up

inside. it caused me to tear at my face and my sanity.

and i roared, looking high and low to find someone to give

me a cure to save me.

he turned to me and said, diona. you heal people,

correct? i said, yes. then i needed your healing touch

but you thought i was going to do unspeakable things

to you that would be an unwashable slight on

my honor,

my dignity,

my existence as a man

of principles.

but when you cried to the heavens, the darkness in

my face shattered and i could feel all feeling and

emotion and normalcy return before i could even

come close to laying a sliver of my blade upon you.

diona, you saved me, but i wanted to make sure

that you were not sacrificed in helping me win

this fight with myself. i want to thank you,

and also tell you i am sorry for everything.

i said, ayato, thank you for bringing me back, thank

you, everyone, for being with me. ayato said,

i love you,

my sister loves you,

all my brothers and sisters

fighting the good fight

love you,

all of teyvat loves you,

klee loves you,

and most importantly,

the traveler who is with me

loves you. so don't ever leave us.

your face is too cute to ever be lost.

my ears perked and my tail wagged.

and he said, how will i make it up to

you to forgive me for doing all this?

i said,

bubble tea.

i want to drink it.

he gave me a big cup with a straw

i gave it a good sip

hey, this is delicious!

you must give me the recipe!

he gave me a book.

this book has every bubble tea recipe

made by the Kamisato clan

for 69 generations, said Ayato.

Nice! I exclaimed.

It is yours. Use it to make business

booming at the Cat's Tail, make it taste

as good as we all remember, for tonight

and this point forward, we will share in the memory

under a new face!

everyone cheered, i got out of bed

jumped into Ayato's arms and said,

what are we waiting for? let's make

some boba! and the drinks flowed,

and Venti sang his songs and there was

plenty of dancing and stories told.

and Ayato and I went outside.

the heavens parted and the moonlight

shined on both of us. he said,

Diona Katzlein, do you feel better now?

and I said to Ayato,

when you have a new face like that,

i feel invincible...

and i love it.

yes.

i want some new face.

Face Down

Hey girl you know you drive me crazy

One look puts the rhythm in my hand

Still I'll never understand why you hang around

I see what's going down

Cover up with make up in the mirror

Tell yourself it's never gonna happen again

You cry alone and then he swears he loves you

Do you feel like a man

When you push her around?

Do you feel better now, as she falls to the ground?

Well I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's got to end

As your lies crumble down, a new life she has found!

A pebble in the water makes a ripple effect

Every action in this world will bear a consequence

If you wait around forever you will surely drown

I see what's going down

I see the way you go and say you're right again

Say you're right again

Heed my lecture

Do you feel like a man

When you push her around?

Do you feel better now, as she falls to the ground?

Well I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's got to end

As your lies crumble down, a new life she has found!

Face down in the dirt

She said "This doesn't hurt!"

She said "I finally had enough!"

Face down in the dirt

She said "This doesn't hurt!"

She said "I finally had enough!"

One day she will tell you that she has had enough

It's coming round again

Do you feel like a man

When you push her around?

Do you feel better now, as she falls to the ground?

Well I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's got to end

As your lies crumble down, a new life she has found!

Do you feel like a man

When you push her around?

Do you feel better now, as she falls to the ground?

Well I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's got to end

As your lies crumble down, a new life she has found!

Face down in the dirt

She said "This doesn't hurt!"

She said "I finally had enough!"
