I was driving to the movies

last night and was completely engrossed by the music playing on shuffle on my iPod. The opening guitar riff of Sweet Disposition by The Temper Trap started playing and the biggest smile came on my face. Like shit. This is my song and this is what I need right now. And it was another one of those moments. They've been happening a lot lately, mostly when I'm driving my car and always when a good song comes on. And I literally thought that if I lost control or if I lost concentration and got into a crazy accident and died on Route 1 that I would be okay with it, because Sweet Disposition would be the final song my ears would hear. And then I started thinking about people who died on the road and if they were listening to music when it happened, and what songs were playing. I know most of the time the song playing has no importance whatsoever when it comes to someone dying in a car accident but I still wonder what kind of songs they were. Like maybe it was something really angry and emo or maybe it was about having sex or maybe it was classical music. Maybe the song had nothing to do with whatever big thing was going on in their life or that moment or maybe the song was the very definition of what was going on. I'd say that for me, Sweet Disposition defines my mentality regarding this stupidness that is going in my life right now. Just keep going. Live like it's your last. Don't stop till it's over. GO BIG OR GO HOME... hahah. So in a way, it'd be a very fitting song to be playing when I die.

Lol. That's the morbid(?) thought of the day.
