Breaking the Girl

Apr 19, 2006 19:30

I'm sitting here listening to a few dozen RHCP songs on random, just listening to the lyrics and feeling the emotions, admiring the poets soul if you will, yes, release your inner emo...

and I keep coming back to this song, and "I Could of Lied." I've shared alot of similiar life experiences with Kiedis and have always been able to relate to him and his music on a profoundly personal level, except for this one, until recently.

Its funny in his autobiography he shares the inspiration for his songs, and its all girls he's met over his life, so it's not surprising that every song of theirs relates to a girl I know or have met...even if only for a fleeting moment.

Scar Tissue is Willa's song...
I Could of Lied is Tu's.
Zephyr Song is Bianca's/Samira's/Erin's.
By The Way is Kimleah's.
Otherside is Willowsong's.

Soul to Squeeze I wanted to be Vanessa's.....but in reality, it is mine...

The one song I never wanted to personally experience with a girl I know, is Breaking the Girl...and I know it is Vanessa's. I've always known.

I am a man
Cut from the know
Rarely do friends
Come and then go
She was a girl
Soft but estranged
We were the two
Our lives rearranged
Feeling so good that day
A feeling of love that day

Twisting and turning
Your feelings are burning
You're breaking the girl
She meant you no harm
Think you're so clever
But now you must sever
You're breaking the girl
He loves no one else

Raised by my dad
Girl of the day
He was my man
That was the way
She was the girl
Left alone
Feeling the need
To make me her home
I don't know what when or why
The twilight of love had arrived

Twisting and turning
Your feelings are burning
You're breaking the girl
She meant you no harm
Think you're so clever
But now you must sever
You're breaking the girl
He loves no one else

Oh and 18 days now...
