So, I've forbidden myself to listen to sad music, and I didn't expect for a Madonna song to do it to me, but this one kind of waylaid me (I recently got a copy of Music, and didn't know this was on that album). Anyway, I'd like to remember this, so I'm posting it
:
GONE
(written by madonna, damian le gassick, and nicola young)
Selling out
Is not my thing
Walk away
I won’t be broken again
I’m not
I’m not what you think
Dream away your life
Someone else’s dream
Nothing
Equals nothing
Letting go
Is not my thing
Walk away
Won’t let it happen again
I’m not
I’m not very smart
Why should I feel sad
For what I never had
Nothing
Equals nothing
Turn to stone
Lose my faith
I’ll be gone
Before it happens
Selling out
Is not my thing
Walk away
I won’t be broken again
I won’t
I won’t fall apart
Dream away your life
Dream away your dreams
Nothing
Equals nothing
Turn to stone
Lose my faith
I’ll be gone
Before it happens
Turn to stone
Lose my faith
I’ll be gone
Before it happens
I find it poetic, and I know soon my own words'll come bubbling up again. Nothing like some cathartic writing to fuel some of the best creativity for me.
