Will You Swoon As I Croon..?
I haven't been dwelling on things a lot lately, and part of my secret is not listening to much music. Music has always been the primary avenue to my emotions, and I sort of like it that way, but it means that whenever I'm feeling something strong, especially something bad, it will always be exacerbated by music.
I put on Roxy Music today for the first time in a while, and I was reminded how much I like this song, and I couldn't help identifying with it a lot, even though I'm trying not to dwell on the stuff that I identify with in it.
Buttercup daisies
And most anything
They wither and fade
After blossom in Spring
Time conquers innocence
Pride takes a fall
In knowledge lies wisdom
That's all
Everything changes
Weather blows hot or cold
Through alchemy iron turns gold
Quicksilver baby
So hard to pin down
Oh when are you coming around?
Hopelessly grounded
I walk through the streets
Remembering how we spent time
Hopefully yearning that someday we'll meet
But when will we, how could we - why? Oh my!
Fashion houses ladies
Need plenty loose change
When the latest creation
Is last year's fab-rave
Thought patterns hazy
This auto-style age
Will lady luck smile old and sage?
She knows that ......
Never again, no, will I give up my heart
To gamble with fate is my crime
Nevertheless love, it's all here in my book
I'd write it but I don't have much time
You see, I know it sounds crazy
But what can I do?
I've fallen head over heels, over you
Chameleon colour
All phases of moon
The shifting of planets
And leopard spots too
As destiny wills it
So seasons will change
Just like you
PS: Wtf is up with Psalm on Stranded, anyway? I mean, does EVERYBODY have to go through a pathetic, mewling christian phase? EVERYBODY? The sad part is that a lot of those songs (Psalm, Word on a Wing) are actually good, but I can't stand to listen to them because the lyrics are beyond annoying.
