Shuffle
I shuffled my iTunes playlist and using the top 5 songs, I'm going to explain (lyrically) why I like the song... and how I feel at the moment. mmm. I'm in a word-mood today.
1.
A house of fire, a wall of stone
a door that once was open-
an empty face and empty bones
Who ate your heart? You're cold inside.
You're not the one I hoped for...
*Keane "Untitled 1"
2.
How many fates turn around in the overtime?
Ballerinas that have fins that you'll never find.
You thought that you were the bomb, yeah,
well, so did I.
You say you don't want it - again & again,
but you don't really mean it.
You say you don't want it, the circus we're in,
but you don't really mean it.
*Tori Amos "Spark"
3.
Away with these nightmares.
Away with suburbia, shake down away.
You marry a role and you give up your soul
'til you break down.
It's me and the moon, she says.
I got no trouble with that, but
I am a butterfly and you wouldn't let me die.
*Something Corporate "Me and the Moon"
4.
So come on, baby, let me show you how.
The less you know the more I comprehend.
You don't have to drag me down, I descend.
I go to the trouble and I like it.
That's where I'll be.
Trouble is just like love: if it's half the way,
it's all I can see.
*Shawn Colvin "Trouble"
5.
Hey, your glass is empty. It's a hell of a long way home.
Why don't you let me take you? It's no good to go alone.
I never would have opened up, but you seemed so real to me.
And after all the bullshit I've heard, it's refreshing not to see
I don't have to pretend - she doesn't expect it from me.
Don't tell me I haven't been good to you.
Don't tell me I have never been there for you.
Don't tell me why... nothing is good enough.
*Sarah McLachlan "Good Enough"
Ah! Giant Eagle today. Rip my effin' face off.
School starting on Monday.
Inspection/Emission due this month.
boo.
Oh these little earthquakes... here we go again. Oh these little earthquakes. Doesn't take much to rip us into pieces.
