Where*s the soul, I wanna know...

I think Third Eye Blind*s song, Motorcycle Drive By is about an Aquarius.



Summer time and the wind is blowing outside
In lower Chelsea and I don't know
What I'm doing in this city
The sun is always in my eyes
It crashes through the windows
And I'm sleeping on the couch
When I came to visit you
That's when I knew
That I could never have you
I knew that before you did
Still I'm the one who's stupid

And there's this burning
Like there's always been
I've never been so alone
And I've never been so alive

Visions of you on a motorcycle drive by
The cigarette ash flies in your eyes
And you don't mind, you smile.
And say the world, it doesn't fit with you
I don't believe you, you're so serene
Careening through the universe
Your axis on a tilt, you're guiltless and free
I hope you take a piece of me with you

And there's things I would like to do
That you don't believe in
I would like to build something
But you'll never see it happen

And there's this burning
Like there's always been
I've never been so alone
And I've, I've never been so alive

And there's this burning, aaa-oh
There is this burning, yeah yeah yeah

Where's the soul I want to know
New York City is evil
The surface is everything
But I could never do that
Someone would see through that

And this is our last time
We'll be friends again
I'll get over you, you'll wonder who I am

And there's this burning
Just like there's always been
I've never been so alone, alone
And I, and I, I've never been so alive
So alive

I go home to the coast
It starts to rain I paddle out on the water, alone
Taste the salt and taste the pain
I'm not thinking of you again

Summer dies and swells rise
The sun goes down in my eyes
See this rolling wave
Darkly coming to take me home

And I've never been so alone
And I've never been so alive

I just feel like it*s about the singer wanting more from the person he*s singing about... like they*re friends, & he wants more, but she doesn*t... & she*s naive about it all... very Aquarius of her. ; ) & talking about how the girl is guiltless & free... the whole song just reminds me of an Aquarius & the way it feels aches to like one. Off-topic - I love that line about "Where*s the soul, I wanna know... NYC is evil, the surface is everything, but I could never do that, someone would see through that..."

I have a hip flexor strain & I hate it. : ( I can*t workout for three weeks... that really bothers me. I was limping for a few days, but that*s gone & it*s starting to feel better, but I just miss running & strength training.

Other than that, things are well with me & I hope things are well with you, too. : )
