(no subject)
yay, i is updating my journal. i never put anything in here. but i was re-reading previous entries (since i gave james the username, i had to make sure there was nothing i wanted to keep him from reading, but i didn't lock any of the entries), and i decided that i liked this journal and i should rather like to occasionally still update it. so i shall. with an entry that isn't really quite serious enough for it, but whatever.
so anyway, it's about the song "hand me down" by matchbox 20. lyrics are as follows:
Someday they’ll find your small town world on a big town avenue
Gonna make you like the way they talk when they’re talking to you
Gonna make you break out of the shell cause they tell you to
Gonna make you like the way they lie better than the truth
They’ll tell you everything you wanted someone else to say
They’re gonna break your heart, yeah
[chorus]
From what I’ve seen
You’re just a one more hand me down
Cause no one’s tried to give you what you need
So lay all your troubles down
I am with you now
Somebody ought to take you in
Try to make you love again
Try to make you like the way they feel
When they’re under your skin
Never once did think they’d lie when they’re holding you
You wonder why they haven’t called
When they said they’d call you
You start to wonder if you’re ever gonna make it by
You’ll start to think you were born blind
[chorus]
From what I’ve seen
You’re just a one more hand me down
Cause no one’s tried to give you what you need
So lay all your troubles down
I am with you now
I’m here for the hard times
The straight to your heart times
Whenever it ain’t easy
You can stand up against me
And maybe rely on me
And cry on me, yeah
Oh no, no, no
Some day they’ll open up your world
Shake it down on a drawing board
Do their best to change you
They still can’t erase you
[chorus]
From what I’ve seen
You’re just a one more hand me down
Cause no one’s tried to give you what you need
So lay all your troubles down
I am with you now
Lay them down on me
Oh yeah
You’re just one more hand me down
And all those nots don’t give you what you need
So lay all your troubles down...on me
i really really like that song. it's pretty. but i'd listened to it 10 or 15 times before it occurred to me that part of why i like it is because i can relate to it. not as much as some girls, but still. with the houston relationship, a lot of those things apply. like the "Gonna make you like the way they lie better than the truth/ They’ll tell you everything you wanted someone else to say" and such. well, all of it, sort of. but now james has taught me "how to love again" or, more precisely, that guys aren't all bad. re-reading my entry about houston reminded me just how freaked out i was. i was terrified to date again. but yeah, guys definitely aren't all bad.
oh, and it's always bothred me that i've never much cared for kissing. thought i was some sort of freak since everyone else seemed to enjoy it. evidently i was just kissing the wrong guys. ^_-
ta!
