I feel like I owe a posting, and for some reason, I haven't either a.) given myself enough time, space, and clarity to produce such or b.)got it in me to produce such (right now). I have been listening to TV on The Radio lately and I was really moved by this song, Ambulance. The lyrics are beautiful but if you listen closely, they are about such a profound and complex emotion that many of us have at one point felt for someone else. I hope everyone only has to endure the ramifications of this predicament once. It's too depressing to be hit by this sort of tragic passion twice. If you can get your hands on this song and listen to it in a room by yourself on medium-loud speakers without any eyes to stare back at you, I can almost guarantee that you will have an experience. Stay tuned folks. I love you and prosperity in this new year.
Your slim frame
Your eager eyes and your wild mane
Oh they keep me where I belong
All wrapped up in wrong
You’re to blame
For wasted words of sad refrain
Oh let them take me where they may
Believe me when I say
I will be your accident if you will be my ambulance
And I will be your screech and crash if you will be my crutch and cast
And I will be your one more time if you will be my one last chance
oh fall for me
Your slim frame
Your simple stare and your wrong, wrong name
Oh they keep me where I belong
All strung out in song
Why so tame
We could shoot wilder vines
Through younger veins
Sip slow from night’s deep wells
And watch our gardens swell
Once the seeds are sown
Wild and overgrown, you’ll see
Heart's colors changed like leaves
Oh sweet sweet tree
Fall for me
Fall fast, fall free, fall for me
Because I will be your ambulance if you will be my accident
And I will be your screech and crash if you will be my crutch and cast
And I will be your one more time if you will be my one last chance
Oh sweet tree, fall with me
Fall fast, fall free, fall with me
