FebMusMo #15 – Theme

Tonight’s Theme: "What’s your life theme song?"

I don’t have a ‘life’ theme song, but this song really sums up how I feel right now:

The Airborne Toxic Event – Wishing Well

It’s the first verse that gets me, that just… speaks out exactly what I’m feeling right this moment:

Standing on a bus stop
Feeling your head pop
Out in the night
In the kind of night
Where you want to be out
On the street, on the street
Crawling up the walls
Like a cat in heat

And the air is thin
And it blows through your skin
And you feel like something
Is about to begin
But you don’t know what
And you don’t know when
So you tear at your hair
And you scratch at your skin

You wanna run away, run away
Just get on the fucking train and leave today
And it doesn’t matter where you spend the night
You just might end up somewhere in a fight, in a fight
Or calling your room on a concrete shelf
Fighting all alone, with yourself, with yourself
And you just wanna feel like a coin that’s been tossed
In a wishing well, a wishing well
A wishing well, a wishing well
Well you’re tossed in the air
And you fell and you fell
Through the dark blue waters
Where you cast your spell
Like you were just a wish that could turn out well

I agree – The men don’t have a chance. My life theme song: Shimmer by Fuel. Plus one of the songs I wrote sums things up pretty well… -CF

Ah, but dear…you are simply listening to the wrong female singers ^_~ -CF

Hmm, i’m not sure i could actually agree with that (reerring to the note). i don’t find that i sympathetic towards satan, it’s more that he is more interesting. But that’s not only it, it’s also more tangible. It’s also more interesting. God is boring. But in order to write about one, you must write about the other.

Funny you mention ball gags…I wished I had one last night as I spent the majority of my night listening to what sounded like someone beating a hyena with a squeak toy in the next room. Ugh. -CF

I was quite audible in my detest. Anyway, back to female singers…Ever listened to Cat Power? It’s slow, jazzy music, but I love her voice. Her, KT Tunstall and Fiona Apple are high on my list. -CF

Cat Power has a retardedly sexy voice. It nearly makes me swoon. -=Dave=-
