   Craziness

I got a new car today ^_^ My old one is really on it's last legs, so yeah. I'm going to have to spend all summer (and more probably) paying back my parents. *sobs* I'm going to be so broke! But I guess that's the way it goes *sigh* Seeing as how Magnus can't hear the song playing in my background, I thought I'd be nice for once and post the lyrics for her. Also, I'm going to post the lyrics for the song I didn't use, just for the hell of it ^_^ "Drops of Jupiter" by Train Now that shes back in the atmosphere With drops of jupiter in her hair, hey, hey She acts like summer and walks like rain Reminds me that theres time to change, hey, hey Since the return from her stay on the moon She listens like spring and she talks like june, hey, hey Tell me did you sail across the sun Did you make it to the milky way to see the lights all faded And that heaven is overrated Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star One without a permanent scar And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there Now that shes back from that soul vacation Tracing her way through the constellation, hey, hey She checks out mozart while she does tae-bo Reminds me that theres time to grow, hey, hey Now that shes back in the atmosphere Im afraid that she might think of me as plain ol jane Told a story about a man who is too afraid to fly so he never did land Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day And head back to the milky way And tell me, did venus blow your mind Was it everything you wanted to find And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken Your best friend always sticking up for you even when I know youre wrong Can you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance five-hour phone Conversation The best soy latte that you ever had . . . and me Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day And head back toward the milky way "I Will Follow You Into The Dark" by Death Cab For Cutie Love of mine some day you will die But I'll be close behind I'll follow you into the dark No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white Just our hands clasped so tight Waiting for the hint of a spark If heaven and hell decide That they both are satisfied Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs If there's no one beside you When your soul embarks Then I'll follow you into the dark In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule I got my knuckles brusied by a lady in black And I held my tongue as she told me "Son fear is the heart of love" So I never went back If heaven and hell decide That they both are satisfied Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs If there's no one beside you When your soul embarks Then I'll follow you into the dark You and me have seen everything to see From Bangkok to Calgary And the soles of your shoes are all worn down The time for sleep is now It's nothing to cry about Cause we'll hold each other soon In the blackest of rooms If heaven and hell decide That they both are satisfied Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs If there's no one beside you When your soul embarks Then I'll follow you into the dark Then I'll follow you into the dark Depressing, eh? I still like it though. It's such a soft, mellow song. It often gets compared to "Such Great Heights", if any of you know that song. They used a remake of it once in an M&M commercial. Or, I think it was the remake. I can't remember. I know there's at least two versions. Anyway, I know that "I Will Follow You Into The Dark" sounds like a kind of suicidal song, but that's not the way I interpret it (even if it was meant that way ^_^). It reminds me of those stories you hear of couples who die right around the same time, from what most people call "heartache", or simply the loss of the will to live without someone. Of course, if you look at the grand scheme of time and human history, one life span isn't really all that long, and is essentialy a short time before you die. Then there's also the whole religious aspect to the song. Kind of like he saying, if there's no place for you in the traditional view of the afterlife, then there's none for me either. So the song can be taken plenty of ways ^_^ I like those. -Quote of the Day- "When people say they hear voices in their head... as opposed to where exactly? Now, hearing voices in your legs, that would be crazy." -Jimmy Carr-
