songs

why is it that you start listening to some songs and you want to keep listening to them on repeat. i started this morning with 'afterglow - INXS' and now i am on 'Amused to Death-Roger Waters'. for me lyrics are the most important part of a song. you just connect to the song based on the lyrics and dive into it. the the song becomes yours.......you own it......

i was telling Revati about the night when i was on one knee listening to U2-Achtung Baby. each song got inside me. the words shook me. they seem to be the truth. i got lost that night......

Zoo Station
Even Better Than The Real Thing
One Until The End Of The World
Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses
So Cruel
The Fly
Mysterious Ways
Tryin' to Throw Your Arms Around the World
Ultraviolet (Light My Way)
Acrobat
Love Is Blindness

each songs took me to a different place in my life. through different emotions. i went back in time. i went forward in time. it kept getting crazy. it was a loop i didnt want to get out of.

funny how our minds associate songs with emotions. things just come back as soon as the first chords are played. and when the words are spoken, i just sing along.......

We crossed the line, who pushed who over?
It doesn't matter to you, it matters to me.
We're cut adrift, but still floating.
I'm only hanging on to watch you go down, my love.

I disappeared in you
You disappeared from me.
I gave you everything you ever wanted
It wasn't what you wanted.
The men who love you, you hate the most
They pass right through you like a ghost.
They look for you, but your spirit is in the air.
Baby, you're nowhere.

Oh, love, you say in love there are no rules.
Oh, love, sweet-heart, you're so cruel.
Desperation is a tender trap
It gets you every time.
You put your lips to her lips
To stop the lie.
Her skin is pale like God's only dove
Screams like an angel for your love
Then she makes you watch her from above
And you need her like a drug.

Oh, love, you say in love there are no rules.
Oh, love, sweet-heart, you're so cruel.
She wears my love like a see-through dress
Her lips say one thing, her movements something else.
Oh, love, like a screaming flower
Love dying every hour.

Ah, you don't know if it's fear or desire,
Danger the drug that takes you higher?
Head of heaven, fingers in the mire
Her heart is racing you can't keep up.
The night is bleeding like a cut
Between the horses of love and lust we are trampled underfoot.

Oh, love, to stay with you
I'd be a fool.
Oh, sweetheart, you're so cruel.
