(f)AD mentioned during the drive that the lyrics to this song are pretty appropriate for what how I've been feeling lately. She totally gets a gold star.
The White Stripes - "The Denial Twist"
If you think that a kiss is all in the lips
C'mon, you got it all wrong, man
And if you think that our dance was all in the hips
Oh well, then do the twist
If you think holding hands is all in the fingers
Grab hold of the soul where the memory lingers and
Make sure to never do it with a singer
Cause he'll tell everyone in the world
What he was thinking about the girl
Yeah, what he's thinking about the girl
A lot of people get confused and they bruise
Real easy when it comes to love
They start putting on their shoes and walking out
And singing "boy, I think I had enough"
Just because she makes a big rumpus
She don't mean to be mean or hurt you on purpose, boy
Take a tip and do yourself a little service
Take a mountain turn it into a mole
Just by playing a different role
Yeah, by playing a different role
The boat ya you know she's rockin' it
And the truth well ya know there's no stoppin' it
The boat ya you know she's still rockin' it
The truth well you know there's no stoppin' it
So what, somebody left you in a rut
And wants to be the one who's in control
But the feeling that you're under can really make you wonder
How the hell she can be so cold
So now you're left, denying the truth
And it's hidden in the wisdom in the back of your tooth
Ya need ta spit it out, in a telephone booth
While ya call everyone that you know, and ask 'em
Where do you think she goes
Oh yeah, where d'ya suppose she goes
The truth well you know there's no stoppin' it
And the boat well ya know she's still rockin' it
The boat ya you know she's still rockin' it
And the truth ya you know there's no stoppin' it
You recognize the effect and the wreck
That it's causing when she rocks the boat
Well it's the cause hittin on the Cardinal Laws
'bout the proper place to hang her coat
So to you, the truth is still hidden
And the soul plays the role of a lost little kitten
but
You should know that the doctors weren't kidding
She's been singing it all along
But you were hearin' a different song
Ya you were hearin' a different song
But you were hearin' a different song

Date: 6 Jun 2006 22:59 (UTC)Hell that band.. many a time their songs have fit times for me.
I think this fits you well too right now.
Hope all is well regardless.. I have been keeping up with you post/progressions, I've just not been good at finding words to comment, even though I've been relating allot to what you've been pouring forth, and what you right is refreshing and open, i wish I could be able to do that, and put things to words so well. I think I am going to call you this week.
I've been kinda bad on those fronts with allot of folks, but I wasn't fit for verbal concumption past week, and have been so overwhelmed, and busy dealing with and distracted by shit. Still am but it's tapered off and my brain and emotions are a bit better to start giving energy to the social conneting side with folks.
P.s working on a lil care-package for you this week, hopefully it will get to you before your b-day? I feel bad about not being able to make it personaly seriously.
-K-
