There’s No Cure | July 19th 2007

Sou thought out loud in Personal, Music

It’s been seven months since I heard ‘Sway’ by Bic Runga. Seven months.

There was a time in my life where the lyrics of the song spoke on my behalf; that time has long passed. It’s funny, seven months, yet the second I hit the ‘play’ button all the memories came flooding in. I don’t really know why I dug the song up, I can’t really explain it. It seems that I have single handedly burdened myself with emotions that were long forgotten.

I don’t know about you but there isn’t a trace of Bic Runga on my laptop or iPod anymore, she disappeared in December, right about the time you did.
(Just for the record, what you did, it didn’t go unnoticed.)

I’m going against my promises, but…

Bic Runga - Honest Goodbyes

“Honest goodbyes only work once or twice,
Then the rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
The rest must be lies.”

it is better you parted and you’re better alone ;*

sometimes we need to listen to songs from our past to make us realise that we are better today than we ever have been.

there was a time in my life when i wouldnt listen to certain songs because of the sentimental meaning behind them, but at the end of the day, they are songs, and in time the meanings behind them will change.

*and thats all the Dr.Phil you’re getting from me*

Thanks for you comments everyone.

Just a phase, I’m better now. Next time I decide to dig up a song, kick me, please! ;p

Hello darling

I urge you to revel in your manic depression and consider the benefits of suicide. There is no healthier escape than huddling in a dark corner with a razor blade to your wrists.

best wishes

Bic has such a beautiful voice. She should be far more famous than she is.
Don’t waste her on sad things :)

“Don’t waste her on sad things.”

I won’t, not anymore. :)
