I can't sleep now, I was just watching "2 Days in New York", which is pretty cool, but for some reason I just had the urge to write yet have nothing to really write about, so bazaar!
Hmmmm.....I know! Music!
I used to post lists of songs that were on my mind weekly on my old blog and write a line of lyrics that I loved the most from each song, which I'm going to start up again.
There have been two songs that I've been obsessed with since last month, both by my favorite singer, the great and wonderful Ms. Fiona Apple: "Every Single Night" and "Werewolf".
I'm a HUGE Fiona Apple fan ever since her first song Criminal invaded MTV in the 90's. Her songs are so deep and blunt and her voice is just so raw and lovely.
"Every Single Night"
Every single night, I endure the flight
With little wings of white-flamed
Butterflies in my brain
These ideas of mine
Percolate the mind
Trickle down the spine, swarm the belly, swelling to a blaze
That's when the pain comes in
Like a second skeleton
Trying to fit beneath the skin
I can't fit the feelings in, oh
Every single night's a fight
With my brain...
"Werewolf"
I can liken you to a werewolf, the way you left me for dead
But I admit, I provided a full moon
I can liken you to a shark, the way you bit off my head
But then again, I was waving around a bleeding open wound
You were such a super guy till the second you got a whif of me
And we are like a wishing well and a bolt of electricity
But we can still support each other, all we gotta do is avoid each other
And nothing wrong when a song ends in a minor key
Nothing wrong when a song ends in a minor key
The lava of our volcano
Shot up hot from under the sea
One thing leads to another
And you made an island of me....
These days, there are very few artists out there who really goi in on one's psyche and tap into their emotions. She exposes herself so eloquently. I think I sound like I'm high right now hahahaha.
What can I say, I simply think she's the truth.
Bonne Nuit!
