Animal Collective – The Purple Bottle Lyrics 17 years ago
that ukelele (sp?) in the background reminded me of hawaii, obviously, so i thought khalana sounded islandish so i looked up what english name it translated to and i came up with Carna/ Karna. except the only thing is there is no H (kalana).

Yellowcard – Gifts and Curses Lyrics 19 years ago
wow, i'm gonna be straight with everyone here, i don't really like yellowcard for many reasons but i used to. after my fallout with the band, i bought the new spiderman 2 CD just because i had a serious crush on tobey maguire at the time and not to mention the movie was unbelievable.

anyway, there i was, sitting in the dark at probably 2:00 in the morning (i think i'm nocturnal) and it was the first time i'm listening to the CD. i got past vindicated (my second favorite) and ordinary (tied at second) and then the first words i heard on track number 5 are "Mary belongs, to the words of a song..." and i totally lost it. i was crying hysterically, and could barely hear the damned song.

oh, and did i mention? my name just happens to be MARY. yeah. and you know how it goes "And my worst pains are words I cannot say" well there happens to be someone in my life who i can't tell them how i feel because of the way i know he'll react. i've liked him since fourth grade (kindergarten, really, but i didn't know it was him until recently) , but never went anywhere with it; i guess we were both just too afraid of what could happen; not the right time with his parents getting a divorce and such. and nowadays, since i can't really approach the topic, i write to him and save the letters so someday, when things are better, i'll give them all to him. so that explains my part with the "words i cannot say."

anywho, my best friend hates him. yea, she pretty much wants to gut him and chuck his remaining bloody pulp into an incinerator. and he kinda hates her too. but you see, i never told her about him and how i loved him so much until a little while ago. so before she knew, she always talked bad about him and i just put up with it until one day i exploded in her face and told her that she had no right saying all those aweful things about him and how she didn't even know him and that she should've gotten the chance to know him because he was such a sweet and funny and great guy. so there's the "i still will always fight on for you" and " i see your face with every punch i take and every bone i break, it's all for you." cuz obviously i risked my friendship with my best friend to defend him.

so, i waited too long and he's changed while i've waited ("will not wait for me anymore") and he now likes this chick who plays everyone, but he still has yet to see it. and the "villian i can't knock down" part goes with how much i love who he used to be, the real him, and how much i hate the him today, putting on a show for this... skankwhoreslutbag. and i guess it goes with her too, cuz he "loves" her so much and i hate her so i can't exactly show that i hate her so much cuz i don't want to lose what i have left of him. so i basically have to just sit back and watch this "villian" going around... and i can't do anything about it. i mean, i know what she does. she hurts practically everyone, and i don't want him to get hurt, but at the same time, i can't say anthing to him without him hating me. plus, he just won't listen. i know him too, and he's stubborn as hell.

then there's the whole section of "Mary's alive in the bright New York sky The city lights shine for her, above them I cry for her Everything's small on the ground below, down below What if I fall, then where would I go, would she know?"
well it just so happens that my house is on this gigantic hill where from this huge window in my room, i can see the whole city and all the lights. i used to open my window and sit on the sill and see if i could find his house(s) (his parents are divorced) from my window. i always could, i mean he lives like 5 blocks away in one direction and like 3 in the other but there were these trees so i never could actually see them. and i just always sat there wondering, how don't you know? don't you realize what's happening? are you so blind, or do you know but just won't believe it's true? and occasionally (okay, frequently) ending up crying.

and so, thus ends my sad little story that still happens to be going on today. now we barely talk and, frankly, have grown apart to the point where i can hardly speak to him without getting really scared, nervous, angry, or depressed.
the end :)
you know, i was just so surprised at the irony that one of the bands i disliked the most at the time (actually, i like their music, but not them themselves) wrote a song that fit my life so perfectly, even though it was for a movie, especially, one of my favorite. so..... i guess.......my life is kinda like a movie in a way, me being a superhero in disguise... somehow in a weird world minus the superpowers and all. and how peter can't let mary jane know he's both indentities without getting her hurt. wow. that's pretty chill x.x

oh, yea, the song is awesome, if you can't tell.

~Mary~
