| Ani DiFranco – Lost Woman Song Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
Though the song is pro-choice...It should not be encouraged. The idea that it's okay to end a life of a virtually and physically enabled human is grotesque. It's also aware to me she might (I don't know because it's a personal issue) be a femenist. Nothing really wrong with that. But sooner or later even femenist have to face judgement. Part of growing up is looking at choice and making the right decision. Part of growing up is taking responsibility for your mistakes. God Bless- |

| As I Lay Dying – Confined Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
"The night I never came home wandering souls captured my thoughts. Emptiness filled my mind..." Starting there I think that this means ultimately feeling depressed; Feeling thoughts of lonliness and anger at yourself. "Urgency spoke her lies in the confines of these grey walls." Our elusive 'Her' is a generalization of anything that makes us believe the lie that we tell ourselves to make ourselves feel worse. "I watched them move together; Taking me places I cannot remember." 'Them' in this case is the walls; So a sense of dizziness is created, probably from the empty feeling left inside from 'her' lies that 'she' keeps telling him. "We have been poured out into a loveless bride." Our 'bride' (This I am skeptic on a bit, and am open for correction.) I think this is in the definition of us living with and in the world. Treating it as a 'bride' after consumation. Which, the world has no love, it is an existence for our sociality. Which lead to the next lines..."How quickly I forget that this is meaning less. In a world passing through my fingers, I still chase the wind." These lines bouce off eachother in a parallelism; Living in a 'loveless bride' is meaningless and chasing after the hope of finding love in the world is meaningless. "What have I learned from yesterday?" Self-explanitory...Asking yourself what you've learned. Trying to learn that love does not come easy, and all love must be nurtured. God Bless- |
