Ani DiFranco – Imperfectly Lyrics | 18 years ago |
To me, this song describes an ideal relationship. No illusions of beauty, of property; no illusions of anything. Just real love, understanding, and acceptance of each other's imperfections. |
Girlyman – Young James Dean Lyrics | 18 years ago |
I think this song is about not fitting into the gender binary, being neither male nor female. "All the real girls with their backs turned called me crazy", "All the realy boys in their black jeans called me crazy". |
Girlyman – Say Goodbye Lyrics | 18 years ago |
(There's three members of this group and this particular song was written by Doris Muramatsu.) This song makes me think of my grandmother. She died a few months ago after a lengthy illness and like the song says I really think she was wanting to go. (but, now "I know with no doubt, that you're resting somewhere great") I beat myself up think about this now and it's sort well said in the second stanza, there was so many times I could have been talking to her and hearing all her stories and wisdom, but often I would just put my iPod on and basically ignore her. I don't know why I thought she would always be there, I don't why it's so easy to take people for granted; it's like I always lived with her or near her, I was such a fool. I wish I could have done differently but I am glad for the time I had with her. And this song makes me think of her and reminds me to spend as much time as I can with the ones I love now, because we're never guaranteed the next moment. |
