I
seem to have a history
at missing the point
at this stuff
apparently
very absentmindedly
I care
but never enough
for

you
TIIIIIIIIIME-to set the record straight
TIIIIIIIIIME-to stop communicating
please anticipate
AND I'M TRYING TO COMPREHEND THE THINGS I WRITE
AND I'M LIVING THE LIE THAT I CANNOT SATISFY
MUCH AGAINST EVERYONE'S ADVICE
I'M STILL TRYING I'M TRYING I'M TRYING I'M TRYING
faith
cheated me of everything
but I laughed until
I stopped
publicly
very, very openly
I sat alone with my thoughts
for

AND I'M TRYING TO COMPREHEND THE THINGS I WRITE ~ when your thoughts are going to places that don't fit the practical nessicities of the circumstances in your life at the moment... AND I'M LIVING THE LIE THAT I CANNOT SATISFY ~ this line makes me think of every time I walk to my cubicle jpb to make the $$ that allows me to live the American dream/nightmare or mortgage payments. I want to live off the land and go to bed tired after a another day of working with nature to keep my place there..
MUCH AGAINST EVERYONE'S ADVICE
I'M STILL TRYING I'M TRYING I'M TRYING I'M TRYING ~ to convince people, one at a time that there's a different way than the path we've collectively been on..
faith
cheated me of everything ~ this line take my thoughts a few places.. Tangent 1. dogma getting in the way of a true experience of the divine Tangent 2. A perception believed by enough people gets to be limiting... Tangent 3. Being a child reared in one tradition of faith but perhaps getting a bad experience at church or something that creates a distrust of religuos institutions.. A child's mind does not neccessarily see the differences between churches and spirit and is not interested for sometime and then
This song deep to me but wrapped up in a great booty-shaking musical package.
