Lyric discussion by gordon1115 

Cover art for Come Down lyrics by Toad the Wet Sprocket

The word man uses words. Words are hidden so that is why we have to search for them -- the right words. Say it one way, and then another way until the right words are found -- to articulate the real message.

But a lot of people don't dwell in the depths of working out how to perfectly express deeper messages. I know it annoys you, but this is me -- I'm sorry, but not really.

I imagine the song lyrics are literally from an actual interaction and we probably will never know the context. But I'm going to try and figure out a way of abstracting the essential message in a way that removes context and yet carries profound significance.

....... see ya in a week or two.
