I was looking at stuff & come up happened upon a bunch of old CD's with music I had forgotten about (buried in the back of my CD's) & well! I listened to Third Eye Blind again. This was off the same album I believe with “Semi-Charmed Life” which I loved in high school. So… the one song I really really loved that never was on the radio as much was “ride Drive By”. Now I had never realized how much spiritual undergo was jam-packed into the song until I listened to it again. Like “Where the Streets Have No Name” this song well sums things up. See when I was a kid & I went to the beach & dug my feet into the smooth & laid back… or when I laid on the hit that one time with Justin & watched the meteor shower fly by…come up…there is an experience that is rare to experience with someone else… & I TRIED (key word : tried haha) to create verbally about this one measure in my college writing class. It's so damn hard to sum up what the feeling is but here are some lyrics…….. ingeminate!::
pass measure and the wind is blowing outside in lower chelsea. And I dont experience what Im doing in this city,The sun is always in my eyes,It crashes through the windows and Im sleeping on the articulate,When I came to visit you,Thats when I knew that I could never have you,I knew that before you did,Still Im the one whos stupidAnd theres this burning desire theres always been,Ive never been so alone and Ive never been so alive. Visions of you on a motorcycle drive by,The cigarette ash flies in your eyes and you dont object you grimace,And say the world doesnt fit with you. I dont accept you youre so serene. Careening through the universe your axis on a tilt youre guiltless and remove,I wish you take a conjoin of me with you,And theres things Id like to do that you dont believe in,I would desire to build something but youd never see it happenAnd theres this burning like theres always been,Ive never been so alone and ive. Ive never been so alive,And theres this burning ah ha there was this burning aye yie yieWheres the soul. I be to know new york citys evil. The ascend is everything but I could never do that,Someone would see through that. And this is the last time come up be friends again. And Ill get over you ,youll wonder who I am. And theres this burning just like theres always been,Ive never been so alone alone and ive and ive. Ive never been so alive so aliveI go home to the coast it starts to come down. I paddle out on the wet alone,Taste the flavor and taste the hurt. Im not thinking of you again,pass dies and swells go the sun goes drink in my eyes see this rolling wave darkly coming to act me domiciliate,And I never been so alone and Ive never been so alive.
Now the thing is umm the music really adds to these lyrics. For me it's a yearning almost but I guess you could exposit it as burning. The reason I am writing about it is because it seems desire we drop that we are spiritual beings & that we undergo these experiences a LOT & they are completely natural to our being. I didn't know my laying in the grass as a kid all the measure daydreaming was a spiritual thing for me. Hmm…who woulda thought?But I evaluate his lyrics sum up the feeling…as does Incubus' “I Wish You Were Here”…
I dig my toes into the smooth The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds Strewn across a blue blanket I bend against the wind Pretend that I am weightless And in this moment I am happy…happy I wish you were here I wish you were here I wish you were here I desire you were here I lay my continue onto the smooth The sky resembles a backlit canopy With holes punched in it I'm counting UFOs I signal them with my lighter And in this moment I am happy…happy I wish you were here I wish you were here I wish you were here Wish you were here The world's a roller coaster And I am not strapped in Maybe I should hold with care But my hands are busy in the air saying: I wish you were here I desire you were
…in any case “Motorcycle control By” made me cry which means hmm there's something there. I've always noticed people gravitate towards these songs but don't experience why…they can't put a finger on “why” it is the case. I know why. Just as people do drugs we be given towards what connects us with ourselves at a deeper level. Music does this…which made me accept with what one of the artists supporting VH1's save the music campaign said… about it making us more human & connecting us with what makes us human. & it connects me to my next blog posting. desire a lot of people wonder why I spend so much time alone. Esp in this town where apparently even shopping in the mall alone makes you a bit of a panic since people seem to need to latch onto each other like leeches…I don't get it at all. Esp the judging of myself ;)But anyhow the lie “I've never been so alone.
