Ring-leader bitch



I have to give it to her, she's come out with another formidable album (formidable in the sense that there ARE good songs, but the majority just lure the listener in b/c of how catchy they are). In any case, "out from under" seems to be the song that speaks to me the most.

The snow, the winter, and just how things have been make me really want to go out for a brisk walk in Central Park tomorrow. I will do that, to make me feel better about how empty at times things seem, and to prove how fulfilling something as simple as a promenade can be. Time to lift my spirit and keep drinking.

I don’t wanna dream about
All the things that never were
Maybe I can live without
When I’m out from under
I don’t wanna feel the pain
What good would it do me now
I’ll get it all figured out
When I’m out from under

So let me go
Just let me fly away
Let me feel the space between us growing deeper
And much darker every day
Watch me now and I’ll be someone new
My heart will be unbroken
It will open up for everyone but you
Even when I cross the line
It's like a lie I’ve told a thousand times
