Re: fave lab lyric
I especially like that, "time doesn't know itself," part. and that, "repossess the senses," part. That's really keen insight. I really need to repossess my senses again where I feel like everything is a new experience. I really want to attain that for myself. a rejuvenation of my neural afferent responses. God, I sound neurotic ! I sound like a whiny neurotic doing a Woody Allen impersonation, mewling over my desensitization I've worked so hard all these years to cultivate.
I have no right to complain, what with all the problems in the world, everyone should have these petty complaints. I just need to give up on the perfectionism. There is no perfect objective. oh that's bull shit yes there is yes there is. that's just something the shrink tells you out of liability. psychology is kind of a crock. but it helps people get along in life.
I like many elements about this song. I like it when the music kind of meanders to the right and to the left...repeat. then I like the strings at the end. I like the lyrics because it makes me think of a primal man or arriving on another planet. and what are you going to do in that situation? I don't know. It's just a rock song so it really doesn't advise as much as it equivocates. which is kind of a disappointment because I'm really seeking answers.
but again, and this is my own theory, I believe when I reach outside of myself for a media format, a new gadget, widget or something I really feel I need for my enjoyment,pleasure, or enhancement that the enjoyment and the entertainment and the wisdom I am ultimately seeking is that which I already keep. but society and the media belittles me in order to sell me something I don't need, so everyone will have a job and everyone will be able to eat. I'm just as guilty with my superfluous existence. I really believe that the purpose of art is to entice the buyer. Now that doesn't mean people should market shoddy products. but they do. and some people really get off on crappy stuff.
I dunno I'm not really the arbiter of these things. I just want everyone to feel some satisfaction. but what I believe we are looking for is something to identify with and that thing is ourselves. That I am looking for me. a can of soup must reflect me. I'm chasing the montage of items that best represent me, not to others, but back to myself so I'll be satisfied with myself and my life.
for now, I've said my piece...more on sense rejuvenation later.
