What the hell do you mean “like a kiss from a rose on the gray!?”
No idea what song it is but what if it’s intentional that it sounds so similar …
“It’s too late to roll the dice” instead of “it’s too late to apologize” sounds much more meaningful.
Ooh, I like this one! I thought it was, “it’s too late to call the job” when I first heard it and was pretty unsure what he was going for…
He’s sad because he was going to call in sick but waited too long.
Yes! Of course. I now have a whole music video of someone hideously hungover, driving to work singing this… Kind of like the “everybody hurts” video but like crazy shit is happening.
So you’re picturing me every morning back when I had to drive in to work. Got it.
Ah, so you are a Bexar drunk? I’m further down i10 myself, not sure I could go through that interchange every day.
Edit: I am being too literal again, I think.
Harris. Also just off 10.
I do know her well! Hi neighbor! I hope you don’t have to suffer the i10 610 interchange daily!
Like a dog without a bone, like an actor OUT OF ROLE
For fuck’s sake Jim, actor out on loan, pff! What had he been smoking?
There’s a break-up song on Chvrch’s debut album called Tether. One line, frequently repeated, goes “I’m feeling capable of… seeing the end.” A fine lyric, very breakup, much hopeful.
Except, I can’t tell when listening that she isn’t saying “I feel incapable of…” I don’t know if it’s intentional but I think the ambiguity really elevates the song from semi-empowering breakup song to powerfully-relatable song about the chaos of seeing a relationship end; simultaneously believing you can get through it while also having no idea how you’ll ever get through it.
It’s just fun wordplay too: feeling capable/feel incapable. Makes me want to use that structure more in my own writing.
