"i don't dream, cause i don't sleep, moon is hanging, like your hat"
"took your paintings off the wall, that one of me that you call doll"
"i don't wanna think of you no more, except for in between the sun and moon"
"packed up and moved out after all, bull dozed the house and watched it fall, that blessed sight i still recall"
"it don't hurt like it did, it hurts worse, who do i kid?"
{insert fucking awesome guitar solo to finish}
i love this song so much
i can relate to it so much having experienced something similar about 7 years ago...
sometimes when you try to get on with your life, even trying to clean the slate and start again can't take away what it was before...
this is one of those songs that will always represent that time in my life...
it certainly explains why the cd was in one of the difficult to find places....
whilst it can bring back all the history of trouble and pain, i can look at it from a different point of view.
i can listen to the song in a more objective way and that's nice - it gives me power in knowing that i went through all that and i've grown so much since then...
so the song changes from being a representation of what i experienced and went through, to something that makes me stand tall and stand up to anyone and anything that tries to get in my way and obscure my judgements and throw brick walls in my way...
at the end of the day, bricks are just cladding, the structure of a house is all in the stud work...
i am stud framing material - so bricks are just the cladding in front of my face...
the bricks can fall but my framing will always be there holding up the roof over my life
so this is another example of what music does for me
it makes me feel, and feel alive
