song-icon Song #2 - Tuesday, 27 November 2007This song is about freedom and trying to find one’s feet in a world where he is overprotected. Sure, being protected by one’s parents is a great thing, but at times one begins to wonder whether the mother or father will ever see their child as anything else than a child in need of protection? In truth, sometimes it can be a bit stifling, so this song is a portrayal of two conflicting emotions; gratitude and also frustration but not wanting to point fingers. Gosh I can’t believe a human can feel so many things at the same time … I’m surprised the subject hasn’t exploded yet.

I live, I breathe, forevermore / I live, I think, now that’s for sure / To think that you don’t even want to look at me this way / I think that you just need a little / Time to get used to this idea / That I may be a little more grown up then you conceive / I just gotta breathe a little more each day / I just gotta breathe so why don’t you look at me now / You think that I’m the center of the world / But you can’t really think of me this way / I’m not the little boy from yesterday / No, no yesterday / You say that I don’t know myself yet / You say that you don’t want me to regret / Any choice that I make just in case I pass away today / But don’t you know that / (I) Just want, just want to break free / (I) Just feel like you are choking me / (I) Damn I think you are keeping me way to damn naive / I just gotta breathe a little more each day / I just gotta breathe so why don’t you look at me now / I just gotta breathe a little more each day / I just gotta breathe so why don’t you look at me now / You think that I’m the center of the world / But you can’t really think of me this way / I’m not the little boy from yesterday / No, no yesterday / You think that I’m the center of the world / But you can’t really think of me this way / I’m not the little boy from yesterday / No, no yesterday.

  8. Yaaay! I’m glad you like it… and yes… we are very complex beings… we feel way too much. I want one feeling all the time - HAPPY.

  10. Thanks Fai!

  12. But if you were happy all the time, you’d no longer be happy–since that’d be all you knew, you wouldn’t realize how wonderful it truely is. People tend to tell me that when I’m throwing hissy fits, lol, thought i’d share the wisdom (:

  14. *sings in car* XD I can’t get this song out of my head

  16. Hmm true if you have a really low point, it serves as a comparison for a really high point… but what if you were really high ALL the time?

  17. Laura on Tue, 15th Jan 2008 6:43 am
  18. well…I don’t know about you, but if /I/ were high all the time, I’d be pretty miserable(in both senses of the word…)

  19. Kym Huynh on Sat, 19th Jan 2008 7:10 am
  20. If you were high as in happy all the time… I’d haphazard a guess to suggest that you’d be eternally happy.

  22. Well I’d guess that I, or anyone, for that matter, would be pretty much dead, in a sense. But maybe that’s just me and my deranged way of thinking…?

  24. Funkadelic hey? That’s right! And don’t you forget it.

  25. Kym Huynh on Mon, 25th Feb 2008 2:28 am
  26. Bwahaha. Goal accomplished.

  27. Kym Huynh on Mon, 25th Feb 2008 2:29 am
  28. Then we’re all deranged and all think deranged-ly.

  29. Laura on Mon, 25th Feb 2008 2:36 am
  30. I concur. Totally and completely. -definite nod-

  31. Kym Huynh on Mon, 25th Feb 2008 8:16 am
  32. Of course you agree Laura. If you didn’t agree… then we would be in complete disagreement.

  33. Laura on Mon, 25th Feb 2008 9:16 am
  34. Quite obviously so, but what difference would that make? Am I no longer allowed to be free-thinking and occasionally disagree with you, hmmm?

  35. Kym Huynh on Mon, 25th Feb 2008 9:35 am
  36. Abso-fricken’-lutely haha. :D

Tell me what you're thinking...
