If the EX was a Song...... ISITOBVIOUS: Fits many of the ones we discuss perfectly... Actually probably almost all of them... Anyone else?
Maybe I should have posted this in songs.. Oh well I am actually venting.. But the song so perfectly describes my seasonal, actually weekly, H*ll hourly roller coaster!
Artist: Meredith Brooks Lyrics
Song: Bitch Lyrics
I hate the world today
You're so good to me
I know but I can't change
Tried to tell you
But you look at me like maybe
I'm an angel underneath
Innocent and sweet
Yesterday I cried
Must have been relieved to see
The softer side
I can understand how you'd be so confused
I don't envy you
I'm a little bit of everything
All rolled into one
[Chorus:">
I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way
So take me as I am
This may mean
You'll have to be a stronger man
Rest assured that
When I start to make you nervous
And I'm going to extremes
Tomorrow I will change
And today won't mean a thing
[Chorus">
Just when you think, you got me figured out
The season's already changing
I think it's cool, you do what you do
And don't try to save me
[Chorus">
I'm a bitch, I'm a tease
I'm a goddess on my knees
When you hurt, when you suffer
I'm your angel undercover
I've been numb, I'm revived
Can't say I'm not alive
You know I wouldn't want it any other way
Re:If the EX was a Song...... pluscachange: My wife, in lyrics (except the "elevate from the norm" part, that would be unthinkable to her, must avoid all things different):
Rush: Vital Signs - Moving Pictures (album) 1981
Unstable condition
A symptom of life
In mental and environmental change
Atmospheric disturbance
The feverish flux
Of human interface and interchange
The impulse is pure
Sometimes our circuits get shorted
By external interference
Signals get crossed
And the balance distorted
By internal incoherence
A tired mind become a shape-shifter
Everybody need a mood lifter
Everybody need reverse polarity
Everybody got mixed feelings
About the function and the form
Everybody got to deviate from the norm
An ounce of perception
A pound of obscure
Process information at half speed
Pause, rewind, replay
Warm memory chip
Random sample, hold the one you need
Leave out the fiction
The fact is, this friction
Will only be worn by persistence
Leave out conditions
Courageous convictions
Will drag the dream into existence
A tired mind become a shape-shifter
Everybody need a soft filter
Everybody need reverse polarity
Everybody got mixed feelings
About the function and the form
Everybody got to elevate from the norm...
Re:If the EX was a Song...... HopeEternal: This song isn't what my ex is, but it sums up our situation pretty damn well. Brian May of Queen was goin through a divorce when he wrote what I consider the ultimate break-up song. Was "I'll love you 'til I die" just a big lie?
SAVE ME by Queen
It started off so well
They said we made a perfect pair
I clothed myself in your glory and your love
How I loved you,
How I cried.....
The years of care and loyalty
Were nothing but a sham it seems
The years belie we lived a lie
"I'll love you 'til I die"
Save me Save me Save me
I can't face this life alone
Save me Save me Oh...
I'm naked and I'm far from home
The slate will soon be clean
I'll erase the memories,
To start again with somebody new
Was it all wasted
All that love?.....
I hang my head and I advertise
A soul for sale or rent
I have no heart, I'm cold inside
I have no real intent
Save me Save me Save me
I can't face this life alone
Save me Save me Oh...
I'm naked and I'm far from home
Each night I cry, I still believe the lie
"I'll love you 'til I die "
Re:If the EX was a Song...... jtim10: Is there a song called "Cold Hearted Snake"??
Re:If the EX was a Song...... HopeEternal: Paula Abdul had one with that title I think, back in the early 90s or something.
