| Album: Ego Tripping at the Gates of Hell* |
I'm alive! I'm done with finals, completed a week of break, and survived an apocalypse so that's pretty exciting! I'm not really sure if I can count the past week as break, though, because I was working at the school where my mom works from 10-6:30 every day, but I am free now. I am so happy to finally be done with this quarter of school because it was honestly my worst quarter yet. I have never felt so unmotivated, lost, or confused in my whole life. I think that I definitely went through metanoia and figured out a lot about myself, which is where this song comes in. I had always been fond of The Flaming Lips, but I had never really considered them to be one of my favorite bands or had a song that really resonated with me until I really listened to this song. One day, this song just clicked and I couldn't turn back haha. I will have another post on how I changed/what I realized, but for now, all I shall say is that if you are one of those people who are afraid to be vulnerable and take risks in your life (which, let's face it, is probably 90% of you), please start to take chances and live your life!
"I was waiting on a moment,
But the moment never came.
All the billion other moments,
Were just slipping all way.
I must have been tripping,
We're just slipping all away
Just ego tripping.
I was wanting you to love me,
But your love it never came.
All the other love around me,
Was just wasting all away"


You're right, this song is captivating, thanks for sharing :]
