Too Good To Be Right




On the back of a motorback with your arms outstretched trying to take flight, leaving everything behind. But even at our swiftest speed we couldn't break from the concrete, in the city where we still reside.

An Explanation




I've had this thought it my head. This thought that has plagued my mind continuously for about a month. As you've probably noticed, my posts have started to become less frequent. By no means is this a direct reflection of my music habits, but more a symptom of this thought. The thought is that sometimes, though I never thought I'd admit it, a song doesn't quite grasp the entire situation. I'm a dreamer. I always have been (thanks in large part to my upbringing in this suburban Canadian town). This dreamer in me believes in the power of music, of lyrics, of a perfect harmony and voice molded into a completely breathtaking piece. I understand that not all of the songs I've posted are truly deep or the stereotypical beautiful, but they are all helpful and I like them. Every single one.
The point of this post, is not to give you another (great) song or (life-altering) lyric but to inform you of the lack of posts recently. I used to be inspired. I still am, no doubt, but less often. Posts will continue, but I'm not guaranteeing a post a day or even every other.
