Fiona Apple-Sullen Girl

in my opinion her greatest song
Days like this, I dont know what to do with myself.
All day - and all night.
I wander the halls along the walls and under my breath.
I say to myself.
I need fuel - to take flight -

And theres too much going on.
But its calm under the waves, in the blue of my oblivion.
Under the waves in the blue of my oblivion.

Is that why they call me a sullen girl - sullen girl.
The dont know I used to sail the deep and tranquil sea.
But he washed me shore and he took my pearl -
And left an empty shell of me.

And theres too much going on.
But its calm under the waves, in the blue of my oblivion.
Under the waves in the blue of my oblivion.
Under the waves in the blue of my oblivion.
Its calm under the waves in the blue of my oblivion.

once and again i go back through yesterday's records searching for songs i might have missed when i get tired of hearing over & over shitty new artists that mean nothing except to sell...

and finding this song is such a pleasure and relief, it appeals so much to ones soul

She's the most brilliant song-writer I've ever heard.

Some say she wrote this song with her 12 year old assault in mind. I was assaulted at age 8, and I have to say, the song's words describe clearly what you feel.
