giants

I was watching Robby63's Tag video tonight where he talks briefly about "Landslide" by Stevie Nicks and it was a very fitting thing to listen to just before uploading this song. It's about moving past the parts of yourself that keep you tied to feelings and emotions that it's time to grow past. It's a good song. I had a picture in my head this afternoon of someone that i love but can't and shouldn't be stuck on having to take a trip that i can't take to a land where giants would kill me if i tried to enter. It sounds ridiculous, but i was very nearly laughing at myself thinking about how obsessive and awestruck i can be by the funniest silliest things. Like, for instance, I met this guy back in college in the middle of a snow storm or just after out at a local bar. He was adorable and really sweet and I was instantly drawn to him, but he took his gloves off and there was something about the texture of the black palms of those gloves facing up at the dim ceiling lights that made me feel overwhelmingly affectionate toward this guy. Gloves, freaking gloves! I mean, lol... it's just interesting to think that I can't really control what does or does not draw me to people, so I was thinking if I can't control it better, there had better be something big and crazy and terrible like giants on the other side to keep me away and protect me from myself! And in the end, being forced to, I'd gain that perspective that I didn't really want to go there anyway.

Id 'a liked to carpool, but the chlorine wouldnt take
So I had to drive alone to let the water in me break
You sped off to hidden lands where rumors of Giants
Make good on all your threats to us your ex- heart-broken clients
and I feel a little small along the way
and you get a little further everyday.

Picking up the paper and a bacon egg & cheese
i get checked out in line and take my coffee to the street
Im not necessarily ready to put my flirting hat back on
But I cant wear the shirt because your logos barely gone
And I feel a little naked along the way
and you get a little further everyday.

We stayed in touch too long, you know your giants sent me letters
But my pen is running out and I need to save it for my debtors
Cause I borrowed too much love and now I need to pay it back
But Im just coming up with likes and I cant cover up my tracks
And I feel a little owed along the way
And you get a little further everyday.

Companys on furlough, were not taking applications
Youll have to go pro-bono or post on Craigs List for a patron
Im glad to have the time, you know I rarely take vacation
if your heart is overflowing Im accepting all donations
and I feel a little warm along the way
as I come a little further everyday.
