"Fruit Fly" By Nada Surf
Left some food wrapped up
In a plastic bag
On the kitchen table
Way too long
I sat down to eat
Next to the bag
I was too tired
To throw it out
I saw a swarm of fruit flies
I took the bag downstairs
When i came back
They were still there
Flying jerky patterns
Like snowflakes in the air
I'm sorry you've got nowhere to go
Left straight right straight
I can't find a reason
I know i'll keep going but
I can't find a reason
Nothing looks right
Nothing smells right
And i can't land
Geometric patterns
Smearing out of control
Only have enough gas left
For the beercan to the bowl
What can you do but go on?
Oh no you make your own mistakes
I cannot bring them back to you
Oh no you make your own mistakes
I cannot measure up to you
This song relates to me because of my acting career. I got my self so deep in the business that at this point it is practically the only thing I'm good at. So if I go starving for a while. Where would I go? I probably wouldn't be skilled in much else so I have nothing to do but continue and persue my dream. It sounds like a curse but it is actually a blessing.
"Are You Lightning?" By Nada Surf
And so we meet and there are sparks,
Its gold it's new and free from sharks,
Your house is big it seems so clean,
Your cleaning lady comes and we're discreet.
Are you lightning?
'Cause I'm waiting.
What's the timing?
I'm not playing.
And so I act like I'm 21,
Wide eyed and drifting unto sun,
Pay back is here my legs are numb,
I'm back, it's square one feeling dumb.
The sweet things,
When do they come?
Have I gone deaf?
What's the song?
Are you lightning?
'Cause I'm waiting,
This is frightening,
I'm not playing.
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh...
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh...
I see you in my sheets, I see you in my sleep,
I see you through the mirror
You sing we're not to steal.
The only thing I'm scared of is the secret that you keep,
I know where you are, I dunno where you are.
Don't make the other wonder the others might sting,
Tell me what you're thinking,
Do not let me twist.
Just look at the size of you.
I see you in my sheets, I see you in my sleep,
I see you with something that's funny I hear you I almost weep,
I see you from my steps, you're walking up my street,
But just look at the size of you.
I see you in my sheets, I see you in my sleep,
I see you from my steps you're walking up my street.
And just look at the size of you,
The sun shine on and on...
The sun shine on and on...
This song relates to me because of something that everyone experiences pretty much, but this happends to me a little too much. Have you ever liked or loved someone so much that you can't just get rid of them. You see them everywhere you go and everything you do. The part of the song that stuck to me the most was when the artist says "I see you in my sheets, I see you in my sleep, I see you from my steps walking up my street". It sucks that I can't get rid of certain people. Maybe God is telling me to go after the girls?
