.a story about a girl.

it's 630 in the morning. why is it, that when i crash, i wake up at the weirdest times? i wish i didn't. i think i know why though. i think it's just subconscious. but anyway, my itunes was up when i came over to my computer, and i saw this song on there.

i've been a huge fan of Our Lady Peace for forever, and this song, A Story About A Girl, is one of my favorite songs ever, ever, ever. it was when the CD came out and has been ever since. it's just perfect in all the ways that a song can be perfect, so i decided to share. if you'd like me to send you the song let me know and i will gladly do so.

and right now i feel like listening to it over and over and over. so that's what i'm going to do while i try to fall back asleep.

suddenly i'm something i'm not
i'm something that you bought
was it something i said, my friend
little girl are you tripping on this
are you tripping all over it
you better come up for air

a story about a girl
a story about the world

are you waking up slowly
nothing but lonely
are you waking up
holding, holding your breath
are you looking for something
i promise you one thing
i promise i'll always, always be there

baby girl stand up and fight
this is not some paradise
this is just where we live
finally you think you're all right
then it eats you up alive
you better get used to it

a story about a girl
a story about the world

are you waking up slowly
nothing but lonely
are you waking up
holding, holding your breath
are you looking for something
i promise you one thing
i promise i'll always, always be there

with all my faith
with all my heart
and all those simple things you are

i know you're stuck inside your head
your low, you better get used to it
and i know the feeling has to end
we all struggle, it sucks you in again
and your lust, it can't make any sense
this world, it tears you limb from limb
in your world you're nothing but the best

are you waking up slowly
nothing but lonely
are you waking up
holding, holding your breath
are you looking for something
i promise you one thing
i promise i'll always, always be there

with all my faith
and all my heart
and all those simple things
you are
