OMG – heard this song (see below) on the old ipod I have with songs the former sister put on it. I’ll bold the lines that stood out to me, but really the whole thing makes me feel like artists, meaning musicians I hear radomly, they know something’s up. It’s strange that I don’t run into more people who do, then again the people I run into, I don’t talk to long here like I used to like when I was living out of the car in Newark, NJ or even when I did also in Philadelphia. I guess having a place to stay inside of keeps me away from the public, then the people I do see, I just don’t talk to them long, but I really do like the people that work here at the hotel I’m staying at. Anyway, here are the lyrics, so clear he’s talkin about devil whirl.
P.S. The lines I bolded just mean to me that people seem to kind of not care, to kind of be indifferent to things being fucked up, which, as I said before, is incredibly annoying. And then the second area I bolded, also soooo good, relates to “right” and “wrong” being OFF here, yet people follow it. Irritating.
“Livin’ On The Edge”
By Aerosmith
I don’t know what it is
Something’s wrong with our eyes
And God knows it ain’t his
It shore ain’t no surprise
Livin’ on the edge
Livin’ on the edge
Livin’ on the edgeThere’s somethin’ wrong with the world today
The light bulb’s gettin dim
There’s meltdown in the sky
If you can judge a wise man
By the color of his skin
Then mister you’re a better man than I
[Chorus:]
Livin’ on the edge
You can’t help yourself from fallin’
Livin’ on the edge
You can’t help yourself at all
Livin’ on the edge
You can’t stop yourself from fallin’
Livin’ on the edge
Tell me what you think about your sit-u-a-tion
Complication – aggravation
Is getting to you
If chicken little tells you that the sky is fallin’
Even if it wasn’t would you still come crawlin’
Back again
I bet you would my friend
Again & again & again & again & again
Tell me what you think about your sit-u-a-tion
Complication – aggravation
Is getting to you
If chicken little tells you that the sky is fallin’
Even if it was would you still come crawlin’
Back again
I bet you would my friend
Again & again & again & again
Something right with the world today
And everybody knows it’s wrong
But we can tell ’em no or we could let it go
But I’d would rather be a hanging on
[Chorus]
Livin’ on the edge
Livin’ on the edge
Livin’ on the edge
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Livin’ on the edge
You can’t help yourself
You can’t help yourself
Livin’ on the edge
You can’t help yourself at all
Livin’ on the edge
You can’t help yourself
You can’t help yourself
Livin’ on the edge
You can’t help yourself
You can’t help yourself
Livin’ on the edge
You can’t help yourself from fallin’
