The Smiths - How Soon Is Now

I am the son
and the heir
of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
of nothing in particular

You shut your mouth
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does

I am the son
and the heir
of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and the heir
of nothing in particular

You shut your mouth
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does

There's a club if you'd like to go
you could meet somebody who really loves you
so you go, and you stand on your own
and you leave on your own
and you go home, and you cry
and you want to die

When you say it's gonna happen "now"
well, when exactly do you mean?
see I've already waited too long
and all my hope is gone

You shut your mouth
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does

The last two lines must be in everybody's mind... Don't be afraid to love someone... it will certainly pay you back ;-)

and then yet.
you might say.
don't be lazy to love.
and if you're lazy in general.
you get a bit weird.

and then, we are all humans, as mighty morissey said - but in this sea of love-craving humans, "some girls are bigger than others".. (or in other words - my personal interpretation - some are better equipped for life than others)

but oh shite, how trivial all this stuff is - αμπελοφιλοσοφείν.. never to be taken seriously.

".. i'm only human
of flesh and blood i'm made
i'm only human
born to make mistakes.."
as the human league say..

and then - everybody's talking about this type of things - the need to be loved (is there a need to LOVE?) and stuff. this and that..

nilsson also complains a little bit about everybody talking..

"...Everybody's talking at me.
I don't hear a word they're saying,
Only the echoes of my mind.
People stopping staring,
I can't see their faces,
Only the shadows of their eyes..."

and then sometimes.. after your want of staying alone gets fulfilled - you start to ache in your heart about the heart of your loneliness.. and you want to hear someone near to you who just keeps talking..

"..It doesn't have to be like this
All we need to do is make sure we keep talking.."

brain salad surgery...

good luck!

"Last night I dreamt
that somebody loved me
no hope - but no harm
just another false alarm..."

Agree with the Professor Stephen Hawking's sayings... don't care if it comes from his voice synthesizer or not...

"..Last night I felt
real arms around me
no hope-but no harm
just another false alarm

so, tell me how long
before the last one?
and tell me how long
before the right one?
this story is old-I KNOW
but it goes on..."

Keep walking... keep living... keep smiling...
