"In the Deep" - Bird York
I haven't listened to this song in almost a year now. Somehow this and Cold Play is still hard to bear, but at least Cold Play warns me ahead of time with their familiar hellos. Ms. York sneaks up on me, but only for the first 7 seconds. It's then that I recognize her and shuffle her back with the rest. She used to find her way out quite often, but since January she's been laying low. I was grateful for that. It helped me get through March fairly easily. My iPod has been good to me for the most part and it didn't hurt me today. It was all Pandora's fault.
I was organizing my storage room at work and knew that I wouldn't get by with just my thoughts to keep me company. It can get a little creepy being stuck in such a small room by myself, but I just had to suck it up and make the best of it. I could always use a little Tori to break the silence and so I pulled out my phone and clicked on "Tori Radio." The first song was Horses followed by Shawn Colvin's Sunny Came Home and Mazzy Star's Fade into You. I was beginning to think that my phone and iPod were having a thing behind my back.
A couple of interesting songs came up too by artists Charlotte Martin (she sounds a lot like a young Tori) and The Veronicas. I'll be blogging about them soon just because they caught my attention and stuff like that can't ever go unnoticed. I'm not good at keeping secrets. Anyway, so far I was feeling productive and loving the music when in walks Ms. York.
"Thought you had all the answers...," asked Ms. York.
"Sigh...thought you got the hint," I muttered under my breath.
She didn't. She just kept on going and I was literally stuck between a rock in a hard place with boxes all around me and my phone wedged on the top shelf so that it won't accidentally get knocked down. Genius me.
"Hey, I thought it was safe!" I said aloud to myself.
My chest started to burn. I felt dizzy.
"Now you're out there spinning..." concurred Ms. York.
I looked up and away from my mess. I wanted to reach for my phone, but then again I had to face the fact that things like this are bound to happen so I looked back at all the empty boxes and started to fill them up. Ms. York sang away and I was doing a pretty good job ignoring her. That is until she said her very last line, "If you want to be given everything, give everything up."
I pulled the dagger out of my heart and sat down in the middle of a very dusty floor.
"That's what I thought..." I whispered to no one.
Lyrics:
Thought you had
All the answers
To rest your heart upon.
But something happens,
Don't see it coming, now
You can't stop yourself.
Now you're out there swimming...
In the deep.
In the deep.
Life keeps tumbling your heart in circles
Till you... Let go.
Till you shed your pride, and you climb to heaven,
And you throw yourself off.
Now you're out there spinning...
In the deep.
In the deep.
In the deep.
In the deep.
And now you're out there spinning...
And now you're out there spinning...
In the deep.
In the deep.
In the deep.
And the silence,
All your secrets will
Raise their weary heads.
Well, you can pin yourself back together,
Well, who here thought you would?
Now you're out there livin'...
In the deep.
In the deep.
In the deep.
In the deep...
Now you're out there spinning...
Now you're out there swimming...
Now you're out there spinning...
In the deep.
In the deep.
In the deep.
In the deep...
