I'm in love with this song by John Mayer. Has been my number one for the past few weeks. Wah. Its so jiwang and its got soul. The twanging of his guitar just intensifies the mood.
It's not a silly little moment
It's not the storm before the calm
This is the deep and dyin breath of
this love we've been workin on
Can't seem to hold you like I want to
so I can feel you in my arms
Nobody's gonna come and save you
we pulled too many false alarms
We're goin down
and you can see it too
We're goin down
and you know that we're doomed
my dear
we're slow dancing in a burnin room
I was the one you always dreamed of
you were the one i tried to draw
how dare you say it's nothin to me
baby, you're the only light I ever saw
I make the most of all the sadness
you'll be a bitch because you can
you try to hit me just to hurt me
so you leave me feelin dirty cuz you can't understand
We're goin down
and you can see it too
We're goin down
and you know that we're doomed
my dear
we're slow dancing in a burnin room
Go cry about it why don't you
my dear, we're slow dancin in a burnin room
burnin room, burnin room
don't you think we oughta know by now
don't you think we shoulda learned somehow
don't you think we shoulda learned somehow
don't you think we shoulda learned somehow
It reminds me of an example someone gave me about a frog in boiling water. If you throw a frog into boiling water, the frog will jump out immediately. However, if you put the frog in normal water and bring it to a boil, the frog wont know any better and will slowly die. Ouch. Can't recall where i heard this or even if its true but- poor frog.
I think i can see the frog in the song.
