...........................................
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm movin' past the feeling
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm movin' past the feeling and into the night

So can you understand?
Why I want a daughter while I'm still young
I wanna hold her hand
And show her some beauty
Before this damage is done

But if it's too much to ask, it's too much to ask
Then send me a son

Under the overpass
In the parking lot we're still waiting
It's already passed
So move your feet from hot pavement and into the grass
Cause it's already passed
It's already, already passed!

Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm movin' past the feeling
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm movin' past the feeling again

I'm movin' past the feeling
I'm movin' past the feeling

In my dreams we're still screamin'
We're still screamin'
We're still screamin'


lyrics [arcadefire]

sometimes it is unimaginable how much music affects me.
i have listened to this song one billion gajillion times.
i swear.
arcade fire is my shit.
and then today i read the lyrics for the first time.
and i lost my mind.
right there in front of a bunch of strangers.
i couldn't believe it.
something that you are already so familiar with.
and think you know inside and out.
and then you discover something new about it.
and it tears to shreds.
with its power.

how can a song.
one fucking song.
describe what i feel in my heart.
so accurately.
without me even knowing it was there.
