i mean, so does everyone. but music can transform my mood completly; take me out of a deep depression or bring me into one. and i can listen to one song a million times and have it relate to my life a different way each time.

rebellion (lies) by arcade fire really struck me this afternoon. it's all about what is socially acceptable; what we choose to beleive and pass on to future generations no matter how untrue it is. if we keep up this faccade, we must hide what is real in our dreams and under the covers. but it us up to the listener to decide if it is the real world is a lie, or our dreams.

"Sleeping is giving in,
no matter what the time is.
Sleeping is giving in,
so lift those heavy eyelids.

People say that you'll die
faster than without water.
But we know it's just a lie,
scare your son, scare your daughter.

People say that your dreams
are the only things that save ya.
Come on baby in our dreams,
we can live on misbehavior.

Every time you close your eyes
Lies, lies!

People try and hide the night
underneath the covers.
People try and hide the light
underneath the covers.

Hidin' from your brothers
underneath the covers,
come on hide your lovers
underneath the covers."
