A dreamer

My officemate and I went to this CD sale last Friday. Was able to buy a couple of CDs (100 bucks each :p)–The Best of the Gin Blossoms, Skin by Melissa Etheridge, Bounce by Bon Jovi (yeah I know—don’t remind me…friends, please be kind!), and All About Chemistry by Semisonic.

It’s only now that I realize why Zach (of Zach & Joey) loves this Semisonic album–it’s so damn good! Killer lyrics to the max The album includes old favorites like Chemistry, El Matador, and Act Naturally. I love this track called One True Love (pang LSS, hehehehe) but this song called I Wish describes best what I’m feeling right now (I’m sure my smart friends can read between the lines…sorry na lang to the less gifted ones, bwahahahaha!). So here goes…

I wish I could be anyone but the one that I am now
I wish I could see any scene but the one I hang around
I wish I could do anything but the things I always do
No matter how I try to sing along
Something is always wrong
What I wish I knew

I wish I could turn into somebody far, far away
I wish I could make myself satisfactory in every way
I wish I could know whether you really know what you need
If I could only be somebody else
I wouldn’t be myself
And maybe you’d want me

I can try to please you
Get down on my knees for you
Go outside and freeze for you
Swim the high seas for you
Whatever you need me to
I’ve been climbing the trees for you
Twisting in the breeze for you
But one thing I can never, never do
I can’t believe for you
I can’t believe for you
I can’t believe in me for you …

"I have been played for a fool by someone I thought was worth of my love and my time." Hay, the story of my life…sheesh…oh well… I’m ending this post with one of my favorite quotes from "My-So-Called-Life"–

"First admit it. That…I EXIST… That you have emotions, and you can’t just treat me one way in front of your friends, and then leave me some private note that’s the exact opposite." (Angela Chase)
