Putting it in song

Going to express myself in song, because the words haven't found me or haven't moved me yet. Two of my all-time favorite songs (regardless of who remixes them because they're that fantastic) are included:

Miike Snow's "Animal"

There was a time when my world was filled with darkness, darkness, darkness
And I stopped dreaming now 
I'm supposed to fill it up with something, something , something
In your eyes I see the eyes of somebody I knew before long long long ago
But I'm still trying to make my mind up
Am I free or am I tied up

I change shapes just to hide in this place but I'm still, I'm still an animal
Nobody knows it but me when I slip yeah I slip
I'm still an animal

There is a hole and I tried to fill up with money, money , money
But it gets bigger to your hopes is always

Running, running, running

In your eyes I see the eyes of somebody of who could be strong
Tell me if I'm wrong
And now I'm pulling your disguise up 
Are you free or are you tied up

I change shapes just to hide in this place but I'm still I'm still an animal
Nobody knows it but me when I slip
I'm still an animal

I change shapes just to hide in this place 
But I'm still I'm still an animal
Nobody knows it but me when I slip, yeah I slip
I'm still an animal

[Repeat x2]
I change shapes just to hide in this place 
But I'm still, I'm still an animal
Nobody knows it but me when I slip yeah I slip
I'm still an animal

The Submarines' "1940" (Amplive Remix)

Something's wrong when you regret
Things that haven't happened yet
But it's a glorious day when morning comes
Without the feeling of alarm

So rise, and shine
Now's the time to be alive
To stay awake with me a while, and smile

You couldn't sleep for the awful fright
That kept you up in bed last
But curious shape shift in the dark,
They vanish with the sunrise spark

So rise, and shine
Now's the time to be alive
To stay awake with me a while, and smile

So rise, and shine
Now's the time to be alive
To stay awake with me a while

So rise, and shine
Now's the time to be alive
To stay awake with me a while, and smile

Something's wrong

We can discuss how phenomenal my taste in music is later. For now, just sit back, and meditate on the lyrics.
