Theme song of the moment

Two posts in one day?! Or actually, technically it's Wednesday. Sweet. Who knows. Maybe I'll post again tomorrow (today) after I've slept.

So, this song came on my iPod on shuffle and I realized that (for the moment) it is my theme song - meaning it pretty much describes the way I feel about all aspects of my life right now - so I had to post it right now or it was going to haunt me. I've always loved this song, but I hadn't listened to it in a while, so I hadn't thought of it until it came on by chance. It makes me feel better when I have a song that fits my feelings/mood perfectly. I know I've already posted two Imogen Heap songs, but I guess her music just speaks to me. This song really is beautiful though. I would say "stormy" is an appropriate word for it.

The Walk by Imogen Heap, from her album "Speak for Yourself" (I seem to like this album more than her others apparently, though I love them all):

Inside-out, upside-down,
Twisting beside myself.
Stop that now,
'Cause you and I were never meant to be.
I think you'd better leave.
It's not safe in here.
I feel a weakness coming on.

Alright then, (alright then.)
I could keep your number for a rainy day.
That's where this ends.
No mistakes no misbehaving.
I was doing so well.
Could we just be friends?
I feel a weakness coming on.

It's not meant to be like this.
Not what I planned at all.
I don't want to feel like this. Yeah.
No it's not meant to be like this.
Not what I planned at all.
I don't want to feel like this.
So that makes it all your fault.

Inside-out, upside-down,
Twisting beside myself.
Stop that now.
You're as close as it gets
Without touching me.
Oh now don't make it harder
Than it already is.
I feel a weakness coming on.

It's not meant to be like this.
Not what I planned at all.
I don't want to feel like this. Yeah.
No it's not meant to be like this.
Not what I planned at all.
I don't want to feel like this.
So that makes it all your fault.

Big trouble, losing control.
Primary resistance at a critical low.
on the double, gotta get a hold.
Point of no return, one second to go.

No response on any level,
Red-alert, this vessel's under seige.
Total overload, all systems down, they've got control.
There's no way out.
We are surrounded.
Give in, give in and relish every minute of it.

Freeze or make it forever.
I feel a weakness coming on.

It’s not meant to be like this,
Not what I planned at all.
I don’t want to feel like this. Yeah.
No it’s not meant to be like this,
It's just what I don't need.
Why make me feel like this?
It's definitely all your fault.
