it has only been a few days since i last posted... but realli, it feels like ages... =p (hmmmm, wut does that mean?)
i thought a lot in the past two weeks or less... about relationship, uni n basically life in general - wut am i doin w/my life... ??!!??!!??!!
i feel like i'm in an early-adult crisis... not knowing where my life is heading can be quite frightening :s

n in some ways i relate myself to the song (in strange ways tho,lol)Sunny Came Home

i think the story in this song is about a woman, Sunny, who is in a relationship which she wants to discontinue... (maybe an abusive relationship? or just one that isn't working out)...
it seems that she's been contemplating on what to do - "she says days go by i'm hypnotized (or i don't know why), i''m walkin on a wire, i close my eyes n fly out of my mind, into the fire"
n has found what she wants n needs - "get the kids n bring a sweater, dry is good n wind is better, count the years, u always knew it..."
now the only thing left to do is to put her thoughts into action - "strike a match go on n do it"...
and i think she did do something about her problem bcuz this is what happened - "light the sky n hold on tight, the world is burning down, she's out there on her own and she's alright"
think Sunny left her husband/boyfriend/partner n "came home" (maybe to her parents' home, or just a metaphor saying that she figured out what to do, did wut she needed to do n now she is free from that state of mind of feelin the pain, determining what to do, n doing it)

so am i tryin to get out of a relationship? lol, no... that's not how i relate to this song... (and in fact, the older i get, the more i want to try fix n treasure my relationships... it's such a blessing even if it's only 1 or 2 tight ones)

so how did i relate to this song?
obviously the feeling of being lost; the thinking process thru problems; making a decision n goin for it, and the rewarding n comforting feeling of overcoming ur probs n fears (that i'm no longer stuck in the "hypnotizing" thinking that humans can get into n i can move on. sometimes some types of thinking can b so stressful, unhealthy n even unnecessary. but then again, if i didn't go thru those kinds of thinking, i won't be where i am at... so it's like a love-hate relationship! lol great...)

so yup, if u were wondering wut this song could be about.. there's my lil idea =p any comments? or other ways of looking at this song???

p.s. thx to those who took time out to listen n talk w/me =)
