Shake It Out, Florence and the Machine

OOC: Whenever I just listen to this song it never fails to lift me up. It’s like the words just slam into me and I am left speechless and I am left feeling a whole lot better, I guess it’s because of the way Flo writes her songs and the way she delivers it. But whenever I hear this verse in the song it makes so much sense to me. All the things I’ve done that I have regretted and wish to forget drag me down, therefore not giving me the inner peace that I so crave. And then there comes a time where I just have to let go of all the regrets and “bury that horse”, because in that way will I be able to finally be happy. Also, I know that it is darkest before the dawn. When my father died I never thought I would get out from that dark hole that I dug for myself, constantly beating myself up and blaming myself for his death, and then something happened in my life that made me see that there is hope after all, that even if I have lost someone that I love and admired so much, I can still be happy, and when I ended grieving, I felt like I saw the sunrise for the first time again, and it was wonderful.

I guess some people just don’t understand why I’m such a fan of Florence and the Machine. Maybe it’s because they haven’t experienced what she writes in her songs, or maybe they don’t get the lyrics. The thing is, there are many sides to a story, you just have to look at it from a different perspective. :P

Now I better stop writing before I suddenly go into a discussion about grapes or pinapples or my goldfish who I named Sharpener. Yes, Sharpener. And I had a cat named Pencil and a dog named Eraser. And I was supposed to make a comic about them, called-OH DEAR I’LL SHUT UP NOW THANK YOU AND BYE.
