To continue in the direction of songs that really resonate with me and possibly others whose brains are hot-wired like mine, I’ll periodically post the song(s) that have really inspired me or threw some light on an unexamined idea or belief. Anyone reading this should also feel free to contribute a song or two that has helped them cope or has uplifted them or has just gotten them through a rough patch. I think this could be really beneficial, because as we all know sometimes an idea must be beaten into our thick skulls in every way imaginable before we fully absorb it. Sometimes a song comes along and gets you where you belong.
The song that first comes to mind is “Staple It Together” by Jack Johnson
If you don’t know the song then read these lyrics and see if this sparks you.
Its really
Too bad
He became a prisoner of his own past
He stabbed the moment in the back
With the round thumbtack
That held up the list of things he gotta do
Its really,
No good
He’s moving on before he understood
He shot the future in the foot with every step he took
From the places that he’s been cause he forgot to look
Better staple it together and call it bad weather
Staple it together and call it bad weather
Mm hmm
Well I guess you could say
That he don’t even know where to begin
Cause he looked both ways but he was so afraid
Digging deep into the ditch
With every chance he missed
And the mess he made
Cause hate is such a strong word
And every brick he laid
A mistake they say
That his walls are getting taller
His world is getting smaller
Better staple it together and call it bad weather
Staple it together and call it bad weather
Mm hmm
