stop and stare



I like this song. this song makes me ponder. The way i see it, it has got 2 meanings to me, the maksud tersurat is what i've been doing all my life, stop & stare whenever there's a hot chick nearby. The other maksud tersirat (well, the way I interpret it as anyway) is the one that makes me think, makes you wonder, throughout the hustle and bustle of our ever so busy lives in the city, sometimes from all the activities you do, you don't get anywhere, you realize you're still in first base. The one thing that really sends jolts to my brain is.. hmm.. I don't even know or plan where or what I want to be or my what my plans are. I've friends that has 5 or 10 or 15 plans... but I've not really got one yet. Now, that is scary. Anyway, it also tells us not to let fear stop you.

Anyway, here're the lyrics. Great song, I like how good he can still sing it live:

This town is colder now, I think it's sick of us
It's time to make our move, I'm shakin off the rust
I've got my heart set on anywhere but here
I'm staring down myself, counting up the years
Steady hands, just take the wheel...
And every glance is killing me
Time to make one last appeal for the life I lead

*Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
And I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be, oh
Stop and stare
I've got to wonder why I'm here not there
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Oh, can you see what I see

They're tryin to come back, all my senses push
Un-tie the weight bags, I never thought I could...
Steady feet, don't fail me now
Gonna run till you can't walk
But something pulls my focus out
And I'm standing down...

Repeat *

What you need, what you need...

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
And I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be
Oh, do you see what I see...
