just because
(march 17, 2002)
listening: i know fiona
apple
reading: countless journals and articles about integrated marketing
communications and the change of the advertising industry all across the
world and why and how and why some more. and i thought ads are just naked
buxom ladies selling beer.
Can't really get
my thoughts in order to write much here since my thoughts these past few
days have been focused mostly on how to start my 3000-word seminar paper
on the wonderful and intriguing change that the advertising world is undertaking.
Which is due this Thursday. Which I still have no idea what to write.
Anyway, have been
listening to this song countless times the past few hours/weeks/months.
The idea that someone out there is willing to be this patient with some
other person, sort of clarifies the word unconditional.
I Know Fiona
Apple
So be it, I’m your crowbar
If that’s what I am so far
Until you get out of this mess
And I will pretend
That I don’t know of your sins
Until you are ready to confess
But all the time, all the time
I’ll know, I’ll know
And you can use my
skin
To bury secrets in
And I will settle you down
And at my own suggestion,
I will ask no questions
While I do my thing in the background
But all the time, all the time
I’ll know, I’ll know
Baby-I can’t help you out,
while she’s still around
So for the time being,
I’m being patient
And amidst this bitterness
If you’ll just consider this-
even if it don’t make sense
All the time-give it time
And when the crowd
becomes your burden
And you’ve early closed your curtains,
I’ll wait by the backstage door
While you try to find the lines to speak your mind
And pry it open, hoping for an encore
And if it gets too late,
for me to wait
For you to find you love me,
and tell me so
It’s ok, don’t need to say it.
