Sunday Phonomantic Divinations May Be A Thing For A While

Sunday's are days for me to reset and rest, and they often comprise as much work as they do rest. They're Cusp Days. Threshold days. They're a unique perspective, as they're some of the only time I'm truly and completely alone, during the week.

Me As I See Myself: Jorane - Pour Ton Sourire

"Pour ton sourire, j'veux donner toutes mes nuits
Mes jours et tous mes rêves
Pour tes yeux et pour tes lèvres
Pour ton sourire"

Direct Influence: DeathBoy - [Capital Way You Make Me Feel (NIN vs Jacko vs DeathBoy)]

"Don't try to tell me that some power can corrupt a person
You haven't had enough to know what its like
You're only angry 'cause you wish you were in my position
Now nod your head because you know that I'm right... alright"

"The way you make me feel
(The way you make me feel)
You really turn me on
(You really turn me on)
You knock me off of my feet
(You knock me off of my feet)
My lonely days are gone
(My lonely days are gone)"

Goal: Tom Waits - [Down There by the Train]

"…well I've never asked forgiveness and
I've never said a prayer
I've never given of myself
I've never truly cared
I've hurt the ones who loved me
I'm still raising cain
I've taken the low road and
if you've done the same

meet me down there by the train
down there by the train…"

Recent Past: A New Found Glory - [Never Ending Story]

"Rhymes that keep their secrets
Will unfold behind the clouds
And there upon a rainbow
Is the answer to a never ending story"

Further Past: Voltaire - [The Night]

"…It just seems very strange to me
That her quiet lonely streets
And draped in all her mystery
Could be so sweet and comforting

'Cause the night, she calls me…"

Near Future: Lovesliescrushing - [Bloweyelashwish]


Me As Others See Me: Radiohead - [Life in a Glasshouse]

"…Once again, we are hungry for a lynching
That's a strange mistake to make
You should turn the other cheek
Living in a glass house

Well of course I'd like to sit around and chat
Well of course I'd like to stay and chew the fat
Well of course I'd like to sit around and chat
But someone's listening in…"

More Distant Future: Throwing Muses - Firepile

"…Think of all the junk
I could lay my hands on
Purify my heart

That firepile's your home…"

Emotional/Mental State: Warren Zevon - [Musings On Mortality, Song Noir And The King Of Rock N' Roll]

Ultimate Outcome: Tori Amos - [Toast]

"…On your right standing is
Mr. Bojangles
With a toast he's telling me it's time
To let you go
Let you go

I thought I'd see you again
You said you might do
Maybe in a carving
In a cathedral
Somewhere in Barcelona…"

Clarification: Snake River Conspiracy - [Casualty]

"I'm a casualty of you
Just a casualty of you
Opportunity for me to prove again how easily you just
Want you to stay with me
More than would die to be, your casualty"
