Sarah
I have been listening to Sarah McLachlan since I was 11 years old, almost 14 years of dedication and love of her music.. and her music has always touched a part of me that no other can come close to. She has eased me through loss, anger, love, and a whole lot of heartache... Since 2003, her latest album 'Afterglow' - one song has summed up my life and my relationships with men since moving to the Arizonan desert... the whole CD is fabulous, but 'Stupid' is how I feel most times...
Stupid
Night lift up the shades, let in the brilliant light of morning
But steady me now, for I am weak and starving for mercy
Sleep has left me alone, to carry the weight of unraveling where we went wrong
And all I can do to hang on, to keep me from falling into old familiar shoes
How stupid could I be?
A simpleton could see
That your no good for me
But you're the only one I see...
Love has made me a fool, set me on fire and watched as I floundered
Unable to speak, except to cry out and wait for your answer
And you come around in your time, speaking of fabulous places create
An oasis that dries up as soon as you're gone
You leave me here burning in this desert without you...
Everything changes, everything falls apart
I can't stand to feel myself losing control
In the deep of my weakness I know...
Who can I apply it to this month?
