Reminded

At DivorceCare, those wise to the temptations and threats born of divorce say there will be moments when you are brought back down, and hard, from where you were drifting along safely in the forgetfulness of time. Hearing this song, tonight, was one of mine.

"Swan Song" by A Fine Frenzy


Wretched, look at me, I've lost it
Melting on the table, in parking lots and markets
I can't help it, I love you like a starfish
Loves the salty water, like a selfish daughter

Yet I wrote the words to the swan song
The author of the wrong
And I said what I said and I meant it
But now I regret it

Foolish, how was I so careless?
Pawning off my treasure, the envy of an heiress
Now my dollars are crumbled in my pocket
How can I reclaim it? What if someone's got it?

When I wrote the words to the swan song
The author of the wrong
And I said what I said and I meant it
But now I regret it

How could the world have turned so ugly?
I am dying, could you touch me again?
Touch me again

When I wrote the words to the swan song
The author of the wrong
And I said what I said and I meant it
But now I regret it
