Random Thoughts, No. 2

Hey, sorry guys. I know that I've fallen off the radar for a month, but I've been going through some rough spots. Dealing with depression, that sort of thing. And I'm sorry that I don't have anything big to post, but I'm having trouble with an idea. I have one half done, but it's really angry and I'd rather not post it. So I've come back with some random thoughts, in the form of a song.



We've all heard the David Archuleta single "Crush" by now. Many people will usually scoff at this song, because, c'mon...the kid was on American Idol and WASN'T a cool rocker dude. But I actually listened to the lyrics when watching the music video one day, and found the experience haunting. It's as if the kid, or whoever wrote the song, took the horrible experience of having a crush on someone and put it into an insidiously catchy song. I enjoyed him singing about what everyone feels at one point in their lives, so I wanted to share it with you.



"I hung up the phone tonight,something happened for the first time, deep inside
It was a rush, what a rush
Cause the possibility that you would ever
Feel the same way about meIt’s just too much, just too much
Why do I keep running from the truth
All I ever think about is you
You got me hypnotized, so mesmerized, and I just got to know


Do you ever think, when you’re all alone
All that we could be,
Where this thing could go
Am I crazy or falling in loveIs it real or just another crush
Do you catch a breath, when I look at youAre you holding back, like the way I do
Cause I’m trying, trying to walk away
But I know this crush ain’t goin away, goin away


Has it ever crossed your mind when we were hanging
Spending time girl, are we just friends
Is there more, is there more
See it’s a chance we’ve gotta take
Cause I believe we can make this into
Something that will last, last forever, forever


Do you ever think, when you’re all alone
All that we could be,
Where this thing could go
Am I crazy or falling in loveIs it real or just another crush
Do you catch a breath, when I look at you
Are you holding back, like the way I do
Cause I’m trying, trying to walk away
But I know this crush ain’t goin away, goin away


Why do I keep running from the truth
All I ever think about is you
You got me hypnotized, so mesmerized

And I just got to know
Do you ever think, when you’re all alone

All that we could be, Where this thing could go
Am I crazy or falling in love
Is it realor just another crush
Do you catch a breath, when I look at you
Are you holding back, like the way I do
Cause I’m trying, trying to walk away
But I know this crush ain’t goin away, goin away."



--David Achuleta

So hopefully you'll go listen to that song, because I think it's worth the time. I know most people aren't fans of girly pop, but this is a song that I'll be listening to for awhile. So I'll leave you guys with that for now. I'm working on another big post, I promise. The right idea is just not coming to me at the moment. Until next time, readers.
