…and smile. Never leave me paralyzed, love. Leave me hypnotized, love.
Something about this song, and hearing it at this moment in my life, evokes the most irrational of emotions. And these emotions threaten to destruct the very path that I have been constructing for the majority of my life.
I have always prided myself on being on top of things — knowing exactly what I want and how to get there. This is my sole advantage in life, the fact that I appear to have everything figured out long before my peers even begin to contemplate their own futures.
Apparently, all it takes is one song to crumble everything that I have built. Something about the music creates a startling reality check. What am I doing with my life? Logistically, I have everything planned out. My plan works, I know it does. It will get me where I need to be. But is it wrong to want something more? Not to bring up a cliche, but life is short. It really is. Do I want to spend it in my comfort zone, where everything I know about the world comes from a computer? I have always argued the side of the cookie-cutter, stubbornly proclaiming that there is nothing wrong with the conventional. But safety come with a price and the more I immerse myself in the music, the words, the images….the more I realize that I would rather be writing my own stories than sitting here, desperately longing for the imaginary.
