I'm capsized, staring on the edge of safe

Artist- Tegan and Sara
Song of the day- The Con

At any given moment I believe there is a 64% chance I feel like a Tegan and Sara song. In fact I consistently felt like the entire The Con album after the first two years of it's release. It is forever on my top ten album list and usually on my emotional feelings via song list in heavy rotation. And I'm pretty sure this last quarter of school the percentile will only increase. I'm not saying they only have stressed out songs, but I just can't think of any other non angst type song of theirs at the moment. I feel like I, and pretty much everyone I'm in current contact with is being hit at every angle with death, mourning, sadness, doubt, anger, pressure, fear, exhaustion, worry, am I leaving anything out? oh probably, maybe like all the good and loving awesome stuff that is also happening but tends to get lost in the mess. That's why I like today's song. Similar to my ever annoying logic, their songs seem to always be fully aware of every emotion even the ridiculous ones and the one's you can't quite see but you know you need to be encircled and taken down by the people that care about you and the things that you love and that truly matter, you sometimes need to get your butt kicked into perspective so you can get out of your "con" funk and put on a different tune..more Marvin Gaye or "walkin on sunshine" esque type tune. But I do always appreciate the Tegan and Sara songs in my life till I can get back to walking on sunshine. If you're in a similar soundtrack, this one's for you.


Tegan and Sara - The con by shane707

I listened in
Yes I'm guilty of this
You should know this
I broke down and wrote you back
Before you had a chance to
Forget forgotten
I am moving past this giving notice
I have to go
Yes I know the feeling,
Know you're leaving
Calm down, I'm calling you to say
I'm capsized, staring on the edge of safe
Calm down, I'm calling back to say
I'm home now
I'm coming around, I'm coming around
Nobody likes to but I really like to cry
Nobody likes me
Maybe if I cry
Spelled out your name and lists the reasons
Faint of heart
Don't call me back
I imagine you when I was distant
Not insistent
I followed suit and laid out on my back imagine that
A million hours left to think of you
And think of that
Calm down, I'm calling you to say
I'm capsized, staring on the edge of safe
Calm down, I'm calling back to say
I'm home now
I'm coming around, I'm coming around
Nobody likes to but I really like to cry
Nobody likes me
Maybe if I cry
Encircle me, I need to be, taken down
Encircle me, I need to be, taken down
Encircle me, I need to be, taken down
Nobody likes to
But I really like to cry
Nobody likes me
Maybe if I cry
Nobody [x9]
Encircle me, I need to be, taken down
