I thrive best, hermit style

Sometimes my Ipod knows me a little too well.

The first time I heard this song (around three years ago), I immediately put it on repeat. I would listen to nothing else for the entire week. I hate it when people say this but since it's true, I'm going to say it as well: It spoke to me. There are a lot of love songs that hit the spot, but only some of them hit the right one. This one is bullseye for me.

My Ipod just happened to play it two days ago and I thought to myself, "How beautifully appropriate."

Bjork - Unison

One hand allows the other
So much and me

Born stubborn me
Will always be
Before you count
One two three
I will have grown my own private branch
Of this tree

You gardener
You discipliner
Domestically
I can obey all of your rules
And still be, be

I never thought I would compromise
I never thought I would compromise
I never thought I would compromise

Let's unite tonight
We shouldn't fight
Embrace you tight
Let's unite tonight

I thrive best hermit style
With a beard and a pipe
And a parrot on each side
But now I can't do this without you

I never thought I would compromise
I never thought I would compromise
I never thought I would compromise

Let's unite tonight
We shouldn't fight
Embrace you tight
Let's unite tonight

One hand loves the other
So much and me

Let's unite tonight
We shouldn't fight
Embrace you tight
Let's unite tonight

Let's unite tonight
We shouldn't fight
Embrace you tight
Let's
Ooohhhh ooohh

I read somewhere, though, that "Vespertine" is an album about the September 11 attacks. That means I am reading the song all wrong. It doesn't matter.
