I'm so stressed that time and then I started watching Westlife's Greatest Hits Tour. Imagine how my stress all flew away... gone to nowhere!
I love Westlife!

Two Lights: I almost broke!
"Tear out my heart
Feed it to lions
For this one wish I beg you this tonight
Show me no mercy
But spare me my pride
I'm going for a drive
And if you found out he's coming home
When I come around the corner
I know that it's alright
Just leave me two lights."
As I was listening to this song they called "Two Lights", I suddenly found myself stumbling over the lines to see the real meaning behind the lyrics. I was so touch by the music that I wanted to dwell with the lyrics somehow. Just this morning, I read the lines over and over again and I finally came to a certain interpretation which was somehow still vague and unclear: that this man talking in the song died and had came down to earth to see his loved ones. He feel so alone knowing that the people he loved so much couldn't see him in the eye once more for he's already but a soul roaming 'round the corner. I guess he's a soldier who'd been killed in a battle. A soldier down in a fire fight. no one will look me in the eye. This is what it feels to be alone. Till the end of the song I really believed I've got it right. However, what was meant by two light? Why were there Lions? (Questions unanswered!o.O)
But before the day ended, I've read a site discussing the real score behind this song. And it actually meant this way: The man's son set forth to a combat and there were rumors that a soldier in a unit which his son belonged died. As a father, he got this fear of losing his son, and so he himself went out for a drive to get some fresh air and find the best way to calm his storms. He asked his wife to leave two lights to indicate that everything's alright and that his son is in no shape dead. At the last part, as he stopped just near their house, he saw two lights, although it was not literally stated. As I lift my eyes, my eyes burn. However, it might not end that way. It could be that the son was actually dead already, and so the father's eyes burn crying. it's either way around. The writer actually left the ending up to the listeners to say that life may or may not have happy endings.
Honestly, I almost broke as I reread the lyrics. It's a beautiful song and it made me wonder how these people fixed their mind up to combine perfect words for a perfect song.
Two Lights, two thumbs up!

i'm alone but not lonely
I'm sitting on this cool green plastic chair facing a computer screen. A motor engine roared to life and a baby cried in the background. Some sort of TV shows were playing in the neighborhood. A carpenter was hammering something somewhere near my place. People around was busy. I'm alone, but not lonely!
And then I thought of this man I adored so much! He's good- looking and a perfect superstar item. He's been on my mind since the day I saw him on TV, playing his role on their music video. I knew him by name, by face, by height, by the color of his eyes, and by everything he's seen on the cam. I followed every link connected to him. And now, now that i knew so much about him, i feel helpless. Why? I realized that this feeling wasn't going anywhere good enough for me to be happy. It's such a shame, we're worlds apart.
Somehow, sometimes i wished i never knew much of him. Sometimes I wished I just knew him the way I wanted him to be. And once again I'm thinking about taking the easy way out. But nothing's like that. I want to get rid of this feeling, somehow. However, it makes me happy at some times. What am I gonna do if i let all of this go away?
Honestly, as i composed this thing, I suddenly feel so alone!
