Confusion BEGONE!

So, I finally remembered to do this. I discovered this in like, September, but I didn't even think of posting it till now. In the song Lonely No More by Rob Thomas, there is a line that sounds suspiciously like "Open up to me, and I could do your girlfriend." After Janna dear gave me the CD for my birthday, I made a point of checking the liner notes for the lyrics, and there it was. The actual lyric is "Open up to me, like you do your girlfriends." Basically saying "You can talk to me just as openly as you do when you're with friends of the same gender." So now that we aren't totally confused and squicked out, let's all gather round the Compy 2310, and bask in the glow of the wonderfulness of Rob Thomas.

I Am An Illusion

Take this confusion
Runnin' round my head
Take back my unkind words
Lay that weight on me instead
I'm the place where everything turns sour
Where you gonna run to now

Wrong step
We got off track
We need someone to help us get back now
Worn thin
Awful state I was in
I believe I was losing me now I'm found
I am found

But I'm not real anymore
I am an illusion

I am the damage
I am the relief
Sometimes I'm people
I never hoped that I would be
If I take in whatever they turn out
What's that gonna make me now
Don't you understand
I'm not real anymore
I am an illusion
Wrong step
We got off track
We need someone to help us get back now

Worn thin
Awful state I was in
I believe they were fooling me
Now I'm down
I am down

But I'm not real anymore

It must be a beautiful song, musically. I hope so, 'cause I don't really get the lyrics. But that's just the dinoaur in me talking.

(I know, I know, "Loooooser!!"

I've been a fan since 1996.
I adore him.
Love his song writing. Personally I think he's brilliant.

I used to have a Rob based blog design going on- but I change my blog design a LOT
