This is a song I've been listening recently. Alot. It's really catchy =D! Just a FIY, Epiphany in this case means a sudden, intuitive perception of or insight into the reality or essential meaning of something, usually initiated by some simple, homely, or commonplace occurrence or experience. Or A comprehension or perception of reality by means of a sudden intuitive realization. In layman's terms, it's like having an enlightening of sorts. Anyway, I really like this song =). Might be putting it up onto my blog if anyone asks=p. Or if anyone wants this song feel free to ask =).
"Epiphany" by Bowling for soup
Stop before you get me started,
Maybe I'll just go.
I'm not exactly broken hearted,
But I think you already know.
That there's more to the story than I'm givin' up,
Maybe I should just grow up.
There's a picture of a girl somewhere
That fits this empty frame...
And there's a song here somewhere,
with a happier refrain..
It came to me, I think they call it an epiphany,
And that's a big word.
[Chorus:]
All I ever wanted was a little extra ordinary,
Somewhat documented and depicted in this book of memories.
That's as empty as a broken glass,Or a gas tank in my car.
If you can hear me now,
Come out, come out, wherever you are...
I try so hard not to remember,
I wish I could forget.
The thoughts of you in syndication,
Just like the time I met Joan Jett,
At a Grammy party on a Saturday night,
After you and me had a big fight...
There's a picture of a boy somewhere that fits your empty frame....
I tried switching the station,
But the song remains the same.
It came to me, think they call it an epiphany...(That line was lame)
[Chorus:]
All I ever wanted was a little extra ordinary,
Somewhat documented and depicted in this book of memories.
That's as empty as a broken glass, Or a gas tank in my car.
If you can hear me now,
Come out, come out, wherever you are...
[Bridge]
Are you still at home?
Or did you go to Rome?
I swear I think I saw you on some Italian movie,
Showing on the plane,
I couldn't read your name..
Subtitles don't work on the credits,
Man that's a shame..
It's a shame now, me and you..
No one to blame but, you..
[Chorus:]
All I ever wanted was a little extra ordinary,
Somewhat documented and depicted in this book of memories.
All I ever wanted was a little extra ordinary,
Somewhat documented and depicted in this book of memories.
If you can hear me now(If you can hear him now),
If you can hear me now,
Come out, come out, wherever you are...
Wherever you are....
I think they call it an Epiphany...
The words in red are the lyrics I like and feel to in the song. The words in green I find are really interesting lyrics. "There's a picture of a boy/girl somewhere that fits this/your empty frame..". The words that are bolded and italic are the lyrics that I feel are related to my life. Right now.
