I <3 This Song

It's called "Kaye," and it's by the band Jupiter Sunrise [see link on the right]. I have to admit, the initial attraction was simply that the title is my name... But still, I love it. This song, along with "This Beauty" by the same band, are at the top of my playlist right now.

What's that? You want to see the lyrics? Aw shucks, how did I know?

I can provide:

"Kaye"
Kaye, are you even real?
Do you think that maybe we could be lovers once in a while?
Say something I can feel
I am never here and it's impossible to heal

Go ahead and understand me, underneath that killer blue sky
Go ahead and understand me please

Kaye, are you even real?
Do you think we'll ever figure it out, I'm running out of hope
Say anything you feel
Maybe you can do it for the both of us and I'll untie the rope

Kaye, out there in the world I am full of their hate, their crime
In here it's like we can be pure of heart
Kaye, out there in the world I am left for dead don't help me
In here we are both light and pure of heart

It's hard enough to breathe right here
Let alone be right here, let alone here you say, "love"
It's hard enough trying to be strong right now
I try to be wrong right now
I try to be anything that doesn't drive her away

Kaye, are you even real?
Do you think that maybe we could just stay here?

"This Beauty"
When your words come too easily for me
And this paint goes on too thinly to peel away
I will find a silver lining sometime
Blur my vision, and I'll be fine
And I'll be fine...

When your words burn forever in my mind
And those greens and those blues seem too perfect to be true
I will light a fire every time I think to myself, I will be fine
I will be fine

Burn the pages of the magazines
I hate the way they look at me
With every smile and every laugh
There's something I will always lack
And maybe, just maybe
And imprefected me will not be seen

But yes, I'll go on, yes, I will be
And I'll be strong, fortunately
This beauty's not clear to me, to me...

And maybe, just maybe, this beauty will be clearer to me.
