aimee mann's save me

This song captured my mood, what should have been the ending to yesterday’s encounters. And then it also brought light on one other thing that I think is what is possibly happening in my life. Melancholy is anyone’s best friend. Though it is unhealthy, it brings something new to your existence. From up, down you go. You may shun company. It’s that sort of newness I’m talking about. And it makes you think. And that despite and in spite of all the things that need to be done, you know that you don’t have time to think. But then here I am typing away my thoughts, thinking…

From listening to the song, I thought of something to do about one current situation. Something I haven’t as yet narrated in this space. I’m thinking, maybe, it’ll be something for me to gain inspiration from. Anyway, here’s the song. It’s Save Me by Aimee Mann.


You look like a perfect fit
For a girl in need of a tourniquet

But can you save me
Come on and save me
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone

'Cause I can tell
You know what it's like
The long farewell of the hunger strike

But can you save me
Come on and save me
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone

You struck me dumb like radium
Like Peter Pan or Superman

You will come to save me
C'mon and save me
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
'Cept the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
But the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone

C'mon and save me
Why don't you save me
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone

Except the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
Except the freaks who could never love anyone
