“Most People”
I guess I’m in one of those moods lately. I’m really listening intently to certain songs, hearing the words and being struck by them.
“If she listens very carefully
To a room of conversation
She can feel the planet orbiting through space
She hears pieces of arguments
Beginnings of jokes
And the odd lines of a song she cannot place
And it all makes up an image
That resists interpretation
Which is lately how she likes to see herself
How she does not believe in accidents
Doesn’t disagree out loud
And falls in love with every man she cannot help”
