Meh?

I find that the things I'm most attracted to in life are things I either don't have or don't understand. I don't think this is all that unusual, except maybe for the things I'm drawn to.

For example, I LOVE music, but don't have any talent when it comes to singing, or playing an instrument, or heck, even keeping beat. I'm not just being modest either.. I was literally born without any of that ability (DAD).

Also? Beards. Lurve me some beard. I'm not sure I actually want to grow one myself (although I AM noticing more fuzz on my lip as 30 draws nearer), I just find them fascinating.

Tattoos. Yeah, I've got some, but not nearly as many as I'd probably have if I didn't have to worry about staying employed. Ergo - something I don't have.

But back to my point. When I find a song or a band I love, I love them for life. Their music never gets old, their songs never cease to bring emotion out in me, and I'll always remember every word to every song. Which brings me to the point of this post. I have found something I don't have (musical ability) and something I don't understand (the song "Jars" by Chevelle (who I will always, always love)). Subsequently, I have become a woman obsessed. I'm up to 78 plays on my Itunes library at work alone. I've posted the lyrics below for you to sort through. The best I can figure by reading and listening and searching online is that they're kind of making fun of environmentalists by saying everyone should put a little earth in some jars to save for later. And if I'm right, quite frankly, it makes me love them even more.

Hold onto chance
Lest we bleed ourselves
Save for the pets
They're the loneliest

Put into jars
We'll save this earth
Put into jars
We'll save this earth

We can't both become the same pawn that's made to fall
Oil that tastes like blood stole the summer scent
From me to you you're stabbing me through you
You're stabbing you through him and betting most of this world
We'll add enough of the world

Steal from yourselves
It never felt so good
And feed from their hands
Confuse the opposites

Put into jars
We'll save this earth
Put into jars
Keep safe this earth

(CHORUS)

Feeling manic for a day
Depends on the trends
Depends on the surface
If the sun never sets

(CHORUS)

Is the main thing you'll shout
Till the bitter end into jars
