well, the album THE WALL by pink floyd is my all time favorite. On there is a song called comfortably numb, which on the album (which is more like an opera vs. a series of different, unrelated songs) is a result of his insanity combined with his drug use/abuse and raising up.
So, anyway, this song, in the chorus, says...
'your lips move, but I can't hear what you're saying'
and I love it so much because it puts me in mind of how my own personal sanity/past/present/ plus mood disorder can skew my world. How some big good thing gets swallowed up by the everyday bad things. Or, how some 'normals' simply, no matter what, can't seem to relate to any mood save their own. I told my niece recently, telling a depressed person to cheer up is like telling someone with the flu to stop feeling achy, just feel better.
Anyhow, all this started because of lips moving and that's my story and I'm stickin to it. And, I didn't read all the other posts because I'm on the run, just a quick visit, and y'all are stuck with my ramblings. You all deserve better, but there it is.
