I found myself listening to lots of music on the long bus rides from home to North Campus. One particular song, interestingly, described my love life. It is "I'm a Believer" by the Monkees. Yes, you have all listened to it, and yeah you probably can relate to the lyrics yourself. Despite your experiences in love and how it relates to this song, I am going to relate my love life to the lyrics of this song. After all, it is my blog...
So let's begin:
I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me.
Love was out to get me
That's the way it seemed.
Disappointment haunted all my dreams.
I started out thinking this, as I was denied, early on, by several girls. I would think love was never for me, but then again I was a little teenager! Even in my freshman year of college, I had these thoughts! I was disappointed quite a bit. Well now I am not phased as much by simple crushes. I just ignore them, I guess. Which leads to this:
I thought love was more or less a given thing,
Seems the more I gave the less I got.
What's the use in tryin?
All you get is pain.
When I needed sunshine I got rain.
All of this is probably explained in your love life because I am pretty sure it happened to you. It happens to me. I now feel like trying one bit would just give me more pain, you know? I mean every single time I want sunshine, I get disappointment and it pours on me! So I maybe if I pass this heartbreak pain, I will become a believer when I see her face, whoever she is. Am I right? Or is love out to get me again?
