How weird. Some time back, I recall writing an ilog about how he was quicksand. He pulled me in, coated me and then well, sort of killed the life gently.

And today, I carefully opened the new Incubus album, slid the CD in and the opening track hit home. I didn't even look at the song listing..just put the CD on and left the sleeve discovery for later.

But the lyrics to the first song go something like this:

"Okay… now the monster is awake.
It won’t rest until there’s nothing left.
Maybe ever and anon
I forget about the pain.
Someone bending light comes along
And flowers lean towards the sun.
Some people fall in love & touch the sky
Some people fall in love & find quicksand.
I hover somewhere in between… I swear…
I can’t make up my mind."

The song's called Quicksand. Weird. It connects to what I was saying back then. Little relief moments..*shrug* when I hear someone else thinking the same thing..makes me think that maybe I'm not crazy after all.
