I'm wide awake and so alive
Ringing like a bell
Tell me this is paradise
And not someplace I fell
'Cause I keep on fallin' down
I wanna feel the car crash
I wanna feel the capsize
I wanna feel the bomb drop, the earth stop
'Til I'm satisfied
I wanna feel the car crash
'Cause I'm dyin' on the inside
I wanna let go and know
That I'll be alright, alright
Just push me 'til I have to fly
I've shed my skin, my scars
Take me deep out past the lights
Nothing dims these stars
Nothing dims these stars
I wanna feel the car crash
I wanna feel the capsize
I wanna feel the bomb drop, the earth stop
'Til I'm satisfiedI wanna feel the car crash
'Cause I'm dyin' on the inside
I wanna let go and know
That I'll be alright, alright
So right
It's all wrong
I'm wide awake and so alive
I wanna feel the car crash
I wanna feel the capsize
I wanna feel the bomb drop, the earth stop
'Til I'm satisfied
I wanna feel the car crash
'Cause I'm dyin' on the inside
I wanna let go and know
That I'll be alright, alright
They're not your typical feel-good lyrics. Why are they appealing? Because we can feel numb and used to the way things are/tend to be? Because we want something out of the norm to happen? Just to give us variety? So we can have something to put on our blogs? Or do you not find them appealing?

I think I'd have to hear it to know how I felt about it.
Like that song that goes,
"I believe the world is burning to the ground,
something, something but we're gunna find out -
let's see how far we've come
let's see how far we've come"
I don't get it, at all, but I enjoy hearing it play.
If I just read the words...nothing.
Listen to it through the link! (I'm used to a slower acoustic version, but this one's not bad either.)
I agree. Sometimes monotony drives me mad!
