Behold! A new icon! A new default icon, even, because it complements the layout colors quite nicely and it just...it's Hakkai. And ivy - I love ivy. And a beautiful pic. And very spring-summery, what with the implied-sunlight and the greenery, which is whole other levels of lovely as winter continues to cling stubbornly outside my window. Thank you, Kiro!!
Also. With Suncoasts and Sam Goodys closing left and right up here, there are all kinds ofirresistible clearance/closeout sales going on, and I've filled a couple holes in my CD collection. One of them being my own legally-bought-and-paid-for copy of Depeche Mode's 'Playing the Angel'. In re-acquainting myself with its charms, the lyrics to 'Damaged People' caught my ear again and reminded me of thoughts I'd had the first time I heard it. Mostly that it's a very apt sort of theme for any of the Saiyuki boys, and somehow (in my mindset today at least) to Gojyo and Hakkai in particular. Uhm. Here.
We're damaged people
Drawn together
By subtleties that we are not aware of
Disturbed souls
Playing out forever
These games that we once thought we would be scared of
When you're in my arms
The world makes sense
There is no pretence
And you're crying
When you're by my side
There is no defence
I forget to sense
I'm dying
We're damaged people
Praying for something
That doesn't come from somewhere deep inside us
Depraved souls
Trusting in the one thing
The one thing that this life has not denied us
When I feel the warmth
Of your very soul
I forget I'm cold
And crying
When your lips touch mine
And I lose control
I forget I'm old
And dying
For the curious, although the song itself does not entirely 'wow' me. It's still a rather pleasant listen.
