Much of the extra lyrics I've included came about from my attempt to relate the first session Professor Una Chung's lecture class, to my life. I initially took the class in order to work through a deep personal question in my life; a motive which, I've noticed, slightly shifted as the semester, and the album progressed. I believe I have become more open to considering information not by first jumping to conclude how it may relate to me, superficially speaking, but as how it may help me to better perceive life, and the interactions I may have with other bodies throughout it. This section of lyrics I ended up presenting with audio reflect the notion of one's spirit- the distant self- as one which we must learn to foster a relationship with. It also speaks to my trepidation regarding other aspects of my own life, from academia to my love-life.
lyrics
"the more I try
the less I know
become of me
where ought I to go
two of us
it's you and me
here stranger and friend
though through it all I cannot see
How will we arrive our inevitable ending
amour de soi meme
amour de soi meme
nous sommes"
----- Continued Cut lyrics-------
"dragged through in pursuit of my my wandering soul
and the quest for self examination
these words are not my own
these thoughts into language they are not my own
My heart, my head for you- this is not my own
I can not adequately relate it
You sure can sense but you can't know it
amour de soi meme
amour de soi meme
Your love is yours
your love is me
Loving you is all and it's all just to be
But you arouse my tips and down far deep
it's nothing but to burst from me
now I am alone in an attempt to sleep
you are the pleasant thoughts
you are my crippled feet
amour de soi meme
amour de soi meme
Your love is yours
your love is me
Loving you is all and it's all just to be
we've tried for that our best to make
love to share love to take
love to live
what when we are nothing that's left to give
Broken the purest the truest by your taste
cast out by presence, the subject of vice
The reality of you crushes my superstition and faith
My dreams, they can wait but not with a tole on my present self
I live in the future I live in past else"
