Almost as if they had been written for/to/about/because of you?
It's kind of eerie.
I know it can be explained as synchronicity (great word, took me three tries to spell it correctly, lol) but all the same, the feeling that someone put your thoughts, your feelings into words in a way you couldn't manage, yourself, is a strange, almost flattering feeling.
There's a track on an album I've owned since before I care to remember that still resonates with me in that way.
Maybe it's that there's nothing new under the Sun, that all the words have already been written and all we're doing is wandering, lost, until we find them and they give our lives meaning.
Or maybe I'm one of those unimaginative, unauthentic, lazy people who prefers to use other people's words.
The final cut from the album The Final Cut by Pink Floyd. I still feel the powerful surge of emotion contained, perhaps released, by those lyrics,and the incredible music penned by Roger Waters. I think I got the album when I was about 16, you know, those angsty teenage years, lol. It still speaks volumes to me, even after all this time.
Don't go hunting it down, it's probably not going to mean a lot to you.
