caroline you're unrefined
like fake wood floors and cheap boxed wine
you are the buy one get one kind
oh caroline the unrefined

and caroline you're careless too
your friends will fret the things you do
like getting no sleep and meals too few
oh caroline the careless too

caroline you were designed
your life was carefully aligned
an axis: a path you'll one day find
oh caroline who was designed

catching a song

so there's this song that i fell in love with the second i heard it
and ever since i heard it, i just want to hear it again
radio plays are few and far between
and each listen just makes me want to get ahold of this song
make it ever-accessible
at my fingertips
there to enjoy whenever i please
because this song makes me feel
like me
and i sing along to it without shame

but the song's just not for sale
and even if it was
it would be selling at a price i don't feel like paying right now
so i just have to wait
till the song comes out on itunes
and till i feel ready to give up that last 1.09 itunes credit i have

none of this is true

but it's a pretty good analogy for what is true right now
