I love this song...
It's... perfect...
You can make that out just from the opening itself...
Moth... by Audioslave.
Thought I was different, it seems I'm just the same
As again I put my hand over the flame...
Explains everythin you ever felt but couldn't put in words...
Every single time, you think that this time, it'll be different...
This time, you won't fall...
that you won't let the same thing happen ever again...
but it always does...
Thought I was smarter as I flew into the sun
...
I don't fly around your fire anymore...
It's what you keep tellin yourself... but no matter how many times you burn, and how many times you fall, you always crawl back to the light...
Over and over...
Like a dying moth...
I love the heat, I love the things that I forgot
I love the strings that tie me down and cut me off
And it's true...
You really do...
Just like dreams you can't remember...
no matter the pain they cause...
you love them, because you know they mean that there IS an answer...
and it's not just the darkness out there...
When did the flame burn so high and get so hot...
And how didn't you notice?
The flames creeping higher and higher...
Maybe because that also meant it was getting so much brighter...
and sometimes,... chasing away the dark is worth getting burned...
Why do you stay?
Every time...
Why?
You know what happens when you get too close to the flames...
when you stay too long...
You know exactly what happens...
and yet you stay...
Why?
I wouldn't really know...
but in the end... I guess... isn't it better to burn brightly for a while than fade away slowly into the cold night?
Maybe...
just maybe...
that's why...
