Unwell

Again. Gastrointestinal system and one endocrine system went a little haywire.

Outside, the birds talk to one another - in different languages and tunes. It's a pandemonium... but quite a lovely one, I think.

Whenever I think of what Ben said the other day, I crack up - "If global warming continues, and birds go extinct, there will be job opportunities for people to stand outside windows and imitate bird sounds..." Haha.

Today, Matchbox 20's song 'Unwell' plays in my head. It reminds me of a friend, Caleb, somehow :) ~ because he once sent me a recording of himself singing and playing this song on the piano... That was like about 2 years ago?

Gosh, this song really brings back many memories... of the Taiwan trip and meeting up with Caleb in Taipei.

All day
Staring at the ceiling

Making friends with shadows on my wall
All night
Hearing voices telling me
That I should get some sleep
Because tomorrow might be good for something

Hold on

I'm feeling like I'm headed for
a
Breakdown
I don't know why


I'm not crazy,
I'm just a little unwell

I know, right now you can't tell

But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me

I'm not crazy,
I'm just a little impaired
I know,
right now you don't care

But soon enough you're gonna think of me

And how I used to be

Me

Talking to myself in public
Dodging glances on the train
I know

I know they've all been talking 'bout me

I can hear them whisper
And it makes me think there must be something wrong
With me


Out of all the hours thinking
Somehow I've lost my mind

I'm not crazy,
I'm just a little unwell

I know, right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired

I know right now you don't care

But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be


I been talking in my sleep

Pretty soon they'll come to get me
Yeah, they're taking me away

I'm not crazy,
I'm just a little unwell
I know,
right now you can't tell

But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see

A different side of me
I'm not crazy
I'm just a little impaired

I know, right now you don't care

But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be

Hey, how I used to be

How I used to be, yeah
Well I'm just a little unwell
How I used to be
How I used to be
