So, I'd been listening to The Script's Six Degrees of Separation a lot.

I'm not highly sensitive (quite the contradictory actually lol)

Yes blue skies are a good sign if you plan on going for a hike, fluffy clouds, maybe not, oh really that wisp of cloud with a slightly red tinge in the far distance conjures up feelings of melancholy in you, does it remind you of that painting by that great Frenchman uh huh, if you're about to cry over some cloud, can we do it in Starbucks where it's air-conditioned??

JK.

But really, I wish I could be more appreciative over artwork (I will never spend on pieces with 5 digit price tags nopes I'm getting Instagram posts blown up along with captions and likes) and music (300 times on replay on Spotify and I wouldn't be able to identify the song or artist on the radio a few hours later)

(I think haikus are adorable though does that count)

(is it even legal to describe haikus as adorable?)

Anyway, had this particular song in my phone since I last synced it with iTunes (year 2013) and it never left a lasting impression until the past week.

Tone down the desperation here by a few degrees and maybe it's slightly relatable.

I think the word 'desperation' comes up at least 8 times here and I bet it's only because it rhymes with separation.  *moment of clarity

We all know what The Scripts are getting at, the broken-hearted, slowly but surely dying a painful heartbreak.

I don't know, if I were 17 again I'd roll my eyes and scorn and throw up a bit.

Maybe now, I have the tiniest bit of respect to not do so.

So I wrote this post because I spent quite a bit of my time analysing the lyrics to a song instead of articles related to my Criminal Law assignment.


if my assignment group mates happen to stumble upon this post I'm struggling 

JK.

Getting there.
