In need of translation; hippie speak to english

and i build each one of my songs out of glass so you could see me inside them, i suppose; or you could just leave the image of me in the background i guess and watch your own reflection superimposed



any ideas?

I have an idea. Hippies are not people. Do not take anything they say or do seriously. They are lower forms of life and should by extention be exterminated from this planet. They're worthless wastes of space who like to use nonsensical garbage like that to make themselves feel smart. Hippies can suck me off.

What she means

Is that you could look at the song two ways. One is to think of her when you're listening to the song, or if you aren't interested in her, you put her in the background and see yourself in those songs.

My guess...

I don't think it actually has anything to do with a song. I think it's just a way of questioning who you care more about...this person or yourself. Hippies suck.

She writes her songs so that you can see/understand her heart within the lyrics, If not, you can turn your back and have her image behind you and look foward as your shadows lay over her image. That's what I think.

Good thoughts people... makes sense now that I think about it (I never did do well in reading comp). I got another one for ya;

acceptance and resignation hold hands
while denial flirts with desperation
it's kind of comforting to know
exactly where i stand
when i close my eyes
slipping away deliberatly
smiling cause its so unexpected

Dude...Wren...whoever wrote this is first off a shitty poet/songwriter. Seriously...that's just really lame. Secondly she (I'm assuming it's a she) seems to be very insecure. Both of those things you posted seem like they're searching for some validation. Run away my friend. Run far, far away. Hippies fucking suck.

round 3 perhaps?


and i can see you watching me
as if there's a pane of glass between us
or maybe its just an image of
what we've defined reality to be
or maybe you are a shadow of what i like to dream
when i'm asleep
and someday i'll tell you this
sometime when i'm not so weak

How about, instead of overthinking the illogical (i.e. hippiespeak), you beat this girl about the head and face for being such a dumbass? Seriously man...anybody who writes dribble like that isn't worth the time of examination. Fuck hippies (again).
