i've never seen a better disguised demon in angelic form.
oblivious;
breathing in pain,
lashing out silently.

3 little birds sat chirping in a tree
"chip chip chip" but i can't hear thee
prance around the leaves and dance around the bee
"chip chip chip" dump an axe on me

Sixpence None the Richer - Still Burning

you are still burning
the flame that is turning
my smoldering ash into a bird

so stay close my brother
I couldn't stand the loss
you are the bridge of action
I need you to help me cross
I need you to help me

Chorus:
so when you break
my arms I'll take hold of you
I know your hearts a hand that takes hold of me

my hand that is breaking
is the hand that is making
all the dead things in me grow
a gift of a holy loss
this burning at the dross

so when you break
my arms I'll take hold of you
I know your hearts a hand that takes hold of me

Bridge:
why do you set out to break the one thing
the one thing that I have to give
its hard to believe that I could
that I should begin again
but I know you heart is a hand

so when I break
your arms you'll take hold of me
you know my hearts a hand that takes hold of you
so when you break
my arms I'll take hold of you
I know your hearts a hand that takes hold of me
so when you break
my arms I'll take hold of you
I know your hearts a hand that takes hold of me

mere exposure effect
-when shown something positive or neutral, the more you get exposed to that something, the more positive feelings you have towards it.
i.e. +ve / 0 >>>> ++++++ve
-when shown something negative, the more you get exposed to that something, the more negative feelings you have towards it.
i.e. -ve >>>>> -----ve

where >>>> = no. of exposures.

hence, when you are feeling depressed, the more you keep to yourself and think ab0ut how depressed you are, the more depressed you get.
that is how people fall into slumps.

so if you're happy and the more you think about it, the more you smile foolishly to yourself.
