This song speaks to me. Tell me what you think…(bonus if you can tell me the name/artist of the song). After a few comments, we’ll discuss. – eli
Transport, motorways and tramlines,
starting and then stopping,
taking off and landing,
the emptiest of feelings,
disappointed people, clinging on to bottles,
and when it comes it’s so, so, disappointing.
Let down and hanging around,
crushed like a bug in the ground.
Let down and hanging around.
Shell smashed, juices flowing
wings twitch, legs are going,
don’t get sentimental,
it always ends up drivel.
One day, I am gonna grow wings,
a chemical reaction,
hysterical and useless
hysterical and
let down and hanging around,
crushed like a bug in the ground.
Let down and hanging around.
Let down,
Let down,
Let down.
You know, you know where you are with,
you know where you are with,
floor collapsing, falling, bouncing back
and one day, I am gonna grow wings,
a chemical reaction, [You know where you are,]
hysterical and useless [you know where you are,]
hysterical and [you know where you are,]
let down and hanging around,
crushed like a bug in the ground.
Let down and hanging around.

The song is Let Down, the artist is Radiohead, the album is OK Computer. Actually I didn’t know the name or the group or the album but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last year. I also have an internet connection that lets me surf the world wide web for information. It’s real cool. You should try it out some time.
Comment by Ancil Ray January 16, 2006 @ 8:25 pmThe song seemed pretty depressing to me, hopeless even, until you pointed out the line about “growing wings”. That sounds like life after death to me and I’m really into that. Thanks for the site. I kind of like the name “Lower Room” too. You know “Upper Room” Lower Room and all that.
By the way there’s something wrong with the clock on this sie if it thinks I left my comment at 8:25 PM. I’m ometimes in bed by that time. I posted it at 3:25 PM.
