I listen to A LOT of Depeche Mode. If there was a USRDA of Depeche Mode, I'm pretty sure I've surpassed it. If Depeche Mode was heroin, I'd be dead by now. Get the picture? Anyway....
I was (GASP!) listening to Depeche Mode just a few minutes ago and the words to one of the songs grabbed me a little. Why more today than any other time? Because I've gone through something I never thought I'd have to go through...again: My 'best friend' has 'let me down'. I've changed the 'sex' of the friend from HE to SHE to fit my particular situation.
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
I hope she never lets me down again
She knows where she's taking me
Taking me where I want to be
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
We're flying high
We're watching the world pass us by
Never want to come down
Never want to put my feet back down
On the ground
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
I hope she never lets me down again
Promises me I'm as safe as houses
As long as I remember who's wearing the trousers
I hope she never lets me down again
We're flying high
We're watching the world pass us by
Never want to come down
Never want to put my feet back down
On the ground
Never let me down, never let me down
Never let me down, never let me down
(See the stars they're shining bright
Everything's alright tonight)
I don't know if it's ever gonna be 'alright' again.
