Stun Gun Lullaby

Well, after a long bout of combing through my personal music library, I think I've figured out my theme song. My theme song, the song that best defines me as a person, (That I can think of at the moment.) is the song Reckless Serenade, by the Arctic Monkeys. Now, this song isn't actually a description of me. Rather, it's a description of a woman, more specifically, it's about a boy, who's fallen so in love with a girl, that he's lost his senses, his sense of caution, his ability to reason, and see consequences to his actions. In reality, Reckless Serenade describes a self-destructive kind of love that, deep down, everyone yearns for. And yet, despite this song having very little to do with me directly, I've found that it also, in a way, describes me perfectly. As I've only recently come to conclude, I am a highly senseless person. All the time, I do things that are unhealthy, unintelligent, unsafe, and irresponsible, for no reason other than I enjoy it at the time. This explains a great number of aspects of my life, such as my marks, my weight, and a number of people's opinions of me. (You know who you are.) But, that's just how I am. I try to "live in the moment." I know that's a terrible cliché, but clichés are as such for a reason, are they not? Forethought is not my forte, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

"I've been trying to figure out exactly what it is I need;
 Call up to listen to the voice of reason, 
 And got the answering machine."
