♪♫Kimya Dawson: My Idol♫♪

Posted on Oct 14th, 2008 by SecretDreamer : My Secret Dreams SecretDreamer
Do you have an idol?  A person that you look up to, you admire their decisions and their achievements.  For me, that would be Kimya Dawson.

Her songs remind of what is important to me, even the goofy ones.  They help me remember that life is all reletive, and that to be happy, you should get enough laughter.  My favorite song of her's is "I Like Giants".

I Like Giants Lyrics


When I go for a drive I like to pull off to the side
Of the road, turn out the lights, get out and look up at the sky
And I do this to remind me that I'm really, really tiny
In the grand scheme of things and sometimes this terrifies me

But it's only really scary cause it makes me feel serene
In a way I never thought I'd be because I've never been
So grounded, and so humbled, and so one with everything
I am grounded, I am humbled, I am one with everything

Rock and roll is fun but if you ever hear someone
Say you are huge, look at the moon, look at the stars, look at the sun
Look at the ocean and the desert and the mountains and the sky
Say I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye
I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye

When I saw Geneviève I really liked it when she said
What she said about the giant and the lemmings on the cliff
She said 'I like giants
Especially girl giants
Cause all girls feel too big sometimes
Regardless of their size'

When I go for a drive I like to pull off to the side
Of the road and run and jump into the ocean in my clothes
*I'm smaller than a poppyseed inside a great big bowl
And the ocean is a giant that can swallow me whole

So I swim for all salvation and I swim to save my soul
But my soul is just a whisper trapped inside a tornado
So I flip to my back and I float and I sing
I am grounded, I am humbled, I am one with everything
I am grounded, I am humbled, I am one with everything

So I talked to Geneviève and almost cried when she said
That the giant on the cliff wished that she was dead
And the lemmings on the cliff wished that they were dead
So the giant told the lemmings why they ought to live instead

When she thought up all those reasons that they ought to live instead
It made her reconsider all the sad thoughts in her head
So thank you Geneviève, cause you take what is in your head
And you make things that are so beautiful and share them with your friends

We all become important when we realize our goal
Should be to figure out our role within the context of the whole
And yeah, rock and roll is fun, but if you ever hear someone
Say you are huge, look at the moon, look at the stars, look at the sun
Look at the ocean and the desert and the mountains and the sky

Say I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye
I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye
I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye
And I don't wanna make her cry
Cause I like giants

End of Lyrics


If you would like to hear the song, check out the video I put on this entry.  I cry sometimes when I hear her songs, but for me, crying helps calm me down.  It helps me feel better and to experiance what I need to experiance at that time.

I Like Giants Cover by Kimya Dawson


Thank you for reading this!  I look forward to hearing what you have to say on the subject.

If I Ruled The World

Posted on Oct 10th, 2008 by SecretDreamer : My Secret Dreams SecretDreamer
If I ruled the world
Peace would be everywhere.
And the sun would shine
In the sky, when we needed it

But rain would fall
When the earth was cracked.
And flowers would grow
For everyone
To stop and smell
Put down their sack.

And If I ruled the world,
no one would know hunger or pain
