This is me, on the bandwagon
Well, everybody else is doing the lyric thing... I chose Tori Amos, not so much because I listen to her all the time now, but because her lyrics hit me hard at a time that I really started learning who I am.
1. Are you male or female?
She's been everybody else's girl maybe one day she'll be her own.
--"Girl"
2. How do people feel about you?
I've got your mind I said
She said I've your voice
I said you don't need my voice girl
You have your own
But you never thought it was enough of
--"Bells for Her"
3. How do you feel about yourself?
And if I die today I'll be the HAPPY Phantom
And I'll go chasin' the nuns out in the yard
And I'll run naked through the streets without my mask on
And I will never need umbrellas in the rain
I'll wake up in strawberry fields every day
And the atrocities of school I can forgive
The HAPPY phantom has no right to bitch
--"Happy Phantom"
4. Describe your love interest?
If you know me so well then tell me which hand I use
--"Yes, Anastasia"
Crude, perhaps, but it made me laugh. Slightly less flippantly:
I could just pretend that you love me
The night would lose all sense of fear
But why do I need you to love me
When you can't hold what I hold dear
--"Leather"
5. What would you be rather doing?
Gonna lay down gonna lay down
--"Icicle"
6. Describe where you live.
you don't need a space ship
they don't know you've already lived
on the other side of the galaxy
--Black Dove
7. Describe how you live?
So you found a girl who thinks really Deep Thoughts
What's so amazing about really Deep Thoughts
--"Silent All These Years"
8. Do you believe in god?
You make pretty daisies pretty daisies love
I gotta find what you're doing about things here
A few witches burning gets a little toasty here
I gotta find why you always go when the wind blows
Tell me you're crazy maybe then I'll understand
--"God"
9. Share a few words of wisdom:
ran into the Henchman who severed
Anne Boleyn
he did it right quickly a merciful man
she said 1+1 is 2
but Henry said that it was 3
so it was
here I am
--"Talula"
