RE: Steemit Open Mic Week 126 - Lie To Me (I Need A Friend) - Original Song

[trevorpetrie]

Hi @theironfelix, thank you so much for taking the time to listen to my song and for such an in depth analysis. One of the things I really love about songs is how the same words and music can have such wildly different meaning from one person to the next.

Your reply prompted me to spend a great deal of time thinking over exactly what I was thinking when I wrote this track and for me the song is about my tendency to over-analyze life and events. The "friend" for me is possibly even a better version of myself who can look past the short term hurdles and retain focus on the end goal. That said, @meno summed it up beautifully when he said "we've all felt that need to give the steering wheel to someone and finally find happiness".

Again, thank you, I truly appreciate the feedback.

Cheers,
Trevor

Welcome for the comment! ~^^~

We all are chains of signifiers, so we all react to different signifiers one way, shape or form. So I appreciate that lil’ gesture being brougt up.

Welcome again and cheers!~ Welcome to the philosophizing club, where we might jump to rabbit holes but at least will tell people to not do that and jump down other ones. But yes, I was getting that vibe but I didn’t have the time to expand the comment for that possibiliry and assumed yah were making that the underlying principle. Glad to know it eitherway. But indeed, what @meno said, does possess a remarkable trope amongst a fair number of humans.

Thank you! I look forward to more philosophizing adventures. I do have a tendency to explore rabbit holes so good to know I’m in the right place ;) Cheers!
