Re: What are you listening to now?

"Digital Ghost"-Tori Amos
American Doll Posse

Quote:
It started as a joke
Just one of my lucks to see
If somehow I could reach you
So I swam onto your shores
Through an open window
Only to find you all alone
Curled up with machines
Now it seems you're slipping
Out of the land of the living

Just take a closer look
Take a closer look
At what it is that's really haunting you
I have to trust you
Not this digital ghost
Look I fear there's only so much time
'Cause the you I knew is fading away

Hands
Lay them on my keys
Let me play you again
I am not immune to your net
Find me there and yet
I won't go even if in
Your heart only beats 1's and 0's
Switch you on my friend
Pull you from that rip current
Only you can fight against these

Take a closer look
Just take a closer look
At what it is that's really haunting you
I hear to trust you
Not this digital ghost
Well I fear there's only so much time
Cause the you I knew is fading away
Fading
Fading
Fading away
Every time I listen to this song, especially the lines "curled up with machines" and "Your heart only beats 1's and 0's", I can't help but think of Serial Experiments Lain. The whole album is quite good, but this songs like this one and "Girl Disappearing" in particular help me get over the musical massacre that was The Beekeeper.
