of boomerangs and nervous breakdowns

Music: Boomerang, MAE

Sometimes I feel sad for no reason at all. Or for reasons that are completely stupid and childish.

This is one of those times.

Listening to MAE's Boomerang is weird, given the circumstances.

But now that I'm done listening to it, I'm sort of, unexpectedly, happier. Or at least less sad.

I think I'm heading for a nervous breakdown.

I'm not supposed to miss you, 'cause you're not coming back.
And I wish I never kissed you, so what do you think of that?
What did I get myself into?
In the back of my mind there will always be the catch and throw away.
But this moment's got me thinking I could reach you.
And I'm waking up alone and echo the song sung yesterday and begging you to come back home.

'Cause you're my boomerang.
My repititous twist of fate.
But unexpectedly this time you don't come back to me.
Still you go on and on for someone else.

This back and forth gets me going around and round.
And I'm so worn out and dizzy while you knock the good ones down.
Now I want to know the truth--do you even miss me?
'Cause in the back of my mind I could always feel the push and pull away.
And now I can see that you were leaving me.

When you're my boomerang and I tried so hard to make you stay.
Without a doubt I see this time you won't come back to me.
So fly, fly, fly like a bird in the atmosphere.
Glide, glide, let the breeze you're feeling take you there.
Fly away from me.

In the back of my mind there'll always be the catch and throw away.
But this time I'll let it fly and not try to reach you.
Because getting up alone will help me grow my own pair of wings and the time has come for me to fly.

Oh boomerang, I'm down to let you go, 'cause you're my boomerang.
And the fun we had was all in vain.
But unexpectedly this time you won't come back to me.
Still you go on and on for someone, go on and on for someone else.

Fly, Fly, Fly like a bird in the atmosphere.
Glide, glide let the breeze you're feeling take you there.
Ride, ride on the wind the gets you out of here.
Fly away from me.
