Gone

I just realized this... Before coming here (US), I would listen to this song, thinking how it expressed exactly my feelings at the time. How I needed to get away from my city so bad and all that jazz.
Now I listen to it again, and It makes A LOT more sense being here, wanting to go back home. And It seems even stupid that being home I would feel that way.
To sum up, I needed to go away from home, and what was making me feel that way has been solved by being here: I've realized how much I have there that I didn't really appreciate.
Bonus: A vid I made for it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csmGitsJzds

For me "Gone" is is first of all an escape from people and what they want me to be. I don't mind cities...

For me, listening to song, "gone" is not another geographical location. It is a mindset I struggle to shed. I try and try and sometimes I feel like I'll get it right this time. This time I'm gone. The taillights fading are on the "vehicle" I use to transport these negative lifestyles away in. No one thinks to witness, but they will someday. Eventually, I will succeed and it will be apparent to those in my life. The lights of this city are those that shine over my undesirable ways. They only look good when I'm moving to fast to focus on them. What I need to leave behind are aspects of myself. This time I'm gone.
I'm tired of resolutions. Maybe it's time for a New Year's REVOLUTION!
