I love the quote in your signature
"I know the pieces fit because I watched them fall away."

Is that yours, or a lyric from a song? Just curious. I'd like to "use" it in a paper I'm writing (and was going to say "this was said by someone suffering DP" but if it's like some famous lyric I would look like an idiot, lol)

thanks,
Janine

TOOL - SCHISM

I know the pieces fit cuz I watched them fall away
Mildewed and smoldering, fundamental differing,
Pure intention juxtaposed will set two lovers souls in motion
Disintegrating as it goes testing our communication
The light that fueled our fire then has burned a hole between us so
We cannot see to reach an end crippling our communication.

I know the pieces fit cuz I watched them tumble down
No fault, none to blame it doesn?t mean I don?t desire to
Point the finger, blame the other, watch the temple topple over.
To bring the pieces back together, rediscover communication.

The poetry that comes from the squaring off between,
And the circling is worth it.
Finding beauty in the dissonance.

There was a time that the pieces fit, but I watched them fall away.
Mildewed and smoldering, strangled by our coveting
I?ve done the the math enough to know the dangers of a second guessing
Doomed to crumble unless we grow, and strengthen our communication

Cold silence has a tendency to atrophy any sense of compassion

Between supposed lovers
Between supposed lovers.

And I know the pieces fit.

One of my all time favourite songs (Tool = my fav band too). I will upload the track and post in this thread when I get home.

A Perfect Circle is the same dude right?

I love that song "Passive". Can't get enough of it.

A perfect circle is overrated as well.

Yeh my signature quote is a lyric from the tool song schizm one of my favioute bands. I think the lyrics 'I know the pieces fit because I watched I watched them fall away is a very accurate desription of a dp state, in that you know your sposed to feel real and you know 'the pieces fit' but everything feels seperate and empty, but still you have hope I spose because you can remeber time when you felt real.

Maynard writes brilliany lyrics, he is one of my favioute lyricist's.

Thats cool if you want to use my sig in your paper, the lyrics is preety much one of the best descriptions I could find in a song of the state of dp along with a lot of other tool lyrics, especilly for me the songs reflection and 46 and 2.

It's weird, some songs are made for DP. That video is WEIRD. But cool.
Check these lyrics out - it's spooky how much this captured how I felt at my worst. It' even got a bit of psychoanalysis in there

Artist: Phoenix
Song: If I ever feel better

They say an end can be a start
Feels like I've been buried yet I'm still alive
It's like a bad day that never ends
I feel the chaos around me
A thing I don't try to deny
I'd better learn to accept that
There are things in my life that I can't control
They say love ain't nothing but a sore
I don't even know what love is
Too many tears have had to fall
Don't you know I'm so tired of it all
I have known terror dizzy spells
Finding out the secrets words won't tell
Whatever it is it can't be named
There's a part of my world that' s fading away
You know I don't want to be clever
To be brilliant or superior
True like ice, true like fire
Now I know that a breeze can blow me away
Now I know there's much more dignity
In defeat than in the brightest victory
I'm losing my balance on the tight rope
Tell me please, tell me please, tell me please...If I ever feel better
Remind me to spend some good time with you
You can give me your number
When it's all over I'll let you know
Hang on to the good days
I can lean on my friends
They help me going through hard times
But I'm feeding the enemy
I'm in league with the foe
Blame me for what's happening
I can't try, I can't try, I can't try...
No one knows the hard times I went through
If happiness came I miss the call
The stormy days ain't over
I've tried and lost know I think that I pay the cost
Now I've watched all my castles fall
They were made of dust, after al
lSomeday all this mess will make me laugh
I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait...
If I ever feel better
Remind me to spend some good time with you
You can give me your number
When it's all over I'll let you know
If I ever feel better
Remind me to spend some good time with you
You can give me your number
When it's all over I'll let you know
It's like somebody took my place
I ain't even playing my own game
The rules have changed well I didn't know
There are things in my life I can't control
I feel the chaos around me
A thing I don't try to deny
I'd better learn to accept that
There's a part of my life that will go away
Dark is the night, cold is the ground
In the circular solitude of my heart
As one who strives a hill to climb
I am sure I'll come through I don't know how
They say an end can be a start
Feels like I've been buried yet I'm still alive
I'm losing my balance on the tight rope
Tell me please, tell me please, tell me please...
If I ever feel better
Remind me to spend some good time with you
You can give me your number
When it's all over I'll let you know
If I ever feel better
Remind me to spend some good time with you
You can give me your number
When it's all over I'll let you know
If I ever feel better
Remind me to spend some good time with you
You can give me your number
When it's all over I'll let you know
