third eye blind - semi-charmed life

Song: "Semi-Charmed Life"
Artist: Third Eye Blind
Album: Third Eye Blind (1997)

This was my favorite song for a month or two when I was 15. The song in music mirrored my mood at the time, hyper positive. Things were going well enough in school, I had a best friend who brought me positivity and growth as a person, I felt interested in "life", I had some idea of who I was, and I trusted the future would bring me better things. There were dramas, but I felt good.

I never tried to discover what the lyrics were. When I finally looked them up this decade, I was pretty surprised. All that ignorance. I bet it did psychological damage. ... If there's an answer to that mystery, I'm sure it's present on this blog by now.
