"Congartulations" -Blue October

Lyrics:

Is that seat taken
Congratulations
Would you like to take a walk with me

My mind it kind of goes fast
I try to slow it down for you
I think I'd love to take a drive
I want to give you something
I've been wanting to give to you for years
My heart

My heart, my pain won't cover up
You left me.. hu hu hu hu
My heart won't take this cover up
You left me.. hu hu hu hu

I came to see the light in my best friend
You seemed as happy as you'd ever been
My chance of being open was broken
And now you're Mrs. him.

My words they don't come out right
But I'll try to say I'm happy for you
I think I'm going to take that drive
I want to give you something
I've been wanting to give to you for years
My heart

My heart, my pain won't cover up
You left me.. hu hu hu hu
My heart
My heart won't take this cover up
You left me.. hu hu hu hu

And I can't change this
I can never take it back
But now I can't change your mind
(You left me)
And I can't change this
I can never take this back
But now I can't change your mind
can't change your mind
(You left me)
Can't change you mind
(You left me)
(You left me)
(You left me)
(You left me)

Go away
Make it go away
Please.

General idea/story inference:

I think this song is about a guy who still hasn't gotten over a past love.  It sounds like she is getting married or moving on and he comes and is still heart broken.  He wants to tell her that he still loves her.  He wants the pain of the heartbreak to go away, but it wont.

Quote Inferences:

1. "My mind it kind of goes fast/I try to slow it down for you"-- I think that when he says that he saying that he's kinda nervous and that his mind is racing.  When I'm nervous my mind goes crazy and things keep racing through my mind and I think thats what he's feeling.

2."I want to give you something/been wanting to give to you for years/My heart"--I think that he has liked this person for a long time (years).  He has never had the courage to tell her untill now.  He wants to give her his heart.

3."My heart, my pain won't cover up/You left me.. hu hu hu hu"--From this I can guess that they might have been a couple before but she left him and the pain still hasn't gone away.

4."My chance of being open was broken/And now you're Mrs. him."--He had a chance to tell her how he felt but he missed it. And now she's married and he cant do anything to change it cause he missed his one chance.

5."Go away/Make it go away/Please."--He wants the pain of the heartbreak to go away but it wont.

My Name!!

To me my name is everything i am.  I, at times, can be a very proud person.  I am very proud of my name. In hawaiian my name means protector or guardian.  It means a lot to me and being the oldest in my family my name suits me as I protect my siblings.  I'm hawaiian and japanese and in both cultures we are very proud.  What we are seen as and what people think of us is very important to us.  So I'm the kind of person that doesn't like it when insulted and is willing to fight when myself and my name is insulted or blackened.  People see me as a lot of different things and others have their different opinions when they hear my name.  Some of my friends see me as a goof and someone to have a good laugh with and others see me as someone to go to when having a hard time and need some help.  How other people see me is very important to me and I get sad when someone who doesn't even know me that well doesn't like me.  I feel that most people judge to much on outward appearances and what they see for the first time.  The majority doesn't take them time to really get to know someone and how they really are. I laugh about it but a lot of people either see me as annoying or really quiet, depending on who I'm with.  Without getting to know me people will make that assumption.  When they get to know me most people like me and say I'm really fun.  Some have told me stuff like, "I never thought you were like this when I first met you." and comments like that.  I try to do things that'll give me a good name but sometimes people just make assumptions from little mistakes I've made. The same applies to others out in the world.  So try to make a good name for yourself.
