"Affirmation"

Y'all, I know this isn't really about Aussiepants, but this song has been in my head quite literally for the past three days. You might have heard it; I love it - I agree with most of it, and the parts I don't necessarily agree with really make me think.

"Affirmation" -Savage Garden

I believe the sun should never set upon an argument
I believe we place our happiness in other people's hands
I believe that junk food tastes so good because it's bad for you
I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do
I believe that beauty magazines promote low self-esteem
I believe I'm loved when I'm completely by myself alone

I believe in Karma, what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can't appreciate true love 'til you've been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don't know what you've got until you've said goodbye

I believe you can't control or choose your sexuality
I believe that trust is more important than monogamy
I believe your most attractive features are your heart and soul
I believe that family is worth more than money or gold
I believe the struggle for financial freedom is unfair
I believe the only ones who disagree are millionaires

I believe in Karma, what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can't appreciate true love 'til you've been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don't know what you've got until you've said goodbye

I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness
I believe that wedded bliss negates the need to be undressed
I believe that God does not endorse TV evangelists
I believe in love surviving death into eternity

I believe in Karma, what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can't appreciate true love 'til you've been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don't know what you've got until you've said goodbye



Oh, Savage Garden. Love you, mean it!
