An elderly man was sitting alone.
He wasn't sure of which direction to go, and he'd forgotten both where he was traveling to... and who he was. He'd sat down for a moment to rest his weary legs, and suddenly looked up to see an elderly woman before him. She grinned toothlessly and with a cackle, spoke: "Now your third wish. What will it be?"

"Third wish?" The man was baffled. "How can it be a third wish if I haven’t had a first and second wish?"

"You’ve had two wishes already," the hag said, "but your second wish was for me to return everything to the way it was before you had made your first wish.

timeless.

Do you know of one song that is timeless and brings you back to what you were feeling the first time you heard it?
For me, that song is Konstantine by Something Corporate.
I try not to listen to it too often because I'm scared it will lose its uniqueness
But every time I do,
Konstantine makes me feel exactly how I felt when I was 16 and this song meant the world to me
Being a teenager, I think I gave this song much more meaning than I could feel at that time, but some people say teenagers' feelings are 10x exaggerated/increased, so who knows really?
"This is to a girl who got into my head with all the pretty things she did"



PS: Something Corporate is making a reunion tour this summer. I would still give my left and right arm just to hear that song live.
