who's singin' Bruce?

in my brain:

... let me in: I wanna be your friend;
I want to guard your dreams and visions.
Just wrap your legs round these velvet rims
And strap your hands 'cross my engines ...

i always thought. . .

well, i fell in love with broooce because he always sang about getting the hell out of dodge, in a dodge, if necessary. and i always (proof of geekdom if this is what you are thinking at 12) thought he was saying that even if you hate everything (people and place) about where you are from and there is really nothing there for you, leaving that much of yourself behind is always a high price to pay, whatever the benefit.

I was at least 25 before it even occurred to me he might have been referring to another (larger? different, anyway) price. And yeah, it's funny that salvation, or self-rescue/escape, or whatever the hell one wants to call getting outta Dodge, has that price. I was a lot older than 25 when I got my first good glimpse of that notion.
