fistful of love

I've been thinking of this song lately, because:

a: It's on the running mix I created in 2005, which I have been rediscovering
b: Apparently toddlers really do use violence to say I love you (well, mine does). Just change the words slightly: "I feel that slap to the face/punch to the gut/toy you are whacking me with repeatedly, and I know it's out of love." (By the way, PSA, just because toddlers do it does not make it okay. In fact, most things they do are not okay for grown-ups.)

I love this song, though. It's gorgeous and tragic to the max.
