We All Have Something That Digs at Us

I heard this song for the first time last week sometime - it's the new single on the radio by the band Incubus, and it is just an incredible song. I just love the honesty of the lyrics and how well it applies to my life.

I also can't help but think of my wife, Lisa, when I listen to it. This song pretty well sums up our relationship...

Incubus - Dig

We all have a weakness
But some of ours are easier to identify.
Look me in the eye and ask for forgiveness;
We'll make a pact to never speak that word again
Yes you are my friend.

We all have something that digs at us,
At least we dig each other
So when weakness turns my ego up
I know you'll count on the me from yesterday

If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone.

We all have a sickness
That cleverly attaches and multiplies
No matter how hard we try.

We all have something that digs at us,
At least we dig each other
So when sickness turns my ego up
I know you'll act as a clever medicine.

If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me.
Sing this song!
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone.

Oh each other....
When everything else is gone.

I cried, and then we kissed!
Ryan is a g00d boy!
