Aimee Mann is the best song lyricist that I know of. Her lyrics are funny and clever in a way that many other artists’ lyrics are not. Two of the songs I enjoy by Ms. Mann include “Driving Sideways” and “Stranger into Starman.” With another song, “Save Me,” I resonated deeply with the lyrics because I felt like I was part of “the ranks of the freaks who suspect they could never love anyone.”

Save Me
July 1998. I had no idea I had a need for a savior or that I even needed saving.
January 2010. Now I desperately want to be saved and feel so lost, so abandoned, so alone.
Where are you, God?
