Why do people listen to songs? Why do people read books? To forget myself for a while, to escape from myself. A good book, a good song, they drown out your inner voice. They sort of take control. You are immersed in the song, you are immersed in the book – and you are freed from your own experiences and thoughts and you are imbued with the thoughts of the author. It's like you're stepping out of your body and becoming someone else.
