When The music speaks to you

Is it just me or does it truly feel that when you're going through something (ok, like a breakup) that all the music around you seems to pull your heart because the lyrics speak so clearly to you?

Here's what's been speaking to my heart lately...

Stateless "Prism"
Woke up with a start, your voice in my head last night
Now I can't remember a single word
Images come back flashing like a broken light
Everything has gotten a little blurred

Snapped another thread, burned another bridge last night
How come I can act like such a fool?
I'm chasing it around, feels like an addiction
Guess I'll disregard it, make it disappear

Everything we said is messing with my head
I'm hanging by a thread and it's waning

You're just a little scared of being lonely
And I am, I am too
You're just a little scared of being lonely
And I am, I am too

Images come back flashing like a broken light
And everything has gotten a little blurred
It's chasing me around, it feels like an affliction
Guess I'll have to face it, make it disappear

Everything we said is messing with my head
I'm hanging by a thread and it's waning

You're just a little scared of being lonely
And I am, I am too
You're just a little scared of being lonely
And I am, I am too

You're just a little scared now, you're just a little scared now
You're just a little scared of being lonely
You're just a little scared of being lonely
And I am, I am too

You're just a little scared now, you're just a little scared now
You're just a little scared of being lonely
You're just a little scared of being lonely
And I am, I am too


Ben Harper "Walk Away"
Oh no
Here comes that sun again
That means another day
Without you my friend

And it hurts me
To look into the mirror at myself
And it hurts even more
To have to be with somebody else
And it's so hard to do
And so easy to say
But sometimes
Sometimes you just have to walk away
Walk away

With so many people
To love in my life
Why do I worry
About one

But you put the happy
In my ness
You put the good times
Into my fun
And it's so hard to do
And so easy to say
But sometimes
Sometimes you just have to walk away
Walk away
And head for the door

We've tried the goodbye
So many days
We walk in the same direction
So that we could never stray
They say if you love somebody
Then you have got to set them free
But I would rather be locked to you
Than live in this pain and misery

They say time will
Make all this go away
But it's time that has taken my tomorrows
And turned them into yesterdays
And once again that rising sun
Is droppin' on down
And once again you my friend
Are nowhere to be found
And it's so hard to do
And so easy to say
But sometimes
Sometimes you just have to walk away
Walk away
And head for the door
You just walk away
Walk away

it's fun....

....to workout with a broken heart. That's all. To me, nothing's been a better reminder that I'm still alive than forcing myself, physically and mentally, through an emotional setback. It's during those times that I have experienced the greatest triumph and have discovered what I am truly made of.

right where you are and always have been and will forever be

this, my darkened path i stroll looking down into the brush, with its edges that feather dust my ankles searching with strain until i flicker a glance at a glimmering edge of the path and know it's really there i cant be concerned with what's ahead it only scares the shit out of me it's like i may negate for myself, a place to step if i dont look down and my feet and soul may fall deep into the river some river i dont know any river a lake an ocean i dont know an abyss or an abysmal fate that will come as quickly as my panic to correct my unfortunate misstep but if i mis-stepped, i'd live with this misstep my sickness and pleas to reverse it would be in vain i'd plunge into something that doesnt smell look taste feel like anything ive ever smelled, seen, tasted and touched before it scares the shit out of me im head rushed into thinking about all the "what-ifs" rising and falling in me, my guts raining like glitter into cob web...

saving my world

I woke up this morning with the intention of getting some cardio out of the way.  Instead, I reached for my nail polish on my nightstand, touched up my french manicure and laid in bed for about 45 minutes until I decided it was safe to move around. I ran twice on Monday....and sprinted/lunged yesterday....I figured, unless my goal is to completely lose all muscle in my legs, perhaps I need to slow down. It's like that every time I go through a "seasonal" change - and not season like the weather, but season like another one of life's seasons.  I sense the seasons changing.  And when that happens, I am a bundle of energy buzzing and bouncing off the walls without the caffeine.  Relaxing is hard.  I just want to run - I want to paint - I want to be free - I want to inspire - to be inspired - to live and take advantage of all the things that make life great. Where others buckle and fall apart when change occurs, I tend to thrive.  I've always been that wa...
