occasionally i wake up in the middle of the night underwater and in the dark. random thoughts on rapid fire and my wings are aching to spread wide. heavy weights of expectation and unreasonable goals attack the seedlings of self expression. i am lost in the wonder of our existence and amazed by our reactions to each other.
then i trip upon music and a song will capture and cradle my fears. it is then that i am reminded of the beauty of my life.
i'd like to introduce you to an old friend...
Supertramp – Lord Is It Mine
I know that there's a reason why I need to be alone
You show me there's a silent place that I can call my own
Is it mine, Oh! Lord is it mine?
You know I get so weary from the battles in this life
and as many times it seems that you're the only hope in sight
Is it mine, Oh! Lord is it mine?
When everything's dark and nothing seems right,
there's nothing to win, and there's no need to fight
I never cease to wonder at the cruelty of this land
but it seems a time of sadness is a time to understand
Is it mine, Oh! Lord is it mine?
When everything's dark and nothing seems right,
You don't have to win, and there's no need to fight
If only I could find a way
to feel your sweetness through the day
The love that shines around me could be mine.
So give us an answer, won't you,
We know what we have to do,
There must be a thousand voices trying to get through.
