White Ladder

I should know better than to drive around at night listening to David Gray...

My life will be going through some crazy-big changes in the near future. On the one hand, I'm so excited to see what's in store for me as I move to yet another new place and attempt to carve out my niche in the "real" world. This is what I've been working toward for the past 18 years. It's that pesky other hand that's been getting to me lately, though; the one clutching a jumble of daydreams and harsh realities and mixed blessings.

From: silver lining
by David Gray

take this silver lining
keep it in your own sweet head
shine it when the night is burning red
shine it in the twilight
shine it on the cold cold ground
shine it till these walls come tumbling down

know that the light don't sleep
step into the silence
take it in your own two hands and scatter it like diamonds all across these lands
blaze it in the morning
wear it like an iron skin
only things worth living for
innocence and magic-
amen
