fumbling towards ecstasy
Mood:  lyrical
Now Playing: Sarah McLachlan
Topic: Introspection
As most of you know, I'm rather eclectic when it comes to musical taste........ one day I could be listening to Jay Z, the next Velvet Revolver, music from Les Miserables........ you get the picture. I'm listening to Sarah McLachlan and Tori Amos at the moment....... I love the title track off of Sarah McLachlan's fumbling towards ecstasy album.... she is such an incredible songwriter. The music and the lyrics are just beautiful. I suppose that I haven't listened to her in a little bit because her songs are always played at funerals of my friends. *sigh* Speaking of which - Jason, an autoCAD operator at work had one of his friends kill himself Sunday night. That sucks. It seems that this kind of thing always happens around the holidays, too...... sounds like a good research paper topic. I'm actually looking forward to getting back to classes, I like being busy. Guess that's it for now. There will be a surprising post (well, maybe not surprising for everyone) in the next week. Like I said, stay tuned... and here are the lyrics from the SM song I was talking about:

All the fear has left me now
I'm not frightened anymore
It's my heart that pounds beneath my flesh
it's my mouth that pushes out this breath
and if I shed a tear I won't cage it
I won't fear love
and if I feel a rage I won't deny it
I won't fear love
Companion to our demons
they will dance, and we will play
With chairs, candles, and cloth
making darkness in the day
It will be easy to look in or out
upstream or down without a thought
and if I shed a tear I won't cage it
I won't fear love
and if I feel a rage I won't deny it
I won't fear love
Peace in the struggle
to find peace
comfort on the way
to comfort
and if I shed a tear I won't cage it
I won't fear love
and if I feel a rage I won't deny it

I won't fear love
I won't fear love
I won't fear love.
