spend all your time waiting for that second chance
for the break that will make it ok
there's always some reason to feel not good enoughand it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction, oh beautiful release

memories seep from my veins they may be empty and weightless, and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight

in the arms of an Angel, fly away from here from this dark, cold room and the endlessness that you fearyou are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverieyou're in the arms of an angel, may you find some comfort hereso tired of the straight line, and everywhere you turn
there's vultures and thieves at your back
the storm keeps on twisting, you keep on building the lies
that you make up for all that you lack it don't make no difference, escaping one last time
it's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees

in the arms of an angel far away from here, from this dark, cold roomand the endlessness that you fear you are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie
in the arms of an angel, may you find some comfort here

It's a beautifully haunting tune. You coupled it well with the photos.

Saw Sarah do this at Lillith fair. I wept like a baby...
Not waiting any more she said..

some songs haunt you always..

It's worthy of listening to again--even if it pulls on my heart and turns my brain silent.

Maybe that's not an all bad thing, eh?

Just wanted you to know I have been here. I'm speechless. I don't know what this song does to you, but I know what it does to me.
Thanks.

Peace.

I, Like The View said...

hey katherine. good to see you!! glad you like it (thought the old place needed a freash coat of paint on the front door, so to speak)

man somethings are difficult to put into words, aren't they?

well, I can never find the right ones a lot of the time - but there's always a lyric and a tune that fits the bill

Mel am loving the hugs - backatya
