So Alive - Ryan Adams
Today I watched the boats
Moving through the harbor
Walking on water
In your arms I'd stay
Forever if I could
Fireer if I may
Keeps me in your thoughts, don't disappear
I am on your side
And so alive
So alive it isn't real
If this is how I feel
Then nothing now is true
And nothing now can ever be taken away from you
Sinking in the past
The things that shouldn't last
Just put to bed and stand beside me
Stand beside me
Always on your side
I'm on your side
And so alive it isn't real
I am on your side
And so alive
And so alive
And so alive
I am on your side
I am on your side
I am on your side
And so alive
So alive
Evening Keeds,
It is just one of those nights i think. Time for a change of font. I should really be finishing my legal studies revision, but i am being distracted. Distracted by thoughts of nothingness. And m&m mosaics.
It rained today, and it was freezing. For sunny Queensland, the weather can be prety dismal. And compleatly freezing aswell! What is up with that anyway? It's warmer in New South Wales!
*sigh* Feeling...increadibly unfulfilled. Searching for something more, something which doesn't seem to exist at the moment. Its that same old end of term process, assignments, exams, late ngith full of coffee. After years and years of it, its starting to become tiresome. Intergrals, normal distribution, specific heat equations.
Don't get me wrong, i love al that stuff. Stuff that makes sense, stuff that explains other stuff. it works for me, and it look nice and neat al set out in my book, question in red, working in blue, answer highlighted in green. Perfect.
Except you know what? Its not perfect. Its becoming tedious. Somehow, i don't think i will ever be inclinded to mathematically calculate how long i have to drink my coffee before it drops below 70 C if i store it an a copper calorimeter. Fun equation, sure, but it's highly unlikely.
I'm looking for something i have to find a deeper meaning in. Something i have to struggle to make sense of, to get my head around. Something so deep and so complex that it daws you in, engulfs our mind compleatly. Something you can't do whilst making m&m mosics for your own amusment before you eat them.
have you ever read "When you wake and find me gone?" by Maureen McCarthy? I feel like Kit, lost inthe meaningless stuff. Even though its not really meaningless. Gah, I'm even confusing myself here! Maybe i don't know what i really want.
Espionage, terror and globel disorder. Now that sounds like something that i could really dig my teeth into.
Bah, I'm sure that this is just stage, bought on by sleep deprivation. I'm sure that when i sit down for a physics exam the importance of it all will all come flooding back. All the logical thinking skills that maths equips you with. All the thought process functions. The ability to distinguish and explain the differnce between calcium and strontium on a molecular level.
I want to meet a kid named Strontium, just on a personal note.
Anyway, back to it. Can't keep procrastinating forever you know!
