rdm_ationSo don't take my photograph
'Cause I don't want to know how it looks
To feel like this
As cars and people pass
It feels like standing still but I know
I'm just moving uncomfortably slow
That chorus pretty much sums up what I've been like these past couple of days. I feel like I'm in a sort of daze, but at the same time wide awake. Shock I guess. It always surprises me how a song written by someone on the other side of the world, probably written about a completely different issue, can tie in so closely with my state of mind right now. That's the thing about music - it can move you, or it can provide an escape. Sometimes both. That's the main reason I love it so much. It's powerful.
Agh I'm rambling and making no sense. Apologies.
On another (related) note, that album - Newton Faulkner: Hand Built by Robots - is really good. If you haven't listened to it, do. You won't regret it.
Perhaps I'll just stop there for now.
I tried.
