For that Special Someone

For weeks, I have heard this song in my head as each day goes by...
I finally decided to post the lyrics here & maybe it will help them to go away...
For you-know-who-you-are.... whereever you are.... change "she" to "he"

"With Or Without You"

See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side
I wait for you

Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait without you

With or without you
With or without you

Through the storm we reach the shore
You give it all but I want more
And I'm waiting for you

With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away

My hands are tied
My body bruised, she's got me with
Nothing to win and
Nothing left to lose

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away

With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you

With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you
With or without you

“Lateralus”

“Lateralus” Written by Maynard James Keenan

Black then white are all i see in my infancy.
red and yellow then came to be,
reaching out to me. lets me see.
as below, so above and beyond,
I imagine drawn beyond the lines of reason.

Push the envelope. Watch it bend.
Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind.
Withering my intuition, missing opportunities and I must
Feed my will to feel my moment drawing way outside the lines.

Black then white are all i see in my infancy.
red and yellow then came to be,
reaching out to me. lets me see there is so much more
and beckons me to look thru to these infinite possibilities.
as below, so above and beyond, I imagine drawn outside the lines of reason.

Push the envelope. Watch it bend.
over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind.
Withering my intuition leaving opportunities behind.
Feed my will to feel this moment urging me to cross the line.

Reaching out to embrace the random.
Reaching out to embrace whatever may come.
I embrace my desire to feel the rhythm,
to feel connected enough to step aside
and weep like a widow to feel inspired to fathom the power,
to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain,
to swing on the spiral to swing on the spiral
to swing on the spiral of our divinity and still be a human.

With my feet upon the ground I move myself between the sounds
and open wide to suck it in. I feel it move across my skin.
I'm reaching up and reaching out. I'm reaching for the random
or what ever will bewilder me. what ever will bewilder me.
And following our will and wind we may just go where no one's been.
We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no one's been.
Spiral out. Keep going. Spiral out. Keep going. Spiral out. Keep going.
Spiral out. Keep going. Spiral out. Keep going.

The Search

"Let those who seek, continue seeking until they find.When they find, they will become troubled.  When they become troubled they will be astonished..." "Recognize what is in your sight,and that which is hidden from you will become plain to you."--The Lost Gospel of Thomas
   The search never ends. Knowledge of everything, physical and spiritual, is ongoing. The answers all lie at the end. I know the raod now though. That is a more than most know. I am truly blessed.
   We all teach each other. We all are Love. We all are one.
   Just most don't know this yet.
   Its amazing when you finally see the light.
   Affirmation from someone else that you meet and watch come back from the darkness is totally amazing and teaches more than one could ever believe.
   Such is Gary W. 2 for me.

Love

This is something I had on my Yahoo Messenger from a female friend I know little about. She has only spoken to me a few times over the past 8 months or so and has told me little. I don't even remember what we have chatted about but her profile is odd and the pic is of something odder. So, this really was a surprising thing to get.
   Of course, on the Internet, this could be anybody....
   If you have a penny and I have a penny and we exchange pennies, you still have one cent and I still have one cent. But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange ideas, you now have two ideas and I now have two ideas.
   to live is to love, to love is to feel, to feel is to hurt, to hurt is to lose, to lose is to hate, to hate is to heal, to heal is to change, to change is to risk, to risk is to love Love is a risk everyone takes, some of us win, some of us lose, it's a lottery of hearts, you never know what to expect, just keep playing the odds and pray for the best.

Wisdom & Age

Wisdom comes with age but, sometimes, age comes alone.

Seeking, healing, and psych

This was a post that I made to a music list I am on. It was in answer to a shocking show done which was, indeed, appalling. The person on the list said the band needed psychiatric help for doing such a show.........

   Psychiatric help is not always the answer for everything.
Take it from one that knows and has been there.
Just got on the other side good.
It can help but healing does come from within.
Whatever each of us may have inside that that others believe
is not right, will just stay there unless we come to also believe,
in some way, that it needs changed. From there, we will be the
real ones to do it. Everything else is just guidance. This is the only way
if real change happens, as I see it.
   There is a lot of self-expression and what is shown on the outside
and that is a whole different thing. What we do to make others think
or see inside our psyche to gain some understanding to who we are.
That is part of wanting to connect to others and other times,
wanting to seek change in the world around us.
Then there comes down to the search. The seeker.
And that is when we can be the most gullible. And openminded.
And also others most base instincts come out.

   Look at all of the lyrics about searching.
It can be a fascinating time. One of the scariest.
And one of the loneliest.
And one of the most dangerous.

"If it is peace you want,
seek to change yourself,
not other people."
