funk


i've been in a blogging funk lately. not wanting to post on anything, not feeling i have anything to post about. feeling insecure, feeling overconfident, feeling gipped, feeling extremely blessed, feeling messed up. feeling like i don't have much to offer but i know it's not true and even if it were, that would still be enough. just a funk.

dustin is a friend of mine and his song "all i've got" simply fits me right now.

sometimes i say too much and
sometimes i don't say enough
sometimes i hurt the ones that you all know i'd like to love and
sometimes i just give in when i know that i shouldn't
sometimes i'm too afraid
sometime it's just too late

this is all i've got
it's all i am
all i've got
it's all for you

every now and then i lie
when i wanna tell the truth
sometimes i run so hard
all i want's to be with you
sometimes i feel like you're not there
when you say you're everywhere
sometimes i'm too afraid
sometimes it's just too late

this is all that i've got
this is all that i've got
this is all that i've got
and it's all for you

and if i tell you that i love you do you love me
can you hear me can you hear me
if i tell you that i need you do you want me
can you hear me calling out

i think of all the price you paid
i pray thee lord my soul to take
every time i pray every time

this is all i've got
it's all i am
all i've got
it's all for you

in it

"Sam: You're in it right now, aren't you?
Andrew Largeman: What?
Sam: My mom always says that, when she can see I'm like working something out in my head, she's like, 'you're in it right now' and I'm looking at you're telling this story, and you're definitely in it."
~Garden State


...ya, i'm in it right now...


Spend all your time waiting
For that second chance
For a break that would make it okay
There's always one reason
To feel not good enough
And it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
Oh beautiful release
Memory seeps from my veins
Let me 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 hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort there

So tired of the straight line
And everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back
And the storm keeps on twisting
You keep on building the lie
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
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort there
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
