Comes And Goes (In Waves)


This one's for the lonely, the one's that seek and findOnly to be let down, time after timeThis one's for the torn down, the experts at the fallCome on friends, get up now, you're not alone at all
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ohOh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And this part was for her and this part was for her
This part was for her, does she remember?
It comes and goes in waves, I
This one's for the faithless, the ones that are surprisedThey're only where they are now, regardless of their fightThis one's for believing, if only for its sakeCome on friends, get up now, love is to be made
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ohOh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And this part was for her and this part was for herThis part was for her, does she remember?
It comes and goes in waves, IAm only led to wonder whyIt comes and goes in waves, IAm only led to wonder whyWhy I try
This is for the ones who standFor the ones who try againFor the ones who need a handFor the ones who think they can
It comes and goes in waves, IAm only led to wonder whyIt comes and goes in waves, IAm only led to wonder whyWhy I fly

The Power of Awareness

 "What is real to me is the power of our awareness when we are focused on something beyond ourselves. It is a shaft of light shining in a dark corner. Our ability to shift our perceptions and seek creative alternatives to the conundrums of modernity is in direct proportion to our empathy."

Practice, Practice, Practice

"The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven's sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something." 

- Kurt Vonnegut
