Destined Continuation

Quote:

When the rain falls down
When it all turns around
When the light goes out
This isn't the end

~Owl City - This Isn't The End [Ultraviolet - EP]

Month Arc:

Time And Entropy

Now a long, long time ago, I gave in to the darkness so...

What happens now? Will I come around?...

I'm a silhouette chasing rainbows on my own...

And that's when it became a dream...

I've been lying to me; tried to get me to see...

Rub your eyes, you're a star in a summer night...

Downy feathers kiss your face and flutter everywhere...

I fall asleep in hospital parking lots and awake in your mouth...

Passing thoughts leave me alone...

And now my vision can render the scene...

When the sky fell in, when the hurricanes came for me...

I'm still on the moon... still on the moon...

Things get complicated, so I've watched and waited...

I'll miss you with all my heart, but I'd rather be alone...

My life was good but nothing will stay...

It's just the beginning, this isn't the end...

Deceptive End

Whoa, ohhh, now can't ya see?

Because I'm just, I'm just who I want to be
I'm just me

Time's Unfairness

Personal Quote:

I hear the clocks tick every single day

See the sky fade from blue to grey
Planet Earth can only spin one way
Thinking at all causes you dismay

Can you hear all that the winds say
Because six feet under is where we all lay
My life was good but nothing can stay
So let's watch the universe fade away

~Fade Away

Unprecedented Joy

Quote:

And then
When the Empress ran aground
And my eyes turned blue and green
I heard a gorgeous sound
And that's when it became a dream

When the sky fell in
When the hurricanes came for me
I could finally crash again
And that's how I became the sea

Self-Integration

Quote:

Take me above your light
Carry me through the night
Hold me secure in flight
Sing me to sleep tonight

Take me above your light (Hello Seattle)
Carry me though the night (I am a mountaineer, in the hills and highlands)
Hold me secure in flight (I fall asleep in hospital)
Sing me to sleep tonight (parking lots, and awake in your house)

Can you feel a silk embrace in the satin air?
If we dissolve without a trace, will the real world even care?
Downy feathers kiss your face and flutter everywhere
Reality is a lovely place but I wouldn’t want to live there...

Patience

Inspiration

Quote:

Things get complicated
So I've watched and waited
For the moment I'll find
Someone like me
I feel so underrated
Some just leave me frustrated
Maybe I've finally found
Someone like me

~Aviators - Someone Like Me [Mirrors] 

We think about "thank you for your service," and people say, "So what does 'thank you for your service' mean to you?" Well, "Thank you for your service" means to me, it means acknowledging our stories, asking us who we are, understanding the strength that so many people, so many people who we serve with, have, and why that service means so much. "Thank you for your service" means acknowledging the fact that just because we've now come home and we've taken off the uniform does not mean our larger service to this country is somehow over. The fact is, there's still a tremendous amount that can be offered and can be given...

Quote:

I'm a silhouette asking every now and then
"Is it over yet? Will I ever feel again?"
I'm a silhouette chasing rainbows on my own
But the more I try to move on, the more I feel alone
So I watch the summer stars to lead me home...

A blurry image of wreckage and roadside debris
Happiness returned to me
Through a grave emergency

I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest
The trees keep the tempo and they sway in time
Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus
If I were to pluck on your heartstrings would you strum on mine?

This picnic will soon depart
Real life, I'm sad to see you go
I'll miss you with all my heart
But I'd rather be alone
'Cause I couldn't live without
Sunsets that dazzle in the dusk
So I'll drag the anchor up
And rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust

I've broken my own bones
(No more throwing stones...)

And I can hear the clock tower ringing
The mournful ghosts in the hall still singing
Welcome to my strange dimension

I'm not a zombie plagued with sickness
I'm just a mess and you know how to fix this
If this is love we can figure it all out
In this old haunted house

My Darker Side

Quote:

Now a long, long time ago
I gave in to the darkness so
I could have all the power
Pitch black for every hour
And though she tried to stop me
I'll rise again, if slowly
For a thousand years, I will prepare
This is only the beginning of the nightmare

~Aviators - The Beginning Of The Nightmare [Haunted House - And Other Stories]
