Pink Floyd – Learning to Fly<\/p>\n
Into the distance, a ribbon of black
\nStretched to the point of no turning back
\nA flight of fancy on a windswept field
\nStanding alone my senses reeled
\nA fatal attraction holding me fast, how
\nCan I escape this irresistible grasp?
\nCan’t keep my mind from the circling skies
\nTongue-tied and twisted Just an earth-bound misfit, I<\/p>\n
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
\nUnheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
\nNo navigator to find my way home
\nUnladened, empty and turned to stone
\nA soul in tension that’s learning to fly
\nCondition grounded but determined to try<\/p>\n
Can’t keep my mind from the circling skies
\nTongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
\nAbove the planet on a wing and a prayer,
\nMy grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air,
\nAcross the clouds I see my shadow fly
\nOut of the corner of my watering eye
\nA dream unthreatened by the morning light
\nCould blow this soul right through the roof of the night<\/p>\n
There’s no sensation to compare with this
\nSuspended animation, A state of bliss
\nCan’t keep my eyes from the circling skies
\nTongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I<\/p>\n
=======================<\/p>\n
I feel better tonight. I had a really good and helpful talk with Josh, Jul & Matt tonight. I feel that this was the therapy I really needed, and it didn’t cost me $80. I do feel better… more aware of myself and what seems amiss. <\/p>\n
After leaving Josh & Jul’s, I went over to Corey & Sara’s. Mike S., Mike D., & Emmett rode with me to The Improv in West Hollywood for Phil Varone’s show. We all sang the Rainbow Connection (along with Kermit) just as we entered Hollywood. \ud83d\ude42 It made me smile.<\/p>\n
The show was good overall. I really liked the comic guitarist best. I think his name was J Chris Newberg. I took a nap on Mike S.’s shoulder during the last act; then, we drove home listening to some good music Mike D. was finding on my ipod. Pink Floyd’s Comfortably Numb came on and I just felt better… it was a rapid turn of emotion from not so good to – well, comfortably numb. After I dropped the three of them back off at Corey & Sara’s, Learning to Fly came on… my mood went up dramatically. I began to think about the fact that I do have really amazing friends and my situation isn’t going to keep breaking me over and over again. I think I am going to begin to heal now.<\/p>\n
Especially right now… Dagan is to my left, Sandy is on my lap, Aurora is to my right and Gracie is looking out the window. I am surrounded by love. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
