I know, I know, more song lyrics, but its worth it. Imogen Heap is my newest musical addiction and well worth it. Probably one of the best I've found in a very long time. The music is so good, simple piano solos, cascading string sequences, incredible, distinctive vocals. And the lyrics - able to express the most difficult to articulate and reach beyond that to tug at the completely inexpressible deep within you.
You can find this song on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F56kCh_Sso0 set to a collage of Gilmore Girls Luke/Lorelai if you want to take a listen...
Candlelight "Imogen Heap"
I am alone, surrounded by
The colour blue
Inside a poem, the only
Words I ever knew
Washing my hands, of the
Many years untold
For now I am banned, my
Future is to unfold
Would you take my
Candlelight
Would you take my
Candlelight
Would you take
My candlelight
Away from me
I am blind
My eyes
Are
Covered
From
The
Outside
For I have lied, now all
There is left for me
To do is hide
Take in a deep
Breath, I lift
My head
For I am a new man
And I arise from my bed
This is all there is, I can see that now
I have to be careful with it, now it’s been found
So fragile, but powerful, this is the light
Of my destiny stay with me, through every night
