Amen Omen
What started as a whisper, slowly turned into a scream.
Searching for an answer where the question is unseen.
I don't know where you came from, and I don't know where you've gone.
Old friends become old strangers between the darkness and the dawn
Amen, Omen
Will I see your face again?
Amen, Omen
Can I find the place within-
To live my life without you..
I still hear you saying, 'All of life is a chance,
And is sweetest when at a glance.'
But I live a hundred lifetimes in a day.
But I die a little in every breath that I take.
Amen, Omen
Will I see your face again?
Amen, Omen
Can I find the place within-
To live my life without you..
I listen to a whisper slowly drift away.
Silence is the loudest parting word you never say.
I put- I put your world into my veins.
And now a voiceless sympathy is all that remains...
Amen, Omen
Will I see your face again?
Amen, Omen
Can I find the place within-
To live my life without you..
Amen
Omen
Omen
Oh...
-Ben Harper
I don't generally list lyrics in journals, but I've been feleing this song for a bit, partly, because of the quality of the music-but also because a few of the lines in the song just hit me as quite real for this moment in time. And it's quite possible that the frustration I've felt the past few days has been merely coincidental, or that I am simply hypersensitive to things that pertain to me, but I have-nonetheless felt a bit down lately.
Tonight is open house, dorm feud, dorm rave, and perhaps other stuff. Today is studying for my test tomorrow. I feel a complete lack of sociality coming on.
As I progress through the years here at school, I am realizing how shallow many of the friendships I've had here have been. A lot have been good, but there are plenty of people that my relationship with consists of "What's up, how are you doing, etc., etc." I want more sometimes.
On a good note, class got out early today, and I still don't feel stressed, and I laughed.
