Gary Jules - Mad World
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kinda funny
I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very mad world mad world
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me
And I find it kinda funny
I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very mad world ... mad world
Enlarging your world
Mad world

i just finished watching brothers & sisters. It's so addictive.
When Justin was at AA (or the drug equivalent), he had to say the Serenity Prayer:
God, Grant me the serenity
to accept the things i cannot change;
The courage to change the things i can;
And the wisdom to know the difference.
Mummy used to have the this stained glass ornament with the prayer etched onto it, and i used to walk past it everyday and read it. But after not seeing it for so long and now suddenly hearing it again, i kinda realize how beautiful it actually is.
I think i have to be stronger sometimes. I have to be more decisive and be courageous enough to know that i can survive on my own. Coz sometimes the things that we depend on won't always be there.
Rght now i need the wisdom to know the difference the most. Where to go, how to go, who to go to. I always like living in my perfect little bubble that when somebody comes along and bursts it, i am at an utterly horrible loss.
So i say i need your comforting, but will it be enough?
i thought you were the one who would always protect the bubble i'm in.
