you drink the cup to the bottom, but it burns in your hands. the cup was poured out on the Maker instead.

when i have nothing left, there is this one line of burning, wondrous truth that fills my cup up. and i am full. 

out on the green plains, i am but a ghost, bound up with all that i call 'mine'... but still the Light grows.

the flaming lips



oh to fight is to defend;
if it's not now then tell me when 
would be the time that you would stand up and be a man?

for to lose i could accept
but to surrender, i just wept
and regretted this moment, that i, i played the fool

'cause i'm a man, not a boy
and there are things you can't avoid
you have to face them when you're not prepared to face them

i can't tell where the sunbeams end and the starlight begins
it's all a mystery

lots of lyrics lately. yes, i know they're ambiguous to everyone but me. it's okay.

it would be a lie

and heaven knows, heaven knows
i've tried to find a cure for the pain
oh my lord, to suffer like you do
it would be a lie to run away

it would be a lie to run away

oh love that will not let me go
i rest my weary soul in Thee
i give Thee back the life i owe
that in Thine ocean depths its flow may richer, fuller be!

oh joy that seekest me through pain
i cannot close my heart to Thee
i trace the rainbow through the rain
and trust the promise is not vain, that morn shall tearless be!

oh cross that liftest up my head
i dare not ask to fly from thee
i lay in last life's glory dead
and from the ground there blossoms red life that shall endless be!

I like updating from the airport. It makes me feel sophisticated and world-traveling. 

;) I'M GOING TO THE BEACH! 

See you when I get back.
