It is amazing how much music can affect us. A song can instantly change our mood, remind of something, or just fill us with awe that someone composed such great art (which is my general reaction to classical music, but there are a few pieces that truly affect me emotionally).

I am going to post some of the lyrics to songs that move me in some amazing way. So here is the first one, there will be more to come.

Mineral
End Serenading

Will you come and what will I say
Oh I have been so distant and unhappy
Like I could disappear

When I was a boy I saw things
That no one else could see
So why am I so blind at twenty-two
To the hope that is all around me
Filling up this room

On the road on my own
Waiting for the words to fall from your tongue
Into my ears

When I was a boy I could hear
Symphonies in seashells
So why am I so deaf at twenty-two
To the sound of the driving snow
That drives me home to you

I was going to write about what this song means to me, but I decided that might cheapen it a little. If you want to know what I think, ask me next time I see you. But for now, please read them, and see if they mean anything to you. Please check out the song, it is incredible.
