Children Wake Up

I was on the bus to the library on Friday, and I was sat near a man who was singing Wake Up by Arcade Fire to himself, not giving a shit if anyone else could hear him. He made my day. He also got off at the same stop as me, and I wanted to tell him that he'd made my day, but then I checkened out.

Half Light

Our heads are just houses
Without enough windows
You say you hear human voices
But they're only echos

Only echos

Night falls, the walls of the city speaks of people who are not from here, who are from elsewhere, from another night.

"Music is well said to be the speech of angels;
in fact, nothing among the utterences allowed to man is felt to be so divine. It brings us near to the infinate."

In These Stones Horizons Sing

I cannot get over how amazing that phrase is.
