Listening to Beautiful Things by Andain (Gabriel & Dresden unplugged mix). Probably one of the best trance songs of all time, at least in my book. Remembrance of a past in music form.

Got up early, found something’s missing ..
my only name.

No one else sees but I got stuck,
and soon forever came.

Stopped pushing on for just a second,
then nothing’s changed.

Who am I this time, where’s my name?
I guess it crept away.

No one’s calling for me at the door.
And unpredictable won’t bother anymore.
And silently gets harder to ignore.

Look straight ahead, there’s nothing left to see.
What’s done is done, this life has got its hold on me.
Just let it go, what now can never be.

I forgot that I might see
so many beautiful things.

I forgot that I might need
to find out what life could bring.

Take this happy ending away, it’s all the same.
God won’t waste this simplicity on possibility.

Get me up, wake me up, dreams are filling
this trace of blame.

Frozen still I thought I could stop,
now who’s gonna wait.

No one’s calling for me at the door
and unpredictable won’t bother anymore
and silently gets harder to ignore.

Look straight ahead, there’s nothing left to see.
What’s done is done, this life has got it’s hold on me.
Just let it go, what now can never be.

Now what do I do
can I change my mind
did I think things through?

It was once my life – it was my life at one time..

Talk about nostalgia, alienation, melancholy as the quintessential postmodern condition, .. or maybe it’s just me and the winter is coming. Enjoy the song.
