Playlist updates

I have this extremely annoying habit of listening to the same song over and over and over again, driving the people around me NUTS. To this day, my sister can't hear the song "The Look" by Roxette without screaming. (sorry sis! Thanks for loving me anyway). Anyway, my current fave is an oldie that I found on my iPod, covered in electronic dust, as it were. Bravado, by Rush, is a pretty awesome song.

If we burn our wings
Flying too close to the sun
If the moment of glory
Is over before it's begun
If the dream is won
Though everything is lost
We will pay the price,
But we will not count the cost

When the dust has cleared
And victory denied
A summit too lofty
River a little too wide
If we keep our pride
Though paradise is lost
We will pay the price,
But we will not count the cost

And if the music stops
There's only the sound of the rain
All the hope and glory
All the sacrifice in vain
[And] if love remains
Though everything is lost
We will pay the price,
But we will not count the cost

Since I've been pretty tight with my treadmill lately, I need some musical motivation to keep me going. It's nice to find songs that make you think.

It's a sad fact that things are so slow in my life lately that I've taken to posting song lyrics on my blog!
