Is it you or just the notion of your heart to wrap around so I can find my way around?
That little gem comes from a song I have recently rediscovered, "Rain" by Breaking Benjamin.
I listened to that track as I sat in the office copy editing today and it struck a chord with me in more ways than one.
These days I find myself wondering if I put my jam-packed schedule in place simply to help me find my way around everything else in my life? As much as I enjoy being so busy that scraping out six hours of sleep is a challenge, I don't necessarily know that this exact life is what I want. I've come to realize that I just like the notion of being occupied during every waking hour. Unfortunately right now, the only thing I have to occupy myself is work. I would much rather be occupied with something else for at least the latter part of the day...
I wouldn't say I've necessarily reached a point of despair. I think I've just reached a point of full and total exhaustion, both mentally, physically and emotionally.
When you have to battle your own mind just to get yourself out of bed in the morning, something is wrong with the situation you're in, especially when you are normally the type of person who looks forward to taking on the world and all it throws your way.
I just want to get back to me. I'm just waiting for the sun...

"Rain" by Breaking Benjamin
Take a photograph, it'll be the last
Not a dollar or a crowd could ever keep me here
I don't have a past, I just have a chance
Not a family or honest plea remains to say
Rain, rain, go away, come again another day
All the world is waiting for the sun
Is it you I want or just the notion of your heart to wrap around
So I can find my way around?
Safe to say from here, you're getting closer now
We are never sad 'cause we are not allowed to be
Rain, rain, go away, come again another day
All the world is waiting for the sun
Rain, rain, go away, come again another day
All the world is waiting for the sun
To lie here under you is all that I could ever do
To lie here under you is all
To lie here under you is all that I could ever do
To lie here under you is all
Rain, rain, go away, come again another day
All the world is waiting for the sun
Rain, rain, go away, come again another day
All the world is waiting for the sun
All the world is waiting for the sun
All the world is waiting for the sun
