Maundy Thursday

Some cool music from one of the bands that continue to inspire me...


Chocolate - Snow Patrol
This could be the very minute
I'm aware I'm alive
All these places feel like home

With a name I'd never chosen
I can make my first steps
As a child of 25

This is the straw, final straw in the
Roof of my mouth as I lie to you
Just because I'm sorry doesn't mean
I didn't enjoy it at the time

You're the only thing that I love
It scares me more every day
On my knees I think clearer

Goodness knows I saw it coming
Or at least I'll claim I did
But in truth I'm lost for words

What have I done it's too late for that
What have I become truth is nothing yet
A simple mistake starts the hardest time
I promise I'll do anything you ask...this time


I like one of the comments posted about the video as well:

'chocolate isn't a necessity its something we like or want, and Lightbody consumed the "chocolate" by cheating on his girlfriend which inspired him to write this song. The song itself represents his regret and his urge to become a better person. The video represents this by showing Lightbody not giving in to materialistic needs that everyone else is obviously obsessed with. I think the message just states that we should love what really matters instead of empty self indulgence, life is too short.' - opium123

It's the Holy Week holiday today until Sunday...quiet weekend for most of us -- if you don't count the old people singing the "Passion of the Christ" as their penance for their sins. haha. Overall, despite the monotonously offtune background surround sound effects, it's a nice week to cool down a bit.

Also, in bible study...I learned something that was really quite striking:

We must translate our passions into strategic action.

Cool stuff yeah? Hehe...that's all for now, folks! Have a blessed week! :)
