Valley of Burnout

Stuck in reverse?

Fix you

When you try your best but you don’t succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can’t sleep
Stuck in reverse
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can’t replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

And high up above and down below
When you’re too in love to let it go
But if you never try you’ll never know
Just what you’re worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And i…
Tears stream down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And i…

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

My emotions are in a constant state of flux, I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m just that kind of person. A bit like the girl who when she was good, she was very, very good, but when she was bad, she was very, very bad – I think when I’m in good form, I’m in very good form and when I’m in bad form, I’m in very bad form! Ah well, I guess it makes life interesting! Anyway I’m loving this song by Coldplay, and during the times I’ve been on a downer recently, I strongly identify with so much of what it says - feeling like I'm so far away from somewhere I can call home and stuck in reverse. I don’t know what it is about depressing songs, maybe there is just some comfort in knowing that other people have felt what you feel, and it makes you feel that you’re that little bit less alone.
