here but not there

I don't have to hear it,
if I don't want to
I can drown this out
Pull the curtains down on you
It's a heavy world,
It's too much for me to care,
If I close my eyes,
It's not there.

With my headphones on,
With my headphones on.

(Jars of Clay)

I have been a bit thoughtful this weekend, even as I spent time with friends, dreaming but not really. The heater is warming my feet but my hands are still cold. Yeah, my mind is elsewhere... have you ever had these moments?
