old friend


So, it's a new month. 
A lot has already happened this month, I cannot even begin to explain, so I'll just share a song.

John Mayer entered my life when I was about 15, through his song '83.
Since then he often picks me up, makes me smile or is simply just the background music to my life. 

He released his 5th CD this year and I'm liking it, the song Age of Worry started playing while I was driving home from work the one afternoon this week and it struck me. Not sure yet what struck me, but it did. 

This is a live recording from last year January. 


Close your eyes and clone yourself
Build your heart an army
To defend your innocence
While you do everything wrong

Don't be scared to walk alone
Don't be scared to like it
There's no time that you must be home
So sleep where darkness falls

Alive in the age of worry
Smile in the age of worry
Go wild in the age of worry
And say, "Worry, why should I care?"

Know your fight is not with them
Yours is with your time here
Dream your dreams but don't pretend
Make friends with what you are

Give your heart then change your mind
You're allowed to do it
'Cause God knows it's been done to you
And somehow you got through it

Alive in the age of worry
Rage in the age of worry
Sing out in the age of worry
And say, "Worry, why should I care?"

Rage in the age of worry
Act your age in the age of worry
And say, "Worry, get out of here!"

Its the same song, but a month or so before. 

Hope you all are having a lovely Sunday
