Breathe Deep

There's a ton of different thoughts running through my head right now.  It's one thing to keep your chin up, and throw yourself into a project, and it's another to sit, be silent, and face your anxiety.  I've had a thing for Singer-Songwriters for as far back as I can remember.  And I've been a closet fan of Jason Mraz.  And then, the other day, with my iPod on shuffle, this song came on.  Call it kismet.  But as I listened to the lyrics, I came to realize that it may have to be played again and again, when things are all too quiet and I'm feeling on edge.  I took a deep breath and let it go for a moment. Just wanted to share.   It may not apply to your life and experiences, but at the very least it's a beautiful song. 


Details in the Fabric
By Jason Mraz, James Morrison


Calm down
Deep breaths
And get yourself dressed instead
Of running around
And pulling all your threads saying
Breaking yourself up

If it's a broken part, replace it
But, if it's a broken arm then brace it
If it's a broken heart then face it

And hold your own
Know your name
And go your own way
Hold your own
Know your own name
And go your own way

And everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
Mmmhmm

Hang on
Help is on the way
Stay strong
I'm doing everything

Hold your own
Know your name
And go your own way
Hold your own
Know your name
And go your own way

And everything, everything will be fine
Everything

Are the details in the fabric
Are the things that make you panic
Are your thoughts results of static cling?

Are the things that make you blow
Hell, no reason, go on and scream
If you're shocked it's just the fault
Of faulty manufacturing.

Yeah everything will be fine
Everything in no time at all
Everything

Hold your own
And know your name
And go your own way

Are the details in the fabric (Hold your own, know your name)
Are the things that make you panic
Are your thoughts results of static cling? (Go your own way)

Are the details in the fabric (Hold your own, know your name)
Are the things that make you panic (Go your own way)
Is it Mother Nature's sewing machine?

Are the things that make you blow (Hold your own, know your name)
Hell no reason go on and scream
If you're shocked it's just the fault (Go your own way)
Of faulty manufacturing

Everything will be fine
Everything in no time at all
Hearts will hold 






Miss you much.
