I'm listening to: Foals - Alabaster

She's up in the sky, and the sky is on fire.


I love this song.

It's been a half-week from hell but I'm awfully glad it all worked out. =) I think learning the excruciatingly painful way - that it's too easy to overlook things that really matter and instead get distracted and so caught up in side issues to neglect the former - has been somewhat worthwhile, because I'm hoping the reminder will stick for awhile.

If tomorrow never comes (a friend's Facebook status; and what does it mean, really?), it would necessarily mean an interruption in the 24-hour time cycle, which could be astronomical/physical (the sun doesn't rise, etc. ) or metaphysical (a time-space glitch where time stops or loops). Since either of these possibilities are inconceivable based on the laws of this universe as we know it, our present reality will collapse and our present selves must also cease to exist. So, if tomorrow never comes, We will all perish along with the destruction of the world. On the other hand, if you consider a subjective perception/experience of the universe: if and when we die, tomorrow won't come either. I suppose the apocalyptic interpretation is quite evident to most people, though probably not in the same sense, and I'm not sure it's logically significant in song lyrics and the like.

Sighhhhh, Amanda.



Alabaster lover, you won't get more.
We made each other, you won't get more.
