Say It's Possible

I love finding new artists who, in one song, one chord change, one photograph, one poem, get it. Whatever is there, floating above our heads, between our bodies, through our hearts, only a few get it, capture it - part of it. Their part of it. So as a habitual gatherer of the human experience, I love finding these fragments, whole in themselves, putting them together, and making my world as it goes.

This singer/songwriter just won the YouTube best music video award, which doesn't say much, but her song certainly does. I listened to some of her other songs as well which, I have to admit, didn't do a lot for me. But this song is definitely worth a listen.

Say It's Possible - Terra Naomi (on a personal note, what is up with these pop singers with two first names?)

I see the lights are turning and I look outside
The stars are burning through this changing time
It could have been anything we want
It's fine, salvation was just a passing thought
It was just a passing thought

Don't wait, act now
This amazing offer won't last long
It's only a chance to save the path we're on
I know there are more exciting things to talk about
And in time we'll sort it out

And though they say it's possible
To me, I don't see how it's probable
I see the course we're on spinning farther from what I know
I'll hold on
Tell me that you won't let go

And truth is such a funny thing
With all these people
Keep on telling me
They know what's best
And what to be frightened of
And all the rest are wrong
They know nothing about us

And though they say it's possible
To me, I don't see how it's probable
I see the course we're on spinning farther from what I know
I'll hold on
Tell me that you won't let go

I'm not alright

This could be something beautiful
Combine our love into something wonderful
But times are tough I know
And the pull of what we can't give up takes hold
