F*cked Up

Life in the office is quite effed up right now. Sometimes, too much is too much. It it was a regular job, I would have resigned last week. As it is, I can only hope to endure the storm that is surely to come soon and hope that whatever umbrella that's suppossed to shelter me appear magically in my hand very very soon.


Some people 'up there' should order a complete revamp of my department. We are understaffed, overworked, underpaid, stressed out and will soon be contemplating mass suicide.


Anyway......I found this song accidentally while on youtube and could vaguely remember it being on TV for some reason or other. Turned out to be quite inspirational. The song is by Anggun, an international superstar, originally from Indonesia, who later moved to France and has since been a citizen there, with most of her songs originally in French. This is, to date, her biggest(English) hit. YOu can hear on youtube. I don't want to figure out how to put songs on my blog yet.


Snow on the Sahara

Only tell me that you still want me here
When you wander off out there
To those hills of dust and hard winds that blow
In that dry white ocean alone

Lost out in the desert
you are lost out in the desert

But to stand with you in a ring of fire
I'll forget the days gone by
I'll protect your body and guard your soul
From mirages in your sight

Lost out in the desert

If your hopes scatter like the dust across your track
I'll be the moon that shines on your path
The sun may blind our eyes, I'll pray the skies above
for snow to fall on the Sahara

If that's the only place where you can leave your doubts
I'll hold you up and be your way out
And if we burn away, I'll pray the skies above
for snow to fall on the Sahara

Just a wish and I will cover your shoulders
With veils of silk and gold
When the shadows come and darken your heart
Leaving you with regrets so cold

Lost out in the desert

If your hopes scatter like the dust across your track
I'll be the moon that shines on your path
The sun may blind our eyes, I'll pray the skies above
for snow to fall on the Sahara
If that's the only place where you can leave your doubts
I'll hold you up and be your way out
And if we burn away, I'll pray the skies above
for snow to fall on the Sahara


I would recommend more songs for you but I would probably just bore the three people who remembers to read my blog....
