Big Space
















This is Suzanne Vega. My dearest wish in life is to hear her singing live. Sometimes I feel she has already said pretty much all I want to say and obviously better...
This is what I'm listening to today...

Big Space

He said you stand in your own shoes
I said I'd rather stand in someone else's
He said you look from your direction
I said I like to keep perspective

Close to the middle of the network
It seems we're looking for a center
What if it turns out to be hollow
We could be fixing what is broken

Between the pen and the paperwork
I know there's passion in the language
Between the muscle and the brainwork
There must be feeling in the pipeline

Beyond the duty and the discipline
I know there's anger in a cold place
All feelings fall into the big space
Swept up like garbage on a weekend

All feeling
falls into the big space
All feeling
Swept into the
Avenues of angels
