I've been listening to a lot of The Tragically Hip lately. The moody, complex sound and poetic lyrics seem to fit my mood right now. I've been happy, but introspective. I have an endocrinologist appointment this week. It's the last one for adjusting dosages etc. After this, I'll be on the maintenance plan. We've come to the plateau for which we were waiting. Big decisions are coming. And with that, I leave you the lyrics from It's a Good Life if You Don't Weaken by The Tragically Hip.
When the colour of the night
and all the smoke for one life
gives way to shaky movements,
improvisational skills,
a forest of whispering speakers
lets swear that we will
get with the times,
in a current health to stay
lets get friendship right
get life day-to-day
in the forget-yer-skates dream
full of countervailing woes
In diverse-as-ever scenes
proceeding on a need-to-know
in a face so full of meaning
as to almost make it glow
0 for a good life, we just might have to weaken
and find somewhere to go
go somewhere were needed
find somewhere to grow
grow somewhere were needed.
when the colour of the night
and all the smoke in one life
gives way to shaky movements,
improvisational skills
in the forest of whispering speakers
lets swear that we will
get with the times,
in a current health to stay
lets get friendship right
get life day-to-day
in the forget-yer-skates dream
full of countervailing woes
In diverse-as-ever scenes
proceeding on a need-to-know
in a face so full of meaning
as to almost make it glow
0 for a good life, we just might have to weaken
and find somewhere to go
go somewhere we're
find somewhere to grow
grow somewhere we're needed
find somewhere to go
lets go somewhere we're needed
find somewhere to grow
We grow where we are needed
cause in the forget-yer-skates dream
you can hang your head in woe
and this diverse-as-ever scene
know which way to go
