I was listening to this song this morning. It's evocative of returning to a "safe space", be it the sanctuary of a trusted friend or lover's presence or the safety of a home you've made for yourself...
When the calls & conversations
Accidents & accusations
Messages & misperceptions
Paralyze my mind
Buses, cars, & airplanes leaving
Burning fumes of gasoline and
Everyone is running and I
Come to find a refuge in the
chorus: Easy silence that you make for me
It's ok when there's nothing more to say to me
And the peaceful quiet you create for me
And the way you keep the world at bay for me
The way you keep the world at bay
Anger plays on every station
Answers only make more questions
I need something to believe in
Breathe in sanctuary in the

"Easy Silence" by Emily Robison, Martie Maguire, Natalie Maines and Dan Wilson
from Taking The Long Way. You can listen to a clip on Amazon.

I'm very glad for [livejournal.com profile] jw1776, [livejournal.com profile] skydancer, [livejournal.com profile] dianthus, [livejournal.com profile] cyberangel_, and others who are my safe spaces...
