It's odd - every so often I'll be listening to a song and it seems like a specific lyric will reach out and grab me. When I take a moment to actually listen to it, it turns out to be very, very moving - a gem. 

Ever since I started to understand the nature of who I am, and that most people aren't, I've gotten very self-conscious about sharing these wisps of fantasy that roll through my mind... I feel like a teenager that folks look at, nod, and say "that's nice"

So I drop these here. I suspect folks here often feel the same way, but I have to let it out somewhere, n'est ce-pas? 

So my latest flight of fancy is around the Nightwish song [The Escapist](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybyU0pdIu4Y) and most notably these lyrics:

*This is who I am*  
*Escapist, paradise seeker*  
*Farewell now time to fly*  
*Out of sight, out of time, away from all lies*

*A nightingale in a golden cage*  
*That's me locked inside reality's maze*

I probably just overthing these things or something. Thanks for listening. Happy holidays, all.
