I like the lyrics to this song; they reflect turmoil in a uniquely expressive way.... yes, maybe two wrongs can sometimes make a right; maybe tension is but a passing note, to a beautiful, beautiful chord (sixpence)...

I am beginning to think that this is possible, that accidents can miracles make; that deep mistakes can the best beginnings be born... Please let it be so...

10,000 stones - Adrianne

10,000 stones are hanging
deep in my heart
no I don't know how they
don't tear me apart
how could I ever believe
10,000 stones would build
the best of me.

I've seen a lot in my life
I've seen two wrongs make a right
When everything was crashing
I know that you got your plans
You're always taking your stand
But I was only asking
I was never asking for

10,000 stones hanging deep in my heart
no I don't know how they don't tear me apart
how could I ever believe
10,000 stones would save the fool in me
10,000 stones would be a strange blessing
10,000 stones would build the best of me

Sometimes I smile in the mirror even when I am not particularly happy, flash myself the brightest and most brilliant smile I can manage.

Sometimes I watch random videos on youtube just to see a stranger's heartfelt smile and feel the warmth spread through my heart. I wish then that I can reach through the screen.

Sometimes I smile through the tears, just to know I can.

Sometimes I smile at little kids playing in the supermarket and it heartens me when they smile, shyly, back.

Sometimes I smile just to practice, so I may not forget.

It is funny but I believe the gift of foresight at a young age makes one seem awfully precocious and presumptuous, and in the face of such criticism, foresight is stuffed down the gutter in exchange for starry-eyed mistakes.
