the most beautiful lie in the world

slaving away for the finals for the past few days! so tiring. okay i lie it's not really slaving away if i still find time to watch random shows and um, play pokemon. yes i'm revisiting my childhood and you can't say it's before i'm halfway through my first because my first childhood is definitively over. ):

anyway i really only wanted to share this because i think it's very cute but i doubt anyone would agree. and since i think it's been a while since my last fangirl post...



makes me happy every time i watch it.

i climbed the tree to see the world

my social psychology tutor has this habit of playing music before she starts the lesson, because it's an 8am tutorial that half the class is late for every week. usually i reach really early, so i always get to hear the songs that she plays at the start. but because it's also my busiest day of the week when most of my assignments are due, i normally rush to get some work done so it becomes just background music to me. some time ago -- i think the tutorial two or three weeks ago -- she played this song.

three seconds into the opening piano segment i stopped what i was doing and sat and listened to the song, completely absorbed.



sometimes i find music truly, truly amazing. although i guess some people might disagree, i like that you don't have to be technically versed in music to recognize a beautiful song when you hear one. i don't know if it was just me who felt the song this way; most of the other people in the classroom seemed oblivious. if you listen to the song i hope you find it as beautiful as i did.

lyrics if you couldn't make out the words -- i know i couldn't until i specifically listened for the lyrics because i was too preoccupied with listening to the piano and the way his voice turns (there must be some technical term for this but i don't know how else to describe it).

out in the garden where we planted the seeds
there is a tree as old as me
branches are sewn by the colour of grief
ground had arose and passed its knees

by the cracks of its skin i climbed to the top
i climbed the tree to see the world
when the gusts came around to blow me down
i held on as tightly as you held onto me
i held on as tightly as you held onto me

and i built a home
for you
for me

until it disappeared
from me
from you

and now it's time
to leave
and turn to dust

music: to build a home; the cinematic orchestra
