My favorite song on their new album!
And this one is for my dear friend in Houston- who sprinted the three miles to the stadium with me, after I had abandoned my car on the highway after being stuck in ridiculous traffic for four hours and nearly in tears because I thought I would miss my fave band in concert--
Luckily for us we made it... with not a minute to spare.
Good friends
Good times
Great music
At the moment of surrender- U2

I tied myself with wire
To let the horses run free
Playing with the fire until the fire played with me
The stone was semi-precious
We were barely conscious
Two souls too smart to be in the realm of certainty
Even on our wedding day
We set ourselves on fire
Oh God, do not deny her
It's not if I believe in love
But if love believes in me
Oh, believe in me
At the moment of surrender
I folded to my knees
I did not notice the passers-by
And they did not notice me
I've been in every black hole
At the altar of the dark star
My body's now a begging bowl
That's begging to get back, begging to get back
To my heart
To the rhythm of my soul
To the rhythm of my unconsciousness
To the rhythm that yearns
To be released form control
I was punching in the numbers at the ATM machine
I could see in the reflection
A face staring back at me
At the moment of surrender
Of vision over visibility
I did not notice the passers-by
And they did not notice me
I was speeding on the subway
Through the stations of the cross
Every eye looking every other way
Counting down 'til the pain would stop
At the moment of surrender
Of vision over visibility
I did not notice the passers-by
And they did not notice me
Did you see their show? I saw it in Toronto... Absolutely amazing! One thing I would be happy to have done in my life... seen U2 concert :D
They were in town recently. Did you go see them?
