Keane - Hamburg Song

"Will you see me in the end
Or is it just a waste of time
Trying to be your friend
To shine, shine, shine
Shine a little light
Shine a light on my life
And warm me up again"

Was looking for a nice mellow song to enjoy, that didn't broach the topic of romance (I could twist this into romance.. but honestly, I need to clear my head for that topic -.-), and I found this gem. "Ah," I thought, "the volatility of friendships." I had someone ask me today about who I 'hanged' with, about whether I was with some other 'group' anymore. Honestly, I don't even know which group she was talking about.. But regardless, I'm not exactly much of a group person, than an extraneous wheel that hitches rides upon the metaphorical train of friends. Don't get me wrong, I adore pretty much all the people in these groups. I guess I do know though, that being in such a status means I'm more prone to not be invited to some events, more prone to lose contact with these people, more prone to know less about what's going on.. For now, that's OK.. Similar to how it was back in high school I guess.. But in the future, after we go our separate ways, what does it mean? Will it all indeed, not be existing 'in the end'? I suppose wrapping yourself in the happiness of the current moment is the only solace for it not being a 'waste of time'.

Well actually, I was just going to beat the dead horse about losing close friendships that at one point did warm me to the bottom of my heart, yet now just leave me shivering in the cold.. but you've heard enough about that one, haven't you?
