"Sometimes we want to turn it off. That voice in our head that screams to us exaggerated notions of what we are like. It’s the voice that makes it so hard to escape the couch most nights, our own personal sauna of neuroses. TV helps, if we’re looking for a brief escape from it. Booze sometimes too, though we always think that will help more than it actually does. But these are like Band-Aids for a severed limb. We know the silence they create is the brief exception, not the rule. It’s spending time with the ones we love most, the ones with which we’ve stopped bothering to watch our angles, that gives us our most peaceful moments. Though it is not silence that they give us, but harmony."

Don't get lost in yourself
Get lost in me
I can take the troubles you carry
I can take it if you let me.
