Everything you need.


People tend to be slightly bemused when they come to my flat and find out that I don't have a full length mirror. That means that when I want to see myself in all my glory, I need to step up on a stool, and the bathroom mirror is just sufficient.

I'm currently caught up in a lot of uni-work, and Everything You Need by Adem.


Home is where your heart comes from
but what do you do when your heart's gone
with everything you need?

It's at that point you've got to choose
to stay or go you're bound to lose
everything you need

Oh Laa daa day laa daa day laa daa day laa daa day

You got your stuff you packed your bags
You checked your things made sure you had
Everything you need

You upped, you left, you went away
To love, to fight another day
'gainst everything you need

Oh Laa daa day laa daa day laa daa day laa daa day

You severed your ties
Left us all behind
You said all your goodbyes
To everything you need
You severed your ties
Re-forge them make it right
Come back with open eyes
To everything you need

'Cause moments they can turn to dreams
And hopes and wants can sometimes seem
Like everything you need

But treated bad then left alone
You cried, we said to come back home
To everything you need

Laa daa day laa daa day laa daa day laa daa day

You severed your ties
Left us all behind
You said all your goodbyes
To everything you need
You severed your ties
Re-forge them make it right
Come back with open eyes
To everything you need

Yes, very reassuring. :) I don't really suffer under my mirror-less-ness. The stool technique works very well for me.
