Indifference

I've just realized that for the past couple months of my relationship that just ended (over a year and a half in high school) I think I may have been playing the role of the other half in Indifference.. the indifferent half. Like I didn't put enough effort into it because I felt the connection was drying up.

Jesus..

Just sharing.

It's a pretty powerful song.
Come on pilgrim you know he loves you..

    I will light the match this morning, so I won't be alone
    Watch as she lies silent, for soon light will be gone
    Oh I will stand arms outstretched, pretend I'm free to roam
    Oh I will make my way, through, one more day in...hell

    How much difference does it make
    How much difference does it make...

    I will hold the candle, till it burns up my arm
    I'll keep takin' punches, until their will grows tired
    Oh I will stare the sun down, until my eyes go blind
    Hey I won't change direction, and I won't change my mind

    how much difference does it make
    how much difference does it make..
    how much difference...

    I'll swallow poison, until I grow immune
    I will scream my lungs out till it fills this room

    How much difference
    How much difference
    How much difference does it make
    How much difference does it make...

    When something gets this bad it is time to get out.

    Definately a powerful song. You can feel it in Ed's voice.
    Oh he fills it up with the love of a girl...

    if i were to get up on stage and sing just one song with pj, it would be indifference. :)
    hear my name
    take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me
    i just need to say

    I have to admit I never actually liked this song until I heard it live in Dublin and it really got me. It was definitely one of the highlights of the concert and the crowd singing was amazing.

    What a different life
    Had I not found this love with you

    love this lyric

    I'll keep takin' punches, until their will grows tired
    Had my eyes peeled both wide open, and I got a glimpse
    Of my innocence... got back my inner sense...

    I've never heard of anybody (and I mean ANYBODY - not just pealr jam fans) not loving this song immediately.

    Glad you joined the winning team finally ;)

    Right on, one of my favorite lines, if not my absolute favorite, of all time. I didn't realize how powerful and meaningful the song is until years after Vs. was released....I guess I needed to do a little more living and then that line made complete sense to me
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

    this song is amazing...the line "I will scream my lungs out til it fills this room" always makes me smile. the first time i heard this song was at a concert in 2005 and when Ed sang that line and it really did fill the huge room. the way Ed sings the studio version gives me chills, there is so much emotion pouring out of him. i cant begin to express how i feel about this song...i just dont know...

    Really powerful song... especially when it just nails exactly how you feel when you're listening to it. When I saw them play it live in Boston this year it was even better, cause you could barely hear Ed the crowd was so loud.
    And before his first step... He's off again...

    It can speak to so many different situations - and the way Ed sings it is just inspired.

    I absolutely love this song, but is the L@TG version the one with Ben Harper? If so...he ruins it for me.
