Standing outside the fire: welkom!

"standing outside the fire", zo zie ik er vaak uit. Laats zei Freddie het nog: "heb je het wel naar je zin? Dat kan ik niet goed aan je zien"

Ik sta vaak wat achteraf, buiten de groep toe te kijken, te observeren, te genieten. Toen ik het onderstaande lied voor het eerst hoorde klikte er iets bij me: dit ben ik! Daarom is het ook mijn eerste blog post, en de titel van mijn blog.. Een blog over mij, mijn werk, vakantie, mijn autisme... en verder? Wie weet....

We call them cool
Those hearts that have no scars to show
The ones that never do let go
And risk the tables being turned

We call them fools
Who have to dance within the flame
Who chance the sorrow and the shame
That always comes with getting burned

But you've got to be tough when consumed by desire
'Cause it's not enough just to stand outside the fire

We call them strong
Those who can face this world alone
Who seem to get by on their own
Those who will never take the fall

We call them weak
Who are unable to resist
The slightest chance love might exist
And for that forsake it all

They're so hell-bent on giving ,walking a wire
Convinced it's not living if you stand outside the fire

Standing outside the fire
Standing outside the fire
Life is not tried, it is merely survived
If you're standing outside the fire

There's this love that is burning
Deep in my soul
Constantly yearning to get out of control
Wanting to fly higher and higher
I can't abide
Standing outside the fire

Standing outside the fire
Standing ouside the fire
Life is not tried, it is merely survived
If you're standing outside the fire

Standing outside the fire
Standing outside the fire
Life is not tried, it is merely survived
If you're standing outside the fire
