I used to be quite sceptical about everything – always seeing the worst in people and circumstances. Now, although i still see it, I brush it aside, and find the poisitive aspects of everything. Every day seems more worthwhile this way.

I don’t know why I like this song so much. I first properly discovered it at the end of my first term at uni, and now it reminds me of sitting in my room, just about to go to bed, thinking through the day, who I met, who I talked to, what I did.
The lyrics are meant to be applied to a single person, I think. For me, it’s all the people at uni.
