Linkin Park's latest album

It's been a long week. Sometimes, when it feels like you have a million things going on around you, it can get draining. One of the places where I have tried to catch my breath this week has been my alone time driving back-and-forth from one destination to another in my car.

In September, I got Linkin Park's latest CD, "A Thousand Suns," and listened to it for a couple weeks on end. Then I took a break. This week, I went back to it and I have been struck by how much I enjoy several of the songs on there. One of the songs, "Iridescent," has beautiful lyrics that kind of spoke to me this week. So I thought I would share them below, maybe they will speak to you too.

When you were standing in the wake of devastation

When you were waiting on the edge of the unknown

And with the cataclysm raining down

Your insides crying, "Save me now"

You were there, impossibly alone.

Do you feel cold and lost in desperation?

You build up hope, but failures all you've known.

Remember all the sadness and frustration

And let it go.

Let it go.

And in a burst of light that blinded every angel

As if the sky had blown the heavens into stars

You felt the gravity of tempered grace

Falling into empty space

With no one there to catch you in their arms.

Do you feel cold and lost in desperation?

You build up hope, but failures all you've known.

Remember all the sadness and frustration

And let it go.

Let it go.
