POV: Images of surviving Multiple Chemical Sensitivity

Posted on Jul 21, 2009 by Susie Collins in Blog, Media/Videos, Susie Collins

This is my new theme song: I love it! Looking at this video and listening to the lyrics through the lens of Multiple Chemical Sensitivity cuts right to my core. I love the imagery: the pond, barren landscape, lush fertile gardens, arms thrown open wide to the fresh sweet wind. “Look away through the garden of love.” At it’s core, that’s my strategy to surviving MCS.

Love is all there is. xoxo

Garden of Love

Kim-Lian (Dutch)

oh my god – look at my world crumbling apart
as I chase the wind
my life – look at my life – what will I become
where will I begin

once a thousand words that could be heard one million miles
crowded in my head — confusion filled my mind
everybody searchin’ for an answer to their prayer
we cling to what we know – the truth is never there

and the lord said – look away
look away look away look away
through the garden of love
and the lord said – look away
look away look away look away
through the garden of love

my love – you are my love — thunder in my heart
may we never part
each time I look in your eyes passion tears apart
all I thought was right

once a thousand words that could be heard one million miles
crowded in my head — confusion filled my mind
everybody searchin’ for an answer to their prayer
we cling to what we know – the truth is never there

and the lord said – look away
look away look away look away
through the garden of love
and the lord said – look away
look away look away look away
through the garden of love

and the lord said – look away
look away look away look away
through the garden of love
and the lord said – look away
look away look away look away
through the garden of love (through the garden of love)

look away (through the garden of love)
so I looked away
