Scott Bradford: Off on a Tangent

Fading Away

Posted January 10, 2000 8:38pm ET

Would you rather live
In warm euphoria for
A moment past
Than exist in harsh
Reality…lost
Lost in isolation yet
I’ve never been alone
Silhouetted in shadows of
The doors we’ve shut
Is it enough?
Has it ever been?

Would you rather exist
Out of time, alone
Free at last
Than exist in cold
Reality…lost
Lost in freedom yet
I’ve always been a slave
Trapped within the walls
We’ve built ourselves
Was it enough?
Have we won the war?

Losing sight of just
What is real tonight
Losing touch
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away

Scott Bradford has been building web sites and using them to say what he thinks since 1995, which tended to get him in trouble with power-tripping assistant principals at the time. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Public Administration from George Mason University, but has spent most of his career (so far) working on public- and private-sector web sites. He is not a member of any political party, and brands himself an ‘independent constitutional conservative.’ In addition to holding down a day job and blogging about challenging subjects like politics, religion, and technology, Scott is also a devout Catholic, gun-owner, bike rider, and music lover with a wife and two cats.
