Particular

In metaphysics, particulars or individuals are usually contrasted with universals. Universals concern features that can be exemplified by various different particulars. Particulars are often seen as concrete, spatiotemporal entities as opposed to abstract entities, such as properties or numbers. There are, however, theories of abstract particulars or tropes. For example, Socrates is a particular (there's only one Socrates-the-teacher-of-Plato and one cannot make copies of him, e.g., by cloning him, without introducing new, distinct particulars). Redness, by contrast, is not a particular, because it is abstract and multiply instantiated (for example a bicycle, an apple, and a given woman's hair can all be red). In nominalist view everything is particular. Univ… more »

It's just an airport
A stop along the ground
It doesn't matter
That it's in your hometown

Or that I'm waiting
Or that I'm on my own
And no one's waiting
Waiting for me where I'm going

On a layover
And I just wanna move forward
But I can't get past the gate
I'm not even going home
But I'm getting closer
I wonder when I'll find the place
I'm told I'm headed toward

In the passage
From the place you were grown
Can't seem to manage
To leave the thought of you alone

You would've come here
To advance and retreat
To throw your hands up
In victory and in defeat

And now that we've ended
Why am I where you began?
Doing time where you did time
And I can't get away
You're baggage unattended
And I can't leave you behind
You're in my head, you're close at hand

I am trying to be patient
But I don't wanna be complacent
Here you're haunting me and I want to be free
And I'm so tired of waiting

You were here before me
Your life's been very long
It's quite a story
And it keeps going when I'm gone

Feels so impersonal
Maybe I was nothing to you
Like a terminal
Where we're all just passing through

We're all headed someplace
All we need now is a plane
I know it seems we're thrown together
Like droplets in a cloud
Not from any one place
Not until we drift overhead
Or settle down as rain

I am trying to be patient
But I don't wanna be complacent
I'll be leaving soon and I won't see you around
But I'm so tired of waiting

I don't wanna be your friend
Well maybe just a little
I don't wanna be your friend
Well maybe just a little
I'd be ready for the end
But it's only the middle

Where I'm waiting for a new life
Where I'm waiting to be alright
Where there's something bright just out of sight
Waiting in the wings for me when I take flight
