the voices and the songs

Sometimes, I get so lost in the voices in my mind (internal dialog, not a psychiatric episode... mostly), that I forget the rest of the world. I don't see the TV, or hear the music, or the other people. I'm not sure if this is a good or a bad thing.

Sometimes, I get so lost in the music (either in my head or for real), that I can't hear the voices. I'm guessing... If I could ever find a balance between those two.. It might be something.

I'm not quite sure what, but something.
