So maybe I try too hard
But its all because of this desire
I just wanna be liked, I just wanna be funny.
Looks like the jokes on me
So call me captain backfire
Im never speaking up again it only hurts me.
Id rather be a mystery than she (he) desert me.
Oh Im never speaking up again
Starting now
- My Stupid Mouth, John Mayer
I’ve got some problems but we’ve got ten dollars
That’s enough to get us wasted before the night is over
These past five days I’ve been completely sober
But tonight I’m getting ripped wide open
- Knights of the Island Counter, Dave Melillo
Use me as you will
Pull my strings just for a thrill
And I know I'll be okay
Though my skies are turning gray
- My Guardian Angel, Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
And your slowly shaking finger tips
Show that your scared like me
So let's pretend we're alone
And I know you may be scared
And I know were unprepared but I don't care
- Vulnerable, Secondhand Serenade
Eighteen years old legally makes you an adult, right? Then how come I'm still a child - a little girl trapped in what society wants me to turn into? Truthfully, I'm lost. I don't know where I'm going to be in ten years and for that matter, I'm not ready to even think about what I'm going to be doing for the rest of my life. Sometimes, I wish I could just fast forward ten years from now and for just a moment, see what life is like. See who I'm with and how I live. See where I live and what friends are still by my side. I could see the adult I have become. I wish I could go back and life a minute or two when I was carefree and young. I didn't care what people thought and always thought I never would. It's funny how times change and the person inside of you does too.
Life is like a scar. A scar is the result of pain - physical and emotional. Yet, when it heals, you can pinch it and poke it and there is no feeling. We've gone numb. In life we get so used to overcoming the same dreadful obsticles that in the end, we have gone numb to how we react to them. Yet, the mark will remain forever - showing you where you have been and what boundries you have overcome. Scars are timelines. They can tell an entire story without a word being spoken.
My voice seems to be gone. Is it because I talk too much, or because you took my breath away?
