These words are my heart and soul
On February 5, 2012, I made two posts: One of them analyzing shit that doesn't matter and the other were song lyrics. They were lyrics to the song "With Me" by Sum41. It had come out in 2007, but it was in 2012 that I felt the song. It eventually became the title of my LiveJournal. I would eventually meet Green Eyes one month after this post.
Ten years later and I got to see Sum 41 perform for the first time. I had already been having so much fun but I was desperately eager to hear it. And then I heard it. The opening chords. The strumming. As everyone around me screamed in excitement, I turned to Green Eyes and cried, "It's the wedding song babe!" I bawled the entire song as I truly felt the song as he held me:
I want you to know with everything I won't let this go. These words are my heart and soul. I'll hold on to this moment you know. As I bleed my heart out to show and I won't let go.
Anyone who looked me must have thought I was crazy at how hard I was crying. I tried my hardest to remember every second of that moment: The music, the feelings, Green Eyes sharing that experience with me. I think it was the best night of my life...or at least top 5.
I can't believe it: I won in life. Life is completely different 10 years later.All that crap I went through around the time I posted those lyrics--they don't matter anymore. FATE. This is my fate.
