Just one more...
Someday, they'll find your small-town world
On a big-town avenue...
Gonna make you like the way they talk,
When they're talking to you.
Gonna make you break out of your shell...
'Cause they tell you to.
Gonna make you like the way they lie...
Better than the truth.
They'll tell you everthing
You wanted someone else to say.
They're gonna break your heart, yeah.
From what I've seen,
You're just one more hand-me-down.
'Cause no one's tried to give you
What you need...
So lay all your troubles down.
I am with you, now.
Somebody oughta' take you in,
Try to make you love again...
Try to make you like the way they feel
When they're under your skin.
Never once do you think that they would lie,
When they're holding you.
Then you wonder why they haven't called
When they said they'd call you...
You'll start to wonder
If you're ever gonna make it by.
You'll start to think
You were born blind.
From what I've seen,
You're just one more hand-me-down...
'Cause no one's tried to give you
What you need.
So lay all your troubles down.
I am with you, now.
I'm here for the hard times,
The straight-to-your-heart times.
When living ain't easy,
You can stand up against me...
And maybe rely on me...
And cry on me, yeah.
Someday, they'll open up your world...
Shake you down to the drawing board...
Do their best to change you.
They still can't erase you.
From what I've seen,
You're just one more hand-me-down...
'Cause no one's tried to give you
What you need.

I am with you, now,
Lay them down on me.
You're just one more hand-me-down,
And all those nights don't give you
What you need.
So lay all your troubles down...
On me.
Hm. Look. Bailey's whining again.
Naw, I'm not that bad, really. I'm fairly pleased right now. Just purchased three tickets for Memphis in May from that stupid TicketMaster 'site. It hates me, with all its extra charging for "convenience"...psht. I would rather just get 'em at the gate, but it's so much more. -shrug-
160 bucks, sheesh.
Anyway...I dunno what's up with me right now. My eyes are burning...that hurts quite a bit, but not enough to be whine-worthy.
Had a good cry today in the car. Needed it. Felt extremely good.
Waiting on the printer to finish spitting out the tickets for Mandy, Lezli, and myself, and just...thinking about a few things.
Quick question...when you're gone...will you miss me as much as I'm gonna miss you? I can tell myself any number of times that you'll be back, you'll be back, you'll be back...but you're not coming back. Just like a lot of other people didn't come back.
Not comparing you to anyone. Just...really on my mind how much it's going to take to deal with this.
For me and for you.
I think...actually I don't think, I know I would be able to deal, but for one thing...I've gotten far too used to seeing you, in person, almost every day. Not even for anything other than to talk to you without having to hold a phone to my face.
It's not even anything physical I need, but...reassurance that you're not going to forget about me.
You know I'm stupid and insecure and clingy as fucking velcro.
And far too paranoid, I know, I'm sorry.
...Okay.
I'm going to shut up now, since I told you not to mention it...but feel free to reply, 'kay?
'Cause this is really bothering me...
And for ten people out there...here's a few messages, in no particular order. (Guess who?)
1. I love you.
2. I heart you, matey.
3. Miss you, but too stubborn to say it.
4. Miss you, too, and you know it.
5. Miss you (and your support) a lot more than I could possibly say here.
6. Sad that I never got to know you more.
7. Love you and never change for anyone.
8. I love you, I miss you, you are an amazing artist, person, and friend.
9. You still mad at me?
10. Forgive me, no AIM...but I miss you, too.
Okay, enough of that. Printer's so slow. Arrrgh.
-bashes head on desk-
Well...work tomorrow at 7 AM. So I'm gonna go in a bit. Gotta get to Wally World for dad, and...various other crap.
Love you all, no matter how harsh I am at times.
