(no subject)
things for me are going so well.
I am so happy with my friends, and my work, and my love life for the first time in what seems like a while.
So that's a bonus.
I do, though, have a friend I consider to be pretty close who is going through a tough time right now
and I was thinking about what to do to help him and I know that nothing can reach him like words/music can.
So this is for him.
You've been reading too far into this insane happening
for too long and it's starting to affect the way you think.
You've got a fan in me, and I'm not standing here alone
When this is over and all is said and done
she'll be hitting herself because she tossed you away
make your thoughts nicer please for just one more day
because I think I know you better than you know yourself
I can see some fire. I can see some fire. but You think you're someone else.
I can see compassion in a person so terribly shy.
And I can see some honesty so full it makes you cry.
I can relate to a heart that doesn't want to die
not knowing if he really didn't let things pass him by.
you'll be hitting yourself if you toss yourself away
I don't think you can see what you have to offer every day
I really hope you realize that you've got no debts to pay.
You need to feel that fire. You need to feel the fire that we all see every day.
and maybe I am wrong, although that would be rare
and maybe you should pull your shaky hands from your hair
hang your arms down by your side and just breathe
and take a few seconds to inhale some relief
nothing is as screwed up as you think
and all of your ideas that are sitting on the brink
are waiting and praying for that one final hit
that pushes you running as you work til you're sick
towards that something you don't yet know is yours
the great thing you're meant to take off towards
and as you're freely lapping through the sky
I'll shout to the distance between you and I
Please don't forget this, wherever you go
try and remember that I told you so.
