Two Songs

This song made me cry; a hollow pain burning its way down my cheeks amidst the casual ignorance of a public bus. Nobody knew, nobody would have known from the look on my face.


You think your days are uneventful
And no one ever thinks about you
She goes her own way
She goes her own way

You think your days are ordinary
And no one ever thinks about you
But we're all the same
And she can hardly breathe without you

She says she has no time
For you now
She says she has no time

You think about the lonely people
Or think about the day she found you
Or lie to yourself
And see it all dissolve around you

She says she has no time
For you now
She says she has no time
For you now
She says she has no time

Lonely people
Don't go downwards
And my heart opens
Up to you

When she says she has no time
For you now
She says she has no time
For you now
She says she has no time

===============================================

This song just made me sit up and listen. Maybe there is hope yet. Something from Maroon 5


After school, walking home
Fresh dirt under my fingernails
I can smell hot asphalt
Come screech to a halt to let me pass

And I can't remember what
Life was through photographs
And try to recreate images
Life gives us from the past

Sometimes it's a sad song
But I cannot forget
Refuse to regret
So glad I met you
Take my breath away
Make everyday
With all of the pain that i've gone through

And mama I've been crying
Cos things ain't how they used to be
She said, the battle is almost won
And we're only seven miles from the sun

Moving on down my street
See people I won't ever meet
I think of her, take a breath
Feel the beat in the rhythm of my step

Sometimes it's a sad song
But I cannot forget
Refuse to regret
So glad I met you
Take my breath away
Make everyday
With all of the pain that i've gone through

And mama I've been crying
Cos things ain't how they used to be
She said, the battle is almost won
And we're only seven miles from the sun

Rhythm of her conversation
The perfection of her creation
The sex she slipped into my coffee
The way she felt when she first saw me

Hate to love and love to hate her
Like a broken record player
Back and forth and here and on
And on and on and on and on

I cannot forget
Refuse to regret
So glad I met you
Take my breath away
Make everydayWith all of the pain that i've gone through

And mama I've been crying
Cos things ain't how they used to be
She said, the battle is almost won
And we're only seven miles from the sun

===========================================

While some people feel that I think too much, just as many people simply don't think enough.

I've made you a promise to grow with you.

I guess I've been trying to keep an eye out for us in the things we do. Sometimes it helps, but at other times it hinders because I become too cautious to make decisions. I had become so worried that I'd loose you to your work, and that we could simply come crumbling down.

That's the reason why I had not dived into mine. Because I used to be just like that, and had lost several things dear to me.

You mean more to me than I could hope to tell you. "That we communicate," is all I asked for. It too, was what we agreed on.

Both you and I would say: "I love you." Let us make it truely happen.
