The Fray - Absolute

Ive seen this one before, the girl she gets away
Everybody knows it but no one tries to stop it
Cause she barely even knows him but if she could see inside
Everything is quiet as she waits to tell him who she is

Is this all we get to be absolute

Quiet but Im sure there is something here
Tell me everything cause I want to hear

Its a kiss sits upon on her lips that waits for planes and battle ships
She wants to be a dancer and he has got a picture
On his wall and its a sailor in a new port every night
Yet man was born to trouble like sparks fly upwards innocent

Is this all we get to be absolute

Quiet but Im sure there is something here
Tell me everything cause I want to hear

All we are and all we want
40 years come and gone
All we are in photographs
Will never be taken

Quiet but Im sure there is something here
Tell me everything cause I want you here
Quiet but Im sure there is something here
Tell me everything cause I want to hear

we always hope for things that dont exist.
I'm standing under a white flag

24 April 10

go find meaning to your life to live on, not look back.

as i look back at my older posts before vjc,
i find them rather meaningless compared to what is happening now.
secondary school didnt hold as much meaning as JC.
school wasnt just 'lets try to pass the day off in a disciplined manner' anymore.
we no longer have to follow rules.
we have the freedom to choose.
freedom to listen.
freedom to study.

maybe its that reason
that everything is happening so quickly that you have no time to breathe,

and even though im breathing now,
i know the force will recoil sooner or later.
and it'll recoil badly.

im grateful for everything that happened to me so far.
yes, even strings.
at least it allows me to get pulled back to my non-breathing-ideal-situation.

im happy, very much contented that i've met every single new person or face in vjc.
especially you.
and as i walk this thin stretch of road with many colours around me,
as i follow the colour of choice,
i know
that the thin line will only either get bigger,
or disappear into a deep deep deep hole.

thank you for everything.
at least for now,
im optimistic.
a little.
shaky optimism.

ill probably try to catch up on everything in these few weeks.
