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

I'm standing under a white flag

i miss j1.

i thought fate brought us together for a good reason.

maybe it is,
but i dont want to accept it,
yet it is already done.

memories.

reading joshua foer's moonwalking with einstein.
about one third done already,
i'm guessing ill be at least half done tonight.

memories really bring out the regret in our lives,
but without memories we have no lives in the first place.

when i enlist i shall learn how to be optimistic.
and after POP, i shall have learnt that we should be grateful for what we have now, not what we could have.

but fuck man this sucks.
