A Truncated Symphony

"Citizen Erased" - Muse

Break me in,
Teach us to cheat
And to lie, cover up
What shouldn't be shared?
All the truth unwinding
Scraping away
At my mind
Please stop asking me to describe him

For one moment
I wish you'd hold your stage
With no feelings at all
Open minded
I'm sure I used to be so free

Self expressed, exhausting for all
To see and to be
What you want and what you need
The truth unwinding
Scraping away
At my mind
Please stop asking me to describe

For one moment
I wish you'd hold your stage
With no feelings at all
Open minded
I'm sure I used to be so free

For one moment
I wish you'd hold your stage
With no feelings at all
Open minded
I'm sure I used to be so free

Wash me away
Clean your body of me
Erase all the memories
They will only bring us pain
And I've seen all I'll ever need

how apt.

Quasimodo - Lifehouse

you can be right
and I'll be real
honesty won't be a pain that you'll have to feel
cause I don't need your approval
to find my worth
I'm trapped inside of my own mind
afraid to open my eyes cause of what I'd find and I
don't want to live like this anymore

there goes my pain
there goes my chains
did you see them falling
because this feeling
that has no meaning

there goes the world
off of my shoulders
there goes the world
off of my back
there it goes

does it scare you that I can
be something different than you
would it make you feel more comfortable if I wasn't
you can't control me
and you can't take away from me who I am

there goes my pain
there goes my chains
did you see them falling
because this feeling
that has no meaning

there goes the world
off of my shoulders
there goes the world
off of my back
you can't change me
you can't break me

there goes the world
off of my shoulders
there goes the world
off of my back

have you ever felt
like your only comfort was your cage
you're not alone
I've felt the same as you
have you ever felt
like your secrets give you away
you're not alone
I've been there too
cause everyone is looking
and everyone is laughing but I think
everyone feels the same
everybody wants to feel ok
everybody wants to
everybody wants to feel

there goes my pain
there goes my chains
did you see them falling
because this feeling
that has no meaning

there goes the world
off of my shoulders
there goes the world
off of my back
cause I don't want it
I don't want it
you can't change me
you can't break me

there goes the world
off of my shoulders
there goes the world
off of my back
there it goes

looking back on all the things that have been said on this blog, i can't help but feel that they were probably all meaningless..
i mean, what's the point of all this anyways?
does it even mean anything to anybody?
does it serve some sort of purpose?
not even to me it doesn't..
so why bother?
i guess i always hoped i could write something that could hold some sort of meaning for someone.
guess i failed.
and this blog was just a medium to chronicle my failure.
but fear not, i'll be back trying harder next time.
that last statement kinda ruins the mood doesn't it?
well scratch that then.
who knows if i'll be back?
who knows if i'll come up with something proper; something meaningful?
most importantly, who the hell gives a fuck?

Chris was here (to chronicle my failure once again)

Go - Boys Like Girls

Little change of the heart
Little light in the dark
Little hope that you just might find
Your way up out of here
'Cause you've been hiding for days
Wasted and wasting away
But I got a little hope today
You'll face your fears

Yeah, I know it's not easy
I know that it's hard
Follow the lights to the city

Get up and go
Take a chance and be strong
Or you could spend your whole life holding on
Don't look back; just go
Take a breath, move on
Or you could spend your whole life holding on
You could spend your whole life holding on

Believe the tunnel can end
Believe your body can mend
Yeah, I know you can make it through
'Cause I believe in you
So let's go put up a fight
Let's go make everything all right
Go on take a shot
Go give it all you got

Oh, yeah, I know it's not easy
I know that it's hard
No, it's not always pretty

Get up and go
Take a chance and be strong
Or you could spend your whole life holding on
Don't look back; just go
Take a breath, move on
Or you could spend your whole life holding on
You could spend your whole life holding on

Don't wanna wake up to the telephone ring
Are you sitting down?
I need to tell you something
Enough is enough
You can stop waiting to breathe
And don't wait up for me

Get up and go
Take a chance and be strong
Or you could spend your whole life holding on
Don't look back; just go
Take a breath, move on
Or you could spend your whole life holding on

i guess i thought things would change for the better
then i laid back and lived my life
little did i realise that i would actually have to make some sort of a bloody effort
little did i realise the magnitude of such an effort
having been rudely awakened from my reverie, i resolved to take action once again
we'll see where things go from here.

on another note, i have now taken on a vow of honesty
not 'oh i did something wrong im gonna confess and take responsibility' honesty
the 'im gonna be honest to the point of being rude i dont care what you think of me or whether you hate me' kinda honesty

ive realised i care too much about hurting other people's feelings and whether or not they like me
to the point where they dont care about hurting me
this has got to stop.
now.

this is where i leave you.
whoever you are.
though i doubt that anybody even reads this crap.

and for some reason im addicted to john mayer's cover of free fallin'
