Written 2013-2014

lyrics

I wrote in my mind when I was young the rules set for love,
wasting my time.
I tried to relate, affection and hate, savage and true.

It's not what drives a boy insane it's the nuances in vain
That make him go mad, chasing his dream.
With the courage to understand, how to act human,
And push for a new plan

When I was ten I found a bag of tricks
I thought I had everything but I needed a fix
I thought I'd traverse traverse myself to West Virginy
Get on top of that cliff and stare back at the city.
That spot never seemed to get older
But my friends sure did and they sure grew colder.
Why can't I find a place where I can just stick
You know I thought I found the way.

Plans may never work out
But along the way you'll shout
'Bout the friendships you made,
no regrets, memories to save.
You'll find that those around, who've acted like the clowns
Have always played the fool.

The fool, the one taking all he can
Trashing his best friend,
'Fore he acts human, chasing his dream.
Trying to relate, affection and hate,savage and true.

Now everything seems addressed with a prompt
You know I'd write what i want so I could give what I have to offer
But what I want and what is 'sposedly mine
Is not one in the same I just want out of these times.

I have been told that I must press onward
Act contingent upon what the other people offer.
But I think I'd rather throw my life away
Than to make a decision that is dead wrong anyway.
