When you're young, your whole life is about the pursuit of fun, then you grow up and learn to be cautious; you could break a bone, or a heart. You look before you leap and sometimes you don't leap at all because there's not always someone there to catch you. And in life, there is no safety net. When did it stop being fun and start being scary?

This one belongs to you
And the words they take their meaning (It's all you said)
and the flame, it loses colour (It's all you said)
Take take take a while, take a while (It's all you said)
Knowing that it's far from over
This one belongs to you
Time shows us that all that ever mattered
all that ever mattered leaves us in the cold
If you ever believe this what you need
it will spin around and shatter
throw you to the floor
as it leaves us in the cold
And the dream you think I'm making
while the house I built is breaking
Take take take a while, take a while (It's all you said)
Knowing that it's far from over
this one belongs to you
Time shows us that all that ever mattered
all that ever mattered leaves us in the cold
If you ever believe this what you need
it will spin around and shatter
throw you to the floor
as it leaves us in the cold
I remember the train you came in on
Everything I want kept calling
I remember the chill that came over
Everything I love went falling
Time shows us that all that ever mattered
all that ever mattered leaves us in the cold
If you ever believe this what you need
it will spin around and shatter
throw you to the floor
as it leaves us in the cold
and the flame, it loses colour (It's all you said)
Take take take a while, take a while (It's all you said)
Knowing that it's far from over
This one belongs to you
Time shows us that all that ever mattered
all that ever mattered leaves us in the cold
If you ever believe this what you need
it will spin around and shatter
throw you to the floor
as it leaves us in the cold
And the dream you think I'm making
while the house I built is breaking
Take take take a while, take a while (It's all you said)
Knowing that it's far from over
this one belongs to you
Time shows us that all that ever mattered
all that ever mattered leaves us in the cold
If you ever believe this what you need

I remember the train you came in on

Today was a really great day for a few reasons.
1. I got to hang out with an old friend who I haven't hung out with in awhile and it went really great. i thought it might be awkward - and sometimes it's just really funny because you talk like no time has passed and start to tell a story about something like the other person was there, until you realize... Snap... they weren't there. But anyways it was really fun. We went shopping, had lunch and just hung out.
2. Leftoever cheesecake from the cheesecake factory. That's all i have to say about that.
3. Trying on Halloween costumes in the stock room of the costume shop since there was a huge line for the dressing rooms.
4. Watching a really good movie called Zodiac. You should rent it. I liked it - Lauren kinda fell asleep but it's ok because she woke up and i filled her in.
5. And this clip -
So overall - it was a spectacular Saturday.
goodnight.
you wanna piece?
Didn't think so. Didn't F-in think so.

Black and White
Life is not always black and white. There are always gray areas. I was watching something tonight and I realized that it's not always clear who is right and who is wrong. Through my eyes I see one thing, but it's possible my vision is tainted simply because they are my eyes. A sort of tunnel vision if you will. I have my own ideas of right and wrong and I think, or I would like to think, that most people share my same moral compass. Deep down I like to think that most people are inherently good. But does that make me weak? Does that make me an easy target? Inevitably, does this quality set me up for heartache? Who is to say. There is too much gray area. And as much as one would like to think that every situation has a right and wrong answer - eventually the truth will shine through and que será, será.
Goodnight.And.Good Luck

Be Careful
All the girls in the pale moonlight
All the girls with the shopping bags
All the girls with the washing rags
All the girls on the telephone
All the girls standing all alone
All the girls sitting on the wire
One by one fly into the fire
Be careful how you bend me
Be careful where you send me
Careful how you end me
Be careful with me
All the girls standing by your beds
All the girls standing on their heads
All the girls with the broken arms
All the girls with the deadly charms
All the girls in the restaurant
Pretending to be nonchalant
Funny girls on the TV shows
Close your eyes and they turn to snow
Be careful how you bend me
Be careful where you send me
Careful how you end me
Be careful with me
All the girls working overtime
Telling you everything is fine
All the girls in the beauty shops
Girls' tongues catching the raindrops
All the girls that you'll never see
Forever a mystery
All the girls with their secret ways
All the girls who have gone astray
Be careful how you bend me
Be careful where you send me
Careful how you end me
Be careful with me
Be careful how you bend me
Be careful with me

off to bed early.
this girl is sleepy.

With a banjo and a Bible and a fine tooth comb
A beautiful song by a wonderful artist. Ray LaMontagne - one of my favorites. Enjoy. (Sorry it's only a clip of the song but I think it's worth a download)
I lost all of my vanity
when I peered into the pool
I lost all of my innocence
When I fell in love with you
I never knew a man could fall so far until I landed here
Where all of my wounds they turn into gold when I kissed your hair
Come to me Hannah
Hannah won't you to come on to me
and I'll lay down this bottle of wine
If you'll just be kind to me
Ask her why she cries so loud
She Will not say a word
Eyes like ice and hands that shake
She takes what she deserves
To celebrate her emptiness
In a cold and lonely room
Sweep the floors with your long flowered dress
If you cannot find a broom
Come to me Hannah
Hannah won't you come on to me
I'll lay down this bottle of wine
If you'll just be kind to me
She's got hair that flows right down
Right down to the backs of her knees
Papa he was a preaching man
And the lord is hard to please
So she comes down from the ozark hills to these very streets to roam
With a banjo and a bible and a fine tooth comb
Come to me Hannah
Hannah won't you come on to me
and I'll lay down this bottle of wine if you just be kind to me
Now I'd walk one mile on this broken glass
to fall down at your feet
Hannah you're the queen of the street
I climb the tree withy my Hannahlee
My intentions they were pure
Oh the breeze did whip and I lost my grip
I tumbled towards the earth
Where You never would guess who it was that stood below
And his name I will never tell
But His eyes were clear
And His arms were strong
And caught me as I fell
Now come to me Hannah
Hannah won't you come on to me
and I'll lay down this bottle of wine
If you'd just be kind to me
I'd walk just one mile on broken glass
to fall down at your feet
Hannah you're the queen of the street
the queen of the street
goodnight.
