Gone

My words don't come out right, so tonight music will be my voice.

"I know you're gone,
I know you're leaving me
behind your dreams,
behind your prayers."
"I'm on my own now
What do I see,
what do I feel,
what do I love?"
_________________________
"Tear out your hair
if you can't bear any more
It's the same as yesterday
It stays around,
locks the door
See, now here is the fear
that you live with every year
And you wonder if you'll make it out alive"
"Take a minute to reflect in your own way
Take your time and connect in your own way"
"And even though you get along somehow
You're messing up now in your own way, baby"
"You were told not to relate
Or reveal the feelings that could only more complicate
You turned to stone just to feel
Somehow permanent & real
And you hate all those who’d ever dare remind"

"and when I fall down on my face am I home?"
____________________________
"I don't care about these permanencies
When you wannna stop, just go"
"I wanna go mad for a minute
I just wanna be in it"
"Cause I don't wanna be black,
don't wanna be white
Don't wanna be obvious
Making you a promise that I'll go out swinging"
"And even when the complications settle in
And even when I try to put it in its place
And even when the glue around me doesn't stick
And all the walls around me crumble brick by brick"
"And I wanna go mad, I wanna go mad
I wanna go mad for a minute
I just wanna be in it, I do"
______________________________
"Unravel me
a distant cord
on the outside is forgotten
a constant need"
________________________________
"Though i've tried,
i've fallen
I have sunk so low
I messed up"
"We believe that we can change ourselves
The past can be undone
But we carry on our backs the burden
Time always reveals
In the lonely light of morning
In the wound that would not heal
It's the bitter taste
of losing everything i've held so dear"
"Heaven bend to take my hand
I've nowhere left to turn
I've lost to those i thought were friends
To everyone i know"

Wishing...

I wish I could just fast forward to about 2 1/2 days from now so that I was just at the beach with my family, soaking up the sun and not having a care in the world about anything...about jobs, about school, about how I am going to beable to afford gas next month with barely any income...about cleaning, about John who is moving to Georgia and I probably won't see him untill next summer...about boys, the lack there off, whether or not I care about that...about everything. But, sadly...I can't. I have to sit out tomarrow, the day after, and the next morning before I can even start all of that forgetting.

I am mostly packed, and my room (which was supposed to be 100% clean before I left for the beach) is now even more of a mess than it was before I did laundry and packed. I still have to go to old navy and (hopefully) get 2 pair of jeans, because I currently only have one pair that you can't see my ass in. How I am supposed to easily afford that...not sure. I have to go buy all of my school books tomarrow, which is going to be about $500. How I am supposed to afford that at all...not sure. Currently, as I look at it, after books, gas for the trip and back, and clothing for school, I will be left with about $140 to my name. And I am supposed to be getting my tattoo within the month, which is going to cost about $150.
*Sigh*
And so, I am left wishing that it were 2 1/2 days from now so that I can stop caring about all of this for about 6 or so days.

Breathe...

"'Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button, girl.
So cradle your head in your hands
And breathe..."

I know these words, front to back, inside and out...and yet, they still catch me off guard and smack reality in my face. So I knew that peace wasn't going to last long...and it didn't. I am now trying to get rid of the horrible damage I have done to my room over the last 3-4 months in about 2-3 days inbetween working and getting ready for school and seeing some of my friends for the last time in probly 5 months. I am also on a very very tight spending limit, which isn't very nice when I have to buy all of my textbooks within the week which is going to be about $500. And to top it all off the dryer has just decided that it is going to die when I have one load of wet laundry in it and another in the washer machine, so I just hung up 2 full wet loads of laundry to dry.
I know I'm complaining and I shouldn't, I should just shut up and deal with it...
so I'm breathing... or atleast trying to.
