Something in Common
« on: September 12, 2004, 01:30:31 pm »
If you could see how much I regret
Falling away from you would things be different?
I don't understand the choices I make
And the voices inside me just lead to mistakes
But I'm sorry now
Life is too short and it's over now
To cry about the past is crazy
To sit by yourself and think maybe
If I had done this different he'd still be here?
Then my conscience would be clear again
I wonder when
You'll ask me to come back
You always have before, cut me a little slack
Ruining us is the worst that I've done
Destroying our trust when you've been the only one
To see me for me even though I have flaws
I'm a bit too quick to share my thoughts
And my heart is so bitter and my skin is so thick
And I always leave my empty plate in the sink
Never in the washer
And you thought I was the answer to your prayers

Everyone's a little fucked up sometimes
We all treat each other too rough sometimes
It's hard to remember that no one is perfect
And to give them all the respect they deserve
But at the end of the day when we look in the mirror
The greatest lesson of all becomes a bit clearer
Even though you're fucked, I am too
So we have something in common, me and you

I know we'll fight the night away
Saying things we "need" to say
I'll whine that you're too good for me
You're something that I'll never be
And then I'll say I'm so crazy it hurts
And you'll scream back that it wounds you the worst
When I slam on myself 'cause it reflects off of you
And why you choose the people you do
You always reach out your hand
And I never understand
I'm so messed up in my head
That I think if I were dead
Things would be better
You'd be better off without me
Then you tell me I'm so blind
And I deserve a piece of your mind
And you say

Everyone's a little fucked up sometimes
We all treat each other too rough sometimes
It's hard to remember that no one is perfect
And to give them all the respect they deserve
But at the end of the day when we look in the mirror
The greatest lesson of all becomes a bit clearer
Even though you're fucked, I am too
So we have something in common, me and you

It scares me to think where I'd be without you
It scares me to think of the things that I'd do
If I didn't have you to say you're fucked up, too

at least i can say
i was not afraid
i loved you all the way
i'd pick the fool any day.

The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success.

I don't really look at it as a negative thing. The truth of the matter is that everyone IS fucked up sometimes, and we need to remember that one of us is not the only person in the world who makes mistakes. It's finding comfort in knowing that you're not alone when you mess up, everyone's been there.

I know that and I can totally relate. It's a very sad song/poem...*see PM* :wink:
