there ain't no reason things are this way

it's how they've always been and it tends to stay
i can't explain why we live this way, we do it everyday

sometimes, i wish i could my life over again. i say i don't believe in regrets. but just change a couple of things. take back some things. do some things. and yet, i know no one on this earth has the power to do that.

i realized today there is no ending to my spite. no matter what someone does to try to gain back my trust, it's never going to be the same. so advice to you - don't screw things up. easier said than done, of course. like almost everything in life. or perhaps, i could be more forgiving. another thing i wish i could do. it's like i can never fully let anything go no matter how much i tell myself i can. everything is hanging by strings in the back of my mind. indestructible strings of steel. it's amazing how they haven't tangled together yet.

i used to think i was a relatively good person. but looking deeper, i really am not that great. no better than any druggie, hooker, or murderer. add a little more self-control and self respect. otherwise, i am no better than them. who are we to judge? don't get me wrong, i still believe that people are able to be horrible human beings. but that's getting off topic.

i just don't like myself right now.

people walk a tight rope
on a razor's edge
carrying their hurt and hatred and weapons
it could be a bomb or a bullet or a pen
or a thought or a word or a sentence

=\ It sounds poetic and sad but it also sounds very real.

I think I could relate to that sometimes.

Hope things turn up better soon.

Regret's fine...
I mean, sure, you can't really go back and change it, but thats not the point of it.
More importantly, you know what not to do next time the opportunity presents itself..

and woooooo brett dennen
