The Places You Have Come To Fear The Most
By Dashboard Confessional
see related

so this is the way it's meant to be
even though it hurts unbelievably
i know that somehow, someday
i'll get used to it and it'll be ok
i wonder if i will always know you
and if you'll always know me too
i feel i'm losing you, you're pulling away
you're done with me, there's nothing to say
my heart it won't stop breakin' apart
and i wish i could go back to the start
maybe i could save myself this pain
but then it would all be in vain
i can't forget the times with you
but i've never really wanted to
i still hope that maybe it isn't true
that someday you'll love me too

stayed up all night writing...just writing...and thinking too i guess....it was relaxing and calming in a way...i want to see garden state right now....and i want all of this to go away...

Secret Window

no matter how hard it may be to accept it at times, it's true - God knows what is best for each and every one of us....i believe that where i am right now in my life is exactly where God wants me to be....there are no coincidences in this life - whatever happens, happens for a reason....and if something's meant to be, it will be, and if it's not meant to be, it won't be.....i trust God....

well, for no particular reason, i've decided to retire this xanga site and start a new one.....gotta keep things fresh i always say - not really but whatever....

so right now i'm on a cruise ship called "The Majesty of the Seas" and we're docked at Nassau, Bahamas - this morning i went scuba diving - it was very cool - and i'm about to go out on the deck and see if i can see some stars....i'm having a lot of fun - i can't remember the last time i had this much fun on a family vacation.....but i do miss home - when i get home, i'll be ready to stay in grand rapids for awhile - this summer has been amazing - that's for sure - i just miss you all a lot.....i hope your summers are going fantastically super  - in the words of a taxi driver i rode with today: "may the best come to you"

I Don't Mind by The Tobasco Donkeys

Well I am looking
I am searching
I have found
Near the ground
My soul, myself
Beneath this trail

There's no other place I'd rather be
Can't you see me out here walking, in the rain and hail
The purpose of life it seems to me
Is not to take yourself too seriously

I wouldn't wanna be an old man
Sitting in an office building someplace far away
Worry on my face

Well you can take my car, my stereo, my little money
Leave me with nothing but my trail family
Take my dress-up clothes, my cheap cologne, my college loans
I don't mind, I don't mind

Well if that taxman comes lookin'
I'm ten thousand feet cooking up some oatmeal
Or some rice and beans

I worship the spirit that doesn't just look down
He looks up and through and all around
Find Him in the rocks and trees

Cause there's no reason to pray
When you wake up everyday
To the sunrise over Cito Peak

So find some ground, lace up your boots
Start walking and you will find reason
Enough reason to believe

Well you can drop your worries at the parking lot
Away down in the city where the sun burns hot
Although civilization is a nice place to visit
I wouldn't wanna live there

Just one final paragraph of advice
Don't burn yourselves out, be as I am
It's not enough to fight for the land
It's even more important to enjoy it while you can
While it's still here

So get out there and hunt and fish and mess around
Ramble out yonder, explore the woods, encounter the grizz
Climb the mountains, bag the peaks, run the rivers, breath deep
That yet sweet, lucid air

Sit quiet for awhile, contemplate the precious stillness
That mystery and awesome space
Enjoy yourself, keep your brain in your head
And your head attached to your body
Your body active and alive

And I promise you this much
I promise you this one sweet victory
Over our enemies
Over those deskbound people with their hearts in a box
And their eyes hypnotized by calculators

I promise you this one sweet victory...
YOU"LL OUTLIVE THE BASTARDS!
