What Took You So Far Away?

"I am a child
And you are the adult.
I don't know why you can't seem to see this.

Sure, I am graduating in about a month.

That still doesn't mean you can talk to me like a friend,

Over a daughter.

Don't put this pressure on me,

To move or to decide on what I want now.

I can't really take this anymore.

I miss you, but you need to treat me like your daughter,

And stop pushing me to decide what I want.

There is a difference between 17 and 40, you know."

Do You Ever Sit And Wonder?

"So, sure, I could just close my eyes.
Yeah, sure, trace and memorize,
But can you go back once you know.

You don't know me,
You don't know me at all,
You don't know me
You don't know me,

At all.

I am still in disbelief over what I did.

I can't believe I had the guts for that.

A lot of people are probably surprised at it.

But it is so great to hear that more people

Are inspired,

Rather than judgemental.

I feel like I have come leaps and bounds

From being in the place I was

When all these things happened.

The words I was speaking feel

More true this time around."

This Is How It Works

"No, this is how it works.
You peer inside yourself,
You take the things you like,
And try to love the things you took.

And then,

You take that love you made,
And stick it into some,
Someone else's heart.
Pumping someone else's blood.

And walking arm in arm,
You hope it don't get harmed.
But,

Even if it does,

You'll just do it all again.

Regina Spektor always has such a good message.

Maybe that's why you like her so much, too."

Sort Of Wonder Why No One Said A Word.

"Disappointment seems like it is bound to happen on a daily basis.

I don't want to be someone who disappoints.

That life doesn't seems over glamorous to me.

It is funny when you can tell.

You can tell when it is over."
