It's been a long day
and I'm finnally getting home
I'm so ready for a show
and I'm ready to get in bed
and fall asleep

7pm
class has finally finished
tigers game is still going on
and it's ties at four-four
I hope they win it
hope they make it too the playoffs

9pm
tigers game is still going on
now tigers are up five to four
maybe they'll win it all
come on guys
lets get three quick outs to end this game

9:20pm
the twins scored
that can't be good
please hold them off
and score a run in the next inning
please win this game

9:40
The twins scored
and the tigers didn't
and so that's that
the game is over
the tigers aren't in the playoffs
when the blew an eight game lead

Finally home
jump in the shower
let the water wash over me
wash away the pain of loosing against to the twins
I'll go to bed and things will be better tomarrow

We've been together for quite some time
and you've been there when I needed you
I've been there when you needed me
I've known you since I was ten
you were two
but that didn't mean we couldn't be friends
we were friends from the start
we were friends as soon as we meet

Speeding down this road
all I can think of is the horizon
and of who I was
and the life I can sense is out there waiting for me

I'm miles from everything I've grown up with
yet my eyes are on what lies ahead
the horizon I can only barley see
the only thing still with me on this road
to my new life
is you, my life long friend
you're the only thing with me that has been constant

Speeding down this road
all I can think of is the horizon
and of who I was
and the life I can sense is out there waiting for me

I look back once
but don't look back again
knowing that that's when I wounder if I'm in the right place
wounder if I'm doing the right thing
instead of looking back at the life I once had
I look at you, who is standing at my side
and who is supporting me all the way

And you are there every time I need you
You're always at my side
when you least expect
opportunity walks through the door
and that's when it hits me-this is my chance
my chance to spread my wings
see things from a different view
see you chasing after me down on the ground
as I fly through the air

In a way I've lost you
as I move on with my life
even though you've been with me this long
even though you're still there next to me
even though you're bellow me, chasing me down as I fly through the air
I guess it's time to let go
let things happen when they happen

why aren't you holding me now
why are you so far from me
why aren't you at my side
where are you when I need you the most
are you just a figment of my imagination
or are you real
why am I alone
why am I so alone?
I've had mixed results
in what I've tried to do
and ended up doing
I guess that's to be expected
I really need to get my head on straight
so things don't get so mixed up

After I crash and burn
I'll come out,
and then I'll shine like the sun
and I won't give up, even though there aren't any guarantees that I'll succeed
but why give up,
there's always tomorrow to try again

here I go
I can't back down
I have to go in
and do this; head into the unknown

I could crash and burn in my attempt
to find myself in this world
where I seem to have lost myself
and I am ready to crash and burn
after all that seems to be how I'll find myself
and that's okay with me

After I crash and burn
I'll come out,
and then I'll shine like the sun
and I won't give up, even though there aren't any guarantees that I'll succeed
but why give up,
there's always tomorrow to try again

it seemed so scary when I would crash and burn when I was younger
but now it seems like one possibility of how to find myself in this world
sure I've had mixed results in everything I've done
but isn't that normal for some?

After I crash and burn
I'll come out,
and then I'll shine like the sun
and I won't give up, even though there aren't any guarantees that I'll succeed
but why give up,
there's always tomorrow to try again

there's always tomorrow
I can try again tomorrow if it doesn't work today
I can try again tomorrow if things don't work out today
I can try again tomorrow
'cause there's always tomorrow
there's always tomorrow
there's always tomorrow


I thought I would start a new series of posts here. I wanted to get back to doing this kind of post again. A while ago I was posting a series of blogs that were just poems/lyrics for songs. I wanted to get back to this for several reasons that I won't go into completley, but I thought it might be interusting to see progression of my life in these lyrics/poems.
