This is not the end
This is just the beginning
And don't you know that everything we want
Is within our reach at fingertips length
We fought nonstop to make these nights our own
Now no one can take them away
Hands in the air (hands in the air)
No one make a sound (no one make a sound)
While you're in despair, we'll have our ears to the ground
Listening for the pulse that just might drive these hearts tonight
And I know we won't make it out alive
We could have had it all
Our backs against the wall
Our eyes blindfolded tight
Living what they call life
(We could) We could have had it all
(Our backs) Our backs against the wall
(Our eyes) Our eyes blindfolded tight
Hands in the air (hands in the air)
No one make a sound (no one make a sound)
While you're in despair, we'll have our ears to the ground
Listening for the pulse that just might drive these hearts tonight
And I know we won't make it out alive
We won't make it out alive
When you burn down these bridges
And you build up these walls
And you tore out these pages
And there's nothing left at all
And when that day comes
And we're all still here
Will you be waiting?
Will you be waiting?
Hands in the air (hands in the air)
No one make a sound (no one make a sound)
While you're in despair, we'll have our ears to the ground
Listening for the pulse that just might drive these hearts tonight
And I know we won't make it out alive
And I know we won't make it out alive

and by and by and through the years..things you taught me through the years
remembering things can be fun. that is only if it's a good memory. or else your thoughts can totally go down the drain.
"remember to breathe"
so here's to the memories
that was fun
next we have: a traveler's journal
wick ran as fast as he could. he dared not look behind, for fear of stopping to look at what used to be his home
they had come not but a fortnight ago. them and their magics. at first it had seemed like they would only be here for a day or two. but then more and more of them came. that's when we started to get worried.
my father was killed the third day they were here. he died before he could turn around and run. all he wanted to do was take one of their books.
those books contained magic spells. spells of great power,spells of love, and spells of hate. they were created before the turn of the century. before the lord of darkness had taken over.
nobody knew of this island during the great war. it was created for the sole purpose to protect the only remaining books. those books had held information of before the turn of the century. they held histories of cultures and languages that were destroyed during the war. that's what wick's job had been. to learn about those histories, and to teach others so that they could also learn of the peoples who had created this world.
wick dodged a falling rock.
if only i could go back in history to change this, if only

they said
she sat in the corner
as tears rolled down
he came to her and asked her
will everything be okay
she told him to go away
with a smile on her face
he wondered what was with her
as he walked away
for it could not be denied
she turned and called to him
as the smile was replaced
he turned to face her
he knew this couldn't wait
she started to stand
as she wiped her tears
he walked toward her
he showed his fear
for it could not be denied
she cleared her throat
as she touched his face
he turned away
he knew this was not the place
she silently wept
as she reached for him
he felt the pain
he knew she felt
for it could not be denied
she hung her head
as she ran away
he turned to speak
he knew she was gone
she ran for miles
as she headed for the beach
he chased after her
he knew it was too late
for it could not be denied
she climed the stairs
as she knew where it was
he screamed at her
he knew it was the end
she opened the drawer
as she held it high
he stared at her silently
he had to stop her
for it could not be denied
she says to him
and the words slip out
he says to her
hold my hand
she says to him
and the tears stream again
he says to her
please don't cry
she says to him
and please don't tell
he says to her
this is hell
she says to him
and this is the end
he says to her
friend
for it could not be denied
she grabs the gun
as she lifts it high
he stares at her eyes
he cries
she pulls the trigger
as she falls down
he screams in pain
he never wanted this
she stares into his lifeless eyes
as she wonders why
she pulls a second time
as he not alone dies
for it would not be denied
for it would not be denied
she became a casualty of society
he never wanted to become a victim of the conformity
as tears rolled down
he came to her and asked her
will everything be okay
she told him to go away
with a smile on her face
he wondered what was with her
as he walked away
for it could not be denied
she turned and called to him
as the smile was replaced

trios
lately it's things have been happening in multiples..
mainly 3's
it started with the television breaking..ya..that meant no more cartoons..i like cartoons
the next thing that brokeded..was the fridge..i'm not gonna try to spell the whole word..cause i know i'll get it wrong, then get razzed about it later..so that meant no more ice cream
and finally the last thing..the icing on the cake if you may call it..the computer..
here's how the story goes:
i'm at steves, making a movie, it's 3:00 in the afternoon..the afternoon of sunday, april 2, 2006. the telephone rings, steve tells me it's my mom. i thought it was just a phone call to secure my evening ride from my present quarters the the front lines. well was i wrong, and i was wrong. here's what she said, and i quote:
"brent. what time do i need to pick you up to redo your project day?"
"what are you talking about?"
"the computer crashed and we lost everything"
"crap"
"yes i know, ill be coming at 4."
"fine"
*click*
right, so the t.v...fridge...and computer broke all in a span of a 2 week period..what the crap...!
but enough of the depressing stuff..
cause no one really wants to hear about that..
so...
i have a game for you all to play..but that will be coming later..
so for now it's goodbye
and thank you

tears and rain - james blunt
i wish i could surrender my soul;
shed the clothes that become my skin;
see a liar that burns within my needing.
how i wish i'd chosen darkness from cold.
how i wish i'd screamed out loud,
instead i've found no meaning.
i guess it's time i run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
all pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
i've heard what they say, but i'm not here for trouble.
it's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.
i wish i could walk through the doors of my mind;
hold memory close at hand,
help me understand the years.
i wish i could choose between Heaven and Hell.
i wish i would save my soul.
i'm so cold from fear.
i guess it's time i run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
all pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
i've heard what they say, but i'm not here for trouble.
far, far away; find comfort in pain.
all pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
it's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.
tears and rain
far, far away;find comfort in pain
all pleasures the same: it just keeps me from trouble
it's more than just words; it's just tears and rain
really..is it just tears and rain?
shed the clothes that become my skin;
see a liar that burns within my needing.
how i wish i'd chosen darkness from cold.
how i wish i'd screamed out loud,
instead i've found no meaning.
i guess it's time i run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
all pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.

i find that love is a complicated subject. and only those who truly know it, can handle it's up's and downs. don't follow their lead, cause you never know how the story ends. i'm just getting up for the letdown..
thanks for the intro to cartel
.................................................................................................................................
for i'm an underatedoverachiever...so now i leave to go to those places that aren't here.
i hate complicated subjects..
"someday you'll sing it out loud, someday this will make you proud"
Say Anything (Else)-Cartel
so i guess it's time to leave this place, with only some words of..well there just words..
secret's kill
truth bleeds
over the hill
until i find you
a withered rose
all but dead
pedals falling
until i find you
frosty mornings
red-lit skies
lonely nights
until i find you
"even the best fall down sometime"
Collide-Howie Day
so now i leave this place..never to return..
until i find you
thanks for the intro to cartel

so you think that a little information would be nice, and yes i'd hope it would be nice. but in the case where information can change the way that something happens, unless that thing was not meant to be changed in any way. but in this case it was.
so here's to the one's i love
so here's to the one's who never knew
so here's to the one's who don't even care
no im not on vacation...yet
you'd think a two hour change wouldn't have made the difference...
well guess what...it can't anymore
i think maybe with me, you'd be better, not better off..
so here's to the one i love
goodbye
so here's to the one's i love
so here's to the one's who never knew
so here's to the one's who don't even care
no im not on vacation...yet
you'd think a two hour change wouldn't have made the difference...
well guess what...it can't anymore
i think maybe with me, you'd be better, not better off..
so here's to the one i love

When I Go Down - Relient K
I'll tell you flat out
It hurts so much to think of this
So from my thoughts I will exclude
The very thing that
I hate more than everything is
The way I'm powerless
To dictate my own moods
I've thrown away
So many things that could've been much more
And I just pray
My problems go away if they're ignored
But that's not the way it works
No that's not the way it works
When I go down
I go down hard
And I take everything I've learned
And teach myself some disregaurd
When I go down
It hurts to hit the bottom
And of the things that got me there
I think, if only I had fought them
If and when I can
Clear myself of this clouded mind
I'll watch myself settle down
Into a place where
Peace can search me out and find
That I'm so ready to be found
I've thrown away
The hope I had in friendships
I've thrown away
So many things that could have been much more
I've thrown away
The secret to find the end to this
And I just pray
My problems go away if they're ignored
But that's not the way it works
No that's not that way it works
When I go down
I go down hard
And I take everything I've learned
And teach myself some disregaurd
When I go down
It hurts to hit the bottom
And of the things that got me there
I think, if only I had fought them
Any control I thought I had just slipped through my hands
While my ever-present conscience shakes its head and reprimands me Reprimands me
Then and there I confess
I'll blame all this on my selfishness
Yet You love me
And that consumes me
And I'll stand up again
And do so willingly
You give me hope, and hope it gives me life
You touch my heavy heart, and when you do You make it light
As I exhale I hear Your voice
And I answer You, though I hardly make a noise
And from my lips the words I choose to say
Seem pathetic, but it's a fallen man's praise
Cause I love You
Oh God, I love You
And life is now worth living
If only because of You
And when they say that I am dead and gone
It won't be further from the truth
When I go down
I lift my eyes to You
I won't look very far
Cause You'll be there
With open arms
To lift me up again
To lift me up again
It hurts so much to think of this
So from my thoughts I will exclude
The very thing that
I hate more than everything is
The way I'm powerless
To dictate my own moods
I've thrown away

so i'm talking to justin, and what i'm realizing is that all it is, is a popularity contest. as she passed me in the hall and said "hi justin", i knew that she didn't know me, or did anyone else, or will they ever.
it's just funny. it's like one of those movies where someone who's a nobody dies, and no one gives a damn, but then someone dies who is higher up in society, and everyone rushes to the aid of the family and tries to help in any way they can.
so i just laugh to those people, have fun, and don't screw up..
on a higher note, oh wait, there is no higher note. things are quiet all in my life, well not really. we're out of the omha's, so we go down to the regionals, joy. basketball is almost over (hallejuiah).
"cause who i am hates who i've been", way to go andy, get me hooked back on this freaking band.
so i've been thinking, and once again, im feeling a lot of guilt. now im not thinking that all of it is my fault, but then again it could be, who knows. but for now im just gonna try, and see how things work out. i mean there's really nothing that i can do, well maybe there is. we'll all see in time.
a wise person once told me that time was a weird thing, and i can't help agree, because right now, time sucks, and i hope that it stops and i will never have to worry about it again.
well that's all for now, from me, the great blue guy. or as justin puts, the "emo" color.
oops forgot the "u"..
oh and tara, everything's just peachy
the twisted candy

alright, so everything's not okay. first i thought it was, but recent "problems" have made me make a drastic decision. if only i could tell you what i'm really feeling, or what i want to say, but everytime i get so close, you seem so far away.
poetry..joy..
here lies the great pumpkin, who rises every halloween to give candy to every little boy and girl who happens to pass him in the great pumpkin patch.
but for now i think i'll stick to the basics, thank you and goodnight..
all i know is that something must be better.

i feel the need to say/write something...so here goes..
now that i think about it..exams aren't really all that worrysome. i know that's not the write speeling, but im not feeling the need to look it up. im somewhat confused as to what people have been worrying about. i mean, of course there's something that's bothering people. maybe it's the exams, but then again it could be the monster in the closet.

i think bigfoot is blurry, and that's extra scary to me. it's not the photographers fault, there's just an out of focus monster roaming the country side.
there's a monster in all of us. for me, its the monster of slowness. no but really, if anyone really knows me, i love to go fast. not slow, not medium, fast.
i like to make myself scarce.
i think im going to stop using more than one dots between sentences...it really can get kinda..bleh.
so now im going fast to make myself scarce..
oh and andy, get some leaves

Memo From God
To: YOU
Date:TODAY
From: THE BOSS
Subject: YOURSELF
Reference: LIFE
Date:TODAY
From: THE BOSS
Subject: YOURSELF
Reference: LIFE
Today I will be handling all of your problems. Please remember that I do not need your help. If life happens to deliver a situation to you that you cannot handle, do not attempt to resolve it. Kindly put it in the SFGTD (something for God to do) box.
It will be addressed in My time...not yours. Once the matter is placed into the box, do not hold on to it.
If you find yourself stuck in traffic...Don't despair. There are people in this world for whom driving is an unheard of privilege.
Should you have a bad day at work; Think of the man who has been out of work for years.
Should you despair over a relationship gone bad; Think of the person who has never known what it's like to love and be loved in return.
Should you grieve the passing of another weekend; Think of the woman in dire straits, working twelve hours a day, seven days a week to feed her children.
Should your car break down, leaving you miles away from assistance; Think of the paraplegic who would love the opportunity to take that walk.
Should you notice a new gray hair in the mirror; Think of the cancer patient in chemo who wishes she had hair to examine.
Should you find yourself at a loss and pondering what is life all about, asking what is my purpose? Be thankful. There are those who didn't live long enough to get the opportunity.
Should you find yourself the victim of other people's bitterness, ignorance, smallness or insecurities; Remember, things could be worse ... You could be them!!!!
