I don't even know what I'm doing I guess. I have never been here before. I have never felt the bitter effects of being so close to seventeen that You can taste it. I've never fully put myself out on a limb yet. I've never dangled so high above the canyons of- I don't even know what. (sorry, I'm too tired to think of a metaphor). I've never tried so hard to win before, hell, I've never really wanted to win before. I'm strung together with motown and old violin strings and also the constant nagging to become something. I really don't want to, please don't make me.
