Who would have thought
two years made a difference?
Two years is not that long
in the grand scheme of things.
Two years ago, I didn't know
so much that I do today.
Two years ago, I wouldn't have
made some of the choices I did.
Two years ago, I could smile,
a genuine smile, with real emotion.

If I could go back to two years ago,
I would change what I did,
Warn myself that not everyone is good.
I used to believe that everyone was good
even if they were only good in some tiny way.
I know better now some people will never care
how much pain they cause.
Two years ago, I wish I'd known.

...save everyone," they said.

                                                                    They were right,
                                                                          I died trying.

Whether or not I was "asking for it"
Shouldn't matter
No one deserves that,
Not me, not her -- no one.

Shadows settle on the place, that you left.
Our minds are troubled by the emptiness.
Destroy the middle, it's a waste of time.
From the perfect start to the finish line.

And if you're still breathing, you're the lucky ones.
'Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs.
Setting fire to our insides for fun
Collecting names of the lovers that went wrong
The lovers that went wrong.

We are the reckless,
We are the wild youth
Chasing visions of our futures
One day we'll reveal the truth
That one will die before he gets there.

And if you're still bleeding, you're the lucky ones.
'Cause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone.
We're setting fire to our insides for fun.
Collecting pictures from a flood that wrecked our home,
It was a flood that wrecked this home.

And you caused it,
And you caused it,
And you caused it

Well I've lost it all, I'm just a silhouette,
I'm a lifeless face that you'll soon forget,
And my eyes are damp from the words you left,
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest.
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest.

And if you're in love, then you are the lucky one,
'Cause most of us are bitter over someone.
Setting fire to our insides for fun,
To distract our hearts from ever missing them.
But I'm forever missing him.

And you caused it,
And you caused it,
And you caused it
Youth, by Daughter.
Honestly one of my favorite songs of all time, I encourage you to look it up, I would love to share the beauty of it.

just don't care,

point passed,

permission slip

self-granted,

signed by no one.

just,

my main word,

left embarrassment

in the shadows,

the shadows,

are now overlooked,

laid them down by the wayside

staying there,

but staying no longer.

not in my heart,

weep freely,

me being me,

excuse me for not excusing me,

busy paying attention

to the

gifts within,

so long to the hallelujahs

that have come and gone,

not waiting around

for their
return trip,

new enterprises

beginning with me,

my only principle,

just

be just

unto yourself


for you

are a genre unique,

a life worthwhile
