One.

i dont understand. sometimes some lyrics are so beautiful.
maybe its because they rhyme, they sound good. maybe they dont. maybe because they speak a truth. maybe they don't, maybe they just make you feel good.

maybe they remind you of a time when you didn't feel good.

sometimes its because you see what you are thinking, spelled out for you, the way you want it, maybe you don't.


sometimes they're just beautiful and quite simply thats all there is to it







and sometimes its because they're exactly what you want to say but you can't say it.







anyway.



Is it getting better,
or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you,
now you got someone to blame?
You say
one love,
one life,
when it's
one need in the night.
One love,
we get to share it
Leaves you baby
if you don't care for it.

Did I disappoint you
or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
and you want me to go without.
Well, it's too late tonight
to drag the past out into the light.
We're one,
but we're not the same.
We get to carry each other,
carry each other...
one

Have you come here for forgiveness,
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
to the lepers in your head
Did I
ask too much,
more than a lot
You gave me nothing,
now it's all I got.
We're one,
but we're not the same.
Well,
we hurt each other,
then we do it again.

You say
love is a temple,
love a higher law
Love is a temple,
love the higher law.
You ask me to enter,
but then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on to what you got,
when all you got is hurt.

One love, one blood, one life,
you got to do what you should.
One life with each other:
sisters, brothers.
One life,
but we're not the same.
We get to carry each other,
carry each other.

One

One.

but you get away with it

now that she's back

adf.




sigh.
i dont know why bad things happen.
my closest friend from childhood's brother, who is also one of my closest friend from childhood... no you dont understand, our parents went to college together... yeah.. that much childhood friend... got in an accident. wasn't even his fault. i dont know if i have the right to tell the story and even if i do i feel awkward which i hope is out of respect. but it was just his bare self that got hit... by a car! some retard car came and just, sigh, his leg has metal rods in it now because the bones suffered compound fractures. yeah. and i thank God every day now because he could have died. i feel an unexplainable terrible feeling saying and thinking that but its true. and i hope no one has to ever feel that.

there is someone else, very close to me, whose uncle died. this person is so close to me;well, they are in my family. one of their relatives just passed away. and people don't know how to tell him. i want to share this all in detail with you guys but i can't in some stupid old blog becuase im also superstitious and i feel like im jynxing things.

so im just going to stop. and leave out the other bad news becuase its summer and the sun is supposed to shine


i am praying.



life.



























to me life is about expectations. and crushing them.
meeting them and crushing them. i think most of the time they are crushed. but most of the time that's not a bad thing.

and im sure this isn't what i completely feel about life so dont quote me.






"dont take life seriously because you can't come out of it alive." -warren miller

yeah okay warren miller, dont take life seriously and you'll be coming out of it much more quickly than you expected.


i hope whoever is reading this, you all, whoever, know that im upset because of a plethora of things and for this reason i am being upset with warren miller.


sorry warren.





i'll be better in the morning.

"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense." -Ralph Waldo Emerson

i'm on team thoreau. but i love emerson for this.












?Entonces, que es, de todos modos, lo que trae a dos personas juntas?
mi pregunta.
