title : The worst is over you can have the best of me
One day a boy came to me and held out his hand, on this palm was a ball filled with a certain toy that he got from the $1 machine outside my shop... With his teary eyes I could tell that he did not get what he wanted, so he said without hesitation "can I have one more chance?" I was surprised by his directness but in life you don't always get what you hoped for and that machine was there to remind us of that very fact... However I took out a dollar and took his toy in return. To me, thats life, things don't always turn out the way you wanted to but sometimes you just need someone there ,the right person to say yes, you get more than one second chance... (:
This is the day where everything feels fresh and my sleep has never been this good, baby don't even sleep this well. I was hit by a dizzy dry spell where everything and anything I said would amounts to nowhere for us, and suddenly I find myself letting go and then all that was hidden in my heart all these time I let it out, and I'm glad I did... I was driving home the other day and I went pass a church and the neon signage shouts a phrase that goes like this: "the truth shall set thou free" I smiled at myself knowing that everything is gonna be alright... I was just thinking about everything that had happen these few days, and I realized the necessity of Pain and sorrows. Only through pain can we savour happiness, which is why I can only humbly say that I was wrong and I'm glad that I realize what I just realize. Honestly last weekend was one of the most depressing days in my life, its kinda like a sky without a Sun, Sea without water or something along the line of a bird without its nest... Things that should be around aren't and there's seriously no place to rest my tired head. And like you said, the words just doesn't register anymore because we're so over it. (: thank God that it is. I'm happy again, like a boy who just learn how to run with all that speed and wind I feel free with my new found glory! Seriously, I asked myself many times what makes a man. Is it his ability to not feel affected or his very own hearts desire for a woman's company. I talked to everyone around me and all of them told me the same thing, which is its okay to speak up. Chuan told me that its one thing to speak up and another to find a solution to all my worries. I guess I was caught up with the solutions more than the need to let you into my head. As the Sun was rising for us that day, the whole air feels like a dream to me. A dream that was soon turing into reality for me.... you. The year is coming to an end, and our december sun will soon be setting on us. All the pain that I've endured this year, all the tears that I've fall and all the lessons that I've learnt I really don't wanna relive a single moment of it. To be honest I kinda lost myself back then... Now I look at everyone around me, all the other friends who used to be so happy with the other half. Maybe a part of me is afraid that as time goes by things will be bland and everything would turn out to be a cycle but I don't know? HAHA! Knowing me, I'm a cukoo dreamer, So I'll just say *fingers crossed* Nope, that won't be us. And you being all practical don't agree with my sentiments just yet! HAHA! I pray that in the days to come we'll be strong, you were the one who'd save me from myself. When I was lost at sea, and all that was left was a piece of driftwood that keeps me afloat, you came to me, drag out the sun and calm the storm in me... you gave me a hand and pulled me out from everything... So yeah, don't let go just yet. (: Best of me - The Starting Line Tell me what you thought about when you were gone and so alone The worst is over You can have the best of me We got older, but we're still young We never grew out of this feeling that we won't give up Here we lay again On two separate beds, riding phone lines To meet a familiar voice and pictures drawn from memory We reflect on miscommunications and misunderstandings And missing each other too, much too attached to let go. Turn our music down and we whisper, "Say what you're thinking right now." Tell me what you thought about when you were gone and so alone The worst is over You can have the best of me We got older, but we're still young... We never grew out of this feeling that we won't give up Jumping to conclusions Made me fall away from you. I'm so glad that the truth, has brought back together me and you We're sitting on the ground (sitting on the ground) And we whisper, (and we whisper) "Say what you're thinking out loud." Tell me what you thought about when you were gone and so alone The worst is over You can have the best of me We got older, but we're still young... We never grew out of this feeling that we won't give up Turn our music down and we whisper, We're sitting on the ground and we whisper, We turn our music down, we're sitting on the ground The next time I'm in town, we will kiss, girl.... We will kiss, girl! Tell me what you thought about when you were gone and so alone... The worst is over You can have the best of me We got older, but we're still young We never grew out of this feeling that we won't, Feeling that we can't We're not ready to give up We got older but we're still young We never grew out of this feeling that we won't give up... |
