a.
I don't think it's the loneliness
that gets me in the end.


b.
Well I can play my own songs now
and you can listen to what I choose to strum.
Maybe you'll miss me for a moment
cause my voice once might have made you cry,
but you know we have plenty to keep us busy.

c.
I'd be lying if I said that
you've disappeared after all this time,
because every boy I meet
turns into a beautiful monster
trying to ensnare me in his words.
Stay under my bed, cause I won't invite you in.

d.
I'm stronger than anyone I know
(but I wish I didn't have to be) and
(I wish I didn't have to start over) and
(I wish I didn't hate everyone before I said hello) and
(I wish) ah, wishing never did me any good anyway.

e.
You see,
I have discovered that it's a big world
and I was living in a dark cave.
I'm taking the exit,
and I am bathing in the light
and it hurts it hurts to drag myself
into this lonely landscape.
But god if I can make it up here
I need not worry about emptiness.


f.
I don't think it's the loneliness
that gets me in the end.
I think it's the fear of endless possibilities that
you aren't a part of.


And I can deal with that.

full title: I started to think about you, but then I remembered how to be happy.

Maria Mena is very inspirational. I love you dear.

(she's a song writer. Cause all the best people are.)

Great job ending it/driving it all home with that last line "and I can deal with that"
Another fav! :D
