My Deepest... Thoughts (don't be scared off =))

*Extremely sweet sounding guitar riff*

He spends his nights in California
Watchin' the stars on the big screen
And then he lies awake and he wonders
Why can't that be me...

Coz in his life he's filled with all these good intentions
He's left a lot of things
He'd rather not mention right now
Just before he says good night
He looks up
With a little smile at me and he says

If I could be like that
I would give anything
Just to live one day
In those shoes
If I could be like that
What would I do
What would I do?


... A lovely song.

Why is it that I am always downer than I should be? What's keeping me from flying? Why does it feel like everyone else is at their happiest, having the time of their lives, and I am still stuck in the mundane and the tedious? Does it take more than what I am to have fun and never stop?

I think I would like to be somebody else. Just for one day. Or maybe even several. What is it like to tackle problems different from mine? What is it like to have different tastes, different likes and dislikes? A different thing to do when I wake up, and a different routine just before going to bed? Different friends? A different love life? I want to change everything I am in a picosecond. I don't hate myself, but I think it would be a hell of a lot easier to not be me.

All she wants is that somethin' to hold onto
That's all she needs
Yeah

If I could be like that
What would I do, Lord
What would I do?

..... She said I think I'll go to Boston
I think I'll start a new life
I think I'll start over
No one knows my name

Think I need a sunrise
I'm tired of the sunset
Here's its nothing but summer
Some snow would be nice


Can it happen?

Until then..

Where I go I just don't know
Well I got to, got to, gotta take it slow
When I've found my peace of mind
I'm gonna give you some of my good time.

*Extremely lonely sounding guitar riff*

  3. !! =] You read Richard Bach? .... And seriously, would you be willing to do something that is equivalent to exchanging lives, (since it isn't exactly possible literally)?
