365 days

For the first time in my life
I wish I was a year ago
For the first time in my life
I wish I knew then
What I now know

A few things I would change
But the most i'd leave the same
I would just do them sooner
Rather than play a waiting game

I would make a phone call
On a particular night
I would stop at stop sign
On a dark wet night

Two regrets is pretty good
For 365 days
The past is so much clearer
And the future such a haze

For the first time in my life
I wish i was a year ago
For the first time in my life
I wish I knew then
What I now know

I know what I know

I know what I know
And I've seen what I've seen
But what I know and what i've seen
Are two different things
The things I've seen
Haven't always taught
Nor the things i've done
Or the things i ought
But at the end of the day
Can anything be said
We all live our lives
And wind up dead
Like the famous author
Of ecclesiastes
We all conclude
With our head on our knees
That there's nothing new
On earth under the sun
Yet each day must still dawn
And each battle must be won

Wall thoughts

I used to have this all written on a sheet on my wall. They're mostly lyrics from bands I love. Sometimes the right words ring true.

True words.

I'm inclined to ramble.

That's me on the street with the violin under my chin/playing with a grin/singing gibberish.

These days turned out nothing like I had planned.

I had time on my hands now I'm handling time.

Seeker of a new song.

But tomorrow I'll still be eating yoghurt.

Gotta find direction/before i lose hope.

Found a way to reach my heart/take it all back to the start of this/a million miles from home.

A voice of one calling.

The music in my head's making everything dance
And something in the song reminds me of you.

All the words ever written by the greatest authors, all the lyrics ever sung by singers will never serve to fill the dark space in your head where silence is the only coherent language.

I want good times: not cut out for pessimism.

Through all the fights I've conquered and beyond
The times have changed and I will now move over slowly
But through it all I still fill lost without you.

In the best possible way...

Life is good but sometimes you have to SCREAM anyway.

Savour the moment coz memory's fleeting.
