sparrow no more
so realizing that even though i have been given the world,
the world that i have been given is only within their boundries,
because its okay by them
and i'll never be completely free

my heat is beeping
i'm not sure why
but i've always had a fascination
with the war in Uganda and the child soldiers there
ever since Fall Out Boy came out with the video for "Me and You"
and Pete Wentz got really into it
(i know its a very lame reason but hey, it's something)
then my friend Alex gave me the Invisible Children movie, which i later passed on, and Jessica and I watched it
I was captivated and just wanted to do something about it
lately i've been thinking about how after college i want to join some kind of group and do humanities there against the war
recently its just always in the back of my head
i can't stop reading and thinking about it
for the longest time i've been wanting to read something intelligent, other then teen love stories (hah)
and could never find anything interesting
but finally I'm interested
[[i’ve always known i’ve wanted to do something greater with my life than just live it for myself, maybe this is what i’ve been looking for, and i’m just now realizing it]]
edit: this ties in with not only me, but my connection with god and wanting to be something greater, and my music and how this organization has always been closely tied to it in that many musicians support this cause
it's honestly one of my passions in life
to go to Africa and see it and try to help it
i've finally found some passion in my life besides music, and I'm really excited
on april 25th i'll be doing an event with my friends
i can't wait
to finally be using my life for something other than just living
and be something for someone else
i know who matters will be proud when i do.

hush.
i
sinned
underneath
religion
and
dreams
in
a
place
that
was
not
my
own
and
i
wont
call
it
home
[[Nothing comes as easy as you.
Can I lay in your bed all day?
I'll be your best kept secret
And your biggest mistake.]]
[[Turn off the lights and turn off the shyness
Cause all of our moves make up for the silence
To the love, I left my conscience pressed
Between the pages of the Bible in the drawer
"What did it ever do for me" I say
And oh, the way your makeup stains my pillowcase
Like I'll never be the same]]

Can't Please Everyone
Can't Please Anyone
I'm in it for myself
you better hold on
to me now
because baby,
in just a short while,
I'll be gone.
I'm leaving you
not my dreams
dead end town
dead end hearts
This is it
this is the part where
i turn and run
told you i'd break you
and you know how i
love to be right.
Can't Win
Can't Fight
Can't Lose
You.

two
maybe its just because i can't find my balance
but all i want is you?
forever and right now can be two very different things but
they can also be the same
when found in a person.
for now, they are separate.
