Obviously all this blog is good for is hurting people.
This will be my last post.
If I care about you and you care about me, you'll know where to find me.
Goodbye.

Chugging white rum and chasing with white wine. I seriously think that if I ever taste white wine again, I'll feel sick.
But anyway, such a good night after a relatively shitty day. Rebecca, Amanda, Camila, Kathleen, Aleks -- thank you. I love you girls.
And for the first time in my life, I realized that I'm not in love with anyone. No one. I'm free. It feels so weird. I feel like I have nothing to do with my time and no one to lurk and no one to think about. My mind and time is not consumed by anyone in particular other than...friends and family and school and what I'm going to eat for dinner.
It feels nice. I think I'm going to keep it this way for a while.
I'm a kid. Let's have fun.
The world before me. The wall behind me. I don't know which side I'm on, but it's the right one for me. I'll take my time now. I'll sing my heart out. Now I know the strings that held me down have come undone, I'm on my way. This isn't the first time I've been to this place, but it's the last time I'll be afraid of anything. And so the next time you look at my face, know it's the last time you'll ever get to question me on my broken legs.

are you not impressed?
Through everything, the good and the bad, my boys in AFI have been there for me.
I can't explain how thankful I am for them and for what they do.
Davey, Jade, Adam, Hunter -- you saved me.
I fully believe that if it wasn't for you, I would not be here today.
You are part of me and I am proud of everything you do.
When I put on an AFI album, turn it up 40 notches, and sit there in the talent, that's when I know everything is going to be okay.
And anything is possible.
And I am safe.
Boys, you are the true loves of my life.
Thank you.
I love you.
pull the top down, use your knees to drive. i'll make it worth your while, just let me taste the sky. you pressed your mouth on mine and fed me a star and said we can never truly know who we are. know who we are. with the lights out and the night inside, the broken radio was playing suicide. i felt myself falling, i confess to you. i saw a body, you said you'd seen a few. this night has only just begun. if there's discretion that you've abandoned now's the time. we'll burn to best the morning's sun. go grab your bag, i'll bring the gun, the gun. keep the top down, use your knees to drive. i'll hide these words, they're only yours to find. you pressed your mouth on mine and said, they'd call us stars, then said we never can truly know who we are. this night has only just begun. if there's discretion that you've not abandoned now's the time. we'll burn to best the morning sun. go grab your bag, i'll bring the gun. everything was burning bright, everyone was frightened. you said, "stay strong". everybody knowing that what we'd invited still remains when we're gone. this night has only just begun. if there's discretion now's the time. we'll burn to best the morning's sun. go grab your bag, i'll bring the gun, oh.

nicest thing
five days after black and red collide.
the motion sickness past, i'll be the first to stand.
behind that weathered door, i thought it would be safest.
my head is dizzy now, i thought we'd overcome.
we might not make it home tonight.
crawling on the ash, she's pitiful.
she lost her sense of light; she has to hold my hand.
had i known we might be two kids without their jackets
my fear would come alive, i wouldn't love her now.
she might not make it home tonight.
get up.
get up.
get up.
-----
I relive it, the way you looked at me, the way you waited.
The way you told me to keep warm and how badly that broke both our hearts.
You knocked on the door to my heart.
I tried to answer.
And I can't tell if it's because I was afraid, or because I got lost along the way, but I never opened the door.
I couldn't leave you on the doorstep, freezing.
But I couldn't open the door.
So I did what I knew: I sent you away.
You were my shoulder to cry on, and now you're gone when I need you the most.

fallen
heaven bend to take my hand, and lead me through the fire.
be the long awaited answer to a long and painful fight.
truth be told, i've tried my best, but somewhere along the way i got caught up in all there was to offer.
and the cost was so much more than i could bear.
though i've tried, i've fallen. i have sunk so low.
i have messed up. better i should know.
so don't come around here, and tell me i told you so...
we all begin with good intent; love was raw and young.
we believed that we could change ourselves, the past could be undone.
but we carry on our backs the burden time always reveals.
the lonely light of morning.
the wound that would not heal.
it's the bitter taste of losing everything that i have held so dear.
i've fallen. i have sunk so low.
i have messed up, better i should know.
so don't come around here, and tell me i told you so...
heaven bend to take my hand, nowhere left to turn.
i'm lost to those i thought were friends, to everyone i know.
oh, they turn their heads, embarrassed, pretend that they don't see.
but it's one missed step, you'll slip before you know it.
and there doesn't seem a way to be redeemed.
though i've tried, i've fallen. i have sunk so low.
i have messed up. better i should know.
so don't come around here, and tell me i told you so...
1/11/10
i'm still here.
Begin again, starting from the end.
Hold onto your heart. Love again. Don't let this be it. Don't let this be the end for you.

angel
I am back in Guelph and all set up with my mass amount of food, clothes, and comforting things from home.
But enough about that. I want to dedicate this post to Brooke.
Girl, you are my best friend. There is no one else I'd rather have beside me at all times. You deserve so much more than you get and have. You deserve the world. I don't know who or what or where I'd be without you. You kept me sane through some of the hardest years of my life and have never left me alone. You're just about the only one. You're a strong girl, and I say fuck what the cynics say: you have the biggest heart out of anyone I know.
All I can say is that I love you. You light up my life. And thanks for keeping an eye on me when I get too drunk :)

They're playing our song. They're playing our song. Can you see the lights? Can you hear the hum of our song? I hope they get it right. I hope we dance tonight before we get it wrong. And the seasons will change us new. Be the best I've known and you know me. I could not be stuck on you if it were true. I was sleeping. My eyes were dark til you woke me and told me that opening is just the start. It was... Now I see you, til kingdom come. You're the one I want to see me for all the stupid shit I've done. Soil and six feet under, killed just like we were before you knew you'd know me. And you know me. Blooming up from the ground, three rounds and a sound like whispering. You know me. So this was our song. This was our song. I still see the lights. I can see them and the criss cross of what is true won't get to us cause you know me. I could not give up on you. And the fog of what is right won't cover us cause you know me. I could not give up a fight. Soil and six feet under, killed just like we were before you knew you'd know me. And you know me. Blooming up from the ground, three rounds and a sound like whispering, "You know me".
You know me.
You know me.
