I have created a fictional world inside of my mind, one in which your common words are hiding true meanings, and your conventional actions are conquering mirrored feelings. But. I do recognize the very strong lines that define the disconnect between the reality of things and my land of make-believe, cause, fuck, I’m not crazy - it’s just way more fun to pretend.

I keep my body concentrated on acting intentionally

so now

my arms are always crossed, folded, or moving,

hands pushed into the deepest corners of my pockets

and I keep focused on

distractions upon distractions upon distractions

anything to keep my body from acting impulsively

cause then

my arms would be hugging, holding, or loving you

hands interlocked in the deepest notches of your fingers

and you’d be my only

distraction upon distraction upon distraction

your touch is careless

but your body heat ignites

these wildfires

deep inside of me,

leaving me fiercely alive,

inspired, and scared.

There’s power
In the powder
Dissolving in your guts

Crush it up, crush it up
Take it down, take it down
Smash it up, smash it up
Falling down

- Yellowcard, Powder

I don’t know why it took me so long to realize that this song was about drugs when I was in high school..

I’ve been on an earlyhighschool music kick all day cause it’s been too long since these bands have sang to me through my speakers. i miss it.

I think today I’ll try and kiss you on your cheek.
I hope you’ll let me go.
I know you’re the one.
Its all I want to hear you say your mine. - The Early November, Open Eyes

All we ever wanted was
Love and luck and happy afternoons
Watching TV from your room
While you’re laying in my arms
And I know It’s not fair to me
To see this love walk right by me
Every day, will we ever meet the right way - The Early November, All We Ever Needed

i guess the most that i can do
is make a call and tell you the truth
sing the words in melody
and hope that you’ll believe me
here’s another song for you
so this one this one makes two
still don’t know where to begin
i’ll just leave it at this
i’m sure you always feel my eyes on you
but i hope that you will never feel unwanted - The Starting Line, Playing Favorites

I’m starting to fashion an idea in my head
where I would impress you
with every single word I said.
Would come out insightful or brave or smooth or charming
and you’d want to call me - Dashboard Confessional, For You To Notice

Tear me off a piece of blanket
keep me warm and we can make it
Here’s my heart, I’ll let you break it
Touched your skin and I can’t take it - Yellowcard, October Nights

All I have deep inside, to overcome this desire
are friendly intentions and fair-weather smiles - Yellowcard, Rough Draft
