You think you can, but sometimes that is the problem...


To this world I am unimportant
Just because I have nothing to give.
So you call this your free country
Tell me why it costs so much to live
Tell me why.

This world can turn me down
But I won't turn away, oh no
I won't turn around.

All my work and endless measures
Never seen to get me very far
Walk a mile just to move an inch now
Even though I'm trying so damn hard
I'm trying so hard

This world can turn me down
But I won't turn away
And I won't duck and run
Cause I'm not built that way.
When everything is gone there is nothing left to fear.
The world cannot bring me down
No cause I am already here, oh no!

I am already here,
Down on my knees
I am already here
Oh, no, I am already here.
I must have told you a thousand times I am not running away.

-Duck and Run
3 Doors Down


It is time for me to change again. It's been almost a year. Something's going to happen. It will happen. What is it going to be? A crime, perhaps? Some social abnormality?
What do you want from me, people?
I don't care for you. In fact, I hate you. I don't need you, I don't need all this shit.
I'm tired of pretending to care, pretending to try to be nice. It's over, ok?
Maybe when I'm far away from all of you, I'll change my mind. But by that time, I'll be dead.
So fuck you all. I don't care anymore, I really don't.

I'm going to destroy this life. School, friends, all of it. It's all coming to an end, and I don't care. I'm starting over, by myself. I'm walking away, alone. From this point on there will be no more faking.

It's over.

If you were all one person, I'd slap your collective face and walk away.

Hey Erik... um... I'm sure I'm one of the people who really pisses you off sometimes... in fact, I know I am... but I still care about you. And I don't know, maybe that doesn't mean much to you, but I figured I'd say it anyway. What if you tried not faking? I bet a lot of people would like you anyway... and if they didn't, just say fuck them, they aren't worth your time. And I give you permission to slap me if it would make you feel any better, although I'd prefer on the arm to on the face. Or we could throw someone in the pool on Thursday, that's always good for cheering people up.

Just... I don't know... just remember there's people who do care about you and who don't mind listening to you rant if you need someone to talk to.
