Lyric of the Day

I started a new job today. The time came for me to move on. I had grown as much as I could there. I was just beginning to feel emotionally drained. I have learned a lot from being there. I made wonderful friends, and will forever be grateful for having a job when others did not. I will look back on my time there with fond memories. I worked hard, but I played hard too. It may have been my first job but it taught me soo much. I will miss the people, I will miss the Friday evening drinks, but most of all I will miss the friends I made there, however I will see them often because they miss me too much already! But now onto new things, hopefully more creative things.

"I gotta take the time to get it right,

I gotta be the person I gotta be,

I gotta make a plan and now,

it's up to me..."

It's Up To Me by Pennywise

Lyric/s of the Day

I chose my first lyric as it reflects on countless conversations I have had with my friends. A conversation that seems to go in circles, I know the answers to the questions I keep on bringing up. I know what I have to do. I just need to muster the strength and do it. My friends know what I am talking about! haha. Once again it is Rise Against. I rummaged through my CD drawer last night and dusted off all the old punk albums I grew up to and loved. And one of them was a legend compilation called family business. And one of the tracks, Rise Against - Six Ways 'Til Sunday. The song came on and it reminded me of my sister, I had dedicated it to her once. The verse then came on that is of relevance to me, today.
Here is my snippet...

"You're claiming to be something different

so wanting to believe

that you're better than the rest

to make up for your self-esteem

you talk to hear your own voice and

you've left me no choice but to choose

I miss the person that you were

but I don't miss you.."

- Six Ways 'Til Sunday by Rise Against

My second lyric is chosen because I have reached the point where...

"I declare I don't care no more

I'm burning up and out and growing bored...

I'm not growing up

I'm just burning out

And I stepped in line

to walk amongst the dead"

- Burn Out by Green Day

I felt like a pre-packaged robot, machine thing today. I am glad I have new things for me waiting in the wings. This is not my career, it is my job.

Lyric of the Day

I quit my job today. After that I got into my car, drove home and the song playing on the way home happened to fit. I had thought about the song a few weeks back, and it just happened to be playing. Sometimes things just make sense.

"I can finally breathe,

suddenly alive,

I can finally move,

the world feels revived...

no need to hide anything anymore,

cant return to who i was before"

- Breathe by Anberlin

AWESOME!
