I know it’s a little immature, but I still will often say the exact opposite of what I think or what I feel, with the most deadpan of deliveries. I tell myself, “If they understand me, they’re worth keeping in my life. They’ll be worth keeping close, if they can just understand me.”

Maybe that just means it’s up to me to make myself worth keeping in their life. Maybe it means I ought try harder for their sake, that I can work for us too. Remember to support your friends!

I don’t have a love song

To tell you how I feel

I’ll just tell you how I walked on

Until my life felt real

and I’ll take what I had left of me

to make it something new

You showed me how to get about

You turned my skies all blue

And I can think of all the troubles that I had

And I can hold to all the heartache like my dad

And I can fall into a never-ending sleep

Or I could hold you close, the one I want to keep

I found a way back then

I’ll find a way again
