| @[Acrobatc101:10244] I really kinda disagree with this, particularly the last part. A flash of lighting doesnt really last very long, nor does an autumn moon or blowing wind. The night is the only thing that is permanent and sure to be. :o | |

I can’t tell you what the song “Famous Last Words” means as opposed to the artist, but I did interpret it in regards to my own life, so here goes. Years ago, I fell in love with a boy who I will call Laurence. We were both merely In our pre-teens and he would tell me many things. At that age, I believed everything he said to me, no matter how outrageous what he said seemed. Overtime, he would come in and out of my life, each time with a new story that I would accept immediately because I thought we were such good friends that he would never lie to me. I would even go as far to say that I loved him. Seven years into the future, we are no longer teenagers anymore and I demand the truth from all those years of him lying to me. “I know that I can’t make you stay…” All relationships are built on trust and since I knew that I could not make him tell me the truth. At this point it was up to him to decide whether we continue on this road together or not. “But where’s your heart?” He would always say that he loved me, but if he truly loved me he would tell me the truth. I wanted to say, “Well, where is your love now? Where is your love now when I need it most?” “And I know there’s nothing I can say, to change that part” I truly feel that he was not going to tell me the truth. And sure enough, instead of telling me what I needed to hear, he held securely onto what we both clearly knew were lies. “So many bright lights they cast a shadow, but can I speak?” As a young girl, I held onto every word he said. He would masterfully weave tales of glory and adventure that, in my feeble immature eyes, had to be true. I grew so insecure with my own life, that I would always wonder why he wanted to be with me. I was just a boring teenager. But as I grew older I became wiser and doubt grew. However, I was still infatuated with my friend and refused to challenge him. “Is it so hard understanding, I’m incomplete?” I would try to explain how much I wanted to be with him. How I wanted to feel something on a deeper level but I never understood why, after so long, I didn’t feel truly connected to him. Now I feel that it was the doubt that didn’t allow me to feel real love for him. “A life that’s so demanding, I get so weak” At this age, life is going to be truly difficult, and it would be nice to have someone at my side that I could depend on. It would be nice to know that our friendship was really worth something and that maybe someday it could be more. “A love that’s so demanding, I can’t speak” Everyone has their own plights in life, for some it’s money, fame, or popularity. But for me it was love, and I wanted so much to find that one person in the world who would be in tune with me. My wish to love is demanding in such a way that I can’t explain it to him properly (and perhaps no one else either). “I am not afraid to keep on living I am not afraid to walk this world alone After years of relationships and friendships breaking, I am no longer terrified of being alone. It is something I have grown used too. While losing him as a friend will hurt me for a time, I know that my inner wounds will heal. “Honey if you stay, I'll be forgiven Nothing you can say can stop me going home” While I still wish that he will choose to tell me the truth, I won’t let his failure to do so make me stop pursuing a real honest connection. “Can you see my eyes are shining bright, because I’m out here on the other side of a jet black hotel mirror, and I’m so weak” Confronted with the lie that is our relationship, I want to cry. Our relationship is just a cheap sad lie that should have never lasted so long. I feel used and I want to cry but I don’t… “These bright lights have always blinded me” I had believed in him, worried about him, sat through long nights where he swore to me that he would commit suicide. I trusted him and loved him to the best of my ability. Perhaps I only saw what I wanted to see. “I see you lying next to me” After eight long years, he continues to lie to me. The only difference is, I choose to see it now. “With words I thought I’d never speak awake and unafraid, asleep or dead” I finally stand up for myself and demand the truth from him even if it means the death of our friendship because I can no longer stand to hear the lies. “I am not afraid to keep on living, I am not afraid to walk this world alone (or dead)” Loneliness and Death are far better friends than he would have ever been. I rather succumb to either than allow him to drag my heart through the dirt any longer. |
