At a loss
Alright. I have been captured by a small batallion of mildly emo forces and am posting lyrics. This song has been running in my head for the past 2 days and it's come to mean something much more than it used to. I can't quite descrube what I'm feeling right now. Loss, regret, guilt, disappointment, anger at myself, inadequacy, and then there are times when I can't feel anything at all.......I'm a wreck. The next few days, weeks, months, whatever, are going to be rough. Here's to making it through and taking it with you.
"For Good" from Wicked
I've heard it said
That people come into our lives for a reason
Bringing something we must learn
and we are led to those
who help us most to grow
if we let them, and we help them in return
Well I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you
Like a comet pulled form orbit
as it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
half-way through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better
But because I knew you:
I have been changed for good
It well may be
that we will never meet again in this lifetime
so let me say before we part
so much of me
is made of what I've learned from you
You'll be with me like a handprint on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you have rewritten mine
by being my friend
Like a ship pulled from it's mooring
by a wind of the sea
Like a seed dropped by a sky bird
in a distant wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better
But because I knew you
I have been changed for good.
And just to clear the air I ask forgiveness
for the things I've done, you blamed me for
But then I guess we know there's blame to share
and none of it seems to matter anymore.
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
I do believe I have been changed for the better.
And because I knew you
Because I knew you
I have been changed for good.
