MV4 Soundtrack
This requires some explaining because I really haven’t written about it all. But I (yet again) don’t have time. I heard this song in the car this morning and it made me so happy. It made me think of me and Manny and saving the best for last. The repeated lines at the end… "We’re moving forward but holding ourselves back and we’re waiting for something that will never come." He and I are moving forward, very slowly – oh so slowly – and often times holding back, slamming on brakes from our 1mph speed. And we’re both, in one way or another, waiting for what has always come in the past – the big blowup, the fight, the detonation. But its not coming. And as another day passes, and as more time goes on, I start to believe what the song says. That we’re waiting for something that will never come.
Yes. I am a huge dork.
"It’s For The Best"
It takes more time than I’ve ever had,
Drains the life from me,
Makes me want to forget,
As young as I was,
I felt older back then,
More disciplined,
Stronger and certain,
But I was scared to death of eternity,
I was saved by grace,
But destroyed by naivety,
And I lied to myself,
And said it was for the best,
And now faith is replaced with a logic so cold
I’ve disregarded what I was,
Now that I’m older,
And I know much more than I did back then,
But the more I learn,
The more I can’t understand,
And I’ve become content with this life that I lead,
Where I drink to much and don’t believe in much of anything,
And I lie to myself,
And say it’s for the best,
We’re moving forward,
But holding ourselves back,
And we’re waiting on something that will never come,
We’re moving forward,
But holding ourselves back,
And we’re waiting on something that will never come,
We’re moving forward,
But holding ourselves back,
And we’re waiting on something that will never come,
We’re moving forward,
But holding ourselves back,
And we’re waiting on something that will never come,
We’re moving forward,
But holding ourselves back,
And we’re waiting on something that will never come,
We’re moving forward,
But holding ourselves back,
And we’re waiting on something that will never come.
