not the walking dead.

now you try too hard for the simple things
that are never out of reach
grew up too fast, gave up on dreams and you're stuck

i've been listening to this band called fireworks pretty much non stop for the past week and this one song in particular is making me believe in the dreams i had for three years. i never meant to give up on them. i didn't mean to become an old man over night just because of this stupid civilian job i have. there is so much more to life than just getting through the day, the night, the week, whatever.

this past year has been rough and maybe that has been part of why i lost sight of what i love about the music and the words and the meaning and freedom of it all. i know it might sound silly, but i'm ready to get back into it. it might just be a dream forever, but i think i'd rather have that dream and never get to do it than not even have anything to work toward at all.
