[hometext] => Varied technique throughout this piece, let me know what you think. Comments are very much appreciated.
[bodytext] => I live different lives all at the same time. I heard through the grapevine that you want to get out of here too. Driving down Main Street on a Sunday afternoon I can feel the air rush on by me. Did you hear that? I can feel something, finally. And with the music blaring I sing along I sing along I am alive but a lie and alone. Just who have I become? If only we could get together and walk by the river I know the best spot, where there is a tree that hangs over the water. Sitting with our feet dangling talking while watching the thunderstorm roll in. And we won't move an inch. You can tell me where you've gotten stabbed and how it all scars because you pick at your scabs too. But there's always a but. In my car with the music blaring I sing along I sing along that I'm alive but a lie and alone. Just who have I become? I wish all of my dreams could become reality, but there's always a but. And now all i can do is go on singing I live different lives all at the same time. It's all driving me insane I ignore all my problems and all the pain And push the petal down farther, not knowing if I want to take this turn or drive straight straight into the guard rail. Oh it never fails, I tell all the same stories maybe too much because now I can't tell if they're true anymore. Maybe I don't know me anymore. I'll drink it all away and the next day I'll drive with my music blaring and I'll sing along singing I'm alive but a lie and alone. Just who have I become?
