Array ( [sid] => 118662 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Counter Culture [time] => 2006-04-20 02:28:32 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Watch the crowd until it dies down
then make your way
it's the best chance you'll get
you can't hesitate
I know because I waited too long
and now I sing the sad song.
Luck was not with me
she must have had a prior engagement

but hey
I'll watch the crowd with you
I'll tell you when to make the right move
but wonder
can I be trusted?
after all why should you succeed
misery keeps great company
we'll laugh through the good times
and I'll disguise the bad
I'll make it so great
you'll forget whatever it was

We'll frolick through empty parking lots
and meet at the BP
We'll walk past street signs in the
moonless night chatting companionably
it would be grand
forget about all those plans
I mean you would have never made it
don't you see
I'm really only protecting you
give up those stupid dreams

I heard that the BP is hiring
and we'll have every day to each other
there, isn't that better
I'm glad you saw it my way
I hope that you weren't hoping
that you'd regret this
cheer up kid
there's always tomorrow. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 181 [topic] => 43 [informant] => twick [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

Wonderfully written. It always seems that life has those obstacles keeping us from our dreams. Like you said: there's always tomorrow. So pick yourself up and dust yourself off and walk on to your dreams.
