Array ( [sid] => 142503 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => how brave [time] => 2008-05-20 02:46:32 [hometext] => [bodytext] => You see my scars
and say how brave
how you've never the courge
I wonder if your crazy
somehow dranged

What I do is not brave
no heroic act

I cut out of despration
to latch onto something real
there is no glory in what I do

You are the brave one
being able to deny the temptation
you who can face life
without running away

So dont look at me
like I did something great
these scars tell my story

I like how "clear" it is........Allthought, I dont fully agree with the "brave"-part. Maybe its just how you look at it.......Greetings........
