Array ( [sid] => 29431 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Today [time] => 2003-12-15 12:40:02 [hometext] => This is kind of my state of mind right now. Inbetween everything I'm just waiting for my time to shine... [bodytext] => They say the grass is always greener,
well I've seen the grass and it is so much cleaner,
and I slipped and fell upon my knees,
I cut my leg and cut my jeans,
the hole in the fabric is open wide,
so everyone can see the wound inside.
And yeah, okay, I had something once,
but everything Gold turns to dust within my touch,
and the Gold I held, although I loved it such,
I changed my mind and decided I didn't want it much.
I will drop a bomb upon this world,
I will shout and scream, until I'm heard.
I have been bullied, I've been the bully,
I've been utterly confused, and I've understood fully.
I've loved this life whilst standing in line,
but someone went ahead and took my place.
Life has a way of pulling you up,
then turning back around to slap you in the face.
This place you speak of, does it exist?
Would you take me along?
Would you take me along?
Could you take me along?
Please just take me with you,
because I want to see everything this place has to offer...
and I want to show this world just what I have to offer,
today. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 246 [topic] => 43 [informant] => broken-glass [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

cause torn jeans is what they get
showing the world that they are an
well you know cause what happens when dandlines spoil that grass no weed killer will get read of them and you look back on your yard over the fence and you think all I needed was to give it more care but it is to late someone has moved into that house
