"We're just dancing, we're just hugging, Singing, screaming, kissing, tugging On the sleeve of how it used to be "

Today Nothing Is Wrong Just Momentarily Confusing.

I think sometimes everyone just gets sick of people.
Like how you get sick of a book, or a type of tea, or a song. And then you either wait awhile and rediscover it suddenly on a rainy afternoon and have all that first-time, excited, childlike feeling come back, or you find a new book, or a new song, or a new, exotic type of tea to try out. Or perhaps it's just the same type of tea with no milk, or added milk, or sugar. Because sugar changes tea lots, actually. And I suppose it doesn't mean you like the person, or the book, or tea, or whatever it is any less, it's just one of those things. 'C'est La Vie,' like the French say, which is a quote that would mean nothing interesting at all in English but because it is in French amounts to a great big pondering metaphor.

But thats the sad thing about being alive, I guess. That you lose things so easily. Feelings, mostly. Or people. The hardest part of things changing is that it makes what you lost seem so much more important. I would say though, that some things aren't meant to be fixed.

Do it for the living and do it for the dead
Do it for the monsters under your bed
Do it for the teenagers and do it for your mom
Broken hearts hurt but they make you strong
