Lost in the echo.

[Shinoda:]
(yeah) (yo)
You were that foundation
Never gonna be another one, no.
I followed, so taken
So conditioned I could never let go
Then sorrow, then sickness
Then the shock when you flip it on me
So hollow, so vicious
So afraid I couldn't let myself see
That I could never be held
Back or up no, I'll hold myself
Check the rep, yep you know mine well
Forget the rest let them know my hell
There and back yet my soul ain't sell
Kept respect up,the best they fell,
Let the rest be the tale they tell
That I was there saying…

[Chorus]
[Chester:]
In these promises broken
Deep below
Each word gets lost in the echo
So one last lie I can see through
This time I finally let you
Go, go, go.

[Shinoda:]
Test my will, test my heart
Let me tell you how the odds gonna stack up
Y'all go hard, I go smart
How's that working out for y'all in the back, huh?
I've seen that frustration
Been crossed and lost and told "No"
And I've come back unshaken
Let down and lived and let go
So you can let it be known
I don't hold back, I hold my own
I can't be mapped, I can't be cloned
I can't C-flat, it ain't my tone
I can't fall back, I came too far
Hold myself up and love my scars
Let the bells ring wherever they are
'Cause I was there saying...

[Chorus]
[Chester:]
In these promises broken
Deep below
Each word gets lost in the echo
So one last lie I can see through
This time I finally let you go!!!
Go, go, go.

[Shinoda:]
No, you can tell 'em all now
I don't back up, I don't back down
I don't fold up, and I don't bow
I don't roll over, don't know how
I don't care where the enemies are
Can't be stopped, all I know; go hard
Won't forget how I got this far
For every time saying…

[Chorus]
[Chester:]
In these promises broken
Deep below
Each word gets lost in the echo
So one last lie I can see through
This time I finally let you
Go, go, go. (Go, go, go)
Go. go, go. (Go, go, go)

Lost in the echo

to Jane :p

it's all red.

Summer comes and winter fades,
Here we are just the same,
We dont need pressure, we dont need change,
Let's not give the game away.
I used to be an empty space,
A photograph without a face,
But with your presence with your grace,
Everything falls into place.

Please don't say you love me,
'cause I might not say it back,
Doesn't mean my heart stopped skipping when you look at me like that.
Theres no need to worry when you see just where we're at.
Just please dn't say you love me
'cause I might not say it back.

Heavy words are hard to take,
Under pressre things will break,
How we feel is hard to fake,
So lets not give the game away.

Please don't say you love me,
'cause I might not say it back,
Doesn't mean my heart stopped skipping when you look at me like that.
Theres no need to worry when you see just where we're at.
Just please dn't say you love me
'cause I might not say it back.

Fools rush in.
I've been fooled before,
This time im gonna slow down,
'cause I think this could be more,
The thing I'm looking for.

Please don't say you love me,
'cause I might not say it back,
Doesn't mean my heart stopped skipping when you look at me like that.
Theres no need to worry when you see just where we're at.
Just please dn't say you love me,
'cause I might not say it back.

Please Don't Say You Love Me by Gabrielle Aplin

I hear you ;)

we're perfectly weird.

safe.

When I think about him, the word 'safe' comes into mind. I could never have seen this coming for I thought being with him was like standing on the edge of a cliff, just waiting to fall. And now it turns out, he's just safe. No one has ever made me this comfortable around him. Not a guy, I mean.

So perhaps that is what made me say those stupid stupid things. I took him for granted. I thought I could cut off this thing we had. The truth is, the problem isn't in him, it is in me. It is not him who does not want anything more, it was me who was afraid of any attachment. I know damn well that being in a relationship that is more than just friendship, hurts--it is inevitable--and so I thought that it would do us both best if I walked away. No party hurt. It was over before it even started. That sounded quick and easy. And apparently very appealing. Being the absolute pompous fool that I am, I told him that I wanted some distance. I thought, why not? It is better this way. I thought, when the word 'romance' is inserted into an equation, it would just make everything complicated. I thought I did not need a mess. Because it is believed that all high school romance end tragically, eventually. Point is, I thought, WHY BOTHER? Why start something that is just bound to end? Destined to fail.

Easier said than done. Obviously. I was just too foolish to notice that. We ended up having a pretty tensed conversation. More or less, a fight. It is only then, when we were on the very edge of the cliff, that I realized I could not do it. I wanted to take my words back. I just couldn't let everything end before it even started. They say you only realize what you have after you've lost it. Fortunately, I had not lost it. Yet. Though nearly.

It's almost 2 AM in the morning, and all I can think of is this: Why do I always ruin the good things in my life? Why do I tend to break the better part of my miserable life?

I want nothing, I expect nothing, only this: I want us to be like how we were a few hours ago. Will you wink at me after today? Will you call me late at night just to talk about silly things? Will  you look for me or will I be the one pursuing after you now?

I do not care what the future holds. Who am I to say something is doomed? I am not God, not the game maker, only a pawn in this big chessboard.

I like him. Especially the way he handles things with me, a girl crazier than the craziest of girls. ;D

for it is too precious.

Believe me when I say this is for the best.

It dawned on me just recently that some things just stay no matter what you do and how hard you try to diminish them from your life. They come uninvited and unexpected, you just couldn't read the signs. No such thing as waiting for them in trepidation or fearful apprehension. There are no symptoms. Like cancer. How you welcome them in your life depends on you alone, whether you open your arms and embrace them or you push them away with all your strength. I could not have foreseen this. If only I had the ability to. If only we all had, right?

See it this way: You are walking down a maze and each turn is a leap of hope. You don't know what's lurking behind the next corner--is it a booby trap, is there a lion?--but your feet make the steps anyway. Your head is clouded by the relentless dread that there is a flimsy chance that you might not leave the maze in one piece. Nevertheless, you walk. You walk and walk, knowing there's also an equally thin sliver of hope, of chance, of luck, that you might actually make it out there. You think you would rather die trying than die waiting. That's what you think. Yes, you are right in some ways. But what if there is no way out? What if the twists and turns do not have any booby traps but this whole maze is the ultimate trap? Would you even have started walking if such possibility exists?

At the end of the day, this is my question. It is always the last thought. What if we're all just heading to a brick wall with no token at the end of the path?

take a picture of us.

HAH! I have finally found it! the perfect synonym! *random*

Chuck Bass. It's unsettling how two people--one fiction and one real--can be so similar to each other. If so, can I be Blair?

My favorite scene! <3
