The Ranting Again

"Dare me to jump?
Dare me to breathe?
Cause I am stronger than you've seen
If you're willing to wait
I'll give you your wish
Just turn your back and then you'll see"

This song was written by me a few years back when I was 12 or 13. If you can guess what it's about, you are a genius and I love you.

I have realized over the years that I'm kind of a terrible writer. Like, I'll write something and think, "Hey, this is awesome!" But then I'll read it again and again...and then it just seems stupid. Or I'll read something that someone else wrote and I'll be like, "Ehhh that's so much awesomer than mine". So I pretty much just quit writing at all anymore. But I kind of miss it. I was going through some old notebooks, where I happened to find that song, along with a few others that I wrote around that same time. I'm pretty sure I thought they were pretty good when I wrote them, but ya know. I was only 13.
I pretty much can't do anything. I'm not very talented. I can't write, I can't draw, I can't dance, I can't play sports...pretty much all I do is play instruments and sing, and I'm not even perfect at that. Oh, I make videos and nerdy junk like that too, but hardly anyone considers that a talent unless you're some YouTube sensation or something, which I am not.

Well, anyway, I'm done ranting...for now.
Oh, and here's another Blue October video, just because I can.


Now THAT is a lyrical genius right there. Says me, I don't care what you think.
Well bye.
